Tickle: Super IQ test

The Super IQ Test
How Smart Are You Really?

William, your Super IQ score is 131

Your overall intelligence quotient is the result of a scientifically-tested formula based on how many questions you answered correctly. But it's only part of what we learned about you from your answers on the test. We also determined the way you process information.

The way you think about things makes you a Creative Theorist. This means you are a highly intelligent, complex person. You are able to process information of nearly every kind with ease, using both creativity and analysis to make sense of the world. Compared to others you also have a very rich imagination.

How did we determine that your thinking style is that of a Creative Theorist? When we examined your test results further, we analyzed how you scored on 8 dimensions of intelligence: spatial, organizational, abstract reasoning, logical, mechanical, verbal, visual and numerical. The 3 dimensions you scored highest on combine to make you a Creative Theorist. Only 6 out of 1,000 people have this rare combination of abilities.

Don't know why they're calling me William. I hate that the names Liam! But 131 was an okay score. Did one before and was 144 so am obviously drinking far too much!

Dolphins circle bathers as shark homes in

Three schoolgirls and a lifeguard were 'saved' from being attacked by a great white shark by a ring of dolphins.

I'm Ulysses by James Joyce!

You're Ulysses by James Joyce

Most people are convinced that you don't make any sense, but compared
to what else you could say, what you're saying now makes tons of sense. What people do
understand about you is your vulgarity, which has convinced people that you are at once
brilliant and repugnant. Meanwhile you are content to wander around aimlessly, taking in
the sights and sounds of the city. What you see is vast, almost limitless, and brings you
additional fame. When no one is looking, you dream of being a Greek folk hero.

Anti-spam plan overwhelms sites

As reported earlier this week Lycos released their Make Love Not Spam screen saver which targets 'known' spam sites.

It's really a DDOS attack, and has proven too effective. Indeed now their own MLNS site isn't responding.

Whilst I hate spam and get a lot more of it than most people, I think it's a terrible idea. A DDOS uses bandwidth and we know the spammers can move on quickly and react to any changes in anti spam.

Wouldn't they be better off scanning thier users outgoing mail and stopping spam that originates from their network?
