Random links:Let me put in a plug for a good radio station, KCRW. I used to listen to them locally when I lived in LA; their Morning Becomes Eclectic show is a very good listen - "combining progressive pop, world beat, jazz, African, reggae, classical and new music". They have a huge archive of previous shows (including BBC's version of Hitchiker's Guide). No need to be bored here.
Movie style Bank Robbery.

Moving yet further down the happiness scale, here's a scan of a newspaper article from here in Kingston. It is a lesson on the temporary status of life, the "quality" of Jamaican newspaper reporting, and a short glimpse of the vernacular. Daily Observer

NASA images of Katrina, showing flooding &c.
And then in the Rita section, we have this cool mpeg of rainfall around the hurricane at 1300EDT yesterday (23 Sept).
Switching topics completely, a useful links page of Mennonite Connections. Although one year old, it is still a fairly current "catalogue of Mennonite and Amish resources on the Internet".
Which reminds me, I have here a list of articles on numerous topics from a Mennonite perspective. The website is Church of God in Christ, Mennonite (a.k.a. Holdeman) maintained; and as I haven't read all the articles (there are a lot of resources here), I can't personally affirm their contents. However, a number of the expressed viewpoints are for the most part generically agreed upon by a lot of the conservative Mennonite groups. There are articles from the Mennonite GC, Herald Press, and Southeastern conference—as well as a number of other random places.
Just for grins and giggles, I needed this for something at some point: Great Circle Calculator.
