LAPTOPS IN THE CLASSROOM: And spying on students with Synchroneyes!

HAS OBAMA BEEN adequately vetted for the general election? Well, if the worst the Clintons can find is a kindergarten essay and a rather weak claim of Bidenization, I’d say yes . . . .

UPDATE: Reader Sean McNeill emails: “I will argue, Glenn, that he has been vetted from the left but not the right. . . . No one knows what will happen when he is targeted from the right, or even the center.”

THIS IS COOL: A solar cell that mimics photosynthesis to extract hydrogen from water without electrolysis.

A DECADE OF Jared from Subway. Has it really been that long? Give him credit — he’s kept the weight off and achieved world fame and “a ridiculously hot girlfriend.”

IS LIMITED GOVERNMENT POSSIBLE? A symposium over at Cato Unbound.

PRAISE FOR BUSH ON AFRICA, from Bob Geldof.

TURNING GREENHOUSE GAS into fuel.

MORE ON OBAMA’S GUN CONTROL RECORD: An affirmance by the Supreme Court in Heller would help him out of what’s otherwise a rather deep hole.

A DOUBLE STANDARD ON RECORD-KEEPING at the ATF?

THE OBAMA BUBBLE?

UPDATE: Well, somebody’s letting some air out of the Krugman bubble, anyway.

MORE: Hmm: “The more I watch Obama, the less I know about him.” Plus, a cool Living Colour reference.

CASTRO RESIGNS: Fausta has a roundup. Let’s transition to a free, democratic Cuba soon — I’d like to add it to my dive-destination list. . . .

JANUARY WAS wicked cold.

EXTREME MORTMAN: “What’s a tangible improvement for Iraq that John McCain might want to trumpet during the campaign? It’s got nothing to do with troop levels or timetables — but everything to do with Iraq’s economy. McCain should work on ways to improve Iraq’s stock market.”

DAMIEN CAVE on Iraq.
