Great Summer Reading

If you haven't already picked up Stieg Larsson's "The Girl" series - I highly recommend you check out "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo", "The Girl Who Played With Fire", and "The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest" - follow Mikael Blomkvist and Lisbeth Salander as they uncover ruthless sex traffickers, corporate conspiracies, and more!

I also finished an interesting novel, "Five Quarters of the Orange" by Joanne Harris, who is also the author of Chocolat. This was an interesting tale of a French country girl who inherits a restaurant along the banks of the Loire and comes to terms with her turbulent past. What's neat is that on every other page, she describes a great French recipe!

Summer just wouldn't be complete without a little fire and brimstone. In Milton's classic "Paradise Lost", reenact the "fall of man" in this 640-verse epic poem! I was able to really transport myself into his realm of hell and heaven, where battles are fought between angels and demons, and fates are constantly decided for acts that are good and evil! I also enjoyed his verses on St. Michael the Archangel.

Oracle vs. Google : Who will own Java?

"in August, Oracle sued Google over Google’s use of Java. And now the father of Java is on Google’s side. There has been a lot of speculation around that lawsuit, including the claim that Google will end up owning Java as a result of the lawsuit." (click here for more) The Oracle v. Google Complaint

The Essence of Chaos

I just completed reading "The Essence of Chaos" by Edward Lorenz. It provides great explanation of deterministic behaviour, what is chaotic behavior, bifurcations, fractals, lyapunov stability, manifolds, butterfly effect, strange attractors, and more! I highly recommend this for anyone interested in chaos!
