This is one of those things that make me say, “Huh? Why was this disabled?”

If you’re using Firefox, it’s set to deliver muted colors in photos. But you can fix that.

First, copy this text (so you can paste it in a moment):

gfx.color_management.enabled

Now, in the address bar, enter about:config

(If prompted, tell it yes, you know what you’re doing.)

Paste the text you just copied into the “Filter” box at the top. The long list will be replaced by that one key.

Double-click it, which turns it to “true.”

Exit Firefox and restart.

Now go check out some photos.

A middle-school science teacher and religious nut branded crosses in some students’ arms. He was not reached for comment, but a friend of his was:

“With the exception of the cross-burning episode … I believe John Freshwater is teaching the values of the parents in the Mount Vernon school district,’’ Dave Daubenmire says.

Trying to download Firefox 3, but the servers are overloaded with the demand!

I just noticed this on my site. There’s a McCain ad that asks “Is it OK to Unconditionally Meet With Anti-American Foreign Leaders?” (The answer, by the way, is yes, of course it is. Meetings shouldn’t have conditions. Agreements, yes, but if we imposed conditions on any anti-American leader, we wouldn’t have a lot of people talking with us.)

But that’s not the problem. The problem is that it appears you’re given a choice — a Yes box and a No box. But the boxes are fake. No matter what you click, you go to the same place.

To me, that’s slimy – that’s the kind of crap you expect from “Click the monkey to win a prize” ads, not from a candidate for President.

I guess McCain feels he needs to trick people into clicking through to his site.

I think a complaint to Google Ad Services is in order.

Put a sign on a coworker’s chair reading “What were you thinking?! SEE ME NOW!” Leave off any signature.

Oh, waily, waily, waily goes the blogosphere — the Washington Post, it was said, Photoshopped an image of Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson.

Let the hand-wringing begin. “[S]o if they’re willing to change the photo in a story, is there any reason to think that they wouldn’t change a story’s facts or exaggerate things?! Mainstream media is turning into a complete farce” wrote one commenter.

Problem 1: The photo wasn’t in the Washington Post; it was in the paper’s free weekly pub, Express. But saying “Doctored photo in the Washington Post!” sounds better.

Problem 2: The photo was real. It wasn’t Photoshopped.

Chris Combs, photo editor at the Washington Post Express, weighed in on BoingBoing:

This is a Getty photo and I ran it verbatim. I don’t have time for Photoshop.

The one error to which our sports editor will likely admit is that it is credited to “Stuart Franklin/AP,” whereas it is “Stuart Franklin/Getty Images” that took the photo. Here is the picture on Getty’s site.

And thus, once again, we see the difference between bloggers and journalists. Bloggers don’t have to check facts, they can rely on the truthiness of something — their gut feeling — to make a claim of fraud. But a journalist couldn’t get away with just saying something is true because, gosh darn it, it feels true. He would have to, you know, check facts.

One of the more famous examples of this was when right-wing extremist Michelle Malkin claimed that the Associated Press had fabricated a source, citing her “contacts.” In fact, the source was real, the AP produced him, and Malkin issued a half-hearted apology.

Journalists check facts. And when they don’t, the whole world knows — right, Dan Rather?

So while bloggers can talk about the imminent demise of the mainstream media, they really don’t have anything better to replace it.

Every have your ears unclog (or “pop”) when you didn’t know they needed to? Whoa.

Dennis Kucinich introduced 35 articles of impeachment against George W. Bush in the House of Representatives today.

“In his conduct while President of the United States, George W. Bush, in violation of his constitutional oath to faithfully execute the office of president of the United States, and to the best of his ability preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States, and in violation of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, has committed the following abuses of power…”
