The International German Beard and Moustache Championships is going on today in Hesel. Willi Chevalier displays the whiskers that won last year's world champion freestyle chin beard award.

jazzfest.jpgThe New Orleans Jazz Festival is under way, this weekend and next. The Sunday afternoon concert will be Webcast on MSN tomorrow from 3 to 8 p.m.

NOLA.com is all over it, of course, including a blog, Adventures of a Jazzfest veteran'.

Here's the lineup.

BBC has a slideshow and a story about Bob Dylan kicking it off. (The AP photo at right.)

New: Google SketchUp (free) is an easy-to-learn 3D modeling program that enables you to explore the world in 3D. With just a few simple tools, you can create 3D models of houses, sheds, decks, home additions, woodworking projects - even space ships. And once you've built your models, you can place them in Google Earth, post them to the 3D Warehouse, or print hard copies. Google SketchUp is free for personal use. No registration is required.

Highly speculative: Fitzgerald to Seek Indictment of Rove. Jason Leoplold at truthout.


Neil Young's Livng With War is, as hyped, live online -- and but the quality of the streaming audio files is so bad that it's hard to listen to.

Daffy, etc.: Classic Cartoons, the blog.
