Illness and links

Bah, not been a great fortnight - I found myself at the walk-in centre in Hornsey Central twice in 8 days.

Anyway, you've suffered through that (or possibly skipped it entirely) here are some links:

Blizzard, the people who make the 1-million-paying-player World of Warcraft, have decided that in order to cut down on poor behaviour, people will be forced to use their real names (IE the ones on the credit cards) on the forums, and eventually the game itself. This comment drops a lot of science, and also says stuff that rarely get said enough.

Best. Politician Name. Ever

"Scientists were unsure why male Mexican mollies wear an extravagant moustache-like structure on their top lip."

And finally: there is a thing! called Karaoke Circus! Where comedians and stars go, to sing songs with a live backing bands (some of them also comedians), and then strange_powers wins. Anyway, here is The Thick of It's Chris Addison, singing most of Left to My Own Devices.
