- Very interesting comment from the Mackinac Center for Public Policy. "Over 51 percent of the University of Michigan’s freshman class comes from households with incomes above $100,000 per year. Yet, only 12.7 percent of Michigan households earn such incomes, according to calculations using 2000 Census figures. . |

- Does everyone recall when numerous right-wing commentators were attacking "the left" because, these commentators claimed, the left was blaming the United States for September 11? I remember hearing this charge held up not only as evidence of intellectual treachery, but as proof that no one on the left has any business speaking out on the future of this nation. Did anybody read Victor Davis Hanson's latest column for National Review Online? Democratic critics keep deconstructing federal reports about intelligence lapses that might have led to the tragedy of September 11. While they fault the administration [~] in some cases correctly [~] for an apparent lack of vigilance, they do not dare explore the real heart of the disaster. |

- This one's trippy, too: a compellingly readable new story by Alejo, Nemesis Returned. I've never been able to figure out how much of Alejo's stories are a metaphor for his life, how much is pure literary affect/effort. Either way, it doesn't really matter: it's this reader's enjoyment of the stories that does. |

SIPphone (Aug 13 2003 02:06 GMT) - Wired News reports on a new venture launched by Lindows founder Michael Robertson in Internet telephony: SIPphone sells $65 phones that call anywhere in the world essentially for free. Users don't pay per-call or per-minute fees, just the cost of their regular broadband service and a one-time cost for the device, which arrives pre-configured with a unique phone number in the area code "747" ("S-I-P" on your phone keypad). Turn the SIPphone on, plug it in to your broadband connection and place your call. But unlike services offered by many of its established competitors, with SIPphone you can only call other compatible SIP devices, not "regular" land lines or cell phones. |
