This is a pretty cool look at how folks are trying to reverse-engineer ancient tools and have found some surprisingly sophisticated techniques.
Give it a listen.

Stephen Strasburg may be the second coming of pitching, but having known asshole agent Scott Boras onboard makes me like him a whole lot less as a human being.
Apparently, I’m not the only one.
A look at one type of crime you only see related to a casino town.
You’d be amazed how much theft comes into play concerning tickets and player cards. Every casino I’ve ever done a project at has some story related to the problem.
There have been some gruesome injuries both at the plate and the mound in recent days. Here’s a quick look at them and some commentary.
Thanks to the GDAB for the linkage:

Frankly, one of the best damn pieces of journalism I’ve heard or read in awhile.
In short, a look at what’s wrong with our prison system through the view of how far the California penal system has fallen.
Honestly, give it a listen.
Bob points out how FAUXNews does everything but direct it’s angry mobs to where this little girl’s bedroom is. He also had to follow up with more proof that FAUX and it’s conservative zealots are targeting an 11-year old girl and endangering her and her family for merely having an opinion on health care not based in fantasy land.
He also wrote about other instances of conservative stalking of private citizens.
Republicans: if you don’t agree with us, we’ll just tell our angry militia racist types where you live.
Speaking of, here are Republicans in action against the President. This asshole was arrested in Maryland for carrying a sign calling for the deaths of the entire Obama family.
We couldn’t comment on the Bush Twins re-enacting scenes from Girls Gone Wild but your average Rethug can call for the death of the First Family and he’s a Republican Hero&trade.
In LA, we have this traitor who made threats against the White House and then created an eight-hour standoff with police who came to detain him for questioning.
In Michigan, a Rethug county commissioner decided it was proper to carry a swastika sign to their healther protest. Nice touch, racist.
Once again, I find myself agreeing with Paul Krugman, who asks Obama to please stop appeasing theses racist traitors. They have obviously chosen to reject public discourse and merely want to overturn the results of the last election. In short, our government is totally within their rights to cull some of them from the herd and frighten these gun-toting bigots who probably honestly don’t give one damn about health care.
I’m not sure why people keep reporting on how this – and every other Republican theory on health care reform – is utter BS.
Common sense Americans already KNOW the GOP is lying, and has been since at least they said they were “surprised” when 9/11 happened.
As for the anarchic Talibangelical asshats? At this point, God himself couldn’t convince them that they are full of shit.
Another NPR article calls this the Summer of Hate, somehow equating the 1969 Summer of Love to this mob uprising. While there probably are some ex-hippies amongst the firebreathers shouting down democracy, I doubt it’s really the same crowd. These are probably the same ilk shucking duty like W or draft dodging through loopholes like Cheney as opposed to serial protesters.
Either way, they are angry, scared fools easily manipulated by the GOP.
Another fine Miyazaki movie. I can’t wait to see this.
