Thermalright Ultra-90 K8 Aluminum Heatpipe Heatsink for AMD K8

Following the XP series and the HR series comes the “Ultra” from Thermalright, Inc! The Ultra-90 takes a little bit of the features from the two previous successful series. The new Ultra-90 continues the the tradition of XP’s light & easy: light in weight and even easier to install. Now you don’t even have to remove your motherboard to install the LGA775 or K8 adapter. From the HR-series, Ultra-90 takes the tower form with 3 dual heatpipes and the capacity to cool the hottest dual-core CPU currently circulating the market, capable of cooling both AMD K8 and Intel 775. As for performance…when it’s from Thermalright, you know it’s all about performance!

Srinivas Sampath's Blog : NHibernate Intellisense in VS 2005:
Turns out that this location is different in VS 2005. The location to place schema files to enable intellisense in VS 2005 is: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Xml\Schemas. The locations and drive letter can change depending on where you installed VS 2005, but once you put in your schema here, you get full intellisense.

Wired News: The Wikipedia FAQK

Wired News: The Wikipedia FAQK:
What is Wikipedia? Wikipedia is a new paradigm in human discourse. It's a place where anyone with a browser can go, pick a subject that interests them, and without even logging in, start an argument. In fact, Wikipedia is the largest and most comprehensive collection of arguments in human history, incorporating spats and vendettas on subjects ranging from Suleiman the Magnificent to Dan the Automator. As an unexpected side effect of being the perfect argument space, it's also a pretty good place to find information about all the characters from Battlestar: Galactica.

Publican Jack Harding got the shock of his life when he received his monthly phone bill from BT demanding more than £616,000.

But if you think that's bad, spare a thought for Yahaya Wahab, a 63-year-old meat importer from Malaysia. He's just been sent a bill for 806 trillion Ringgit - about £126 trillion.

According to Malaysia's New Straits Times, he's been given 10 days to cough up or face legal action.

He told the paper: "If the company wants to seek legal action as mentioned in the letter, I'm ready to face it. In fact, I can't wait to face it."
