1. Via Taegan Goddard I see that Michael Kinsley is leaving the LATimes "on a bitter note." I don't know what his ambitions are these days, but I can't imagine wanting to part with him as a publisher -- he's one of the freshest voices around, and the only guy I can think of who's played such a shaping role for MSM twice.
2. Will Baude links to this explanation of the CTA's food and drink policy. After reading Ms. Brown's commentary, though, I'm not convinced there's actually going to be a policy of enforcement here. We'll see.
3. This pedometer is insanely useful for plotting running routes.
4. Via Metafilter (which btw has been absolutely glorious on Katrina), here's a great piece on the Times-Picayune's continuing coverage of the hurricane. Maybe reporting isn't as dangerous as policing at a time like this, but the dedication of the Times-Picayune staff has got to be one of the most heroic notes of this catastrophe.
