[Apple's Q4 results](http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/22/apple-shipped-1-119-000-iphones-in-q4-2007/) The countdown to the first idiot suggesting these results suggest Apple is in trouble starts now...

Almost here

[Xbox360 game Mass Effect is finished](http://www.joystiq.com/2007/10/22/mass-effect-is-done-and-you-still-cant-play-it/). It comes out November 20, so you should probably expect some interruption to blogging around then.

Pills as food coming soon

[Molecular Gastronomy supplies](http://www.lepicerie.com/catalog/category_288_FINE_FOODS_Molecular_Gastronomy_page_1.html). The idea, basically, is to make meals out of powders. Very strange, very intriguing.

Batman-onomics

[Batman defends Ludwig Von Mises](http://www.reason.com/news/show/30539.html%7C). Unfortunately I can't find a copy online. I'd love to see it, if nothing else to see if the economics is right...

Reading on screen

[Every novel on the Booker prize short list may be made available electronically](http://entertainment.timesonline.co.uk/tol/arts_and_entertainment/books/article2681255.ece). Interesting if it happens, but I suspect it'll be loaded down with piracy protection.

Election07: Debatable edition

*Announcements*: ALP announces a [Increase in the child care tax rebate rate](http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2007/10/21/2065345.htm). Not much today, because of the great debate this evening. (Which I will *not* be watching).

Not for the squeamish

[This designer took 'Cuckoo Clock' too literally](http://watchismo.blogspot.com/2007/08/watchismo-times_29.html). Seriously, don't look if you're sensitive, it's a bit unpleasant. Not gory, just vivid.
