Marie Colvin of the Sunday Times and Remi Ochlik, a French photographer, were killed by Assad’s forces in the bombardment of Homs overnight. RIP.

If I had some money, I’d think about putting in a bid for this.

From shortformblog:

It took them a couple of months, but The Muppets have formally responded to Fox Business’ claims that they were brainwashing kids into hating big oil companies. (Which, mind you, they later apologized for.) Kermit’s take? “And besides, if we have a problem with oil companies, why would we have spent the entire film driving around in a gas-guzzling Rolls Royce?” 

It’s like books, okay? Believe it or not, people still read books on paper!
