The Myths of Children: "The homeless children of Miami have developed an interesting and amazing belief system, which brings them hope and the ability to understand the world and the circumstances they exist in. This story, as written by Lynda Edwards for the Miami New Times gives an insightful and at times, beautiful look into the folklore and tales of the children." [kuro5hin.org]

Programming on Mac OS X -- Comment()
I'm a Fortran programmer, because I work with computational science. However, every now and then it is nice to do some graphics, and experiment with graphics-related ideas. I have been using Mathematica and Matlab for this kind of work. Recently I discovered two nice (and free) graphical programming tools for Mac OS X: ACSLogo and F-Script. I once made quite a lot of graphics with a Logo-like language, and ACSLogo seems to be a competent implementation. F-Script on the other hand provides a nice interface to the windowing environment on Mac OS X - you can experiment on the fly.
