Shuttle
Trolling around the Edward E. Tufte site I stumbled across a link to this 20-page diagramatic timeline of the space shuttle's failed reentry.

Filing
I contemplate this most boring of all subjects because I'm an Information Worker, and it's basically all I do. First read this filing essay. Then read these cartoons about filing. Empathize, people.

Voter apathy
Here, from The Guardian, is how to keep the kids interested in politics:

A radical new proposal from the Green party in the southern city of Granada would see the introduction of a controversial new youth sex voucher, the so-called "bonosex", to give amorous young couples aged 25 or under a 50% discount in the city's hotels.
The vouchers would allow young people to initiate their sex lives in "dignified" surroundings, rather than in the cramped, uncomfortable and clandestine places they were normally forced to use, according to a party spokesman.
Given my younger siblings' stations in life I'll avoid further comment.
