Sarah Palin, VP nominee (11)

librarian.net (28) permalink
I try to keep “who to vote for” politics pretty well off of this blog and prefer to discuss politics in general and better and worse strategies for promoting libraries in whatever political climate we happen to be in. People acutely interested in high level politics in the US who also work in libraries may be interested in this Time magazine article about Sarah Palin. I was very interested in this paragraph.

Spin Magazine's Profile On Matthew Sweet (1)
permalinkMatthew Sweet is known for writing immaculate power-pop. He is also known for having his hit song, early ‘90s stonecold classic "Girlfriend," on Rock Band II. For which he is more renowned largely depends (sadly) on age. But on August 26, Sweet will release a new batch of tunes with Sunshine Lies that just may convert curious gamers in to actual fans, as it's filled with the same sugary hooks and hummable guitar lines as ...Shared by Apollo L (8)

The Vegan’s Hundred (1)
permalinkNews travels pretty fast in the blogosphere, and the latest craze that’s been showing up on food blogs far and wide has been The Omnivore’s Hundred, a list of 100 foods that all omnivores should eat at some point in their lives.

Not only the material universe, but also our life-forms, our spirituality, and everything in the range of dependent co-arising, including all forms of natural perception and all levels of cultural complexity, have developed through time.This means that, instead ...Shared by Apollo L (8) WH (26)- WH said: "Evolution is not simply birth/death, as in the classical, cyclic model of samsara.
