A Penguin Ten Years Old
Peter Salus
A few weeks ago, I pointed to August 1969 as the "birthmonth" of UNIX. A few days after that birth, the ARPAnet (soon to become the Internet) was born. And, on 28 December 1969, Linus Torvalds was born.

Book Review: Mapping Security : The Corporate Security Sourcebook for Today's Global Economy
Ben Rothke
Creating an effective information security infrastructure for a large multi-national company is a challenge. Above and beyond the technology, the software, and the hardware, there are non-tangibles, specificially the cultures and laws where the security solutions, people, and technology will be deployed. Deploying technology without considering the local environment and culture is a sure-fire way to undermine a project.

Shell Corner: analyze-postings
Ed Schaefer
As an instructor for the University of Phoenix Online, I not only work with Netnews groups for my personal interests, but professionally, too. While it’s not hard to find a Netnews reader (most email programs seem to include NNTP compatibility nowadays), it’s not very easy to do any sort of analysis of news postings, which is exactly what I need to do for my classes.
I need to be able to calculate two things: total number of postings in a given period of time, and number of days during that period that there were postings. For example, if we talked about the first week of September, that’s a 7-day period, during which time a given student could post an arbitrary number of articles on any of 0-7 days.
