three words: "passionate, hardass"
techcrunch says:
Making the rounds on Twitter, Facebook and Tumblr right now is Three Words, a super simple but mighty fun application created by teen tinkerer Mark Bao. What does it do?
Well, it tells you who you are in three words, at least according to the people that visit that Web page, that is.

Showering like hygienic humans is much more rewarding than subjecting those around you to the fumes of your fragranced aerosol deodorant body spray. The Axe...

Ah, yes. Journalists used to resist PR as long as possible, till they really needed the cash, and then give in and go over to the other side and take the money. Two things are different now: One, some journalists are going over to PR for the simple reason that they cannot find a job in journalism, period.

pitter's pick: the case for consensual incest
first, salon says:
Generally, in cases like this involving “consensual activity within the home,” it comes down to the question of whether the government has “a compelling state interest” in regulating the activity. “Some courts recognize that the government does have an interest in regulating incestuous conduct because of the risk of pregnancy and the...

“Professional poisoners of the public mind, exploiters of foolishness, fanaticism and self-interest.” This is how Ivy Lee and Edward Bernays, founding fathers of the public relations business, were described by a US Supreme Court judge in the early 20th century.

I resent in my life the survival of some very mediocre male actors and the professional demise of some very brilliant female ones… However, with all due respect to you many brilliant and successful women in this room… really not too much has changed in the canon of Hollywood filmmaking that continues to worship at the altar of the 18 to 25-year-old male and his penis.

the karma seed
My name is Christopher Lo, and I would like to share with you the story of how I was inspired to create The Karma Seed. On April 25, 2010 I left my camera outside of my university’s library. I had been shooting a promotional video for a student group, and I somehow managed to leave it behind. For the next few days, I frequented the school’s lost and found website hoping that it...
