- Paul Meier, Revolutionary Medical Statistician, Dies at 87 – NYTimes.com – This one’s for Margie.
- 5 Aerial Battles That Put ‘Top Gun’ To Shame | Cracked.com
- “Lone Ranger” filming shut down over budget issues – The Denver Post – I think there’s room out there for a new, epic Lone Ranger movie. I don’t think a Bruckheimer film with Johnny Depp playing Tonto (!) was going to be it. Yeesh.
