Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries …. <\/p>\n
    \n
  1. New Chrome beta takes the speed crown<\/a> – I’m experimenting with running Chrome as my primary browser at work, rather than Firefox. The results have been mixed, but it’s good to see New Stuff is just around the corner.<\/li>\n
  2. Report blames IT for bad procedures in school “spying” case<\/a> – A nice job of a not-very-independent investigator letting the district throw IT under the bus. Not that the IT folks don’t deserve it, but they’re not the only ones.<\/li>\n
  3. \u201cOathkeeper\u201d Arrested; Was Driving To Tennessee To Takeover Courthouse And Make Citizen\u2019s Arrests<\/a> – Crikey.<\/li>\n
  4. Pakistan Taliban Denies Involvement In Times Square Bomb Attempt<\/a> – Unspoken: “Plus he was probably the most incompetent bomb-maker on record, and we want nothing to officially do with him …”<\/li>\n
  5. 20 best free Android apps | News | TechRadar UK<\/a> – Making a note …<\/li>\n
  6. After being disinvited from the Pentagon\u2019s prayer service, Graham prays outside in the parking lot.<\/a> – Why does Graham feel he can only “officially” pray for his son and the other troops if he does it in a conference room in the Pentagon?<\/li>\n
  7. Fox News Host Takes Down Rove\u2019s Claim That Obama Administration Didn\u2019t Respond Fast Enough To Oil Spill<\/a> – That some of the pundits and media on the Right who have been this vigorous in defending the Obama Administration’s response is remarkable. In fact, the paranoid in me is waiting for the other shoe to drop.<\/li>\n
  8. When The Right Starts Warning About Dominionism, Pay Attention<\/a> – If nothing else, it’s worth noting that not all Christians (even on the far Right) have the same view of the “End Times.”<\/li>\n
  9. ‘Good government doesn’t include the word ‘secret’ in the phrase’<\/a> – A shame too many lawmakers don’t have the gonads to stand for their positions, and instead operate in secrecy.<\/li>\n
  10. mental_floss Blog \u00bb Spell It Out: 16 Abbreviated Company Names Explained<\/a><\/li>\n
  11. Futurity.org \u2013 How dark chocolate protects the brain<\/a> – None of that milk chocolate crap — dark chocolate FTW!<\/li>\n
  12. Neanderthal genome reveals interbreeding with humans – life – 06 May 2010 – New Scientist<\/a> – Save this one for your racist friends — genomes of all humans except for those in sub-Saharan Africa show Neanderthal genes. Yup, who’s got the “pure” bloodline now, cracker?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
