Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries …. <\/p>\n
    \n
  1. Gary Cass’ One-Sided Definition of Anti-Christian Defamation<\/a> – Attacking an opponent’s faith for me, but not for thee!<\/li>\n
  2. Report: U.S. transportation system failing<\/a> – But heaven forbid we actually spend MONEY and do something about it.<\/li>\n
  3. Exclusive: Foreign-Funded \u2018U.S.\u2019 Chamber Of Commerce Running Partisan Attack Ads<\/a> – The best election money can try to buy.<\/li>\n
  4. Rumor: Microsoft making a play for Linden Lab<\/a> – I’m not a Second Life person, but this sure seems … odd.<\/li>\n
  5. A good month to be living for the weekend<\/a><\/li>\n
  6. Comic Strip \u201cGet Fuzzy\u201d Tackles Pseudoscience with the \u201cBig Bonk\u201d Theory<\/a> – I love “Get Fuzzy.”<\/li>\n
  7. Pau Krugman – Fear and Favor – NYTimes.com<\/a> – “Every major contender for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination who isn\u2019t currently holding office and isn\u2019t named Mitt Romney is now a paid contributor to Fox News. Now, media moguls have often promoted the careers and campaigns of politicians they believe will serve their interests. But directly cutting checks to political favorites takes it to a whole new level of blatancy.”<\/li>\n
  8. Sky Marshals to lose their cushy first-class seats?<\/a> – So there are reasons to have Sky Marshals in Coach, and reasons to have them in First\/Business Class. So let’s just go ahead and (taking into account health issues as well for such frequent fliers) mix it up, and not let the prospective terrorists know where they are?<\/li>\n
  9. Topsy Turvy<\/a> – Um, regardless of how one feels on the topic, that’s a REALLY bad\/misleading graph. Indeed, discrediting to the entire proposal.<\/li>\n
  10. Avatar producer explains how to market to kids despite PG-13 rating<\/a> – Using McDonald’s as your “moral compass” — yeah, what could go wrong there?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
