Red Eye
A visual diary documenting a flight from New York to Berlin (with a layover in London).You have done enough air travel to understand. Ship to Homburg.Rail to Berlin. They feed you and you can try to sleep. Through the Canal might be real fun. It would take about ten days to two weeks.

Obama Backs India for Security Council Seat
In a speech to India’s parliament on the third and final day of his visit on Monday, President Obama called for India to be given a permanent seat on the U.N. Security Council.Far better than their current status but short of the superpower credibility they want. There should be more Sikhs in the officer corps. Aristocracy has never worked in India. Rot likes the heat. -

“The Unready Republicans - http://nyti.ms/ash83R The party of No needs more vocabulary”Ross Douthat views the situation with alarm. That is doing well, for him.He still has not understood the full glory of the conundrum the Bush administration left in its wake.Faith is a wonder.

While Warning About Fat, U.S. Pushes Cheese Sales
When sales of Domino’s Pizza were lagging, a government agency stepped in with advice: more cheese. This is the same government that, for health reasons, is advising less cheese.Wallace of Wallace & Gromet shows a good attitude.( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wallace_and_Gromit ) -

The Fed - Doing It Again
As Ben Bernanke, the Fed chairman, tries to use monetary policy to aid the economy, he is getting the Obama treatment — and making the Obama response.Less is something less than nothing.The structure is delightful. The concept, terrifies me. -

AuFeminin Looks to Expand Its Reach
“NYT: Glam Media's now #1 globally at 180 million - larger than Au Feminin & iVillage/NBC in Reach & Digital Revenue - http://nyti.ms/c6MQvI”If you wanted to try it:I think craigs list is a better model than Vouge with chat rooms.I am thinking in terms of an orientation sorted listing of content and advertising.A "For we who like girls" listing and a "For we who like guys" listing" Perhaps a "For we who like listing" listing for those who can't decide.You could use a double blind to protect privacy. Listers and content providers would be Listers, would have to have a mail drop on the site and sign their work with the mailing eddress Boxes with unread content would be deleted along with their attached listings The box content would receive an auto response. Lots of detail to be thought on. chat spaces are just one.
