So far, so good – but where the feature really shines is with its automatically-applied keyboard shortcuts.

Gregg Keizer, Computerworld

A security researcher criticized Apple for what he called "foot dragging" over the DigiNotar certificate fiasco, and urged the company to quickly update Mac OS X to protect users.

**** Beware Lion’s Versions Bug On Network And Non-HFS+ Volumes <http://tidbits.com/article/12483?rss>
Adam C. Engst, TidBITS

In short, then, Versions fails silently for documents stored on unsupported volumes if you either close without saving explicitly, or if you quit without closing explicitly. There is no rational justification for this behavior, so I have to assume it’s a bug.

"We need to pioneer and experiment," he says. "We are making products in the knowledge that some may not succeed. The academic side of my brain is happy as can be, because this is a completely open field. But the business side of me is terrified!"

Luke Leitch, More Intelligent Life

I have now spent two years embedded deep in female territory: in fashion, with a capital F. And I have started to get the hang of it. What has become clear is that fashion is to many women what sport is to many men: a pastime, a passion, a shared language, a form of self-definition, and a temporary escape from the opposite sex, all rolled into one deeply satisfying whole.

**** Just Dig A Hole <http://mysingaporenews.blogspot.com/2011/09/just-dig-hole.html>
Chua Chin Leng, My Singapore News

According to these experts, population growth is the answer to everything. Yes, fully agree. It will lead to rapid economic growth, rapid consumption of goods and services, resources and all things. It will lead to rapid destruction of the earth and rapid death. Try imagine how a glutton eats himself to death, growing to enormous size with an equally big appetite to eat more and more. When the world is furiously competing for limited resources to feed its growing population, one thing will surely happen.

**** Low Thia Khiang Won't Be Unofficial Leader Of Opposition <http://www.straitstimes.com/BreakingNews/Singapore/Story/STIStory_710662.html>
Elgin Toh, Straits Times

Speaking to The Straits Times one month ahead of the opening of the 12th Parliament, he said: 'Let's not kid ourselves. Either you have a leader of the opposition, or you do not have it. There's no need to have an unofficial leader of the opposition.'

**** Fear-mongering Before The Next Immigration Surge <http://flaneurose.blogspot.com/2011/09/fear-mongering-before-next-immigration.html>
Flâneurose

A greater outflow rate in the future means a greater rate of immigration (of new people who are then in their 20s and 30s) will be needed to compensate. This means that the flux through our proverbial cup is going to increase. In other words, our cup is going to leak very fast in the future, so the tap had better been turned on really fast too.

Try keeping the cup from being too full or too empty then.

**** Why Aljunied Lost: Zainul Abidin Rasheed <http://www.todayonline.com/Singapore/EDC110908-0000942/Why-Aljunied-lost--Zainul-Abidin-Rasheed>
Channel NewsAsia

Mr Zainul explained: "Aljunied 2011 has shown that while local politics and a local campaign are still important..., national issues and national politics have taken centre stage.

"Local programmes were insufficient to carry the PAP team. All the good work over the years and the excellent programme promised voters became almost irrelevant, hijacked by a call for a credible opposition presence in Parliament and a more listening government."
