This looks like an exellent movie.

” The year is 2055, and climate change has wreaked havoc on the Earth and its peoples. One surviving man, an archivist played by Pete Postlethwaite, combs through a series of documentary footage from 2008: Iraqi refugee children in search of their lost brother, a wind-farm developer embroiled in a fight against an anti-wind power lobby in England, a young medical student in a poor village in Nigeria who aspires to American-style wealth and mobility. As he sifts through reels of film that juxtapose a widespread addiction to fossil fuels with an interconnected global economy, and as he does so in the environmentally-decimated world of 2055, the archivist pleads into to the camera, with befuddlement, regret, and a broken spirit, demanding to know why his (our) generation didn’t do something about climate change when we had the chance.”

“When a man partners with a strong woman, everyone benefits…. What I find remarkable is that more men around the globe don’t realize how much stronger they would be if partnered with a strong woman. Way too often and in too many corners of the globe, women are denied the opportunity to reach their full potential. It’s wrong and it’s backward, and of course, the irony is that by keeping women down, men lose out too.”

I didn’t watch it but apparently Kanye West dissed Taylor Swift etc and the world ended yesterday with hellfire from Jesus. Out of all this, came a funny wiki that came moments after the diss.

I really love this kind of graphics. I’m not sure what it is, but I think it reminds me of all the English folklores and fairytales I read as a kid.

My dream apartment since I was 20 years old has been the Kensington Place. Although I still can’t afford (one day!) this is what I would call the perfect mix of old (LOVE) and new (LOVE).

“Two months and a few surgeries later, he walked out of the hospital. He walks now without any aid and has had no major complications. The total bill, paid by his Indian insurance company, was less than $10,000. A similar accident in the U.S. would run up a $200,000 bill and bankrupt almost anyone who didn’t have health insurance.”

David Sedaris on the kookaburra : The New Yorker

David Sedaris on the kookaburra : The New Yorker:

I don’t read New Yorker as often as I like, mainly for two reasons:

1. The column width is too narrow, I’m scrolling all the time

2. It takes a lot of time, because all the goodies are over two pages long and slack time is limited in the office

But I truly enjoyed this light-hearted article, and this is the reason why we love David Sedaris.

“All parents must, sooner or later, come to terms with DORA THE EXPLORER and her alleged “cousin”, DIEGO. I’ve always found their relationship suspicious at best. And who is this kid, Diego, anyway? Where are his parents? How does he get to run around unsupervised in the jungle? And isn’t he too young to have a driver’s license? If not—then he’s certainly too goddamn old to be hanging out with Dora!!”

Religion and schools don't mix

Religion and schools don't mix:

atheistramblings:

Bjorn, of ABBA fame, thinks that Sweden has it bad with religious schools. He should visit Oz.

The Australian Federal Government is in the process of handing out AUD$2.6 billion to Australia’s religious schools. What many Australian’s don’t realise is that most of these schools, because of their religious status, as exempt from many state and federal anti-discrimination laws, so they can refuse to take in students, or hire teachers based on their religion, sexual orientation or just about anything else.

Some how having these institutions which suck money and talent out of the public education system and flaunt the laws of the land is supposed to make for a better country. I just don’t see how dividing your country into us, them, them and them is helpful.
