Whooping cough now an epidemic in California | Bad Astronomy | Discover Magazine. This… this just pisses me off. A completely preventable disease that we nearly had wiped out in the US, and now it’s making a resurgence because people aren’t getting vaccinated like they ought to. It’s stupid and senseless.

Ragdoll Cannon
Courtesy of Cory Doctorow’s link over on BoingBoing, I stumbled across this hugely addictive puzzle game where you shoot ragdolls from a cannon in order to get them to the target. It’s got 20 levels and plays rather quickly. It’s pretty fun! Ragdoll Cannon 3
