Other than <a href='http://www.snowman.net/'>Stephen</a> and Megan having their baby, not a lot has been going on, but I do have a big pile of interesting links.  I followed the link on <a href='http://www.linuxbrit.co.uk/'>Tom's</a> sidebar to <a href='http://boingboing.net/'>Boing Boing</a> and it's got some cool stuff on it.  Interesting news editorials are <a href='http://www.rockymountainnews.com/drmn/news_columnists/article/0,1299,DRMN_86_1655609,00.html'>here</a>, <a href='http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/g/a/2003/01/10/notes011003.DTL'>here</a>, <a href='http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&amp;u=/vv/20030117/lo_laweekly/41257'>here</a>,
<a href='http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=7308&amp;'>here</a>,
<a href='http://customwire.ap.org/dynamic/stories/D/DATA_MINING?SITE=CODEN&amp;SECTION=US'>here</a>, and <a href='http://talkingpointsmemo.com/jan0302.html#011303908am'>here</a>.  Also, I found <a href='http://www.luminary.us/russell/religionciv.html'>another</a> good Bertrand Russell essay.

Ever want to build your own emulation console? <a href='http://www.arcadecontrols.com/arcade_emulation.shtml'>Here's</a> how.  Or maybe you just want to use SNES controllers for <a href='http://www.snes9x.com/'>SNES9x</a>?  If so, then you'll want <a href='http://snespad.emulationworld.com/welcome.html'>one of these</a>.  If you're looking for an audio device that works with your existing MP3 archive, then you should check out the <a href='http://www.turtlebeach.com/site/products/audiotron/producthome.asp'>AudioTron</a>.  <a href='http://www.tomshardware.com/'>Tom's Hardware</a> has an in-depth article about the <a href='http://www6.tomshardware.com/graphic/20021118/index.html'>GeforceFX</a>.
<a href='http://crypto.stanford.edu/~eujin/sslsniffer/draft-ietf-tls-http-upgrade.html'>Here</a> is an interesting article about tunneling HTTP via <a href='http://www.ietf.org/html.charters/tls-charter.html'>TLS</a> (eg the successor to <a href='http://wp.netscape.com/eng/ssl3/draft302.txt'>SSL</a>).  The OpenSSL <a href='http://www.openssl.org/related/ssl.html'>related links page</a> also has a ton of interesting SSL and TLS info.

Finally, everyone should check out <a href='http://www.thismodernworld.com/'>Tom Tomorrow's blog</a>, and <a href='http://www.salon.com/'>Salon's</a> archive of his comic strips <a href='http://dir.salon.com/topics/tom_tomorrow/index.html'>here</a> (my favorite strip is <a href='http://www.salon.com/comics/tomo/2002/11/18/tomo/index.html'>this one</a>).
