| Description: |
Synthesis, written by engineer and marketer Shafeen Charania, is that rarest of digital creatures: a blog about ideas. The posts on synthesis are long by blog standards, and cover serious topics like education, healthcare, geopolitics and leadership, but Charania's writing is accessible and engaging. A recent post notes how Barack Obama's campaign strategy is similar to that espoused by Sun Tzu in The Art of War ("The clever combatant imposes his will on the enemy, but does not allow the enemy's will to be imposed on him") and points out some uncomfortable truths about why healthcare in the U.S. is broken ("Americans are horribly lazy and believe that pills can cure bad behavior.") synthesis is not just smarter than the average blog — it's practically at the head of the class. |

What branch of the federal government has the highest level of integrity? Which would you trust more than the others?
The Executive and Legislative are infected with special interests, and motivated not by what's right, but by what's popular and what sells. The Judicial seems to be the most transparent and the one where outcomes and implications are most easily observed and measured.
The Supreme Court is
spoiler alert
To be an effective spoiler, you must lure people in and then do the bait and switch by thoroughly turning the tables on them. You have to be smarter than people expect.
It's impossible over the last few days to read/watch/listen to any kind of news without hearing about Sarah Palin, her book, her Oprah interview, and how she's still just a honest, God-fearing, down-to-earth, anti-socialism hockey grandmother.
affect magic
I tend to think in threes. Driving home this evening, the concept of experiences was bouncing around my head, and I saw three aspects - those that create, those that watch, and those that curate.
I was marveling earlier at my good fortune to have such great friends. Two of my dearest hosted an impromptu celebration tonight for a collection of fellows that were all three of these aspects of creation. They are artists one and all - their inspiration c
