Star Trek: First Contact (1996) - Memorable quotes
The line must be drawn here! This far, no further! And *I* will make them pay for what they've done.
VB's (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veronica_Belmont) T-shirt ( http://www.flickr.com/photos/earlysound/5042055785 ) made me think of one of my all time favorite lines from Star Trek. Classic.
Skype Spam/Phishing
When you get texted in skype by a contact not in your contacts list and it is obvious a spam/malware/phishing attack, simply block them and check "Report abuse from this person". Hopefully, Skype will be able to block this contact from duping anyone else.

Mint.com has been a financial life saver for me. I can finally track where all my money goes and set a budget that I can follow! However, since its been acquired by Intuit, quality of service has been a little erratic. For example, a week went by before they resolved a problem with sync'ing with my bank. Its hard to fault a free service like this, but there are some things even a free service should not fail on - security. For Facebook issue, it just looks like Mint's third party promotional partner did not follow protocol with Facebook. I spent last evening changing all my account passwords for fear of a real phishing attack had occured. Regardless, Mint *should* be all over this doing damage control. BTW, Mint, get your act together and charge me for a "Pro account." I'll pay!
Rally to Restore Sanity
This is awesome. I hope he has a great turn out. I honestly don't think I can make it, because, like he said reasonable people have work (or are looking for work) and families to care for. Never the less, I hope it gets some attention and makes people think a bit. If we DON'T take it down a notch, America is going to tear itself apart. We all have differences, but its the machinery at work that is fanning the flames beyond reason.
