Hello,
I noticed your link for NY Times is not working anymore.
You might want to use http://nytimes.blogspace.com/genlink.html - it builds weblog safe links, even if the article is old.
For the Fortified article you mention here, the safe link is http://www.nytimes.com/2006/01/22/magazine/22design.html?ex=1295586000&en=3d959371978d0ecd&ei=5090&partner=rssuserland&emc=rss
