And a few more links:

1. Lifehacker says Microsoft's security tools are good enough.

2. Outrage in Australia because Britney Spears lipsynched at a concert. John Mayer had a good line:

If you're shocked that Britney was lip-syncing at her concert and want your money back, life may continue to be hard for you.

3. V's mothership was directly inspired by the new wing to the Milwaukee Art Museum, designed by Spanish artist Santiago Calatrava. (I was extremly unimpressed with the first episode - - plot recycled from countless sci-fi shows and books and characters ranging from boring to unlikable.) Via.

And a few more links:

1. This can't possibly be real. Willie Brown (a longtime California politician) says of a recent party:

I went to an unbelievable dinner party at Charlotte and George Shultz's penthouse Monday night for retired Army Gen. Eric Shinseki, the new secretary of veterans affairs.

The party was a Stanlee Gatti tour de force, complete with fatigue-wearing servers, camouflage table cloths, extras dressed up as snipers and a full Marine color guard and band.

It was like being in Afghanistan.

All this for about a dozen guests. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger was there with his wife, Maria Shriver. Gavin Newsom was there with Jennifer, and boy is she showing.

At what point does the Red Death show up and eliminate all of them? Via.

2. Design for the tentacle tiger vinyl toy - - Melita Curphy's second toy made by Patch Together. Would you be interested in a vinyl toy based on the mascots of either of my sites?
