2. Killer dolphins let loose by Katrina. Weird:

   It may be the oddest tale to emerge from the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Armed dolphins, trained by the US military to shoot terrorists and pinpoint spies underwater, may be missing in the Gulf of Mexico.

4. SQLObject. Gonna investigate for a project.

   Update: Heh, SQLObject won't work for me. So, I'm going from the most abstracted interface possible to the most low-level available.

9. Power Line: Cleaning up after the Democrats once again:

   The Bush administration deserves credit for getting a deal that at least has a chance of succeeding. It's a better deal than Clinton got, and Clinton had more leverage than Bush since North Korea had not yet developed nukes at that time.
   
   Bush also deserves credit for rejecting the approach advocated by that wannabe diplomat, John Kerry. During last year's debates, Kerry argued that the U.S. should hold bilateral talks with North Korea. Bush insisted that China be involved at all times on the theory that, otherwise, the six-party talks would unwind. In short, Bush and his team recognized the centrality of China, while this fairly obvious reality seemed to elude the "sophisticated" Senator Kerry.
