If this video doesn’t get you going, you’re not wired up right.
One Million Apple UUIDs Leaked⇢
Whoops. Also, the FBI?
The Read & Trust Magazine⇢
Aaron Mahnke, on the R&T Blog:
Over the last few months, it has become clear that this amazing content deserves more than the limitations of an email newsletter. Larger text, gorgeous layout, and a much more friendly payment system. We can do better.
Enter the Read & Trust Magazine. Rather than the weekly emails that you’ve been used to, the Read & Trust Magazine will now be a monthly collection of articles from five contributing members. The text is still the star, but the content will be delivered in a way that is better for everyone.

‘You Say You Respect Life?’⇢
My friend Randal Cooper, whose life has also been touched by brain cancer, on healthcare reform:

University of Memphis: The Daily Helmsman to Have Funding Restored⇢
According to the paper’s Twitter account:
BREAKING NEWS: @UofMemphis restores the @DailyHelmsman’s funding after an investigation revealed content was a factor in the funding cut. New funding method will be put into place before next fiscal year’s allocation cycle. Full investigation report has not been released, yet.
While the full report isn’t out yet, I’m guessing this isn’t over yet. A university can’t have a committee cut something like this and not be punished.
Apple Rejecting Apps With Ripped Off Icons?⇢
