Out on a limb
"That's where artists do their work. Not in the safe places, but out there, in a place where they might fail, where it might end badly, where connections might be lost, sensibilities might be offended, jokes might not be gotten."

yewknee.com - CloudFTP
CloudFTP is a proposed device to wirelessly share any USB storage device with an iOS or Android device. By creating an ad hoc network (or joining an existing one) it allows for the sharing of just about anything. The Kickstarter has garnered more than twice its intended goal but there's still 36 hours to go if you're wanting to get a deal on this little guy (will retail for $99 but on sale here for $69). It's a pretty brilliant little piece of technology and, I imagine, will improve as the web software / app comes together better.

The Minimalist Guide to Strength Training for Runners | Ask Coach Jenny
Simply stick to these five exercises and rotate versions of them over time. Start with the basic version and progress to the more intense versions of each. When your body adapts and it gets easy, switch it up. It's easy to remember, highly effective for the time investment, and will keep your strength routine fresh (and maybe even fun).

Abundance may seem to be antithetical to the idea of enough. But it is not in every case. It is only so when one is not doing enough with the abundance they have. When they are not allowing it to provide for others or being judicial custodians of the gifts they have.

Scripting News: On the net, your feed is you
My minimal blogging tool is called Radio2. Your feed is the center of the universe for Radio2. It's used to connect to Twitter, and we hope to many other tools.

It's the key to bootstrapping a network of independent users who communicate not only through Twitter, but a new network of Twitter-like tools.

Think of it this way: On the net, your feed is you.

Scripting News: The Un-Internet
"Every time around the loop, since then, the Internet has served as the antidote to the controls that the tech industry would place on users. Every time, the tech industry has a rationale, with some validity, that wide-open access would be a nightmare. But eventually we overcome their barriers, and another layer comes on. And the upstarts become the installed-base, and they make the same mistakes all over again."

Peyton’s Place
With so many people paying for tickets and watching on television, college sports has become Very Big Business. According to various reports, the football teams at Texas, Florida, Georgia, Michigan, and Penn State—to name just a few big-revenue football schools—each earn between $40 million and $80 million in profits a year, even after paying coaches multimillion-dollar salaries. When you combine so much money with such high, almost tribal, stakes—football boosters are famously rabid in their zeal to have their alma mater win—corruption is likely to follow.

TYWKIWDBI ("Tai-Wiki-Widbee"): President Thomas Jefferson's edited Bible
Making good on a promise to a friend to summarize his views on Christianity, Thomas Jefferson set to work with scissors, snipping out every miracle and inconsistency he could find in the New Testament Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.

Then, relying on a cut-and-paste technique, he reassembled the excerpts into what he believed was a more coherent narrative and pasted them onto blank paper -- alongside translations in French, Greek and Latin...
