Update: There’s another great track from Angus and Julia Stone at Triple J, it’s at the same URL as the previous track, so if you missed that one I guess it’s too late. The new one’s also nice and relaxed, although a bit less country and a little more funky.
If you’re looking to relax, check out this tune by Angus and Julia Stone, grab it from Triple J.
It might be a bit country, but hey that’s cool these days, and boy is it nice and chill.
They’ve got a bunch of other free downloads too.

The Michaels are uniting.
All bodies adorned with this name should join, as it it possibly the greatest name in the world.
The name’s meaning is "one who is like God." So if you’re godlike then this is definitely the group for you.
Come and join us .. if you meet the strict entry requirements.

If, like me, you’ve always found Gnuplot a total freakin’ pain in the you know where, then you need to grab quickplot. It probably can’t do all the fancy whatsits that Gnuplot can, but for basic stuff it’s a total no brainer and just works.
If you’re a Debianista or Ubunterian you should be able to just apt-get it.

I couldn’t help but laugh at this:
Web Results 1 – 10 of about 227,000 for #### sucks. (0.09 seconds)
I think that a quarter-of-a-million publicly expressed opinions can
be rounded up to “everybody”.
