I think I'm just going to keep an editor window open all the
time and paste interesting stuff into it as I find it. Every so
often I'll post it and start over. As before, these are from
others' journals (including other "link sausage" posts), personal
email, mailing lists, and random stuff I trip over.
Trilobite Cookies -- I don't bake often, but these look
cute and I really liked the writing style (and maybe baking
friends will make them and give me some): "Real trilobites may or
may not have tasted like chicken. (who knows?) These cookies are
the result of my most recent research into what ancient trilobites
would have tasted like if primitive biochemical processes were
based on jam/chocolate/cookie molecules."
The Science Of Unconventional Planning from MeetingNews.com, which
describes itself as "the complete online source for news and information
for the meeting, convention, incentive and trade show professionals".
This is an article about WorldCon, and what fandom gets right from hotels'
points of view.
A distant Pioneer whispers to Earth -- we're still getting occasional
radio signals from Pioneer 10, now more than eleven light-hours away and
three decades old.
Mass arrests of Muslims in LA, which is some pretty shocking
crap if the article is accurate -- if there's stuff the article
isn't telling us, then it's a stunningly bad manuever PR-wise at
the very best, and I'd be surprised if even the best spin can
make it any better than "a highly questionable act". I'd add "and
unAmerican", but we've done worse than this within the past
century, unfortunately. Again, I fear for my country, more from
those attempting/claiming to protect it than from those who are
overtly attempting to harm us.
