Can you address the color temperature and CRI of this bulb? The source article is, as usual, inadequate.

The phrase "it's medically necessary" lets your liquids bypass most TSA checkpoint shenanigans.
Where is a reality TV producer when you need one? This whole thing, even the insurance company angle, is fascinating.
I hope there are IMAX cameras on site when they start trying to re-float that thing, or cut it into pieces.
A business method patent?
I have no doubt that Google will happily build the sort of profiles you are describing. But Google already knows when my doctor appointments are and other personal things so the additional damage from G+ is minimal. That's ok, I don't post anything on the internet, even in a private service, that I wouldn't mind having used against me in a court of law. And I am only going to connect with people that I trust not to drag my name through the mud in whatever of their content may leak out into public.
I like G+ because it is easy to use the service to keep in touch with some people while remaining nearly invisible to the people that I don't care about. I can even use a fake profile name, or first name + last initial. When I tried that on Facebook they said forget it, how about you email us a copy of your driver's license to prove that's your name? The hell with that!
You think this cable thing is silly? I got a better one.
The GloFish is a zebra danio that's been remixed with genes from a jellyfish in order to produce a 1980s neon look. These pet fish are supposed to be shipped sterilized, but just in case yours breed... the license agreement tells you that you can't sell the offspring.

I have no idea how enforceable this is since you don't even click to agree when buying the fish. It seems absurd. How can such a "license" be binding?
Hey, maybe I can set up a breeding tank for these contraband HDMI cables. Are they egglayers or livebearers?
...but a uniformed or off-duty police officer? Why would someone with so much power be allowed to prevent the recording of the exercise of that authority?
Homeland security, of course! The article says, "In a hearing last December, Cook County Assistant State Attorney Jeff Allen invoked homeland security, arguing that Drew's recording could have picked up police discussing anti-terrorism tactics." Man, how could you make that argument with a straight face?
Anyone interested in "cop arrests guy with camera even though no law was broken" stories should check out Carlos Miller's blog.
I didn't have to modify the keyboard config file by hand to use my Harmony... But I did have to spend a long time f'ing around with EventGhost. (My Harmony-compatible IR receiver is a USB-IRT, which I bought ages ago to use with SageTV.)
Last I looked the xbmc wiki was way out of date or simply silent on some topics. The forums were the best source of info, but also the most newb-hostile forums I had ever seen. Newcomers were often referred to sticky threads that were out of date. Development moved quickly and you had to be an xbmc enthusiast to keep up with the changes.
It's an awesome package though, and worth the time to figure out.
"A great pocket computer with phone capabilities" is what I am looking for, for my next phone. I'd happily read any N900 musings or links you may wish to post.
I think I read the N900 has slow cellular data, but that doesn't bother me--I'd use data services on wifi only.
Even worse, TSA is ALREADY expanding its scope to rail travel. His joke was disingenuous because he darn well knows this is happening already. There is no pat-down, though... not yet anyway.
It's hard to find news coverage of TSA scope expansion but it's easy to find personal reports on forums like this.
The debate rages on: Is PL/I Bachtrian or Dromedary?
