Come Visit. Live Life. Eat Cheese. Gail Collins writes humourously and well about Wisconsin's new state slogan. No, the headline is not quite it.
Bea Arthur, star of 'Golden Girls' and 'Maude,' dies at 86. L.A. Times. Obits of aging celebs are often written in advance, to be topped off when they're inevitably published. In the era of newsroom downsizing, this obit writer left before the star. The tagliine at the end reads, "Luther is a former Times staff writer." True Confessions From the Trail. Dana Milbank of WaPo covers the "now it can be told" tales by Obama's and McCain's campaign managers together at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government. James Kuhn, the man who painted his face every day of the year, has finished the 365-day project. Telegraph. Fritinancy: Ms. Dowd Interviews the Inventor of the Telephone. Maureen Dowd's flippant interview with the founders of Twitter has mightily annoyed the Twitterati. Nancy Friedman parodies it with a hypothetical Dowd interview of Alexander Graham Bell. Hat tip to Jim Willis. Ohio student aces ACT, SAT, and PSAT. She fell in love with the Princeton campus, picks it over MIT. My Tortured Decision. Fomer FBI agent reports on torture. Cure For Honey Bee Colony Collapse? Mind-reading headsets will change your brain New Scientist. How to Get Started with Solar Power. Again. Daily Green. Night Owls Stay Alert Longer than Early Birds. Pop science that confirms my experience.
