Heed this — via the LA Times:

[June 8th, 2006 | Vienna, Austria] — Iran began to enrich a second batch of uranium in its research plant this week on the same day that world powers delivered a negotiating offer to Tehran conditioned on its suspension of nuclear activities, according to a report released Thursday by the International Atomic Energy Agency.

Whoever says there is no justice in this Universe definitely does not watch the evening news.

They Nailed the Bastard! June 8, 2006

Via MSNBC:

BAGHDAD, Iraq - Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the al-Qaida leader in Iraq who waged a bloody campaign of suicide bombings and beheadings, was killed overnight by F-16 jets dropping two 500-pound bombs, U.S. and Iraqi officials said Thursday. It was a long-sought victory in the war in Iraq.

Al-Zarqawi and seven aides, including spiritual adviser Sheik Abdul Rahman, were killed inside a building in a remote area 30 miles northeast of Baghdad, officials said.

Finally! A thousands pounds of mayhem is definitely not a bad way to send these neanderthal SOBs back to HELL! Unfortunately, this isn’t the way this war is going to be won, as Zarqawi (and bin Laden himself, for that matter) can simply replaced by someone just as sick as him — if not worse. The way to end this war — as quickly and with as little cost as possible, be it in monetary terms, or in that which is most important: our freedom and rights — is to put an end to the material means by which these anti-life thugs put their bloody, unearthly ideals into practice, i.e.: by putting an end to the existence of state-sponsors of terrorism and imperialistic Islam.

Microsoft has recently released the second beta version of Windows Vista for download “for IT professionals, developers, and technology enthusiasts”. If you are one of those, and are comfortable running beta software, you may want to take a look. Also make sure you have a computer that fits the specs of this behemoth.

UPDATE: Microsoft seems to be unable to serve the download due to high demand. You may get it here through Bittorrent.
