    Agree, the image I put up looks much worse than when it was designed.

    Your point is sound. I agree definitely.

    Favorite city to visit: Frascati, Italy. It was so beautiful, right in the Alban Hills, and with lakes and villages nearby, a great place to hike around.

    Favorite City in general: Richmond, VA. It's a fantastic place, big, underground music scene, large arts community, and a ton of bars and restaurants.

    I disagree with your narrative. In the article, it was quoted that

    Bosses have always kept a close eye on employees. Henry Ford famously paced the factory floor with a stopwatch, timing his workers' motions in a bid for greater efficiency. He also hired private investigators to spy on employees' home lives to make sure personal problems didn't interfere with their work performance."

    I think that this is much rather the ability to be cheaply and easily monitored at all times. An easier way of not being monitored is to not use electronics provided by the company except for their given purpose (like using the computer only for work related items, ie not Facebook, Twitter, Snapzu, ect).

    Although I agree a little with you on the possible "infantilization of modern workers", I believe that this is the result of better organizational behavior studies (that identify problems with work group and policies, and try to find solutions to alleviate them), and with problems with the blending of work and life outside of work (ie, answering work emails at home, being on call most of the time, answering calls and emails on vacations.)

    I have a piece of mummy embalming cloth. An ancestor was an archaeologist in Egypt. And he had cut off a piece of mummy cloth and sent to his wife, to show what he was working on and what he was finding.

    And no, it's not cursed. Well, who knows!?

    Hmm I wonder what these would taste like without the bun.

    Probably delicious.

    A really interesting article about urban gardening, food deserts, and an initiative in Richmond, Virginia.

    I agree to a sense. I'm also saying you can see something of the same over in Europe and, to an extent, the world.

    No, you're good. "Bread and circuses" is a phrase meaning that people want and are satisfied by huge spectacles and free food.

    As an American, I never fail to be impressed by the craziness of different European countries' policies. Greece and Italy (mainly under Berlusconi) not crazy, wow. Switzerland banning minarets, and France banning the wearing of religious iconography in for people in schools is pretty wild too.

    It makes you wonder, "Maybe I don't have to look across the Atlantic to see crazy people in government or running in the government."

    Yeah! It was something that I bumped into on another website forum, and thought it was really useful. In general, I'm trying to recreate a more user-generated list and recreate a forum that looks at cheap but healthy food and food recipes.

    Hmm interesting. I kind of like that.

    My 2 cents are that there could be more formatting under the comment and snap "notification button" (top right left corner), that would show what some of the comment said and where it was said, and that may work better. (However, I am not a developer or anything like that so IDK)
