Mars landing / Romney ad / Mark Twain footage

Sunday, August 5, 2012
3 things to watch:

THE CURIOSITY ROVER'S LANDING ON MARS. Live at 12:31 a.m. CDT (early Monday morning).

THIS ROMNEY AD. About "two ill-fated words that Obama spoke at a fundraiser Monday."
* Then read this analysis by Jay Rosen: "Everything That’s Wrong with Political Journalism in One Washington Post Item."
* The case for an Obama landslide

THE ONLY EXISTING FOOTAGE OF MARK TWAIN. Filmed by Thomas Edison.
* Mental Floss: A crudely drawn penis almost derailed Huck Finn

Bonus thing (so sue me!): Video shows arrival of storm that shut down Lollapalooza (set to cool Arcade Fire song)
