Reasons for Reason
Without a common background of standards against which we measure what counts as a reliable source of information, or a reliable method of inquiry, and what doesn't, we won't be able to agree on the facts, let alone values. Indeed, this is precisely the situation we seem to be headed towards in the United States. We live isolated in our separate bubbles of information culled from sources that only reinforce our prejudices and never challenge our basic assumptions.

"Sacrifice for the Dear Leader, however secular, is an act of cultic conformity and worship.

And ignorance, fear, and craving keep them with us."

Michele Bachmann Announces 2012 Presidential Campaign
"Our problems don't have an identity of party, they are problems created by both parties," Mrs. Bachmann said. "Americans agree that our country is in peril today and we must act with urgency to save it. Americans aren't interested in affiliation. They are interested in solutions and leadership that will tell the truth, as long as they're Republican."
(Yes, I added that last bit, cos let's face it, you know it's troof!)

Light Field camera | Lytro
Looks like Blade Runner technology is finally here. A camera that can take pictures in which you can select the focal point AFTER the shot is taken. AND you can also peek around the edges of objects.
