- An Image from My Facebook Feed: I was struck by the juxtaposition of these two status updates in my Facebook feed. Apple makes life so much better for people; Apple investigated by the DOJ. Alas, these facts are not unrelated, thanks to antitrust law.
- $1B of TSA Nude Body Scanners Made Worthless By Blog — How Anyone Can Get Anything Past The Scanners: Wow, this technique is super-simple… and seems to be a major security hole.
- SC County GOP: If You’ve Had Pre-Marital Sex, You Can’t Be A Republican [Candidate]: No more porn, either.

At this point, I fear that the worst outcome in the 2012 presidential election might be Mitt Romney winning the GOP nomination, then losing in the general election. We’d have the hell of four more years of Obama, and the GOP’s theocrats would be inspired to work even harder for a “pure” candidate like Rick Santorum in 2016.
