If this little car isn’t sex on wheels, I don’t know what is: 1958 Berkeley B65. Apparently it only sports a two-cylinder engine, which was standard for the make; they specialized in tiny motorcycle-powered sportscars in the late 50’s. Normally I dislike yellow, but I think it fits this little skate perfectly.
I found out, through doing some research for a project here at work, that the exact green used for U.S. highway signage is Pantone 342.
An excellent, excellent link provided by my Illustration professor via Facebook: Everything You Need to Know About Global Warming in 5 Minutes. His postscript:
[Jeremy] Grantham is an institutional investor who other institutional investors read. He invests based on data and is one of the few who does not politicize facts.
People who find themselves on the other side of the argument with Grantham reexamine their conclusions because it’s been a bad idea to bet against him in the past.
Oh, crap. The NYT reports that men who spend the majority of their time sitting (say, in front of a computer, for example) have a much higher risk of heart disease, even if they get regular exercise.

I don’t understand why the Republobots still have this dope as the party chairman, but he sure is funny: Republicans line up on opposite sides over latest Steele controversy. All that having been said, I find his utter disregard for, uh, facts, to be humorous and sad.

Wow, I’m totally digging Flickr’s new photo interface—they’ve done a bunch of things that make using it a lot easier. The share menu is so much nicer now (instead of two clicks to get to a chunk of HTML, they’ve made it a DHTML rollover) and the mapping widget is really slick. My Pro account is up for renewal in a few weeks, and even though I was planning on continuing, they’ve made me a happy repeat customer.
