SCHWARZENEGGER CALLS FOR "rebranding" the GOP. Maybe they should revive some "heritage brands." It's all the rage!

ERIC SCHEIE: "I don't like the way Sundays have become the official day for media to play preacher and promote morality -- especially the newly manufactured morality which appeals to the non-churchgoers with unacknowledged spiritual needs."

MICHAEL YON: "Many readers have complained that Michael Moore, in the conduct of his latest crusade against whatever he is against this month, has illegally used one of my photos on the banner of his website. Mr. Moore is not the first to have done so, and my readers can get pretty upset when it happens. My lawyer has demanded that Mr. Moore take it down."

SUCCUMBING TO PEER PRESSURE: Ann Althouse's fisheye photos -- and the arrival of a couple of gadget-review checks from Popular Mechanics -- finally convinced me to order the Nikon Fisheye lens that she's been using. (Recycling gadget-review money into gadgets -- a virtuous circle, or evidence of a problem? I choose option one!)

It's a swell lens, and smaller than I expected. I also downloaded the "Hemi" plugin for Photoshop, which lets you remove the fisheye effect and just turn it into a 180-degree wide angle. Sometimes you want the fisheye effect, of course, but sometimes you don't. For a $29.95 download, it was worth it. Example (from the Northshore Brasserie ) below; unaltered original image on left, de-fisheyed version on right:

SHOOT THE MESSENGER: "In the end, well-placed stooges like Anil Patani are a greater danger to free societies than a cheerfully straightforward hater like Abu Usamah." Just don't pretend that they care about "antiiscrimination" or "human rights" or any aspect of actual civilization whatsoever.

PELOSI: POORLY RECEIVED in Iraq. The welcome in Syria was warmer. But hey, she's catching on.
