Xbox Challenge - Yeah, We're back and back strong!


Stay tuned, we will have a new separate client ready for continuing the Xbox Challenge. With the recent media frenzy we stopped the project to research the legal aspect before preceding any further, it seemed ok until we started receiving 75,000 unique hits per day. IRC Channel Open for Neo!

The Squares of RSA-576

For informative purposes (and because its really cool) I thought I would show you the Squares that make up RSA-576. We figured these out on Saturday.

n = 1881988129206079638386972394616504398071635633794173

n = a^2 + b^2 + c^2

a = 398017045382089878415265626948620390590002479658724153

Axl, Jacko on road to ruin


Michael Jackson and Axl Rose: both famous, both controversial, both rich -- and both, perhaps, their own worst enemies.

Not so long ago, you might not have lumped Jackson and Rose together -- their histories, their sounds and their track records for success are hugely different. But in 2002 both seemed to determined to self-destruct.

Happy birthday Jimmy Page


Jimmy Page 's incredible career spans four decades, appearing on an innumerable list of recordings. Best known for his trademark Les Pauls, double-neck guitar and riff-master deluxe, his contributions to rock history are nearly unmatched. He first picked up a guitar as a child, curiously plucking away on a Spanish acoustic given to the family.

Saskatoon Canada ??? Dutch-style marijuana cafe


Saskatoon man asks permission to set up Dutch-style marijuana cafe. Uncertainty over Canada's marijuana laws likely sparked a proposal to set up in Saskatoon a Dutch-style cafe where small amounts of marijuana can be consumed, says the city's mayor.

"I think what has prompted this is the recent discussion at the federal level with respect to cannabis possession and that sort of thing," Maddin said Wednesday.
