Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries …. <\/p>\n
    \n
  1. Frank Frazetta, RIP<\/a> – Frazetta was a remarkable, even seminal artist. Ironically, I was just leafing through a book of his art at the Tattered Cover on Sunday.<\/li>\n
  2. Apple Confirms AT&T Has iPhone Exclusivity Until 2012<\/a> – Looks like I made a good choice …<\/li>\n
  3. Note to media: 40 of 111 Supreme Court justices had no prior judicial experience | Media Matters for America<\/a> – I think judicial experience is important for a Justice, but I think other experiences are also important. I wouldn’t want a SCOTUS of all non-judges, but having one or two on there, if qualified in other areas, would probably be of value.<\/li>\n
  4. 6 Absurd Gender Stereotypes (That Science Says Are True) | Cracked.com<\/a> – Though, as with most gender differences, the range within each gender carries a significant overlap with the range of the other.<\/li>\n
  5. Twitter Launches Embeddable Tweet Feature “Blackbird Pie” | Twitter blog and news<\/a> – A nice additional feature to make Tweets more usable elsewhere. I’ll be curious to see some blog tools developed around this.<\/li>\n
  6. NASA team cites new evidence that meteorites from Mars contain ancient fossils<\/a> – Science at work: examining and reexamining evidence, seeking peer review, offering up new hypotheses and explanations for observed phenomena, and considering how best to validate them. Neat.<\/li>\n
  7. The Plum Line – Shadowy Ark. group run out of Va. P.O. box<\/a> – I’m sure the conservative majority of the Supreme Court would see nothing wrong with that.<\/li>\n
  8. GOP Strategy Call: Obstruct Supreme Court Nomination to Delay Policy Debates<\/a> – Because, once more, it’s all about winning — or, in this case, delaying the other side’s winning. Nice statesmenship, yo-yos.<\/li>\n
  9. 05\/07\/2010 – TV theme songs aren\u2019t going to make it after all – STLtoday.com<\/a> – Very sad — I love TV theme songs, and miss them in the shows that don’t use them. Feh.<\/li>\n
  10. The Progressive Case For Elena Kagan<\/a> – Still reading various analyses of Kagan — but, bottom line, she’s the nominee we’ve got, and I don’t see a way for her to be rejected for someone more “progressive,” even if that were desirable.<\/li>\n
  11. Reverse Reparations<\/a> – What ever happened to, “You break it, you bought it”? Generally speaking, you only seek reparations from folks you’ve conquered; is that the new view from the Right about our stance toward Iraq? Yeah, we beat back Saddam, but it’s kind of obnoxious to free a hostage and charge him for the service.<\/li>\n
  12. Confirmation vote won’t be unanimous<\/a> – Money graf: “I guess Inhofe deserves credit for candor — most senators want to appear responsible and mature about a process like this one, anxious to hear more from the nominee and learn about his\/her qualifications and judicial skills. Members of the world’s most deliberative body generally consider this an important part of their professional duties. Inhofe can’t be bothered. Good to know.”<\/li>\n
  13. Tarantino\u2019s trademark Trunk Shot: A Compilation.<\/a><\/li>\n
  14. D&D Party, Kids\u2019 Birthday Sub-type<\/a> – This is a very cool idea.<\/li>\n
  15. Behind-the-scenes look at Disneyland\u2019s new river – Around Disney : The Orange County Register<\/a> – Nice article on reworking the “Rivers of America” at Disneyland.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
