Link-o-rama

It's been killer busy at work recently, so time I usually spend idly blogging is now being spent doing other things. Some nice stories I've picked up, though:

The year's first baby.

Here's a really embarrasing story concerning the cultural incompetence of the people in charge of our nation's security.

Boston Harbor has been filthily polluted for pretty much the past 200 years. Any claim that it's going to get better because of microbes leaves me highly dubious.

China is planning a manned mission to space...good for them! Although the "space capsule" looks a little MST3K.

Sorry about the lazy blogging. I promise something more pithy soon.
