I went to the Apple Store this morning to exchange another bad 15-inch MacBook Pro Core Duo battery. The battery was not even detected by the MacBook Pro, but as soon as I showed it to Johnny (an Apple Genius) it worked. I was baffled until we noticed that the battery was expanding. For sure it was immediately replaced. Thanks Apple.

…and now for something completely almost random, but they are not:

• Tesla Motors to Receive $465 Million Loan from the Government (OnCars) | The Model S would be priced around $50,000. The price is still too high for most consumers. Make it under/around $20,000 and I might think about getting one.
• Indiana denies request of “NO GODS” vanity plate; suit coming? (reddit) | Original blog post here, reddit has a better title. I really thought that there is some kind of separation between the Church and Government.
• Rhode Island Affiliates Banned From Amazon.com Sales (SlashDot) | Original article here. Rhode Island is the second State to get the Affiliates Axe from Amazon, following North Carolina. The whole taxation is getting a lot more complex.

There’s an elephant in the room, let’s talk about it:

• Discussion on reddit regarding the origins of The Moonwalk and other Michael Jackson’s dance moves.
• The un-untold rumor about the real father of Michael Jackson’s first two kids. Seriously, have you ever seen pictures of his frist two kids? They don’t resemble anything like Michael Jackson at all.
• CNN wants to freak you out by reporting that some people thought they saw Michael Jackson’s face in the cloud over New York skies.

OK, that’s enough of that. there are more but you can always read it somewhere else.
