The Atlantic Turns a Profit, With an Eye on the Web
To turn a profit for the first time in decade, one of the nation’s oldest magazines had to, more than anything else, stop thinking of itself as a printed product.I am shocked they have moved to Washington. -

Breaking Up With Your Point-and-Shoot
“Sadly, this has happened in my life http://nyti.ms/h2oLHG”Yes, I have fall pictures. I will put them up. Things have been grey and ugly for a while. Mostly the head-cold has been taking its time clearing.

Out of Our Brains
Reaction is not thought. Really that is the whole point of training them in.
If it has been done well there is no reflection or thought there is just response. The thought is OK but the argument is badly flawed.

Facebook Wrestles With Free Speech and Civility
With Facebook’s prominence on the Web, the site’s role as an arbiter of free speech is likely to become even more pronounced.This looks like they do try. Anonymity or a false identity can be very useful. -
Gay Bashing at the Smithsonian
It still seems an unwritten rule in establishment Washington that homophobia is at most a misdemeanor.Homophobia has carried no sanctions until quite recently. -
Ron Paul, G.O.P. Loner, Comes In From Cold
Representative Ron Paul has spent 20 years in Congress voting against legislation he considered unconstitutional. Now, others are beginning to credit him with wisdom. Ron Paul is barking mad and his son is a close second. -
Time Warner Takes a Shot at Netflix
Netflix, now the envy of the media world, had a lucrative contract with Starz that gave it cheap content. That deal is expiring, and rivals are gloating. Greed. I can live without movies. I have done so. Libraries have collections. They all get there eventually. -
Reality Check
America must get out of the way so Israelis and Palestinians can see clearly, without any obstructions, what reckless choices their leaders are making. The war that is forming up will be a democratic war. The parties know the stakes. -

The Tinseling of the Lobby
“Via @NYTimes, the quintessential NY holiday story: a Christmas tree in your building's lobby? Menorah? Both, or none? http://nyti.ms/gEsBYI”My family's tradition is Christmas. It is a private space event, a solstace celebration as there is very little Christ here. New year is quiet, we don't seem to be able to get up much enthusiasm.I have a bunch of LED whites by the front door that make a nice cascade. my sister and youngest brother will show and impose Christmas and I will enjoy it. I am going to have to be clever about presents. I have assembled a collection of wind-up toys over the years but they have disappeared from the market.Public space . . . I think we leave it neutral. Tip the doorman and the super. Let it go at that.

Block Those Economic Metaphors
The idea that the economic “engine” is going to catch encourages policy makers to settle for sloppy, short-term measures when the economy really needs well-designed, sustained support. Paul Krugman has me convinced. -
Post-Meltdown, Banks Still Rule Derivatives Trade
In theory, clearinghouses exist to safeguard the integrity of the multitrillion-dollar derivatives market. In practice, they also defend big banks’ dominance. "Easy and broad is the road to hell." -
Fears Mount That China Is Headed for a Slowdown
Some economists worry that inflation, government debt and asset bubbles could stall China next year. Unsustainable debt aka asset bubble. -
