  1. Defense Tech Blog links to Kathryn Cramer's fascinating investigative piece about the security company who's been hired by the "transitional government" of Somalia to "help with the pirate problem". They're a front company for some very unsavory mercenaries linked to Sandline and Executive Outcomes (love that name!), companies who provided killers to African civil wars in exchange for diamonds.

  2. The Exploding Aardvark presents today's best headline.

  3. LOL podcasting! LOL Adam Curry is a lamer! He's such the perfect example of failed media types trying to claw their way to the top by abusing the Internet.

  4. Hmm. Maybe New Scientist actually has today's best headline. Poor li'l monogamous voles.

  5. Four words: RICK MORANIS COUNTRY ALBUM.
