07 Two-Factor Authentication: How It Works and Why You Should Use It
It's getting increasingly risky to use online services. You store a lot of your personal data in the cloud, and your credit cards are linked to accounts on retail websites. Hackers would love to get at your data, to empty your bank account, or to access your email account, using it for spam and phishing. And if someone can pretend they are you -- steal your identity -- they can cause innumerable problems to you and your finances.

08 U.S. Department of Justice takes another shot at Apple's iPhone
The U.S. Department of Justice filed a motion on Monday asking the court to overrule a ruling in an iPhone unlocking case in New York. Last week, U.S. Magistrate Judge James Orenstein in the Eastern District of New York denied the Department of Justice's request to compel Apple to unlock an iPhone used in a drug case. So on Monday, the Department of Justice resubmitted its request, this time asking that the case be looked at by a higher court judge.

10 Quotes: Irish Proverbs for St. Patrick's Day
You've got to do your own growing,
no matter how tall your grandfather was.
A little of anything isn't worth a pin;
but a wee bit of sense is worth a lot
Don't say everything you want to say
lest you hear something you would not like to hear
If you don't want flour on your shoes, don't go into the mill.
