The headlines can be self-answering questions.
WTF: Why is Michelle Obama complaining about always being portrayed as "that angry black woman"? My guess is stated in an old African proverb: "the leopard can't change it's spots". In ghetto-speak: "you bees what you is". Seriously, even when she practices, such as for set-piece TV interviews with the lefty press, she can't seem to project sweetness and light, no matter how hard she might try. Why am I the Greatest Curmudgeon of All Time? 'Nuff said.
WTF: Why do we find John Edwards so particularly loathesome? No, we DO NOT need science, and I suspect the linked article was written to give Edwards some "victim status" by saying that he physically can't hold his mouth right. John Edwards is particularly loathesome because he is a smarmy, crooked, immoral liar, and an ambulance-chasing lawyer to boot. Case closed.
WTF: Yes, Virginia, there IS a covert war going on against the Mad Mullahs of Iran. It is a GOOD war, a MORAL war, the best than can be fought the best substitute for turning the place into glass. However, there may be more to the story. Iran HAS, in the past, offed their own key people in their nuke program when it began to appear to the Mad Mullahs that they were about to defect or they were becoming religiously unreliable (couldn't tell Halal from Haram).
WTF: Bully for Ford for designing an automobile that is so efficient, but to call it "100 MPG" is bullshit. There is NO such thing as as a "miles-per-gallon" measurement to electricity, that is strictly an advertising gimmick. The electricity use in an electric hybrid car should be stated in "kilowatts per mile" or some such actual statement of the consumption of ELECTRIC power when the car is operating on it's battery. If there were any truth in car sales, and there never has been, gas/electric hybrids would carry two ratings, one for operation on the gas engine, and one for operation on the battery. In most hybrids, the cars can combine power from both sources, but that is difficult to measure and impossible to state accurately without differential equations to solve (and I can't, can you?). The simple approach would just be to say that the car gets (x) mpg on gas and will go (y) distance on battery. Even that measurement would lack total accuracy, but that's OK by the marketing divisions. The Chevy Volt is STILL being advertised as going 40 miles on it's battery, but in real life, no one goes much more than 25 miles before the generator-engine cuts in. That's a 40% difference, but Chevy, a division of Government Motors, takes after it's parent, the US Government, and is encouraged to lie. It's a "green" thing, and the rulz say that it's OK to lie about "green".
