Here's your chance to catch up on some interesting stuff:
"Britain on alert for deadly new knife with exploding tip that freezes victims' organs." It's a legitimate item, clearly not for most people, but what is the alert about?
Have a great moving story? Mad Melancholic Feminista is looking for some.
Ever see a 96-armed octopus?
Disbarment, obvious, is not enough, but it should come with the territory of those who get Bush pardons.
The termites are immediately back at the lobbyist disclosure provisions on gifts to lawmakers and staff.



They're talking about selling kitchen knives without tips now, since they can't be used for murder as easily. I use kitchen knives more than most, and I can't see that that would interfere with my work in the kitchen at all.
Or are the knives primarily being used as a weapon in the heat of the moment?
I don't think overall violent crime is as high here as in the US. But media coverage of it is as high. I swear every time I turn on the radio I hear a report about knife crime being studied by this or that gov't body.
