If you're from Texas or care about the envrionment, read this article from The Huffington Post:    The following link is to a story about TXU, a Texan utility company, who has plans to build 11 "Clean" coal burning power plants. Clean coal is a word combo that belongs with jumbo shrimp or military intelligence as needing to be reviewed. The amazing thing about TXU's plans is not that they claim that it is a clean source now for power; they claim that sometime in the future, someone will come up with a solution for the filth they will put into the air now. This kind of disrespect from TXU is like them just calling us idiots to our face and proceeding forward with no regard for us or the future. I can't believe that people complain about windmills and don't complain about this. Frances Beinecke: The Dirty Truth About Coal in Texas. 12:14:08 PM    comment []

Travel advisory from Kentucky from Boing Boing, Mark Frauenfelder and Todd Lappin: Confiscated bats at Louisville airport.    Hey Slugger, did you think you could bring this on board in your carry on? "Sadly, this is the closest thing to 'local flavor' that I've seen at any of the otherwise uniformly-grim TSA outposts around the country." Link 10:24:22 AM    comment []
