OVERNIGHT LINKS (and don’t go waiting for any updates, either) ITEM: Headline of the week: “Spacetime May Have Fractal Properties on a Quantum Scale.” ITEM: Economic common sense from … Germany? ITEM: There is some justice in the world, after all: “Vindictive people make less money.” ITEM: On the other hand, this explains a lot: […]
Happy Earth Hour, everyone! I may leave these on all night! Naah. ..bruce w..
MORNING LINKS ITEM: Just when you thought things couldn’t get worse — The Drudge Report has the following as a developing story: Obama will call for increased oversight of ‘executive pay at all banks, Wall Street firms and possibly other companies’ as part of sweeping plan to ‘overhaul financial regulation’, NY TIMES reporting Sunday, newsroom […]
