Some people have questioned whether the photo below (of a woman burning a US flag in front of Palestinian children) really is Rachel Corrie; here’s the proof, in another picture of her little hate party for the kiddies:

Rachel Corrie, 23, from Olympia, Wash., a member of the ‘International Solidarity Movement,’ burns a mock U.S. flag during a rally in the southern Gaza Strip town of Rafah in this Feb. 15, 2003 file photo.

Been working with a new torch and some different ways to capture the fire. So I stepped back behind the torch and handed my 7D to a lurkin lizard by the handle of Leftwingconspirator.

Falling Off the Heat Ladder, or … Daniel Boone Never Dug a Snow Cave
This is a nice piece of writing about winter and climate. Reminds me of my late Aunt Pat who said, 'When I think back to summer, it's like I was sleeping and dreaming. Only in winter am I wide awake.' A modern snowmobile is more powerful than any machine that existed on the planet 200 years ago. Today's snowmobiles go far and fast. In ...

Gizmodo Hyperventilating About FBI Camera Spying

On Fast Food and Industry Wages - Harpers.org
Now, everyone knows how poorly fast-food jobs pay. They also know why this is supposed to be okay: fast-food workers are teenagers, they don't have kids or college degrees, and it's an entry-level job. Hell, it's virtually a form of national service, the economic boot camp that has replaced the two years our fathers had to give to the armed forces. Every one of ...
