Time flies,
death urges,
knells call,
Heaven invites,
Hell threatens.

"When Charles Darwin introduced the theory of evolution through natural selection 143 years ago, the scientists of the day argued over it fiercely, but the massing evidence from paleontology, genetics, zoology, molecular biology and other fields gradually established evolution's truth beyond reasonable doubt. Today that battle has been won everywhere--except in the public imagination." Scientific American: 15 Answers to Creationist Nonsense |

"WASHINGTON (AP) - In a decision that could aid the government's anti-terrorism efforts, the Supreme Court ruled Monday that police can question passengers on buses and trains and search for evidence without informing them that they can refuse." So if you get arrested, they have to inform you of your rights, but if you're just sitting on a bus, your rights are your own problem. Yahoo! News - Supreme Court Rules on Bus Searches |

[via Cyantist] Until very recently, one of the most striking things about our economy was how common it was for young people to make a lot of money quickly. For nearly 20 years, except for a year or two in the early 90's, a college student has been able to gaze out of his dorm-room window and see a well-traveled path to millions. His ability to imagine himself getting very rich very quickly was an ingredient in the modern money culture. ... That's what 27-year-olds did, strike it rich. This youthward shift in moneymaking has had all sorts of strange social effects. ... It would hardly be surprising if the pursuit of passion led ambitious young people to rethink the whole idea of success. The comment about "a couple years in the early 90's" is a huge understatement which seriouly marrs the observation here. However, some of the conclusions are reasonable regardless.
