26 'Iyyar 5766 * 24 May 2006: Day 41 of the `Omer

Greetings.

Today’s news and commentary:

• Elder of Ziyon and Israel Matzav have had lots of articles recently worthwhile reading.
  
• “Gecko-like robot scampers up the wall”
  
• “Iraq and Afghanistan”
  
• “This is a Saudi textbook. (After the intolerance was removed.)” (This displays some paranoid, unrealistic misconceptions about non-Muslims.)

On Monday, I reported on MacSaber, a program that makes lightsaber sounds when you swing your MacBook or other sufficiently recent Apple portable computer. Today’s weird thing is an inevitable consequence of this program: “MacSaber Fighting”. Enjoy.
