Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries …. <\/p>\n
    \n
  1. General Electric Responds To Twitter Distress Call, Fixes Shattered Stove<\/a> – Nice!<\/li>\n
  2. NPR Welcomes Bryan Fischer To Discuss Tea Party Politics<\/a> – I listened to the interview. While Fischer dramatically toned down his anti-gay, anti-Muslim sentiments, his basic badgering of Walker (essentially “We’re glad all the Tea Party leadership agrees with us on social conservative issues, but if they don’t, then they aren’t True Conservatives and we’ll do away with ’em”) made his basic personality and position quite clear.<\/li>\n
  3. Clouds, Birds, Moon, Venus<\/a> – Very cool.<\/li>\n
  4. Echo Park Time Travel Mart<\/a> – That’s lovely.<\/li>\n
  5. Music, when soft voices die<\/a> – RIP Edwin Newman.<\/li>\n
  6. The Meaning of the Koran – NYTimes.com<\/a> – Maybe not its “meaning,” but some interesting notes about it.<\/li>\n
  7. U.S. Debates Response to Targeted Killing Lawsuit – NYTimes.com<\/a> – Really? You can (a) declare an open hunting season on a (b) unindicted American citizen (c) anywhere in the world and (d) claim it’s all Sooper Sekrit and so not subject to review by anyone? Really? Yeah, what could possibly go wrong there?<\/li>\n
  8. Feeling the Pain of Rejection? Try Taking a Tylenol: Scientific American<\/a> – Innnnteresting.<\/li>\n
  9. Hokey Religions and Ancient Weapons Are No Match for a Good Teddy Bear by Your Side, Kid<\/a> – I have to say, the Leia one is cute …<\/li>\n
  10. D-emocrats<\/a> – While the old logos are uberpatriotic ugliness, the new one … looks like a Parking sign.<\/li>\n
  11. An app for tough decisions.<\/a> – Tempting …<\/li>\n
  12. Tip: Just the text, please!<\/a> – Good to know. Very good, in fact.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
