| Help EFF figure out what's in the FBI's secret docs Cory Doctorow:

Rod Serling action figure  Yes, that is a Rod Serling action figure. Toy collector Michael Crawford, aka Captain Toy, bought an ultra-limited Serling head and commissioned an artist to hand-paint it. The body, clothing, and telltale cigarette once belonged to an infamous X-Files character. You can read the whole story of the Serling figure... in the Twilight Zone. Er, I mean at Crawford's site.

| Action figure modders Cory Doctorow:
Some US high-schools are forcing students to choose "majors" in the ninth grade. This sounds similar to the UK system, where teens take O- and A-levels and seal their post-secondary education choices at the age of 15 or 16.

Photographer Bill Durgin's unusual figure studies  New York photographer Bill Durgin's figure studies are as beautiful as they are strange. From his artist statement: The gesture within each photograph is created through exploring my own physical limitations and collaborative improvisation with dancers and performers. Often I will come up with a pose and demonstrate it and then ask the model to repeat or respond to it. Each pose transmogrifies the [..] |

Scientists figure out structure of enzyme that causes plaque to stick to teeth  Scientists have modeled the structure of the enzyme used by the dirty rotten Lactobacillus reuteri bacterium to attach itself to tooth enamel and cause cavities.

| Terrorists figure out how to get America to attack itself: leave harmless, "suspicious" bags around According to the FBI, terrorists have noticed that Americans will go crazy and attack themselves (shutting down public spaces and transit, evacuating busy areas, subjecting innocents to search, detention and questioning) if you leave a "suspicious" bag in a public place.
