If you’re anything like me, and everyone who is anyone is, your life is missing only one thing. “Kyso,” you say, “I am or know a young lady over the age of eight who needs a cluncky pink box with which to do poorly imaged digital makeovers. The shittier and more expensive, the [...]

Sadly, No! delighted us all this weekend, and even after Townhall figures it out and takes it down, the gift will keep on giving. Right there on the banner are two of the most delightful links I could have asked for on subdomain.townhall.com: Blog Directory and Next Blog.

An excellent question:
Can technology create a non-hijackable plane?
By 2008, European researchers aim to bring that vision closer to reality through an ambitious security program to combat on-board threats in an industry left reeling this week by a security scare that raised the specter of September 11.
Along with extensive pilot ID verification, automatic collision avoidance, better [...]

Finally, a poster at Men’s News Daily points me to something good! I guess PBS has a special about Issac Newton, which they will assuredly put out on DVD where I can get it sometime. It’s should be pretty interesting, because they go past that apple crap and the usual “inventor-of-calc-same-position-at-Cambridge-as-Hawking” trivia and [...]

This sounds like an excellent idea:
NASA decided Saturday to schedule the launch of the shuttle Discovery for July 1, despite the concerns of some top safety officials that the space agency has not solved the problem with flaky insulating foam, which brought down the shuttle Columbia in 2003.
Public Relations 101: When launching a shuttle for [...]

Testimonial given to the creator of 10X, Biologist Winnifred Cutler, Ph.D., who co-discovered human pheromones in 1986.
Well, I did some research on the Internet. Found the Athena Institute website (www.athenainstitute.com), read everything. Well, I could see from your website, that Athena was the place. It was going to be: spend $100 or pay for a [...]

A lot of conservative Americans are hellbent on believing Iraq has a bright future under US control. And it was only a matter of time until somebody tried to fuck those people right in their stupid asses. That’s the American way, right?
BetOnIraq.com asks you to “put their money where your mouth is” by [...]

Once a year, on a nice rolling hill on the UT campus, my buddy Redbeard organizes a not-to-be-missed event: we go sledding in the summer.
Obviously, there ain’t much snow ’round these parts, so we have to get our slip-sliding jollies a new-fangled way. Redbeard and crew drummed up a genius method they’ve dubbed, [...]

Sometimes, puppies stick their noses where they shouldn’t:
Coral Springs resident Michael Rubin took the 6-month old puppy, named Jasmine, for a run with his border collie Monday morning. They were near a pond in the Heron Bay development in northwestern Coral Springs, on the edge of the Everglades, when the puppy ran about 20 yards [...]

Brilliant.

I went back to Men’s News Daily’s blog area to spend some more time with our new friend Elder George, but he’s not too terribly prolific-it’s been like a whole week and he hasn’t written anything new. Disappointed, I wandered over to the “Vox populi” catagory, where I guess everyone who posts over there [...]

Why didn’t the fundies think of this?
The Moscow Times outlines Vladimir Putin’s plan to pay women $9232 [250,000 rubles] in exchange for producing a second child:
“The state, if it is indeed interested in improving the birthrate, must support a woman who decides to have a second child,” Putin said. “It must provide her with, [...]
