8 hours ago - Link

China Arnold, 28, intentionally put her baby in the microwave oven and cooked the child to death after a fight with her boyfriend. Arnolds' cellmate testified that Arnold confessed to putting the baby in the microwave and turned it on because she was worried her boyfriend would leave her if he found out the child wasn't his. - Mitchell Tsai

New Orleans plans to begin evacuations 65 hours before the expected arrival of tropical-force winds. Private relief agencies were preparing to deliver water, showers, chain-saw teams and mobile kitchens with a capacity to serve 300,000 to 400,000 meals a day. - Mitchell Tsai via Bookmarklet

Of those 350 miles of levees and floodwalls, about 220 miles have been repaired, heightened or strengthened in the past three years. Congress authorized a total of $12.8 billion to rebuild levees and floodwalls damaged by Katrina. But only $3 billion has been spent. The remaining amount includes $7.6 billion that Congress provided this year. - Mitchell Tsai

Revealed: The Internet's Biggest Security Hole [Wired - 8/26/08]

Christopher Perry, Jack Wilson and Tim Hoeck liked this

The tactic exploits the internet routing protocol BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) to let an attacker surreptitiously monitor unencrypted internet traffic anywhere in the world, and even modify it before it reaches its destination. - Mitchell Tsai via Bookmarklet

Peiter "Mudge" Zatko, noted computer security expert and former member of the L0pht hacking group, who testified to Congress in 1998 that he could bring down the internet in 30 minutes using a similar BGP attack, and disclosed privately to government agents how BGP could also be exploited to eavesdrop. "I went around screaming my head about this about ten or twelve years ago.... We described this to intelligence agencies and to the National Security Council, in detail." - Mitchell Tsai

Me: Internet routing is so trust-based (from a different age). I'm very surprised that no one has used these obvious attacks during 1991-2008 to take down the internet more often. In 1991, I probably would have bet that the public would have shifted to more secure routing by 2000. Probably, however, the unexpected growth of the internet has made router-upgrades cost-prohibitive. - Mitchell Tsai

Unusual Stone Bathroom Design by Bigelli Marmi - Leonardo design is inspired by water vortex [Trendir - 8/27/08]

yesterday at 3:28 pm - via Bookmarklet - Link

A stone bathroom design that really stands out from the crowd: the unusual Leonardo collection is by Bigelli Marmi http://www.bigellimarmi.it/ing.... A range that effortlessly accomplishes a look that is both minimalist and elegant, the Leonardo pieces are each carved from a solid block of stone. - Mitchell Tsai via Bookmarklet

The designer, Franco Poli, describes the shape as a ‘water vortex’. Each piece resembles a funnel, flaring at the top and then narrowing beneath (this shape being most pronounced in the stunning free-standing basin, and repeated in each other piece to varying degrees). - Mitchell Tsai

ater sweeps down the void and reminds us of that stone and water are ancient natural elements that have existed since time began. Stone holds warmth and is thus a fantastic material for bathtubs. Available in naturally occurring, calming shades of stone, like the cream and biscuit colour pictured here, the Leonardo bathroom collection is by Bigelli Marmi http://www.bigellimarmi.it - Mitchell Tsai

Read "Online Tool that Determines the Solar Potential of Your Roof" [Freshome - 8/28/08] http://freshome.com/2008/08/28... - Mitchell Tsai

Ever wonder what potential your roof has for solar power generation ? To answer this question now there is a website ( Roofray http://roofray.com) that is looking to help answer all of those queries using satellite data and a hands-on web site. Basically it’s a solar clearinghouse that uses Google satellite data and info from the National Renewable Energy Labs to help users make good decisions about what sort of system to buy. - Mitchell Tsai

Here’s how it works: enter an address, pull up the satellite image of the chosen building’s rooftop and then using the RoofRay http://roofray.com tool based on Google maps, draw your solar arrays ( YouTube video attached). Data on square footage of the system, slope of the roof, power per square foot and total peak power all show up in a chart, and the info displayed depends on how big you’ve drawn your system. - Mitchell Tsai

That is a great tool. - Russellreno

For those seeking absolute minimalist style, this sink with patented ‘Horizontal Integrated Siphon’ technology (basically a horizontal drain) from Axolute will revolutionise your bathroom design. The stunning polished stainless sink features the HIS system, which replaces the traditional drain pipe usually visible underneath basins. - Mitchell Tsai via Bookmarklet

Instead, the water flows along the slot of the front of the basin and back into the wall connection – a clever, neat solution. - Mitchell Tsai

The new washbasins T4, SP11, R52, and F7.5 are all made with the HIS system and introduced by Italian company Axolute at FuoriSalone 2008. The lack of pipes underneath makes these designs particularly effective when mounted by themselves, as well as highly convenient to be fitted over a vanity unit. Experience the simplicity and refined style of these new sinks – contact Axolute http://axolutedesign.com/ - Mitchell Tsai

What happens when something gets stuck in the drain? - Jesse Stay

New Orleans on evacuation alert as it prepares for another hurricane [Telegraph - 8/28/08]

Anna Haro liked this

The mayor of New Orleans has admitted its protective ring of levees has not been fully strengthened as the city braced itself for another major hurricane. - Mitchell Tsai

There was also an $800 million budget shortfall to complete the city's damaged water and sewage systems, [Ray Nagin] said. - Mitchell Tsai

Although the Army Corps of Engineers has spent billions of dollars improving the levee system, the new flood walls have not been tested given the quiet hurricane seasons of 2006 and 2007. - Mitchell Tsai

The strengthened system will protect against a 30-year storm, said Robert Turner Jr., the regional levee director. But Katrina was a 396-year storm. - Mitchell Tsai

Officials are taking no chances. A mandatory evacuation order will be issued if a Category three or stronger hurricane comes within 60 hours of the city and transport will be laid on to get people out of the city. - Mitchell Tsai

The Federal Emergency Management Agency, heavily criticised over its slow response to Katrina, said it had moved 2.4 million litres of water in 137 lorries, four million meals in 203 lorries, 478 electric generators and 267 lorry-loads of blankets into position to distribute in the Gulf Coast states. - Mitchell Tsai

If they come, the winds will blow through a much emptier New Orleans. The city's population is estimated at 325,000, two-thirds the size that it was before Katrina. - Mitchell Tsai

In the Lower 9th Ward, the worst affected neighbourhood, the population is only 11 per cent of its pre-Katrina level. - Mitchell Tsai
