Out of the Blue

We're battening down the hatches here as we look forward to another visit from the little BlueMunchkins, as our crack babysitting skills are being called into action again this weekend. This will be an extended trip compared with their previous visits, as we will have them from tomorrow afternoon through sometime Monday. I just hope the weather holds out, since a rainy weekend like last time around will be that much harder to work around with twice as much time to kill.

Play Time: Motherload. Thanks Tannon.
Stories of the Day: Hot Wheels.
'Bogus' film credits under attack.
Bratz Topples Barbie in Battle of the Dolls.
Science!: Anyone for Collagen Soup?
Killer flu recreated in the lab.
Device translates spoken Japanese and English.
Follow-ups: 'Team America' cuts puppet sex.
'No experiments' for SpaceShipOne.
Budding space tourism industry faces regulations hurdle.
Thanks Mike Martinez.

What browser are you using, IE or Firefox? I'd definitely recommend Firefox if you've never used it.

As for the reboot, make sure that you have turned off the automatic reboot on failure function. Control Panel -> System -> Advanced (tab) -> Startup and Recovery -> Automatically Restart checkbox. This should allow you to actually see the error message that XP returns.

SP2 seems to be okay on my two home PCs.


EDIT: the current fascination with space travel reminds of the early airplane revolution, individual efforts in competitions and racing which eventually turned into the creation of the big commercial manufacturers. May I live to see the day that commercial space travel is realised.
