i hadnt watched any of the chris wallace - bill clinton showdown until i saw a couple of clips on the daily show tonight. i know people mocked foxs "clinton unhinged" teaser for the program but i think it was an apt description. of course, they think thats a bad thing. too bad hes out there equivocating on lieberman. im glad he can get riled enough to defend his legacy too bad he somehow considers lieberman a part of it. i dont know why considering what a useful idiot the rabbi was during the lewinsky business.

Martin Geddes over at Telepocalypse has some interesting thoughts about how media delivery systems will evolve.

Interesting WWII story. I'll reserve judgement until I hear Bruno's opinion, but it sounds convincing:
In all this time however, every attempt at biological warfare has been essentially offensive. The idea has always been to incapacitate or kill the enemy. Except once, in Poland, during World War II, where a pair of quick-thinking doctors used a little-known organism to keep the Nazis at bay.
The microorganism is Proteus OX19. In most ways it’s an entirely ordinary little bacterium. Its one remarkable feature is that human antibodies for Proteus OX19 cross-react with the antibodies for Ricksettia – the bacterium responsible for the deadly disease typhus. Blood from a patient infected with Proteus Ox19 will give a false-positive in the most common typhus screening method, the Weil-Felix test.
Enter the Nazis into Poland....

Implementing the new homepage design is held up because the submitted design uses CSS code that happens to completely break on Mobile IE. Mobile IE may be a terrible browser (even worse than regular IE), but it's (sadly) popular. Determining what exactly is causing the break is non-trivial.

Frank Rich on 'The Decline and Fall of Truth' listen
Fresh Air from WHYY, September 20, 2006 · New York Times columnist Frank Rich's new book is The Greatest Story Ever Sold: The Decline and Fall of Truth from 9/11 to Katrina. Rich has been with the Times since 1980, when he was named chief theater critic.
With reviews that could be devastating, Rich earned the nickname The Butcher of Broadway. In 1994, Rich became an op-ed columnist for the paper, turning his focus to politics and culture. Slate recently re-dubbed him The Butcher of the Beltway.

I watched about 20 minutes of Meet the Tim's Webb v. Macaca debate tonight. It's a thing of beauty. Webb is articulate, informed and well-reasoned. Macaca is a smirking asshole who only knows his bullshit talking points.

Microsoft's Zune Won't Play Protected Windows Media
In yesterday's announcement of the new Zune media player and Zune Marketplace, Microsoft (and many press reports) glossed over a remarkable misfeature that should demonstrate once and for all how DRM and the DMCA harm legitimate customers.
