These are my links for 7 Jun:

• “Are We Rome?” | Salon Books - Hollowed out by arrogance, corruption and a bloated military, the greatest empire the world has ever known fell. Is America doomed to follow in its footsteps?
• What was so special about the ‘57 Chevy? - Why an otherwise unremarkable car has a devoted following.
• Deluge of peanuts brings back ‘Jericho’ TV show - An online protest involving 20 tons of peanuts delivered to CBS Entertainment in New York and California has succeeded in bringing back the television show Jericho, which the network canceled last month.
• Apple, AT&T stores prepare for iPhone frenzy | CNET News.com - With a little over two weeks until the iPhone hits store shelves, Apple and AT&T retail sales representatives say they are preparing for a quick sellout and huge crowds on the June 29 launch date.
