How it explains the president’s response to the “Arab spring.”
Makes sense to me.
Being Immortal
Five reasons that it would suck.
I think it misses the point a little, though. It assumes that only you would be immortal. If everyone was, some of the reasons would go away. But more importantly, the goal isn’t immortality, it’s the ability to live as long as one wants to. I think that when you phrase it that way, none of the objections apply.
Asking The Important Questions
I’m sure glad that the president is taking time out from fixing the economy and the Middle East in meltdown to deal with the critical issue of football officiating. But I guess it’s a big issue for the swing state of Wisconsin.

Higher-Education Bubble Update
These people don’t need school — they need finishing school.
Obama’s Next Solyndra
Here comes Smith Electric:
The company has very limited customer base of only eight companies, and “the loss of any of these customers could materially harm our business.”
The SEC filing contained other damaging revelations. The firm said that its truck’s lithium-ion battery cells “have been observed to catch fire or vent smoke and flames,” and their warranty reserves may be insufficient to cover future warranty claims.
The company’s top management has limited or no experience in the automobile or truck business. Hansel previously led Evo Medical Solutions, which sold portable oxygen concentrators.
But other than that, it was a great bet, Secretary Chu.

A Reusable Falcon
Will it be bad for SpaceX?
The problem with his analysis is that (as Clark Lindsey notes in comments) he assumes no elasticity of demand with the lower prices. I think he’s wrong.
Jews Who Vote For Barack Obama
…are dumb Jews. Three good reasons.
I’m pretty sure that the LA Times knows that if it released the Khalidi tape, it would be devastating to his prospects for the Jewish vote.
[Update mid morning]
Jewish Democrats warn Netanyahu to stay out of the U.S. election.
They’re running scared. If the Romney campaign was smart, he’d fly to New York and meet with him.

Elizabeth Warren
Fauxcahontas AKA Spreading Bull has a potential legal problem.
Maybe her real Indian name is Practicing Without License. Hope the Brown campaign picks up on this.
[Update early afternoon]
A difference of opinion. A lot of discussion in comments. She may be within the letter of the law, but as a commenter points out, her actions on September 11th stink.
