Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries …. <\/p>\n
    \n
  1. \u2018Seeing through Touch\u2019 c.1913-1926<\/a> – Very cool.<\/li>\n
  2. Biden: Tea party ‘terrorists’ – POLITICO.com<\/a> – With whom, I guess, we now negotiate.<\/li>\n
  3. White House Reaching Out to Liberals – George E. Condon Jr. – NationalJournal.com<\/a> – So libs\/dems\/progressives are just mistaken because they’re reacting to an incomplete understanding of what the deal was. Which is whose fault, precisely? Plus, not assuaged by parallel comment that, well, obviously “everyone” agrees we need to get the deficit in order; no, produce jobs and eliminate Bush tax cuts and the deficit will be easily managed.<\/li>\n
  4. Most of Newt Gingrich’s Twitter Followers Are Fake<\/a> – Stay classy, Newt!<\/li>\n
  5. AFP Wisconsin ballots have late return date – David Catanese – POLITICO.com<\/a> – More evil from David Koch and the AFP. I’d suggest there ought to be a law, but given the nature of the state government in Wisconsin, I doubt it would be enforced.<\/li>\n
  6. Frontier Airlines set to restructure, move to Denver – The Denver Post<\/a> – Hmmm. I’d feel better if it weren’t because of further financial problems.<\/li>\n
  7. The Fine Print on the Debt Deal – NYTimes.com<\/a> – I don’t know that I would give it a C-, but it’s probably better than an F+. Of more concern, to my mind is the long-range process damage to future governance.<\/li>\n
  8. GPS has scientists reconsidering assumptions about animals’ range, habitat – The Denver Post<\/a> – Wow — that’s remarkable.<\/li>\n
  9. Solway: The left makes the right violent<\/a> – Disgusting.<\/li>\n
  10. Auraria West Station Area Infrastructure Reconfiguration \u00ab DenverUrbanism Blog<\/a> – I ride past the CPV\/Central junction every day I commute into downtown, so it’s interesting to see the details (like where the West Line is tying in) that I was unaware of.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
