WOW!
and
WOW!
Excuse me, did I just say WOW!
Maybe I’m just WAY, WAY out of the loop, but I had no idea this was in the offing. I’m of two minds about prior ownership. On one hand, they delivered the home team from it’s losing ways to an unimaginable championship. On the other, they claim poverty, won’t…
I’m kicking myself for not saving an article written by an AP military writer sometime in the last week. The article discusses the author’s feelings that progress is being made in Iraq. A re-reading would make me more comfortable characterizing the article, but I’ll give it a shot anyway. From what I recall, the basis for this position was increasing cooperation from locals in…
There was an interesting item on Slate’s Human Nature page this morning. It described recent research which suggested “Baby Einstein” was bad for babies:

On the bright side, I saw something on…
I’ve been playing around with Shiira this weekend, a Mac browser with a few interesting features. As an alternative to tabs, you can have what looks like a drawer of screen previews at the bottom of the page. You can also have a floating, black, partially transparent bookmarks window, which is pretty cool on a widescreen setup.
