This was me earlier this week heading out o Cardiff. Trains are my favorite mode of transport. And my seriousness was because I was trying to make out the notes of Rachmaninov's second, second movement :-)

Who is in the market for an over the top insult that is guaranteed to stun, amuse and provoke your audience? I am sitting on a gem.

Orangutans are gentle creatures that hurt no one. They're being killed off for human greed. 

Something to think about next time you much that cookie made with palm oil.

Fantastic course - +Tina Selig and the Crash Course on Creativity from Stanford.  I am reading it like a book +Laura Gibbs :)  Chapters here and there, but her ideas are really fantastic.  Love this one - Question Assumptions - and ideas about brainstorming.

Summer is around the corner in the north and its time for totally inane songs that one can't get out of one's mind. This year I hope we get something charting from Israel or Greece.

I would like to get this for my kids (and frankly myself as well). Does anyone have any experience with something like this? Is it safe?

+Mike McLoughlin , it was many many years later when I heard the sound of a breaking heart in this song. When I sigh to this song, it is a very existential sigh. When I need to feel sad and blue, this is the song I listen to.

I am sorry I disagree. He should not have said that. +Barack Obama should have said its the most important thing under the sun and a proper resolution should be the nations first priority. Use sarcasm dude. I burns like you wouldn't believe.

Some of the best song smithing I have heard in a while. Her style is singularly original, gentle and caressing but at the sometime, dark and incisively penetrating, like a gentle orb of light being switched on in a comforting envelope of the night sky.

"Interest-rate swaps are a tool used by big cities, major corporations and sovereign governments to manage their debt, and the scale of their use is almost unimaginably massive. It's about a $379 trillion market, meaning that any manipulation would affect a pile of assets about 100 times the size of the United States federal budget."

Hah - extremely influential paper used as basis for severe austerity-centric financial policies in recent years, heavily cited by for example Paul Ryan turns out to have huge errors based on statistical malpractice and, get this, fumblefingered Excel spreadsheeting.  I’ve linked to Yglesias who links to Konczal at http://www.nextnewdeal.net/rortybomb/researchers-finally-replicated-reinhart-rogoff-and-there-are-serious-problems and that’s worth reading too, but Yglesias hammers a should-be-obvious point about correlation and causation.

This would be funny if the human cost wasn’t so high.  Next time a politician screams about the urgent need to slash services because OMG DEBT RATIO, just ask to see their citations.

The sounds of eastern and western Mediterranean magically comes together in this soulful Hebrew song. And for the life of me, I can't explain why it reminds me of a Japan.
