Map Information
key the previous link: "The IMD is multivariate and includes numerous variables which were selected as both direct and indirect indicators of deprivation at Super Output Area (SOA) level. The IMD classification was created for seven domains which included income, employment, health and disability, education skills and training, barriers to housing and services, living environment and crime. A series of statistical techniques are conducted on these data including factor analysis , standardisation and exponential transformation. The results are presented as 7 separate domains of deprivation and one overall measure at SOA."

Cosma Shalizi — Review of James R. Flynn, What Is Intelligence? Beyond the Flynn Effect
"The Flynn effect seems to imply at least one of two things: either our ancestors of a century ago were astonishingly stupid, or IQ tests measure intelligence badly. Flynn contends that our ancestors were no dumber than we are, but that most of them used their minds in different ways than we do, to which IQ tests are more or less insensitive; we have become increasingly skilled at the uses of intelligence IQ tests do catch. Though he doesn't put it this way, he thinks that IQ tests are massively culturally biased, and that the culture they favor has been imposed on the populations of the developed countries (and, increasingly, the rest of the world) through a far-reaching, sustained and successful campaign of cultural imperialism and social engineering."

The Geography of Jobs (U.S.; 2004–2009)
note run up in jobs in socal and florida in 2004, 2005, impact of katrina in 2005, first crashes in michigan in 2006, job bubbles around d.c. and nyc (especially ca. 2007 in the latter), massive massive massive job losses in 2008 and 2009, particularly in los angeles (and then everywhere). also recall the whole thing about l.a. having the lowest water usage in 30 years in july--probably more because of having lost ca. 250,000 jobs in the prior 12 months, rather than because the city council passed conservation measures.

Notebooks
first stumbled across in 1997 I think, need to remember how interesting and valuable they are more often. edit: having stumbled around in them again for the past few days, somewhat bittersweet to realize that I find them way less worthwhile now than I did 10 years ago.
