Whoops
Here is an article at the Guardian about the closeness of the Australian election. Suggested correction: Howard is the Prime Minister, not the Premier. Premiers run states.
Are the Guardian not known as the Grauniad for their frequent errors?
Here is a video found at Pharyngula in which Roy Zimmerman makes light of Jerry Falwell's God. The video apparently was snagged from God is for Suckers, which site I discovered today still mocks Ann Coulter by calling her transsexual even though I asked them to knock it off back in June.
On the lighter side of things, this delightful post by Rebecca at Skepchicks. Make sure you watch the video; I was laughing pretty hard by the end of it. The cold reading bingo card Skeptico (the first blog I started following) made is pretty great too.
Aaand all the way back at Pharyngula, this post about a poll asking how Baylor University ought to approach Intelligent Design. I am torn on this. Would it be better to pursue fruitless research in order to allow it to demonstrate its hollowness, or give it up now for the philosophical vapour it is?
Lastly I leave you with Memories from Larvatus Prodeo (in exile), in which interesting things are said about one John Howard, Prime Minister.

This is what happens when someone gets hold of programs used for malicious attacks on people but does not know the first thing about computing.

Me: The *whole* force? My God...
[2:32:46 AM]aesmael: With him, yes, but not willingly. They would much rather frolic among the rubble of Alderaan.
[2:33:08 AM]soltice: Heh.
[2:33:23 AM]soltice Princess Leia a raging lesbian? Perhaps...
[2:33:49 AM]aesmael: Hee. Perhaps if we gave Luke a sex change.
[2:33:52 AM]aesmael: Lucy?
[2:34:23 AM]soltice: Hmmm, does the Force have the ability to do sex changes?
[2:34:56 AM]aesmael: It has the power to make people take Anakin seriously, so yeah, probably.
[2:35:09 AM]soltice: Ha!
[2:36:09 AM]aesmael: As Yoda might say: "Change your sex you cannot. Only gender there is. Choose, and be."

Classes continue to be interesting although so far we have only been having introductions to our classes, not proper lessons yet. Well, today I was rather taken with the long history of libraries, enough that I have been feeling the urge to start calling myself a 'priestess of information'.
For those of you still wondering, I have unearthed on your behalf some information about what I am doing:
There is also a section on how to vanquish librarians but I won't be sharing that. However, Uncyclopedia provides a wealth of information on every topic imaginable. Observe:
Atheism - Atheism is actually a highly secretive religion devoted to private worship of the ultimate, all powerful goddess Athe ... This means that all atheists would like to kill all straight people ... Atheists commit acts of terrorism on a regular basis.
David Hume - David Hume was the greatest philosopher who never lived. Showing his potential from an early age, he had disproved the existence of God, society, and Asia while still a foetus, and the existence of over 30% of all known objects by his fifth birthday...

Librarians hoard the wisdom of humanity. They are the keepers of all knowledge, the guardians at the temples of understanding, and devoted protectors of the sanctuary in the midst of uneducated anarchy.
“Librarians are hiding something.”
~ Stephen Colbert on Librarians
Additionally, librarians can identify the enemies of the library system by smell: thieves, small children, politicians, tax payers, homeless people, teenagers, porn addicts, and the elusive library masturbator. These enemies are vanquished typically with the famous "Shhh" or the newer phrase "I'm calling the police."
