Biggest Teahupoo Ever.
I don’t know what a Teahupoo is per se, but:
The French Navy labeled this day a double code red prohibiting and threatening to arrest anyone that entered the water.
…tells me I don’t want to be in one.

Looks Like Somebody Found Their Spine (…finally)
In a blog post, the Obama Administration responds to SOPA/PIPA:
Any effort to combat online piracy must guard against the risk of online censorship of lawful activity and must not inhibit innovation by our dynamic businesses large and small.
We must avoid creating new cybersecurity risks or disrupting the underlying architecture of the Internet.
We expect and encourage all private parties, including both content creators and Internet platform providers working together, to adopt voluntary measures and best practices to reduce online piracy.
Really glad to see that the opponents to SOPA/PROTECT IP are winning the war on this one; I hope they keep pouring it on to ensure these draconian measures never see the floor of either legislative body. Is it too much to ask that our representatives understand the technology, issues, and repercussions of the regulations and laws they try to introduce? Doesn’t seem unreasonable to me.

I think it’d be cooler in a clothes washer with some creative lighting, say, a couple glow sticks.

Polian(s) done in Indy
Bill Polian used his first draft pick in Indianapolis on Peyton Manning. Not getting an adequate backup for Manning at some point over the next 13 years cost Polian and his son, Chris, their jobs.
Sad to see, but this is what happens when you’re complacent. Everyone knew Payton wasn’t going to last forever, so why didn’t Polian ever put the effort forth to find a suitable successor? Strange.

Lavaflow 1 – Robert Trickey House by Craig Steely Architecture
This home and separate studio sits high on a lava flow overlooking the ocean. At night from the lanai, the red glow of Kilauea crater is visible reflected on the clouds. The house is entered from a cut lava terrace by crossing a bridge over the pool onto the 40′ x 40′ lanai.
Minimal, great views, and Hawaii? I’d love to wake up in this house every day.

Sneaky
Thinking we wouldn’t notice, Sawyer put her LeapPad in her nighttime bag and piled her blankets on top of it so we wouldn’t find it. Hilarious.
People Who Didn’t Get What They Wanted for Christmas
People Who Didn’t Get What They Wanted for Christmas:
“I’m so jealous of everyone with the white iPhone and I have this ugly black one”
“Other than getting a camero and a iPad this christmas sucks”
“Was i the only person who didn’t get an ipad? i mean i got a car but thats a different story all together :/”
Bet their parents didn’t get the kids they wanted for Christmas life. Sad. Read the comments for laughs.

Updated because Marsedit thought I meant “camera” instead of the little moron’s spelling of “camero”.
