Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries …. <\/p>\n
    \n
  1. What Kind of \u201cDoctor\u201d Is Marcus Bachmann?: William<\/a><\/li>\n
  2. Man Loses Driver\u2019s License<\/a> – See, it’s problems like this they never mention when they’re selling soup-to-nuts big shiny govermental databases to the government (or the government to the taxpayers).<\/li>\n
  3. DC Women Kicking Ass – Action Comics #1: the real cover<\/a> – See, this is what’s killing me about the DCnU relaunch … it’s just sort of willy-nilly changing stuff, even big stuff, even big, recent stuff.<\/li>\n
  4. Borders Closer to Folding<\/a><\/li>\n
  5. Murdoch family divided as UK opposition leader calls News Corp dismantling<\/a> – While I’m pleased by the karma that has all this crap raining down on Murdoch’s head, I worry a bit about some of the actions being used by hostile pols against less egregious businesses they don’t like. Let’s be clearly legal and aware of precedent, please.<\/li>\n
  6. Racism and Jingoism among U.S. Soccer Fans<\/a> – What a bunch of assholes.<\/li>\n
  7. Middle-Man and the Debt Ceiling Debacle<\/a> – SIGH<\/b><\/li>\n
  8. Kiki or bouba? In search of language’s missing link<\/a> – Words mean things, it seems … even when they’re meaningless.<\/li>\n
  9. Republicans Backing A Balanced Budget Amendment Refuse To Say How They\u2019d Balance The Budget<\/a> – It’s unclear whether they don’t have any idea what they’d cut, or that they have a very good idea but realize that it would be politically unpalatable.<\/li>\n
  10. The Richard Cordray Filibuster Begins<\/a> – So Obama caves to those who oppose Warren, only to discover they’ll oppose pretty much anyone he nominates. Quel surprise!<\/li>\n
  11. 18 Democratic House Members Join GOP To Entrench Corporate Money In Elections<\/a> – “Transparency is the enemy of corruption.”<\/li>\n
  12. Velcro<\/a> – Cool.<\/li>\n
  13. Gene Robinson: “Christians Should Stay Away From Spiritual Arrogance”<\/a> – Yup.<\/li>\n
  14. Locking Up Immigrants and Throwing Away the Key<\/a> – It sure seems that “due process” is a dirty word among some groups.<\/li>\n
  15. What Happens When We \u201cDangerize\u201d Childhood<\/a> – Humans just aren’t very good at risk analysis.<\/li>\n
  16. Cosmopolitan Magazine 1896 \u2013 1976<\/a> – Interesting, watching the changes in cover design and content over the decades.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
