McLaren out of '07 championship and fined $100m

The FIA have announced that McLaren will not score constructors’ championship points this year and face an unprecedented $100m fine for their role in the espionage case.
However Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso will still be allowed to score points towards the drivers’ championship.
McLaren will also not be allowed any constructor’s representatives on the podium for the rest of the year. #

Wow! On the face of it, these seems very harsh and I'd be interested to know the details of what happened.

Have you ever made cheap, pointless TV before?

Really, how does this kind of hokum ever make it onto TV?

Have our souls lived before?  Do you believe in life after death?  Have you ever met someone and been convinced you have met them in a previous life?  ... Have I Been Here Before? offers celebrity guests the chance to see if they have lived before ... in a past life. The celebrities will be regressed by experienced therapist Andrea Foulkes, and in the process they often reveal some deeply intimate thoughts about their current lives.

I can't see how it's any better than the 'psychic' TV channels.

Also,

their video player (which appears to be Flash based) doesn't work on a Mac. What's with that?

Court forces freetard to use Windows

"I had a meeting with my probation officer today and he told me that he has to install monitoring software onto my PC. No big deal to me; that is part of my sentence," he wrote on his Lost and Alone blog. "However, their software doesn't support GNU/Linux (Which is what I use). So, he told me that if I want to use a computer, I would have to use an OS that the software can be installed on." The monitoring software in question is only available for Microsoft Windows. Neither Linux nor a Macintosh running OS X would be an acceptable platform. #

Guerilla Biologist Bookstore Helpers

Science is a secular process and has nothing to do with the question of the existence, or the non-existence, of a God. It is thus relocated to the Philosophy shelves upstairs. "But what about Dawkins?!" I hear you cry. Dawkins is another well-known atheist, I agree, but he is best known as an evolutionary biologist and his books are strongly evolution-themed. #

Very funny, more than a little tempted to try this myself. Via Kottke.
