The popular press can harrumph all they like, but if you can't misbehave when you're a student, when can you? Oh, to be a student again, pissed on freedom and curdled shots.

"What' this? how do I do that', why did that happen', where's M....?, have you read this', why did she say that?" You may recognise some or all of these, as will any harrassed parent, but this time they come from a 54 year old facebook child.

There are a lot of complete wackos out in the U.S. prison system, but very few of them (probably for the best) hand-write court papers and file lawsuits. Jonathan Lee Riches (a.k.a. Bernard Madoff) is one of the chosen few. In a recent court declaration, the Indiana inmate sued for custody of the eight kids of Jon and Kate Gosselin and the offspring of Octomom Nadya Suleman. Oh, and in a political...

What is it about Peak Oil that helps to 'get one's head' around the converging challenges of this time in planet history? I like to see it as the 'first story': all the others - climate change, economic 'recession', arctic ice melts, pollution, obesity, loss of bio-diversity, floods, famines, having to recycle our waste and think about using the car less are 'second stories'.

This one is a variation on the acetate idea that I was shown at the Sheena Douglas workshop the other week.
