March 29, 2007

1. Is Torture a ‘Fair Use’ of Copyrighted Music? Sounds like as good a way as any to keep a spotlight on the government’s actions. And look, yet another angle for criticizing the RIAA!

2. Get Virtual Lab Mice Drunk, Stoned, or High. Cute graphics.

3. Report says Voter Fraud is “Extremely Rare”. Why requiring photo IDs at polls only hurts democracy.

4. Study: Moral Outrage and Perceptions of Inequality.. Shows that stories of morally outrageous social injustices induced reader support of measures for greater equality, while rags-to-riches stories of heroic boot-strappers lowered support for such initiatives. Suggests people manipulate their perceptions of inequality to avoid emotional distress.

5. Amusing tale of the author’s stubborn search for the real-life location of an anonymous Windows wallpaper picture.
