Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries ….

- Picture Books Languish as Parents Push ‘Big-Kid Books’ – NYTimes.com – While I’m sure there’s an element of academic paranoia on the part of parents (ignoring the difference between reading a “chapter book” to a kid and buying one for them to read), I’d say that at least as large a factor is that picture books are freaking expensive, almost prohibitively so.
- Open Left:: Leading GOP Radio Host Pushes Terrorist Attack on Any Islamic Center Built In Lower Manhattan – Well, that’s certainly … disgusting.
- Inside The Soviet’s Secret Failed Moon Program – Wow. Very cool.
- Gropec*** Lane – “Warning: This post contains repeated uses of words that many people will find offensive.” Though it’s interesting from the perspective of how acceptable language changes over time.

- They Hate Us For Our Freedom? : Dispatches from the Culture Wars – “I know that many Americans believe in ‘American exceptionalism’ but we are not granted exceptions from the most basic laws of behavior, and one of those iron laws is that when you oppress a people and commit massive violence against them, you radicalize them. And this counts for both sides. Just look at how much more radicalized we are in response to 9/11 than we were before, how we reacted with such a massive and violent retaliation — even against a country that had nothing to do with that event. But we somehow cannot bring ourselves to acknowledge that the same thing is true of other people.”
- LOL: Star Wars Jedi Bath Robe – Tempting … except there would be dire mocking from house guests.
