Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries ….
- Short Sharp Science: Don’t look away! Staring eases the pain – I’ll have to give some of these ideas a try.
- Earth economist: The food bubble is about to burst – environment – 10 February 2011 – New Scientist – When we rely, not on rainfall, but on draining aquifers faster than they are replenished, sooner or later there will be trouble.
- DreamWorks Buys J. Michael Straczynski Script ‘Voices From the Dead’ About Houdini and Arthur Conan Doyle – That sounds pretty cool …
- ‘Twilight’ Scribe Melissa Rosenberg Writing ‘Highlander’ Remake – And when they cut off others’ heads, they get really sparkly!
- Best Buy’s “Buy Back” Program Isn’t Exactly A Great Deal – Yeah … no.
- Faced with $27 billion budget deficit, Gov. Perry focuses on abortion, anti-immigration and voter ID – Don’t let your problems get in the way of my polemics!
- Bank Bailout Successful: About To Turn A Profit – The critics are silent about the specifics of TARP (with good reason), but they will continue to generalized about how the “bail-outs” cost us “zillions of taxpayer dollars,” true or not.
- Mubarak To Transfer Ruling Authority Today – Interesting, if it turned out to be true. And amusing how Obama’s being set up for blame for the whole thing.
- Dazzling ice formations on the Toronto waterfront – Very cool (no pun intended).
- I Want to Meet This Family! – Ha!
- Google Weddings Helps You Plan and Share Your Big Day – I don’t think it’s strange — I think it’s rather clever.
- Set Up Google’s Two-Step Verification Now for Seriously Enhanced Security for Your Google Account – I probably won’t be the first person to use this, but once Google gets the kinks worked out … yeah. Too much harm someone could do with my Google account info, should they guess or discover it in some fashion.
- Truth Wins Out – Cowardly American Family Association Removes Offensive Bryan Fischer Post on Native Americans – Sweet. Will the dolt now claim he’s being censored? Guess the AFA couldn’t hide behind their “disclaimer” well enough. Irksome that they also pulled down the response of the sole AFA blogger who criticized the piece of swill.
