Don't all men have explosively formed penetrators?
Yeah. That was my first joke of the morning at work. I allow myself 3 bad jokes per day. That one covered all 3. What do you think?
Seriously dude. This is some sort of sick joke. Anonymous whispers… The Iranians are aiding the craziness in Iraq because they have dun dun dun explosively formed penetrators. Of course, they don’t have any proof we can look at. Do I really need to yell with the rest of the chorus?
La la la… We Don’t Believe You

2. Josh Wolf is now the longest-incarcerated journalist in US history for refusal to turn over a collection of videos he recorded during demonstration in San Francisco.
3. New York Magazine has an excellent piece on the way we praise our children. How Not To Talk To Your Kids
But a growing body of research—and a new study from the trenches of the New York public-school system—strongly suggests it might be the other way around. Giving kids the label of “smart” does not prevent them from underperforming. It might actually be causing it.
Also, Svend had mentioned this way back when, but I loved the Independent’s article on Muslim Kids flocking to a Jewish school.
My fave part?
But what about learning Hebrew and the Jewish prayers? “I think it’s great. The more knowledge, the more understanding,” says one of the mothers. “They learn all they need about Islam at mosque school. Actually, the kids often sing Hebrew songs in the bath, which is a bit confusing because we speak Gujarati at home, but I think it’s great.”
and…
At Eid, the Muslim children are wished Eid Mubarak in assembly, and all year round, if they wish, can wear a kufi (hat). Amazingly, dozens of the Muslim children choose instead to wear the Jewish kipah.
That is all. You read any interesting articles lately? What? You want to take a break from work? Class?! This may be perfect for you! Link it and spread the word please!
