Beware of Spider-Man

Greetings.

Jewish date:  22 ’Iyyar 5770 (Parashath BeHar-BeḤuqqothay).

Today’s quasi-holidays:  No Diet Day, Nurses’ Day.

Worthy causes of the day:  “Sign the Petition | Terror Gap” and “Samsung: Come Clean About the Hazards in Your Workplace - The Petition Site”.

Today’s news and commentary:

• “General election 2010: Information is Beautiful goes poll dancing”:  Polls can be substantially inaccurate, especially long before elections.  Never forget “Dewey Defeats Truman”!
• “A thousand trillion suns”:  The message:  awe and humility.
• “In Deep Water: Can we afford to spill any oil?”
• “Deniers abuse power to attack climate scientists”
• “Top 10 things Hollywood thinks computers can do”

Today’s weird thing is “Spider-Man foils comic book thief in Australia”.  The title does not quite mean what it sounds like, but the incident is rather amusing.  Enjoy, share the weirdness, and thank your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man.
