  4. -09-25-06 Clinton Reveals Anger After Deceptive ABC Mini-Series About 9/11 (MSNBC News)
      "Even Bill Clinton, who never met a camera he failed to charm, couldn't keep his rage out of public view any longer. Ever since ABC television aired its riveting but risibly fictive docudrama 'The Path to 9/11' earlier this month, former Clintonites have been seething. The miniseries had laid much of the blame for the failure to get Osama bin Laden on Clinton and his supposedly wimpy national-security team. The Bush administration, meanwhile, is portrayed mostly positively, seen gearing up to take on bin Laden when 9/11 hits."

      "The former president said his anti-bin Laden efforts had far exceeded those of the Bush administration before 9/11."

      "For the record, that is mostly true." 09-06

  5. Connecting Batteries in Series or in Parallel (Zbattery.com)
      "When connecting your batteries in Series you are doubling the voltage while maintaining the same capacity rating (amp hours). Just use a jumper wire between the negative of the first battery and the positive of the second battery. Run your negative wire off of the open connector from the first battery and your positive off of the open connector on your second battery."

      "When connecting in Parallel you are doubling the capacity (amp hours) of the battery while maintaining the voltage of one of the individual batteries. Use a jumper wire between the positives of both batteries and another jumper wire between the negatives of both batteries. Connect your positive and negative wires to the same battery to run to your application." 08-09

  6. Yankees Win World Series for 2009 (NBCSports.MSNBC.com)
      " The New York Yankees bolted from the dugout even before the last grounder was scooped up. After waiting nine years for championship No. 27, no one would dare hold them back."

      "Hideki Matsui tied a World Series record with six RBIs, Andy Pettitte won on short rest and New York beat the Philadelphia Phillies 7-3 in Game 6 on Wednesday night, finally seizing that elusive title — the most in all of sports." 11-09

  7. Planet of the Apes Series (New York Times)
      "But most of the interest of the original “Planet of the Apes” and its sequels lies in their skewed, satiric take on human nature. The apes are disconcertingly like us, and it’s fun both to imagine them as better than we are and to watch their civilization developing some very familiar discontents. They have race and class issues and a rather rigid social hierarchy: orangutans rule, gorillas enforce, and chimpanzees do most of the intellectual work — subject to the approval of the orangutans, who sit in judgment like the Académie Française or the Holy Office. The chimp scientists who try to save Taylor are accused of heresy: the orangutans and the gorillas are, to an ape, staunch creationists."

      "In the four immediate sequels — 'Beneath the Planet of the Apes' (1970), 'Escape From the Planet of the Apes' (1971), 'Conquest of the Planet of the Apes' (1972) and 'Battle for the Planet of the Apes' (1973) — the back story of humankind’s demise and the apes’ ascent gets filled in a bit, with tricky timelines." 07-11

  8. Ultralights or Ultrabooks: Samsung Series 9 (Time.com)
      "In the interest of avoiding confusion, Samsung has shied away from calling its second-generation Series 9 computers “ultrabooks” since it didn’t refer to the first generation — which launched last year before Intel birthed the ultrabook moniker – as such. But the new Series 9 looks like a duck, quacks like a duck and pretty handily out-ultrabooks most actual ultrabooks as far as thickness and weight are concerned." 01-12

  9. Windows 8 Samsung Series 5 and & Review (EnGadget.com)
      "Samsung already showed off its Series 5 Hybrid back at Computex, but what we didn't know was that Sammy had yet another tablet / laptop mash-up in the works. The company just formally announced the Series 5 and it turns out it's going to be joined by the next-gen Series 7 Slate as well. (Also known as the ATIV tabs in regions outside the US.) The two 11-inch tablets more or less look alike, except the Series 5 is powered by an Atom-based Clover Trail processor, while the Series 7 packs Core i5 guts. Both support pen input, and will come with the same S Pen apps found on the Galaxy Note 10.1. As for that optional keyboard dock, Samsung previously touted its magnetic hinge, but the dock has since been retooled with a sturdier latch-based mechanism. (Check out the video below to see it in action -- the tablet really does seem incapable of falling out.)"

      "Both tablets will arrive October 26th, the day Windows 8 starts shipping. The Series 7 will be available in one $1,119 configuration with 4GB of RAM, a 128GB SSD and the keyboard. The Series 5, meanwhile, will cost $649, and will include 2GB of RAM and a 64GB solid-state drive. If you like, you can purchase the keyboard for $100, or you can buy the two as a bundle for $749." 10-12
