Wounded British soldier gets lawsuit for
Christmas?!
12/23/2003 10:44 AM Wounded British soldier gets lawsuit for
Christmas?! Thankfully not.
Alan Tudball was supposed to marry
his fiance Claire McCombe in April of this year, but unfortunately
Iraq -- and
frie
ndly fire from two U.S.
A-10
tankbusters (video) -- spoiled the wedding plans. Tudball would
have died if not for brave
Christopher Finney, who rescued the
grievously wounded Tudball, even as the U.S. planes circled around for
another strafing run.
The
M.O.D. refused to pay the
wedding's cancellation fee, and the
Leasowe Castle Hotel -- not
knowing of Tudball's circumstances -- initiated a lawsuit, but after
media attention and several concerned phone calls (mine included), I
am pleased to announce that the management of the Leasowe Castle Hotel
has announced that they are not only dropping the lawsuit, but that
they will host the wedding of Mr. Alan Tudball and Miss Claire McCombe
free of charge. It's worth noting that when our leaders seem to only
be capable of serving up plastic turkeys, the action of ordinary
people working together can still bring about honest-to-goodness
Christmas miracles.

Bolt, Beranek & Newman (BBN) Reborn.
The Boston Globe reports today on the spinout of
BBN, an institution behind the birth and growth of the Internet,
and the history of computing generally. General Catalyst, Accel
Partners and the BBN Technologies management team acquired the company
from it's corporate parent, Verizon.
BBN employ's hundreds of world renowned scientists focused on
fundamental research in communications and software technology.
Just as its work in the 1960s and 1970s helped give birth to things
like TCP/IP, email, and IP routing, their current advanced research is
pushing the limits of wireless computing, voice computing, distributed
systems and networking, security technology and quantum
computing. Unlike other technology "think-tanks" (e.g. Xerox
Parc), all of BBN's technology research is applied, mostly developed
(like in the 60's and 70's) on contract from the US federal
government.
Part of the mission of the "New BBN" is to more directly apply it's
innovations in the commercial world. As a member of the General
Catalyst team, it will be exciting to work with this brilliant group
of innovators.

process children for a livelihood.... If I demanded you give up your
television to an anonymous, itinerant repairman who needed work
you’d think I was crazy; if I came with a policeman who forced you
to pay that repairman even after he broke your set, you would be
outraged. Why are you so docile when you give up your child to a

Argosy Magazine reborn
12/21/2003 07:06 PMArgosy Magazine got a nice write-up in the Birmingham News. Charlie
Stross and I just turned in a novella for the next ish of Argosy, a
sequel to
Jury Service, called "Appeals
Court." Argosy is publishing both stories together in a perfect-bound
package, as a fix-up novel called "Rapture of the Nerds."
The original Argosy ran from 1896 to 1943, publishing stories by
authors as noted as fantasist Edgar Rice Burroughs, Western author
Louis L'Amour and mystery writer Dashiell Hammett. One of the first
pulp fiction magazines, Argosy crossed genre boundaries before those
boundaries were sharply defined...
The first issue, which came out in November, featured contemporary
fantasy by Jeffrey Ford; suspense by Ann Cummins; a science
fiction/horror story by Caitlin R. Kiernan; mystery by Barry Baldwin;
an interview of groundbreaking science fiction author Samuel R. Delany
by author Adam Roberts; a history of Argosy by Rick Klaw; and science
fiction by Benjamin Rosenbaum.
Each issue includes a separately bound novella, with both volumes
packaged in a single slipcase. The first issue's novella, "The Mystery
of the Texas Twister" (an alternate-history Western with
"undercurrents of political satire," Anders said), was written by
famed fantasy author Michael Moorcock and illustrated by Jon Foster.

Nokia PDA Rumors: Psion Revo Reborn?
Nokia PDA Rumors: Psion Revo Reborn?
07/07/2004 11:33 AM
First of all, no,
that's not a picture of the new rumored Nokia PDA -- that's the 'Thor'
concept from Psion, circa 2000 or so. Psion, who developed the
operating system that eventually became what is now known as Symbian,
made a bunch of really excellent PDAs throughout the '90s, most
notable for their top-notch keyboards and clamshell form factors (the
Psion Revo remains a highlight).
So now The Inquirer is reporting rumors that a new PDA is in the
works from Nokia -- supposedly called the 9800, or possibly (and in
many ways more likely) the 9580 -- that will have a large qwerty
keyboard, Bluetooth, a 640 x 240 display, a camera, an MP3 player, and
-- this is the kicker -- no phone capabilities.
Find out what why you want this after the jump.
