CNN is reporting late Wednesday night that President-elect Barack Obama wants Arizona Gov. Janet Napolitano to head the Department of Homeland Security. In Arizona political circles, talk has been building since before the election about what Napolitano might do in an Obama administration -- she endorsed Obama early, though she wasn't able to deliver Arizona in the state's Feb. 5 primary. Some people in Phoenix had speculated that Napolitano might be up for consideration as ...

Es paradójico que, a la hora de defender las bondades de su sistema, Zimmerman lo promociona como una medida capaz de garantizar los derechos y las libertades. En su página 'web', en este sentido, incluye presuntos testimonios de personas que han sido perseguidas por regímenes totalitarios en Europa central o en países del Este que se han servido del 'PGP' para luchar contra la opresión. Sin embargo, Zimmermann no menciona los grupos terroristas que emplean ...

Live-streaming platform Justin.tv now supports high-resolution videos using H.264 encoding. The codec, which has made headway in consumer electronics, is also a great format for the Web since it can fit high resolutions in relatively small file sizes--making it ideal for something like streaming. For now there are a few caveats that keep it from being accessible to the average user. For one, videos streamed in high resolution H.264 will not be saved into user ...

I went out last night around 1 am to take photos of the celebrations happening in Union Square. At the last minute I downloaded a voice recorder app for my iPhone and hit record as soon as I stepped out the door. I recorded the entire next half hour of shooting photos and talking to people in and around Union Square and I think it does a pretty good job of capturing the mood. Think ...

Photo credit: Eric (a.k.a. Hervé)… That’s right,I didn’t vote for Obama, but he is my President now. Well, he will be after inauguration. Why do I feel the need to say this? Think back to the comments made after Bush’s victories. The, ” he’s not MY president,” comments. Well, just as those comments were wrong and divisive then, they are just as wrong and divisive now. We now have to come together behind our President. ...

"A memorable day. We do not know yet for what. Perhaps for the disintegration of the country, perhaps for another proof that the North is timid and mercenary, perhaps for demonstration that Southern bluster is worthless. We cannot tell yet what historical lesson the event of November 6, 1860, will teach, but the lesson cannot fail to be weighty."~diary entry from a New York supporter of Abraham LincolnWe've been hearing the Kennedy comparisons, but I'm ...
