Oh, Internet why do you include so many interesting things?

The amount I care about computers has been decreasing fairly uniformly for about 5 years but I still enjoy reading the ars technica mac os x review when it comes out. This is a great 15 page rant about operating system design and graphical user interfaces. This latest one includes some wonderful pictures including this leaning tower:
My god, it’s horrible.
The poll bludger is looking at my home town seat of ‘Page‘. Who knew that 60% of Alstonville voters were nationals?
Strange maps lives up to its name. I like this map of a Belgium-dominated Europe.

According to http://www.bored.com/crazylaws/index.htm women in Tucson may not wear pants. Is this true?

Rather than make some amusing comment about my attempting to enforce this law I will refer you to the Snopes page on the issue:
“No, Tucson has no such law. A century ago, it was a misdemeanor offense there for a person to appear in public in the dress “not of his or her sex,” a law which presumably could have been applied to women wearing pants, but neither women nor pants were specifically mentioned.”
It is my understanding that the law about businesses being required to give water to anyone who aks does exist and for very good reason.
