Death of the super model
As Sweden takes over the presidency of the EU, the sad truth is that its famed social state is failing Sweden still sets hearts racing across Europe. The “Swedish model” might bring up thoughts of a nubile blonde rather than a strong social state, but it is in the latter incarnation that my home country stirs the passions of left-leaning Europeans. Whatever Sweden does must be right,...

Ich werde ein Berliner: 13. Techno music
In the beginning of Techno music and its “rave” party culture around the year 1990, German people were mere consumers of Techno music, a new trend they picked up, you guessed right, relatively late. But boy, did they get into it. Being efficient party planners, Germans created the world’s biggest outdoor party, the “Love Parade”, and soon many German people were into...
#18 Awareness « Stuff White People Like
An interesting fact about white people is that they firmly believe that all of the world’s problems can be solved through “awareness.” Meaning the process of making other people aware of problems, and then magically someone else like the government will fix it. This belief allows them to feel that sweet self-satisfaction without actually having to solve anything or face any difficult...
Poor farmers to guard Earth's crop riches
The Quechua are among the first recipients of a new global fund, established last week, to make poor farmers the custodians of all the world’s threatened crops. Importantly, the move could provide valuable options should the world find itself in another food crisis. The Peruvian farmers will be paid to look after the most diverse...

“What this declaration does do is remind the world that flu viruses like H1N1 need to be taken seriously. Although we have not seen large numbers of severe cases in this country so far, things could possibly be very different in the fall, especially if things change in the Southern Hemisphere, and we need to start preparing now in order to be ready for a possible H1N1 immunization campaign...

Another great day of Chinese food faux pas →
slants:
This guy started following me on Twitter and I was pleasantly surprised to discover that he isn’t a bot or porn star.
Check out his blog for the full run-down of Chinese restaurant ordering awesomeness, but my personal favorites off the menu include:
Cowboy meat seems to be v. popular.
French Crips. Mais oui.
No comment.
And last but not least, my favorite:

The Wages of Sin: “Removing oneself from the...
The old way at looking at sin, back when the Church ruled your entry into the afterlife, was to avoid it at all costs. Even if you have to shut yourself up in a tower, half-dead with starvation, celibate and lonely, at least you would definitely get into heaven. There were plenty of crazy people who were called “saints” despite leading completely useless lives. “He who acts renounces purity,”...
Adaptation: On Literary Darwinism (Page 4)
Finally, these common-sense conclusions about beauty, love and the death of the author are noteworthy only in relation to the nonsense of Theory. That such arguments need to be made in the first place only shows what a pass we have come to. If literary Darwinism does nothing more than discredit the old paradigm, it will have done very well indeed. via thenation.com ‘×,post’d ÷...

The End of the Affair
“Pointy-headed busybodies of the environmentalist, new urbanist, utopian communitarian ilk blamed the victim. They claimed the car had forced us to live in widely scattered settlements in the great wasteland of big-box stores and the Olive Garden. If we would all just get on ou Schwinns or hop a trolley, they said, America could become an archipelago of cozy gulags on the Portland, Ore., model...
