Hire the architect who created today’s weird thing!

Greetings.

Jewish date:  20 Ṭeveth 5770 (Parashath Shemoth).

Today’s quasi-holidays:  Apple Tree Day, World Day for War Orphans

Today’s news and commentary:

• “Why My Congressman is Wrong About the Libyan Mission in Englewood”
  
• “Pi Computation Record”:  The record for computing pi is now about 2.7 trillion digits.
  
• “Fixing a Security Problem Isn't Always the Right Answer”
  
• “Obesity is now just as much of a drag on health as smoking”
  
• “Vaccines work”:  The graph shows what happens when people are vaccinated en masse.
  
• “Mac security reality check: user error”
  
• Not strictly news or commentary, but Project Gutenberg yesterday released a new electronic edition of The Tin Woodman of Oz with the original illustrations.  The edition in question is the zip-compressed HTML version.

Today’s weird thing is “Kansas City Library”, which deals with a photograph of a library whose architect did a marvelously appropriate job.  Enjoy and share the weirdness.
