- Weather Report
- This is Weather Reports quintessential line-up captured live. Jaco Pastorious and Peter Erskine join Wayne Shorter and, of course, Joe Zawinul to create this masterpiece.
- Modern Lovers
This timeless masterpiece is little known, but it has inspired almost as many bands as The Modern Lovers' own inspiration -- and only slightly better known -- The Velvet Underground & Nico.
- The Redwalls
- Wow! Perhaps my 5-star rating is simply because the Redwalls are not only new and fresh (none of them older than 22!), or perhaps its because -- despite their ages -- they are able to totally capture

SecurityFocus Uncovers Mobile Safari Security Flaw
Sunday, January 27th, 2008 at 3:00 PM - by Jeff Gamet
Security research firm SecurityFocus claimed it discovered a flaw in the mobile Safari Web browser used in Apple’s iPhone. While the flaw could allow a remote attacker to cause a kernel panic on the iPhone, it appears for now that it does not allow for remote code execution.
SecurityFocus commented "Attackers can exploit this issue by enticing an unsuspecting user to view a maliciously crafted webpage. Successful attacks cause a kernel panic, crashing the device. Given the nature of this issue, remote code execution may also be possible, but this has not been confirmed."
The group stated that the flaw was discovered in iPhone Software version 1.1.2, but could be present in other versions of the iPhone software, including version 1.1.3.
Currently there are no known instances of the security flaw being exploited in the wild.
