- Obama to expand Bush’s faith based programs: I've got to admit, this is disappointing and worrying. On the one hand, I can't see myself voting for McCain or 'throwing away' my vote on a candidate who has no hope of winning. On the other hand, sometimes I really don't like what Obama's doing.
- Seattle Gothic Pageant Presents – GOTH PRIDE 08!: stillbourne's roundup of Goth Pride photos (so far). I really need to get to work on mine…
- Photos of last night’s heat lightning storm over Seattle: I missed it, so these photos are great to see. Most impressive (to me): the first two shots are two views of the same lightning strike, from different viewpoints. Really cool.
- World’s fastest man: Tyson Homosexual: Apparently, [rabidly anti-gay website OneNewsNow] have set a filter to change many instances of “gay” to “homosexual,” which is how Tyson Gay, who set a record in the 100-meter dash this weekend, changed his name.
- Eye on the Universe (July-August 2008): [Harvard Magazine] asked a few [astronomers] to choose their favorite images, photographs that have been important to advancing humanity’s scientific understanding of the universe.
