I install iTunes 4.6 the other day and I go to fire up "Beethoven's Last Night" by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra however iTunes presents me with a mean message that says it thinks my music is stolen because i used hymn/playFair to decode it because the most recent version of hymn left the e-mail that was used to purchase the music embedded in the file, with the intent of preventing file-swapping, iTunes could distinguish the files that were playfaired and then nuke them. When i first googled for a fix for this issue there was nothing to be had, I had to hack-up a way to downgrade to iTunes 4.5. This was no trivial feat and required hacking some OS X internals however now there is an easier way. Thanks to Jon Lech Johansen

I just stumbled across this, someone created a series of iRaq Posters spoofing the Apple iPod print ad campaign with images of war and torture posting them all over LA. on the bottom each proclaims

10,000 Iraqis killed. 773 US soldiers dead.

rather searing, but probably good for Apple, as they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
There are four posters total two with figures holding weapons (one SAM and a AK-47-like weapon) another of the now immortal photo of the Iraqi standing in KKK-like outfit, the white lines that are usually glued to the figures ears are used in the first two images as carrying straps and in the third they are connected to the figures' figures in some kind of torture device. the fourth figure weilds this white rope like a whip, torturing some unseen innocent.

Six Feet Under was very good, the episode picks up directly after last seasons finale left off breaking a long-standing tradition in TV where time still passes in-between the end of one season and the start of another. Tonite's episode was masterfully crafted with many loose plotlines being tied up.
An article on salon.com hinted at changes upcoming in the show, one plotline that I am very happy to finally see resolved is Keith & David, for the past three years their relationship has been a nonstop battle however in the latest episode they seem to be reaching an equlibrium. This episode centered mainly on Lisa's death, her funeral and the unorthodox circumstances surrounding her death. As always the show is gritty, raw and true to it's origins unlike the The Sopranos this show seems to be getting better with age. The lastest season of the Sopranos was at best a dissapointment, at worst it was probably the end of that show. The Sopranos has created such a hype around itself and they postponed the most recent season for so damn long that in the end nothing would have been good enough.
