- The National Electoral Council announced today that it had unanimously decided not to modify the regulations for the evaluation and validation of the signatures for the request for a recall referendum. The decision closes the door on an additional source of tricks. Carrasquero said that the CNE would not change the rules in the middle of the game, but it failed to disclose why it was that the issue was even considered in the first place. In fact, the pro-Chavez forces had brought a proposal for change which was countered by a different proposal. In the end neither was approved and the regulations were left as approved before the petition drives by both sides took place. |

- Macromedia has just released an update to the Flash Player which fixes a security flaw that was discovered in connection with the local shared object. This is solved by storing persistent shared objects in unpredictable locations - I'd say this is important to know for people who are directly accessing the SO files with 3rd party software from outside for example in standalone apps. But actually that is not the only fix in this version - there are many more: The infamous String.split bug has been removed. |

- Wendy Seltzer (pointing to Ross Mayfield) quotes Verisign CEO Stratton Sclavos as saying, "We have to move the complexity back into the center of the network and remove it from the edge." As even mid-level netheads know, this is the antithesis of the Internet's design -- the Internet approach is to put intelligence at the edge of the network. Here's Wendy: Painters buy white canvases for a reason. The Internet has succeeded as a platform for innovation because its architecture does not preempt its uses; |

'Conversely, more circular giant planet orbits mean wetter terrestrial planets.' In the case of our solar system, Jupiter's orbit is slightly elliptical, which could explain why Earth is 80 percent covered by oceans rather than being bone dry or completely covered in water miles deep." |
