Mark Bittman on what's wrong with what we eat | Video on TED.com
“In this fiery and funny talk, New York Times food writer Mark Bittman weighs in on what’s wrong with the way we eat now (too much meat, too few plants; too much fast food, too little home cooking), and why it’s putting the entire planet at risk.” видео дрочит смотреть домашнее порно

“Those who can give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.”

a fitting quote as FISA passes (with a yay vote from Obama no less – political expediency is enough to make you want to puke sometimes)
Cognitive Surplus and Clay Shirky at Web 2.0 Expo SF 2008
I ran into this talk today via a post at crowdsourcing.com and was reminded of how powerful Clay’s thoughts were the first time I saw them during the Web 2.0 Expo.
According to Clay, the equivalent man power of 2,000 wikipedias a year is spent watching TV. This ‘cognitive surplus’ – an extension of human boredom – is transitioning into increased engagement via the web and related technologies.
, a guest author at crowdsourcing.com, has some great insights regarding surplus time and how it can potentially be applied to greater ends than boredom. I’m also super interested in his project Spot.us – crowdfunded citizen journalism – more on that later as I’ve been thinking about it all afternoon since the seredipity of the web brought it to my attention.
Like David, I’ve seen the change away from passive consumption of entertainment first hand in my own father’s post-work routine; where he used to come home and camp in front of the TV to unwind, much of that time is now spent behind the computer and, even if it’s now spent watching YouTube, is unquestionably more engaged. I’ve even gotten rid of my cable box and connected a computer to the TV.
How to understand the financial crisis (via NPR/TAL)
NPR News/This American Life hit it out of the park again. After their critically acclaimed “Giant Pool of Money ” episode, they’re back with a show that lays all of the pieces of the current financial mess on the table including the events of this last week and the passing of the Paulson Plan. It is, without question, the best reporting I’ve found.
