NFL Week #6 -- 10:47 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

If it weren't for a dramatic and amazing Colts comeback, both Eeyore and I would have had double-digit wins last week. Oh well. Here's to week six! My stone cold lock pick of the week is that the Lions will not lose! Titans, Eagles, Colts, Dolphins, Chiefs, Saints, Bucs, Browns, Patriots, Bills, Ravens, Broncos, Seahawks, Rams.

Here's also to another Fightin' Wombats victory! My fantasy team stands at 4-1, tops in my division. I've also joined a fantasy hockey league with a team I have dubbed the Ice Chiggers. This is my first attempt at a hockey fantasy team, so we'll see how this goes.

The Master comments: Eeyore's picks for this week: Titans, Cowboys, Colts, Dolphins, Chiefs, Saints, Bucs, Browns, Giants, Bills, Ravens, Broncos, Seahawks, Rams

Linux.Ars Goodness -- 9:32 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

Ars Technica has updated their Linux.Ars page with a heaping helping of goodness. Included is a brief review of Slackware 9.1 and some lightweight window managers. They also mention an ISO of all the versions of OpenOffice 1.1.0 including some dictionaries and docs. I'm going to have to download that and burn a slew of copies to keep with me and give away to folks who think there is no life outside of MS Office.

Mozilla 1.4.1 Released -- 11:03 am CST, Update by A.T. Hun

The Mozilla team has released version 1.4.1 of their popular web browsing suite. Basically this is a bugfix release for their stable branch. You can check out the release notes and download a build for the operating system of your choice. While there isn't a direct link to the source, you can snag that too. I just rolled myself an XFT build from those very sources.

XMMS-KDE -- 6:36 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

It seems that I'm always coming across some cool little thing that makes running Linux full-time a joy. This time it is XMMS-KDE, an applet that lets you control the XMMS media player (think Winamp) via the KDE panel. It can even store your MP3s in a database that you can search by title, artist, album, or genre. Very cool and highly recommended.

As an aside, their website is pretty cool with some neat uses of cascading style sheets (CSS) that look quite nice in Mozilla.
