Let's do it by the numbers...
And this country is effectively in charge of the world:
4 : Rank of the United States among countries considered to be the greatest threats to world peace according to a 2003 Pew Global Attitudes study (Israel, Iran, and North Korea were considered more dangerous; Iraq was considered less dangerous).

Ah, it all looks devine. Why not have a look yourself? Make sure you have a very very close look at the 3rd picture down.
I probably don't need to tell you Manic spotted this before I did.

Dave is in NY
You may be wondering why the Republicans decided to hold their convention in New York.
According to an explanation issued by the GOP site-selection committee: ``We considered such factors as hotel space, meeting facilities, transportation and the financial incentives offered by the city. Then we smoked crack.''
That's the only way it makes sense. Because if you're looking for cities that would be appropriate hosts for a large national gathering of Republicans, New York is going to be pretty far down your list, somewhere below Havana.

Apple iMac, next-gen
Someone at Apple has been chugging their Design Pills over the past year or so.
The new iMac is out and is being hailed as a design classic. It does look good, but not as revolutionary as the previous 'half-football' design. In fact, once you look past the gleaming white beauty of it all, its basically a tablet PC on a stand.
Apple do make beautiful stuff, but this isn't really that stunning to me. Still, right now, Apple could probably paint a turd white and it'd sell.
