CNN.com – Possible mini solar system discovered – Nov 30, 2005
This is such a poorly written article that I find myself again amazed at what passes for “science writing” in the mainstream media. But still, it’s news worth discussing. It was once argued by many, perhaps most, astronomers that solar systems and planets were probably [...]

Yahoo! News Photo
I have been waiting for these photos. The MSM is a bit overdue. The annual (Republican administration only) “homeless are dying” parade usually begins about the middle of November so that the Thanksgiving stories can beat up the current Republican President. This started during Reagan’s term and was tied closely to the “Senior [...]

CNN.com – Abortion law goes before Supreme Court – Nov 27, 2005
I have never been able to reconcile the fact that nurses at my children’s school cannot give aspirin to my children, but my daughter can have an abortion without my knowledge, much less consent. It just doesn’t make sense to me.

I’m sure the lead story on Al Jazeera today is “Allah angry with Iran for nuclear posture.”
Right.
From Foxnews: FOXNews.com – Politics – Time’s Viveca Novak to Testify in CIA Leak Case
So Fitzgerald is still digging for something on Karl Rove. I guess there are a couple of ways to look at that. The first is that Fitzgerald has a real lead on something that Karl did and is determined to bring [...]
CNN.com – War protesters pack up, leave – Nov 27, 2005
Don’t you just love CNN? Here are a couple of quotations from this story:
The weeklong protest, which coincided with Bush’s Thanksgiving holiday visit to his ranch, drew about 200 people.
Or to put it in perspective they could have said “reporters outnumbered supporters.”
Protesters credit the [...]

CNN.com – Japan: Success for asteroid probe – Nov 26, 2005
Hayabusa seems to have touched down on the asteroid and hopefully picked up a sample of asteroid regolith. We won’t know for sure until it returns to earth in about 18 months. Still, good news, for a while Hayabusa was thought to be lost.
Asteroid regolith [...]
