Scotland’s Largest City Set To Ban All Photography in Its Subways
Earlier today Amateur Photographer reported that the Strathclyde Partnership for Transport (SPT) in Glasgow, Scotland is set to impose a series of bylaws for the cities transport, including a ban in section 12.1 which would prohibit riders from “take[ing] photographs, or make[ing] video, audio or visual recordings on any part of the subway.” In fact, the only way around the ban would be to get express written permission from the SPT and show it to any officer that may request to see it.

This is a rare meteorological phenomenon called a skypunch. When people see these, they think it’s the end of the world. Ice crystals form above the high-altitude cirro-cumulo-stratus clouds, then fall downward, punching a hole in the cloud cover.

Skypunch. I am going to start incorporating this into my vocabulary immediately.

“If you don’t shut up I’m gonna skypunch you in the FACE.”

New shows! I’ve been at home working on writing and recording new music for the past couple months, so I’m thrilled to get back out and play all over the country. Any help spreading the word about these shows would be greatly appreciated!

I love the internet.

I have an idea that some men are born out of their due place. Accident has cast them amid certain surroundings, but they have always a nostalgia for a home they know not. They are strangers in their birthplace, and the leafy lanes they have known from childhood or the populous streets in which they have played, remain but a place of passage. They may spend their whole lives aliens among their kindred and remain aloof among the only scenes they have ever known. Perhaps it is this sense of strangeness that sends men far and wide in the search for something permanent, to which they may attach themselves. Perhaps some deep-rooted atavism urges the wanderer back to lands which his ancestors left in the dim beginnings of history. Sometimes a man hits upon a place to wchich he mysteriously feels that he belongs. Here is the home he sought, and he will settle amid scenes that he has never seen before, among men he has never known, as though they were familiar to him from his birth. Here at last he finds rest.

Soap&Skin – “Wonder”

Austrian singer-songwriter Anja Plaschg returned this week, following up the luminous rise and fall of “Boat Turns Toward the Port” with “Wonder,” a more subdued yet equally haunting preview of the new Soap&Skin mini-album, Narrow. Hear the meditative cut — due out in March as the record’s first single — above.

blog.bufferapp.com: 6 Incredible Examples Of How Twitter Predicts The Future

futuramb:

1.) Twitter Accurately Predicts Politician’s Victory at New Hampshire Primary

2.) Twitter knows how you will be feeling this Friday

3.) Did Twitter predict the revolution in Egypt?

4.) Predict the future yourself with Twitter and Timeu.se

5.) Hedgefund to make bets based on Tweets – beats the market

6.) Predicting and stopping the spread of diseases with Twitter

Note: All of these predictions are of the kind of collecting data early and seeing a pattern in that data in order to see what is currently emerging. That is just a small part of what we use the word “prediction” for… Not that it is unimportant but it might be problematic to call it predictions without to define what kind of predictions it is…

Not that we need it, living in Texas. I’m just now making use of my light hoodie collection, and we still have heavy hoodie, light jacket, medium jacket, and heavy jacket to go.
