  1. The Hunch, the Pounce and the Kill: How Boaz Weinstein and Hedge Funds Outsmarted JPMorgan nyti.ms/KsZrXu
  2. Blogonomics, ten years on bit.ly/K71KCD
  3. Leadership lessons from a Wall Street consultant reut.rs/MYp7OC
  4. Warren Buffett’s Newspaper Purchase bit.ly/JrYa04 - @cshirky gets it right
  5. @paperlung Chris Nolan, at least; this is a solid place to start theatlantic.com/entertainment/…
  6. @loosejoints I'm looking forward to what Benh is making in 5 years (but I want him to see some Costa or Straub first, & brush up on Renoir).
  7. I'd need to write a discourse on ethics of filming & representation to address what's wrong with Beasts of the Southern Wild.
  8. @partiels as do I, but so far other options don't look good [note: I'm referring to internal parties following the Libyan example...]
  9. @partiels like Libya, nature of Syrian gov't oppression makes armed struggle the best/only path forward.
  10. @partiels hate the kneejerk-anti-interventionism, but the Syrian Free Army has been and will continue to be key revolutionary force.
  11. @partiels omni-deplorable indeed.
  12. @partiels intervention in Syria is likely to be more complicated/bloody than Libya. think Somalian rather than Bosnian intervention.
