A while ago I was looking for an answer to this question -- finally found it.

Flash and Boom

Thunderstorms in Southern California last night like I haven't seen since I was in Florida. The last time I remember something like this happening out here was before the first day of classes of my junior or senior year of college. Which would have also made it September.

John Roberts

I like the way he answers questions -- I suspect he's the kind of pragmatic executive that stupid people thought they saw when they voted for Bush the first time. The consensus among NPR legal experts seems to be that his testimony thus far is a big disappointment for conservatives looking for an activist on their side of the bench. One reason to like him.

Two question I wish a Democratic senator would ask:

1. Do you think the example of Portugal offers any lessons for lawmakers and law-interpreters addressing the issue of abortion? (This is a really loaded question, given the whole international law debate. If he pleads ignorance -- offer an overview of recent developments and restate the question.)

2. Are familiar with the controversy over the teaching of evolution in high school biology classes? In your judgement, is there a reasonable basis for not making evolutionary theory the foundation of modern instruction in biology? Do you find that the evidence supports the claim that evolution explains the historical development of human beings? (This should be the real litmus test!)

Evolution of a Business Card

Still like the first one best. (All the information on the last one is implicit in the first.)

Databases

I'm a MySQL partisan, mostly because it's mostly free and easy to use with PHP. But this is a subject I'm thinking ever increasingly about. Some useful links I found browsing the slashdot comments:
