Kentucky Governor Steve Beshear has unveiled plans to give tax breaks to the Creation Museum to build an expansion that includes a full-scale Noah's Ark and a Tower of Babel.

"Right. What's a cubit?"

Or, as Capt. Renault on MeFi said:

There's something in the back of my mind about building a Tower of Babel... I can't put my finger on it right now, but I'm sure it's nothing to worry about.

Charlie Stross proposes that Julian Assange should get the 2011 Nobel Peace Prize:

Wikileaks is not attacking the US government; rather, it's acting to degrade the ability of pressure groups to manipulate the US government to their own ends. Those who benefit the most from their ability to manipulate the State Department are the most angry about this: autocratic middle eastern leaders, authoritarian right-wing politicians, royalty, corporate cartels. Those of us who are scratching our heads and going "huh?" about the significance of Muammar Ghadaffi's botox habit are missing the point: it's not about the content, but about the implication that the powerful can no longer count on their ability to lie to the public without being called on it.

And points to zunguzungu: Julian Assange and the Computer Conspiracy; “To destroy this invisible government”.

... anyone who was surprised that our embassies are doing dirty, secretive, and disingenuous political work as a matter of course is naïve. But Assange is not trying to produce a journalistic scandal which will then provoke red-faced government reforms or something, precisely because no one is all that scandalized by such things any more. Instead, he is trying to strangle the links that make the conspiracy possible, to expose the necessary porousness of the American state’s conspiratorial network in hopes that the security state will then try to shrink its computational network in response, thereby making itself dumber and slower and smaller.

Schneier on Security: Close the Washington Monument:

Securing the Washington Monument from terrorism has turned out to be a surprisingly difficult job. The concrete fence around the building protects it from attacking vehicles, but there's no visually appealing way to house the airport-level security mechanisms the National Park Service has decided are a must for visitors. It is considering several options, but I think we should close the monument entirely. Let it stand, empty and inaccessible, as a monument to our fears.

An interesting item from Science News: If you ask an American or European to arrange something in chronological order (say, cards depicting the 7 Ages of Man) they arange them from left to right, with the earliest on the left. If you ask certain Australian Aboriginals to do the task, they set them up from East to West, just like the Sun travels in the sky. Seems an obvious approach. However, if you sit the Yank on the other side of the table he will still set the cards up from his left to his right, while the Aboriginal will reverse the order of the cards. They don't use left or right, they use absolute directions, like North and South. The implications for having so acute a sense of direction are intriguing; I suppose if your tribe has been in the same valley for 40,000 years you already know every bush and rock cold.

A lot of people have been mentioning that the U.S. State Department is warning prospective students to not post links to Wikileaks on social networking sites.

Now as much as I'm not generally against the Wikileaks leaks, this is generally smart: A bunch of trusting someone to keep secrets is to know that they're not gonna be casual with confirming or denying things that appear to be common knowledge.

Which is very related to the Valerie Plame situation. It doesn't matter if it's "common knowledge", or has shown up on the cover of Aviation Leak Week, if you're part of a secrecy chain and want to maintain that chain, that means a bunch of denying that something exists outside of the very defined space in which that secret isn't.

The sculpture was augmented with some small thermite and magnesium sparklers, and put on a spectacular show. The crowd dancing around the fire afterwards, with firemen in the middle (attempting to keep people from being hurt) was priceless and a wonderful karmic confluence just a couple of blocks from what we used to call the "Virtual Building".

I know I've whined about this before, and I've tried a number of things, but: Am I really reduced to buying an iPod to replace my CD collection?

I have our CD collection ripped to MP3, on a network share, available as SMB, NFS, and probably whatever the hell else I want to throw out there. I'm also willing to copy it to a device.

I have a Chumby, which currently works with SqueezeServer, but the web interface to SqueezeServer is buggy as hell, the whole thing is slower than I have patience for, and we have to fire up something additional to change the music.

There's allegedly Chumby LAN Music, but I can't get it working, I think I could debug it, but that still leaves us without something to browse the album covers (this is important to Charlene).

I want a device I can plug my stereo into that plays audio off the network shares and lets us browse the album cover art quickly and easily.

At this point, I don't even care if I have to buy a tablet computer or netbook to put in the living room, if I can figure out the right interface.

So: Do I need a faster house server so that SqueezeServer is fast enough?

Do the Squeezebox devices provide a usable fast front-end?

If I buy a computer to run this, what's a simple interface that lets us manage playlists and browse album art?

