[18:20 ET]  A day after releasing Mac OS 10.1.5 through its Software Update mechanism, Apple posted installer packages for normal download: Mac OS 10.1.5 [for Mac OS 10.1.3 and 10.1.4] and Mac OS 10.1.5 Combo [for Mac OS 10.1, 10.1.1 and 10.1.2]. (See Apple's Mac OS X Update Chart for a list of the various patches to Mac OS 10.1.)
  Also posted were Mac OS X Language Support Updates for Mac OS 10.1.5 and a QuickTime 5 Reinstaller that "removes QuickTime 6 Public Preview and restores the version of QuickTime provided in Mac OS X 10.1.3 or greater." [Macintouch]

Talking with a British friend a few minutes ago, he told me of a recent story, where US President George Bush asked Fernando Henrique Cardoso, the President of Brazil, if there were blacks in Brazil. He was quickly set straight by Condoleeza Rice. "Brazil probably has more blacks than the USA. Some say it's the Country with the most blacks outside Africa," she said. The story appeared in Der Spiegel, and quite a few weblogs, but appears to have not been carried by US publications. Why?  [Scripting News]

Americans don't want to know what a moron their president is, or that he has (in Reagan's case) Alzheimer's.
