== DEFCON 17 ==

[http://www.defcon.org DefCON 17] will run from July 30 - Aug 2nd this year at the [http://www.rivierahotel.com Riviera Hotel] in Las Vegas.  Although rooms are being advertised at $89/night, at this time a call to hotel reservation line shows that the Riviera is nearly full-up and that there are very few rooms left at that price.
