Tuesday's Reads

Indiana vs. Purdue. It's been a long time since this game meant as much as it does tonight. Two top teams in the Big Ten battle tonight in Bloomington. Looks like DJ is a go, which is good. Kramer vs. Gordon. Painter vs. Last Stand Sampson. Let's get it on.
 
Open the lockbox, find stuff from Jack. They've released and displayed a safe full of JFK assassination items. It's been over 40 years since that day. [Atlanta Journal Constitution]
 
Another nation in the world. Kosovo declared its independence yesterday from Serbia. Nations around the world are split on whether or not to recognize the new nation. Most of the ones that won't have their own problems with breakaway republics and others seeking independence. The US welcomed Kosovo. [NY Times]
 
With the shuttle landing today, the plans for shooting down the hobbled satellite go into full effect. [NY Times]
 
So when guys say they're addicted to video games, it's probably true. At least more than women. [NY Times]
 
Hunting for sea urchins in the deep off the coast of southern California. If you have time, this is an interesting read. [LA Times]
 
Finding some good in the horrible internment of Japanese citizens during WWII. They helped jump start Indian lands in Arizona for electricity, water, and agriculture. Of course, they were forced to be there and do the work, but decades later some peace is found in the fact that their suffering helped the Indians there. This was not a good time in our country's history. [LA Times]
 
Check out the eclipse tomorrow night. Around 10PM it will be in full effect. [NASA]
 
Looks like their making moves on getting that tree sitter out of the tree in Berkeley. I linked an article on these people earlier last week. [KTVU.com]
 
Format battle over, Blu-Ray beats HD-DVD. [San Jose Mercury News]
