| UK rejects tourists visas for stupid reasons Mark Frauenfelder:
Katie says: "From the BBC News website, this report highlights some of the ridiculous, yet common, reasons for UK visa refusal -- including 'planning a holiday for no particular purpose other than sightseeing.'"
The government goofballs who reject tourist visas for no good reason also delight in using confusing language to explain why tourist visas were rejected:
The provenance of the funds depicted is not evidenced allied to other financial commitments.
You have failed to complete pivotal areas of Section 6.

| China's manufacturing cities - photo gallery Cory Doctorow:
Wired News is sporting a gallery of photos of the vasty manufacturing cities of China, eye-melting panoramas of endless assembly lines and dormitories and cafeterias. I just attended a jaw-dropping talk by Chumby's Bunnie Huang about his tours of Chinese factories on the way to setting up Chumby manufacturing and every slide inspired a fresh weirdness. For example, in one factory's cafeteria, visitors |

| Breaking: Transformers movie "kind of sucks" Xeni Jardin:
BoingBoing reader Jay was one of many old-school Transformers fans who wrote in to share the breaking news that Michael Bay's bloated epic is lovely, but kind of sucks:
I went to a media screening of Transformers last night, and I'll give it a full set of 10 shiny, golden stars for the most brilliant design and amazing effects I think I've ever seen. Now I'll quickly take them all |

| Antibacterial products may be bad news David Pescovitz:
Some popular antibacterial hand gels, sponges, household cleaners, and even mattresses may actually contribute to the spawning of superbugs. From Scientific American:
Unlike (soap and other) traditional cleaners, antibacterial products leave surface residues, creating conditions that may foster the development of resistant bacteria, Levy notes. For example, after spraying and wiping an antibacterial cleaner over a kitchen counter, active chemicals linger behind and continue to kill bacteria, but not necessarily all of them.

| Wikipedia vandal accidentally predicted Chris Benoit murders Cory Doctorow:
A Wikipedia vandal inadvertently set off a nationwide conspiracy craze when he edited the entry for Chris Benoit, a pro wrestler who murdered his family. The anonymous vandal coincidentally edited Benoit's entry to say that Benoit had murdered his family several hours before the news became public, sparking speculation that the murder had been some kind of setup.
Now the vandal has confessed, saying that he'd put the murder accusation in as an unfortunately timed joke.
Nonetheless, I feel incredibly bad for all the attention this got because o |

| Profile of steampunk maker Jake von Slatt Cory Doctorow:
Today's Wired News has a feature on Jake von Slatt, a steampunk maker whose many projects have been frequently featured here on Boing Boing. Wired has an article and a lovely gallery of von
Slatt's creations.
"The Victorian era was really the last era in which a high school graduate was given the complete set of scientific concepts to fully understand the technology of the age," von Slatt says. "Because of this, part of what I wanted to do was to co-opt the term 'steampunk' and imbue it |

Back in March, I blogged the UK Open Rights Group's call for scrutineers to investigate irregularities in the use of electronic voting machines in Britain. Now, ORG has compiled the results of your observations and released a report. The news isn't good: evoting can't be trusted.

| Toddler in MENSA David Pescovitz:
Georgia Brown of Hampshire, England, has a 152 IQ and is the youngest member of MENSA. She's two years old. Brown's parents noticed how clever she was after she started crawling at five months, walking at nine, and chatting with people by the time she was eighteen months old.
From the BBC News:
(Middlesex University) psychologist Joan Freeman, who tested Georgia, said she thought the toddler could have scored even higher but needed a nap after 45 minutes of work...
She told the BBC: "She is two years, nine months - not very much older th |

| Lawyer to RIAA: Sue the First Twins for copyright violations! Cory Doctorow:
Mitchell Silverman, an attorney in Florida, noticed in a recent news-story that GW Bush's twin daughters presented him with a mix CD of exercise music for Father's Day. Since the record industry maintains that making and distributing mix CDs is a copyright infringement, Silverman sent their legal offices a letter on letterhead asking them to sue the first twins for "stealing music."
