Phillies to World Series, NIM on impacts, iPhone location apps & plumber Joe's latest pickups

It's definitely sunny in Philadelphia - Phillies make it to the World Series. Rays are one game away from beating the Red Sox to get there.
After hearing the presidential candidates discuss his life in such detail last night, plumber Joe might just consider something brash. Anyway, No Impact Man addresses a point made; if environmentalism is about use less stuff, make less impact, have less effect, might we all be better if we just committed suicide? Might not that be the easier solution?

Or maybe plumber Joe will go crazy trying to find out which iPhone location application fits him best.
With all of his new tax breaks maybe plumber Joe is in the market for Apple's latest line of brick (one solid piece of aluminum that saves materials and lightens the computer) laptops or a Google phone.