Am I really reduced to putting the MP3 collection into [yuck] iTunes and buying a mumbledy-mumble gig iPod, copying the whole thing over to that, and then plugging that into the stereo?

Nerve.com: Similar oral sex scenes in Black Swan and Blue Valentine get two different ratings. The former involves two women, and got an R, the latter has a man going down on a woman and got an NC-17.

I don't know what all the differences are, I'd hazard a guess that this goes beyond the "it's hawt if two chicks do it, hur hur" double standard, just the sort of thing the MPAA ratings are famous for, fully over into the "fucked up people in dysfunctional relationships using sex as a weapon get a free pass" territory.

Oh yeah, here we go: IMDB says Blue Valentine is a drama/romance, and that Black Swan is a drama/thriller. So I'm guessing those involved get "punished", making the self-loathing closeted freaks in the MPAA ratings board feel okay with the sex.

Martin Robbins writes about journalism in the context of the NASA "life and arsenic" press conference:

The blogosphere is where this farcical handling of science outreach collided viciously with reality. What's remarkable is that it was only at this stage that the checks and balances that ought to have prevented things going this far finally came into play, and when they did it was like watching a blob of cream cheese hit a metal grater at five million miles per hour.

The quality, accuracy and context of material available on leading blogs exceeded that of much of mainstream media reporting by light years. ...

At one time I used to enjoy reading the Economist. But I dropped my subscription in the wake of their editorial support for "Enhanced Interrogation". Now the Economist is proving to me that I never want to pick up their rag again with their position on the WikiLeaks cables. But they do make a troubling point. The "fan response" to WikiLeaks is turning the Internet into a digital Afghanistan. Insurgents are setting off the equivalent of IEDs on every target. The result is that the current actions by Anonymous may spark calls for stricter government controls on the Internet. That would be a loss for everyone.

Julian Assange has been arrested. And I have to agree that being in British custody is probably safer for him than being on the lam. The content on WikiLeaks has been mirrored many times and is even safer. I think it's time for the courts to start sorting out the realities: Is there a new line to be drawn in regard to freedom of the press?

Excerpt from Ron Paul's speech to the House on Wikileaks:

Number 1: Do the America People deserve know the truth regarding the ongoing wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Yemen?

Number 2: Could a larger question be how can an army private access so much secret information?

Number 3: Why is the hostility directed at Assange, the publisher, and not at our governments failure to protect classified information?

Number 4: Are we getting our moneys worth of the 80 Billion dollars per year spent on intelligence gathering?

Number 5: Which has resulted in the greatest number of deaths: lying us into war or Wikileaks revelations or the release of the Pentagon Papers?

Number 6: If Assange can be convicted of a crime for publishing information that he did not steal, what does this say about the future of the first amendment and the independence of the internet?

Number 7: Could it be that the real reason for the near universal attacks on Wikileaks is more about secretly maintaining a seriously flawed foreign policy of empire than it is about national security?

Number 8: Is there not a huge difference between releasing secret information to help the enemy in a time of declared war, which is treason, and the releasing of information to expose our government lies that promote secret wars, death and corruption?

Number 9: Was it not once considered patriotic to stand up to our government when it is wrong?

Java has hurt me in the past, but it seemed like Mapnik's WMS server would require a bunch of hacking to do what I wanted, allow people to do dynamic GeoSQL queries from web pages, and I'd heard great things about GeoServer, and I said to myself "I know that Java usually indicates that people don't know how to make comprehensible software, but this time could be different", and downloaded GeoServer.

After much struggle, I got it running (Actually, that's not true, it ran out of the box on my laptop, but was painful to get running on my server. Who knows why? It's Java, after all...). And I imported my .shp file, which appears to be in EPSG:2226, and wrote up a little OpenLayers JavaScript code, and... my lines didn't match up with Google Maps layers. Worse, they crawled around with my zoom, if I got really close they were within a block or so, if I zoomed back out they were miles off.

So I tried using ogr2ogr to reproject into EPSG:900913 and EPSG:4326, re-imported, and I'm getting what looks like the same results.

And my experiments to try to mix data from OpenStreetMap always end up with me looking somewhere off the west coast of Africa. Which I assume is due to OSM using EPSG:900913 rather than "spherical mercator".

And what the hell is the difference between EPSG:900913 and EPSG:3857?

Anyway, for Christmas this year I want a pony and a baby doll and the procedure to use OpenLayers to show Bing, OSM and Google base layers, and my own layers that start out as these shape files, preferably from a PostGIS query because then I can do interesting stuff with the data.
