$#!* You Should Read

A few articles I really wanted to blog about, but got too lazy:

A fully transparent solar cell that could make every window and screen a power source - The sample looks a little wavy, but this would be a great use for windows if it pans out.

François Hollande is revealed as a snob – something more common on the Left than you might think - I've noticed this too, the lefter they are the less they seem to love the "little people."

The Pause that Refreshes; 16, 19 or 26 years - Whatever Happened to Global Warming? - To see the whole WSJ link, put the title back into Google. The most interesting news is that Ross McKitrick designed a test to determine the length of the pause based on a continuous record.

Female veterans learn fly-fishing to cope with trauma - Not a bad way to spend time, but fly guys can be a little snooty. I don't know about fly girls.

The Difference Between Full-Auto and Semi-Automatic - The article that no leftie MSM journalist will ever read.

Against the Agri-intellectuals - A farmer takes on the intellectual giants who think you can produce enough food for everyone with good intentions and unicorn farts.

The Australian Government Broadcaster asks if we should ditch Democracy to ensure a climate change response - You can almost see the desperation as they fail to get people worried enough to give them control.

Coffee naps are better than coffee or naps alone - Coffee and a 20 minute nap go together bacon and, well, damn near anything. I've done this, but I didn't know how it worked.

Just HALF of women can locate the vagina on a diagram of the female reproductive system - Well, they're Brits, so it figures. On the other hand, Ann Althouse is constantly complaining about how people confuse vulvae and vaginae. I, myself am not confused, but don't find it a common topic of conversation.

Nightmarish Cricket That Eats Anything Is Now Invading the US - The good news is that they won't eat you if you keep moving.

Wombat-socho must have skipped the Redskins's game to post "Rule 5 Sunday: The Man Who Saved Britain" at The Other McCain.
