Quicksilver administrator authentication

I use an OS X setup with separate admin accounts with sudo privileges. When I'm logged into my usual, non-sudo user account and want to install some shiny new app to /Applications/, I can do it with finder by entering the admin credentials. However, the equivalent action with Quicksilver just spits out an error message, rather than requesting authentication. Is there a way around this, or is this functionality locked out of the current version of Quicksilver?

Who removed my post and why?

I put a post under the bag review article that was removed. It was in response to a point the reviewer made, yet for commenting on it, my post was removed. An explanation is due. It was no more out of place than the reviewer's comment.

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »
