So the morons who picket soldier funerals with their “God Hates America” signs decided to take it on the road to ComicCon this year. Go figure, the comic nerds found out in advance and counter-demonstrated. Hilarity ensued. Enjoy. Here’s my favorite photo from the counter-demonstration:
Interesting if brief article in NYTimes today about how F1 teams are using remote telemetry (like back at the factories in England) to determine how the race cars are running and should be tuned for the races. Enjoy:

When Rolling Stone bodyslams Obama about the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, that’s when you know the honeymoon is over.
On top of which, the reporting contained therein is top-notch. Kudos to RS for getting this in print.
And God help us if we elect Sarah Palin. Oh Lord, please no.
His Imperial Majesty is most displeased that this Kagan peon would dare to think that his subjects would entitled to “fair use”. OUTRAGE!
I don’t think the market’s big dump yesterday was due to high-volume trading, nor was it due to human error on some fat-fingered mis-order.
I think it was Chinese hax0rz.
If I disappear, you know why.
Not really. Never met one. I bet I probably would though.
Seems everyone else hates Arizona Nazis right now, which is to say all the conservatives who voted for SB 1070 and Jan Brewer.
Interesting Op-ed in the NYT argues that Arizona had good reason to do this, and that the screaming masses of morons that publicly find it unconstitutional, or just “misguided” or “deeply troubling” (which is actually in the new Model Rules of Civil Procedure) are grandstanding.
