FractalCity Scott Teresi - Thoughts on The Matrix, and Fight Club The Matrix, and Fight Club The philosophy behind two movies which took me for a great ride by Scott Teresi www.teresi.us/writing The Matrix Warner Brothers has a great section on their official Matrix site collecting a dozen or so writings on the philosophy of The Matrix. This exciting description of the Matrix itself fits the movie exactly... but it's also describing Plato's Cave. Imagine a dark, subterranean prison in which humans are bound by their necks to a single place from infancy. From: Plato's Cave and The Matrix, by John Partidge Here's an excerpt on some of the religious connotations of the movie: At the beginning of The Matrix, a black-clad computer hacker known as Neo falls asleep in front of his computer. From: Wake Up!

Top 6 Underground Search Engines You Never Knew About Advertisement I love Google, Bing and Yahoo just as much as the next Internet user, but sometimes you really want to dig down into a particular subject. In order to do that, you really need access to those underground search engines that may not be quite as well known, but they dig much more deeply into specialized areas of the Internet than the general search engines are capable of. In many cases, these search engines are tapped into what is currently termed the “invisible web,” which is the information available on the Internet that standard search engines don’t have access to, because they are buried behind query forms or directory requests. The following 6 underground search engines that I chose are not porn sites, illegal piracy sites or anything else that could get you in trouble with the law, or with your significant other. Instead, I term the following as “underground search engines” for two reasons. Here is a search for “classical music,” with over 300 results.

Secret BitTorrent Websites - The Ones You Shouldn't Know About Some private BitTorrent sites are so secretive that members need to click hidden links to login; others run covertly behind a false ‘frontpage’ under the pretense of offering a legitimate service. Many of these trackers would be considered ‘closed communities’ and don’t have an active ‘invite system’, so it’s a futile effort for most torrenters to gain access. This is anything but an exhaustive list - there’s bound to be others and likely more that very few people even know about. Out of admiration and respect for these private trackers, we’ve omitted any URLs that can lead to unwanted exposure. Due to their secretive nature, data, screenshots & statistics are provided “as-is” and may not be current. iFi — Max.

'THE MAJESTY OF THE CIGAR' I think the detractors of the cigar often confuse it with other modes of tobacco – cigarettes and chewing tobacco. If you were raised by wolves or you play baseball, both pedigrees equally off-putting, you put in for chaw. And cigarettes are a nasty habit only acceptable in three settings: prison, the battlefield and the divorce settlement (which is a bit of both). Not one of these “conditions” rises to the celebratory level of the cigar. From the commencement celebration to the wedding reception, from the golf course to the boardroom, a cigar is the choice award for a merit won. A young man gets wheels and goes mobile, he starts with a Swisher Sweet that is little more than a tobacco candy-cane but gradually, his tastes mature and he realizes a galaxy of taste from which to indulge. So, what makes for a memorable smoke? I’ve had four experiences that stand out beyond the rest.
