  • The Guantánamo “Suicides”: A Camp Delta sergeant blows the whistle. Wow, this article sure makes it look like there was a cover-up. And if there was it’s bad bad bad. More here from Slate.
  • Our Basic Human Pleasures: Food, Sex and Giving. A good read for the selfishness crowd.
  • Hedging America by Robert Solow. The first two pages are a terrific introduction to economic concepts (just like in my cartoon book!).
  • Government Is in Peril as Scandal Rocks Ulster. Just in case you think it’s always older men and younger women.
  • Thomas Friedman bangs the drum on carbon pricing.
  • Naked Copenhagen: Temperature is increasingly at the mercy of the developing world.
  • E.P.A. Seeks Stricter Rules to Curb Smog

    C’mon Yoram B. You’re smarter than this. The Thomas Friedman journalistic schlock, I mean. I gag every time he gets up on that hot, flat and crowded soap box in spite of the fact that he occasionally gets something right, gets somethng right, gets something right, gets something right… Oh, sorry. I forgot that I said that already 847 times. Bless his energy hogging little soul. But, in spite of your somewhat quaint Seattle-style liberal naivete (my cheap shot), I have not completely given up on you yet. Cheers
