Christmas Edition of Security Now


I would like to recommend your listening to The Christmas edition of "Security Now."  This edition is not about security.  It is a story Steve Gibson, a software engineer, tells about an incident which occurred while he was in high school and 16 years of age.  It is very entertaining and made me laugh heartily.    He and Leo are geeks.  Steve more than Leo.  The link is to Leo's Twit.TV.  It is an encouragement to parents who are raising bright and maybe a little geeky children.  It is child friendly.  There are those people in our schools and I met some while working at Mansfield Schools. 
Incidentally, if you just can't stop listening, listen to Amber MacArthur with Leo in a podcast titled "Net at Night".  Amber is the person from Ontario, Canada who is inspiring me with ways to promote my business on the web.  Happy Holidays and best wishes for 2011!

Rock and Crystals

Crystal growth within rock
This is another rock I bought from Pam and Dan.  I chose to put it into the rock tumbler since the crystals were protected inside.  Pam told me later that the crystals might get a film on them from the tumbler which would need to be removed to restore their luster.  This one went through only the first stage.  I did not think they looked too badly after only one stage.  Pam suggested that I use wood bleach to clean them.  I just got some at the hardware stove and intend to try it when I have time.  This might be part of a geode, I am not sure.

I am hoping that I can take this rock with me to Lowe-Volk on January 15th to learn what it is.

Biblical Prophecy?

For those of you interested in Biblical Prophecy, you should probably listen to Steve Gibson talk about  Tag Me (with RFID)I had been unaware of this new or maybe not so new technology.  In my younger years, I studied a little Biblical Prophecy.  Revelation 13:16 He causes all, the small and the great, the rich and the poor, and the free and the slave, to be given marks on their right hands, or on their foreheads:  It seems to me that at the time Hal Lindsey thought that it somehow related to the "mark of the beast" as discussed in Revelation 13, 14, 17,. and 20.  I really do not know but when I listened to Steve discuss RFID, Radio Frequency Identity, I had this eerie feeling.  He even mentioned possibly putting it in the forehead.  Steve is talking about where on his body he would like this chip embedded and what it should have in it, hardware and software wise.  He says his front door could open for him and his car could recognize him if he had it.  He says that there are enthusiasts out there doing this currently.  I probably should not even mention this but I did.  Let me know what you think.
