Scandal, wha???

Confused by the layers and layers of controversy and scandal, crimes and misdemeanors that have swirled around the White House over the last 7 years? Wondering where the Department of Justice firings connect to Coercive Interrogation of Guantanamo Bay detainees? Just want to chuckle to yourself while thinking of John Ashcroft, Larry Craig and Mark Foley in a barbershop quartet together... wait... was Foley in the quartet? I think I'm wrong on that last one. Well if you're feeling the first two, check out Slate.com's supercool interactive chart of Bush Administration scandals! This clever little info graphic is not only fascinating and nicely designed, but informative as well.

The Girl Effect

This is cool. Speaks for itself, really. I just watched it on their website (there it's full screen!) and was impressed enough by both the message and delivery that I really wanted to pass it along. Enjoy.
