>> How victim snared ID thief: She chased down woman who had given her 6 months of hell <<
This is an amazing story. Imagine having your identity stolen. Imagine the culprit making off with thousands of dollars and sending you into a bureaucratic nightmare. Imagine stumbling onto the identity thief in the local Starbucks and then chasing her down on foot. Wow. Most victims are not so fortunate.
>> Putting energy hogs in the home on a strict low-power diet <<
From the New York Times: “The power consumed by common electric devices — even when they’re not in use — can quickly add up.” This reminds me of my review of the Kill-a-Watt electricity usage monitor. [via Amy Jo]

Just as a tip, if you want to make sure a newer version of a file (css, image, javascript, whatever) is seen by reader’s browsers as having changed, append a question mark followed by some unique string for that version of the file (like the date of the last update).

Since the browsers haven’t ever downloaded that exact URL before, an old version won’t be fetched from the cache. Once the new URL (with the ?string part) is fetched, it will be cached as usual. Whenever you update that file again, just modify the ?string part of the URL to make browsers get the latest copy.
This method is easier than changing file names, or making users clear their caches. Hope it helps.

The ID theft story was really interesting but in the end a big bummer. Its sad that this woman who ruined the credit of another woman only received probation.
