Meditation Flash Mob Sits in Middle of Mall on "Black Friday"
A surprise gathering organized over the Internet gathers to meditate in a mall on one of the busiest shopping days of the year.

DIY Gifts Are the Ultimate Remedy for Black Friday
Black Friday seems to be firmly polarized between those who
love the thrill of the hunt and those who view the year's biggest
shopping day as selling out family, holidays, and leisure time for a few
bucks less on imported goods. If you find yourself among the critics of
Black Friday why not strike out against that symbol of greed and do
something positive by making DIY gifts at least some of your friends and
family this holiday season. More »
BREAKING: Skeptics equated to pedophiles — Robyn Williams ABC. Time to protest.
Hat tip to Graham Young editor of Online Opinion. “That is worse

bad-taste joke by Alan Jones in October created a national storm. These
comments in the “science” show were supposedly considered, deliberate
and researched. This morning on the “science” show Robyn Williams
equates skeptics to pedophiles, people pushing asbestos, and drug
pushers. Williams starts the show by framing republicans (and skeptics)

Apparent inadvertent double entendre in satire of the week.

All things considered, there are relatively few things I find so

Once upon a time, America’s political leaders understood that a fair,
