> ***Secure Your Linux Server
> Linux is a powerful and popular operating system kernel. That popularity =
> means you might be running it even if you're not a dedicated Unix =
> administrator or high-powered programmer. That doesn't mean that =
> rock-solid security is out of your reach, though. Aaron Brazell shows =
> how to make Red Hat 9 (and other Linux distributions) much more secure =

> ***Autofilled PHP Forms
> PHP makes handling interactive web pages easy--but when you have large =
> forms to fill out, errors to handle, and lots of data to pass back and =
> forth, you can make your life easier by making PHP fill in all the form =
> values for you. Gavin Andresen shows how to make forms autopopulate from =
> PHP arrays.

> ***What Corporate Projects Should Learn from Open Source
> Many corporate projects fail to produce quality software, yet many =
> large-scale open source projects succeed, and under much more difficult =
> conditions: no budget, a geographically distributed team, and a =
> volunteer workforce, to name a few. So how do open source project teams =
> ensure success? Andrew Stellman and Jennifer Greene introduce five basic =
> principles in their new book, "Applied Software Project Management," =
> that will help any project succeed, open source or proprietary. The =
> authors detail these principles in this article.=20

> ***Getting Started with Quartz Composer
> Apple's free developer tool collection contains many overlooked gems. =
> These aren't limited to programming-specific utilities. Take Quartz =
> Composer, for example. It's a free utility that can bring new life and =
> interest to your iMovie projects. In this article, you'll learn how to =
> use your own pictures to create simple, but flashy animation.

> ***Using the MultiView and Wizard Controls in ASP.NET 2.0
> Need to collect data from Web pages? ASP.NET 2.0 makes it easy, with the =
> use of MultiView and Wizard controls. Wei-Meng Lee, author of "ASP.NET =
> 2.0: A Developer's Notebook" shows you how to take advantage of them.

> ***Zero Configuration Networking: Using the Java APIs, Part 1
> Zeroconf, also known as Bonjour and previously known as Rendezvous, =
> offers a robust system for self-networking that has been adopted by many =
> applications. With a provided Java API, now it's easy to make "Zeroconf =
> applications hop platforms. In this excerpt from Zero Configuration =
> Networking: The Definitive Guide," Stuart Cheshire and Daniel H. =
> Steinberg show how to register a service with Zeroconf.

> ***What Is Java
> Everyone knows what Java is, right? Interpreted code, applets, =
> proprietary, and slow. Wrong, wrong, wrong, and wrong. In its second =
> decade, it's time to re-evaluate Java: the language and the virtual =
> machine are going their own ways, its open source sub-community is =
> vibrant and independent, and developers are taking the best ideas from =
> other languages and frameworks and bringing them to Java. In this =
> article, ONJava editor Chris Adamson tries to reset old assumptions =
> about Java to fit modern realities.

> 	Enterprises throughout the world are confronted with exploding volumes =

> standalone series of walkthroughs and tutorials for Flash beginners =
> coming from a graphics field, Flash is covered in the context of =

> than a text-heavy approach, this graphically rich book leads you through =
> hands-on examples by illustration.
> 	*	Google: The Missing Manual =
> <http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/googletmm2>=20
> 	Sure, you know how to "Google it" when you're searching for something =

> 	*	Intermediate Perl =
> <http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/intermediateperl/index.html>

> intermediate programming in Perl. Topics include packages and =
> namespaces, references and scoping, manipulating complex data =

> <http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/mysqlspp>=20
> 	MySQL Stored Procedure Programming covers a lot of ground. The book =
> starts with a thorough introduction to stored procedures programming and =
> functions, covering the fundamentals of data types, operators, and using =
> SQL in stored procedures. You'll learn how to build and maintain stored =
> programs -- covering transactions, stored functions, and triggers -- and =
> how to call and use MySQL-based stored procedures in a variety of =
> languages, including PHP, Perl, Python, .NET, and Java. This book, =
> destined to be the bible of stored procedure development, is a resource =
> that no real MySQL programmer can afford to do without.
> 	*	Photoshop CS2 RAW <http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/photoshopraw>=20
> 	The RAW file format is the uncompressed data file captured by a digital =
> camera's electronic sensor. Because RAW files remain virtually untouched =
> by in-camera processing, working with them brings greater flexibility =
> and control to the editing process-if you know how to use them. Adobe =
> Photoshop CS2 has emerged as the best way to edit RAW images, and =
> Photoshop CS2 RAW is dedicated to working with RAW in Photoshop. This =
> comprehensive guide explores the entire RAW process, focusing =

> You'll see how to apply each practice, and what benefits you can expect. =
> Bottom line: this book will make you a better developer.
> 	*	UML 2.0 Pocket Reference <http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/uml2pr>=20
> 	Globe-trotting travelers have long resorted to handy, pocket-size =
> dictionaries as an aid to communicating across the language barrier. Dan =
> Pilone's UML 2.0 Pocket Reference is just such an aid for on-the-go =
