4 March 2008: Afternoon By The Morning News — 04 Mar 2008 A reminder for the non-tinkering millions: Slate's Delegate Calculator. Recent assassination plottings in the news. What happens when Björk shouts "Tibet! Tibet!" in Shanghai; Obama thanks Obama for support. Print for the commute: What's the difference between a road movie and a movie that just happens to have roads in it? And if you're up for another big read: the Vanity Fair White House/Fatah/Civil War story. And just one more: material-support laws and the department of pre-crime. Todd Levin's new chapter in his saga of game systems: Sega Genesis. Economists recommend soccer goalies don't budge from the center of the goal in order to stop penalty shots. All bow before the might of the placebo effect, the coolest strangest thing in medicine. Captivating argument for making the penny worth five cents. The argument for using cement in architecture. Shuffleboard and beyond: the best places to be a senior citizen. As we said this morning, in case you missed it: Rooster brackets are now available [pdf].
