So, the FTSE has climbed back over the 5000 mark for the first time since September 2008. Several major European economies are recording growth and, as the Financial Times notes in last Saturday’s special report, big corporate mergers are back and “glasses are clinking again in the City of London.” Well, huh-fucking-rah.

The “iTunes LP” is just one of the many new iTunes features revealed yesterday during Apple’s announcement at their ” It’s Only Rock and Roll”- themed event. But the iTunes LP, unlike the other new features which get to exist as simple and fun enhancements in iTunes 9, has a heavy burden on its shoulders. It’s supposed to revitalize the music industry by encouraging consumers to once again purchase entire albums as opposed to single tracks.

Refocussing a single light-field photograph Last time I blogged about the interesting talk given by Will Wright at this year’s SIGGRAPH conference. Will’s talk was a spell-binding overview of current visualization and entertainment trends, and the role that human psychology and aesthetics plays within it. However, SIGGRAPH also has a more facts-and-numbers side – there actually is an academic conference hiding between all the glitz and glamour

After poking around Stand For Marriage Maine’s newly spruced up website for a few hours, a few observations have come to mind: (1) The National Organization For Marriage ’s fingerprints are all over this thing! Some of the copy is lifted directly from past NOM press releases, and most every bit of information (and stock phrases like ” whether we like it or not “) are pulled right out of the Maggie Gallagher playbook. So make no bones about it: There’s all kinds of out-of-state influenc

From Robert L. Smith in the PD: On a day the governor announced that Ohio’s economic recovery had begun, hundreds of people from the region’s minority communities signaled their desire to be a part of it.
