Congressman Ron Paul has introduced a Bill in the House that would bar the use of evidence obtained through torture; require that federal
intelligence gathering is conducted in accordance with the Foreign
Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA); create a mechanism for
challenging presidential signing statements; repeal the Military
Commissions Act, which, among other things, denies habeas corpus to
certain detainees; prohibit kidnapping, detentions, and torture abroad;
protect journalists who publish information received from the executive
branch; and ensure that secret evidence is not used to designate
individuals or organizations with a presence in the U.S. as foreign
terrorists. It essentially undoes all the damage the Bush administration has done to the Constitution since taking office. In this day and age of Congress being inept and concerning itself with unimportant matter such as what ads are being run in the New York Times, or what some asshole on the radio said, this Bill is probably the most important legislation to come before the House in a long time. You can digitally sign and E-mail the Congress with your support for this Bill directly from this link. I urge everyone who reads this to do so.

Wired has a review: "Gamers and hardcore media hounds may still feel
left out... but we found playing music and watching movies in the new
Ubuntu to be every bit as pleasant as it is under OS X or Windows...
Wi-Fi, printing, my digital camera and even my iPod all worked
immediately after installation — no drivers or other software
required... I did have to install additional codecs to get MP3 and
Windows Media Support" Ubuntu is the perfect Linux distro to use if you're new to Linux and want to give it a shot. It's come a long way the past few years and it's shaping up quite nicely. I use it on my Laptop instead of XP or Vista, and I'd ditch Windows completely in a heartbeat if there was better support for games. It also competes with both Mac OSX and Vista in the realm of eye-candy goodness.
