I enjoyed reading this blog comparing medieval hospital foods to current hospitals because of the way the blog was set up with examples of medieval and contemporary hospital moves. The pictures also enhanced the blog.

Interesting how this article talks about the gait analysis being used for catching terrorists, while in Little Brother, it was used to keep track of the high school students. The technology is not quite ready to be used, but seems to be much more reliable than the gait trackers in the book.

In the war over encryption between the NSA and privacy activists, at first it seemed as though the activists had won - but now it's not so clear.

I didn't do anything different! It must have appeared twice because I posted it twice.

The thing I found very interesting about this article is the discussion about ex-NBA owner Donald Sterling. Yes, his comments were horrifying, but he said things in the privacy of his home. I guess what I, and this article, are trying to say is that privacy is dead and all information is vulnerable.

I found this article and liked it because it gave me a lot of information about the Beale Cipher and treasure, even more information than Singh. I especially was interested in the reasons describing the possibility of it being real or a hoax.
