Sub-$100 laptop design unveiled

This thing seems to make much sense for the 'first world' as well and seems to get you back to the initial idea of a portable computer. I wonder why sunlight-readability of the display has not been so much of a salespoint so far. I remember deciding not to work in the garden because I was concerned I would not be able to conveniently read the screen.

I Fucked Ann Coulter in the Ass, Hard

No, not me, I did not. I just read metafilter again and found that link. If you are unfamiliar with Ann Coulter, just read these few phrases from her official homepage:
Ann Coulter is the author of four New York Times bestsellers —How to Talk to a Liberal (If You Must)(October, 2004), Treason: Liberal Treachery From the Cold War to the War on Terrorism (June 2003); Slander: Liberal Lies About the American Right (June 2002); and High Crimes and Misdemeanors:The Case Against Bill Clinton (August 1998).
Ah - and if you liked the first part of IfACitA,H, do read the next one!

learning turkish pt. iii

Yemağin biberlisiyle salçalısı, kadının göğüslüsüyle kalçalısı makbuldür.
"The food is preferred with peppers and tomato purée, the women with boobs and buns."
- implying "lots of". Recently Cultural Studies sounds more and more like a painfully neglected subject to me. But that is changing as you can see.

News from Iran in Persian

I found this after following the story of the Chinese Yahoo!-incident. So I decided to provide that link as well. To be really effective I should mirror the content, but by providing a link without too many keywords I hope to help finding that kind of information even through 'problematic' networks.
