Here Are All the Other Things We'd Love Taylor Swift to Fix

She got Apple to reverse a payment policy. What else can Tay change?

Tumblr, your "here's a blog" sucks! Don't want crap on every page of people I don't want to see or follow. If I wanted these people, I'd follow these people.The paid for blogs were bad enough, but I understood the $ aspect. This is just crap. If you want to suggest blogs put it on a side panel somewhere.

I love the internet, but people tend to believe so much of what they read is true. If you even take a second and go to the Robert Brewer site, home to the person who put this distressful little graph out, he is now saying that he got the info from another source who doesn't even support these conclusions, and therefore he recants it.

Now, I know a lot of folks don't read (which is sad to me as a book lover),an I'd probably be depressed if a real study was done, but I'm not going to take every clever graph someone makes as fact.

Pass this house every day on my way to work. Love it. I remember when it was literally a dump, but after about a year or two of repairs it ended up like this.

"Joshua Beckford learned to read fluently by the time he was two and a half and taught himself to touch-type on a computer before he could write using a pencil. He can speak Japanese, practices medical surgery on a computer simulator and has completed more than 1,000 maths problems.”

How to Tell Black People Apart by David Alan Grier - Video

[nprbooks]

Libraries in many big cities often serve as de facto homeless shelters — a place for people living on the streets to find quiet and warmth — and it can make others, there to just check out books or videos, uncomfortable.

KQED’s Scott Shafer reports that’s why the San Francisco Public Library has hired a full-time social worker. She spends her days roaming the library floors, keeping an eye out for regulars who look like they could use her help. And sometimes she hires the formerly homeless patrons she’s helped, like Joe Bank, to do outreach under her supervision.

L.A.'s Central Library needs this big time.
