Literary Kicks just blipped a blink on my (admittedly rusty) radar. So far I can say that I like that fact that Levi Asher actually reads what he reviews.
Ah . . . and I’d also like to add Dan Lockton’s Architectures of Control | Design with Intent. I read it. Sean Salmon reads it. It’s good.

Yola Monakhov, “Once out of Nature” exhibit
This leaves the reader of Saddam’s diaries with a strong impression that may perhaps be aptly summed up in the words of US novelist F Scott Fitzgerald: “The secret griefs of wild unknown men… or at least the terms in which they express them, are usually plagiaristic and marred by obvious suppressions.”

Walt, when I was a young teenager, I took acting classes with a kid whose uncle was an undertaker. We rode the bus together from our tacky part of town to the fancy part of town.
Ricky worked for his uncle on weekends, and he was up in the air about whether he wanted to go into the business or to be an actor when he grew up.
What’d he do?
No idea, Rick. (Say, his name was Ricky.)
So I noticed. No kin that I’m aware of.

Please provide a regular politician fact check.
Not a detailed report. (Just name, district, Grade: F, Here’s what he did)
Just a regular (ie weekly) note on which politician was way way off on the facts, er, maybe he got caught spreading misinformation and should be held accountable.
For example there is a Republican from Iowa who two weeks ago announced some horrible fact about the proposed health care bill and this week he is recalling the “facts” differently.
People like him should be held accountable.
The media certainly wont hold them accountable because they dont have the money or interest in doing an investigative journalism. They’re too busy just trying to stay in business long enough to find a new business model that works.
Here’s an article on a politician who should be held accountable for what he says.

Bozos like this should not get re-elected.
We need a quick and easy way of listing the bozos so they dont keep getting re-elected.
As an employee I get an employee review every year.
We citizens should have an annual review of our politicians so we can weed out the bozos.
We don’t usually self-promote, but I thought clusterflockers might like this:

it was more than naked sushi – a return to the era…
The photo of the edge of space you posted reminded me of the work of an artist called Simon Faithfull. He created an ‘escape vehicle‘: a chair tied to a helium ballon with a video camera transmitting images live. The chair travelled up to the edge of space before the ballon burst.
His artworks all seem to be about escaping the earth but the most interesting thing is the way in which each project is destined to fail.

I help manage http://www.onlineeducation.net, an infographic based blog here in Seattle. We draw graphics that help people get a little more aware of the world and also throw in a lot of humor and offbeat interests at the same time.
We just finished our newest piece, “Why America is Fat” http://www.onlineeducation.net/why-americans-are-fat/ and it would be greatly appreciated if you can take a few minutes to take a look at it and consider it for your blog.
As you may be aware we are a new site and rapidly gaining artists, so expect a lot more content updated weekly.
Thanks again and I look forward to hearing from you with any questions/comments/concerns.

Santa’s got some serious pull: check the flag of some random country, and you’ll find it’s probably got lots of Christmas colors: 30% red, 30% white, and 10% green, on average!
