| Tuesday Feb 5, 2002 | Even though I should have known better,
I'd always thought you needed a full-out
clean room if you planned to
open a hard drive and have it operate again. These case modder sites
suggest
otherwise with
their clear-drive-cover projects. to Computing by gator |

| Monday Feb 4, 2002 | Back in September, experimental German composer Karlheinz
Stockhausen was accused of callously calling the World Trade Center attacks the greatest
work of art ever. Turns
out it's not so. How could we expect anything less from a man who both earned
the 2001 Polar Music Prize (along
with Robert Moog
and Burt Bacharach)
and was a cover
star on the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band album.

| Friday Feb 1, 2002 | What is Mlife? It's neither that spiritual nor that complicated. Possibly the biggest guerilla marketing campaign on the internet since AI, Mlife is Ogilvy & Mather's latest creation for AT&T Wireless. It's close at hand, so pay attention to the commercials during this Sunday's Super Bowl. That is, unless MetLife's lawyers (or these guys) have their way first.

| Despite the best intentions (and
the laws) of
every state except
Nevada,
America will be betting an estimated
$1 billion
on the upcoming Superbowl, including bets on such oddities as
the
coin
toss,
the
TV ratings, and whether
Kurt Warner will throw more touchdown passes than Mario Lemieux
will score points in his NHL All Star Game.

| Tuesday Jan 29, 2002 | Forget lame-ass Jack Chick tracts. Today's Christian youth can read comics about the evils of evolution in COLOR. But don't just take it from me, read the celebrity endorsements, including the star of The Shaggy DA. to Religion by saucy |

| It wasn't long ago that you had to read industry publications to see the movie industry's "For Your Consideration" ads touting their movies for certain awards.
Now
