Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries ….
- DC’s Alternate Covers Hit the ‘Fringe’ Season Finale – ComicsAlliance | Comics culture, news, humor, commentary, and reviews – I haven’t watched “Fringe” since about the 4th episode or so, but these are awesome.
- Wisdom vs. Education – SMBC May 24, 2010 – Heh.
- The original king of irony lives – “I know you are, but what am I?” Rove is shameless.
- WSJ answers Palin: GOP received ‘far more’ campaign cash from oil and gas companies than Democrats did.: Ben Armbruster
- Steele refuses to denounce Rand Paul: ‘I can’t condemn a person’s view.’ – Sure you can, Michael — if you have the cojones to do so against a someone running in your own party.
- Crybaby Muslims issue death threats over Zapiro’s Mohammed cartoon: Barry Duke
- 9GAG – Fictional plane crash gets twice as many pixels as real one – Sheesh.
- Your Weekend Was Not This Bad – And sometimes the bear gets you (or something like that).
- 5 New Scientific Studies To Interest You – I especially like the “why vs how” study.
- Five Best Personal Web Hosts [Hive Five] – Some good advice for folks looking for their own website. I’ll also give a plug to the always-helpful folks at Hosting Matters.
- Mark Twain’s autobiography to be finally published, 100 years after his death – Very cool.
- Rove Ludicrously Claims Bush White House Never Questioned Opponents’ ‘Motives’ Or Called Them Names – Remind me again why anyone expects anything Rove says to have more than a passing acquaintance with the truth?
- Wooden Peep Hole Iris Features Unsurprising “No Finger Zone” [Maker Faire] – I would love to have one of these on my front door.
- You Want Me To Invest In Christianity? Let’s Make a Trade… – Actually, I think it’s a very interesting idea — talk is cheap and pamphlets are cheaper, though that lack of expense lets the “message” go out more broadly. But if you want to show that it is that serious, making a more serious investment is a good sign (and, to be very fair, Nick here is making a serious counter-commitment, too).
- Measles? Seriously? – Anti-science woo-woo combined with fearmongering combined with economic incentives to lie in research = people DYING. Seems a pretty straightforward equation to me.
- Sarah Palin: Rand Paul Is Learning What It’s Like To Be Me – So does this mean we get to ask Sarah about whether the Civil Rights Act of 1964 should apply to businesses, too? Or would that just be more media entrapment?
- Sugary drinks and their equivalent in junk food – Wow, that’s disturbing.
