Potpourri for Thursday
The Good:
The Bad:
- BDSM Black Canary Barbie - Yes, someone has their fishnets in a knot about Barbie wearing a Black Canary outfit -- even thought that outfit graced the covers of many Comics Code Authority-approved comic books for years, as well as showing up in a cartoon on TV for kids. Must be a slow publicity week ...
- Library of Congress: DRM a serious obstacle to archiving -- But, of course, we can't let something like preserving the nation's cultural heritage get in the way of protecting intellectual property from 1337 Hackers and Evil Pirates!
The Ugly:
- Ibruprofen is so evil, it must come from the Devil... - Because, of course, no week is complete without some insane Zero Tolerance school policy rearing its ugly head -- in this case, leading to a female student being strip searched because someone else claimed that she had gotten an Ibruprofin tablet from her ... y'know, like the ones you can get jars of 1000 of down at CostCo?
