POLL 30: RUNNING IN THE FAMILY by Level 42
Limitless Cinema (Free subscription) | 08/18/2008
My poll 30 is inspired by many Thai films I just saw and like very much. These Thai films are documentaries about the directors’ own families. So I decided to make a list of my favorite films about this topic. Normally I hate films which support the family institution, because they are usually didactic, and I can’t identify with the characters. But these Thai documentaries are not didactic. Most of...

What's in a number - Why 42 ?
Norfolk Blogger (Free subscription) | 06/10/2008
Paul Walter muses brilliantly on the reasons why Gordon brown settles on the number 42 for the number of days detention he wants. Personally I think it is because Gordon Brown loves the 1980's legends Level 42. I'm not sure what his favourite single is. I suspect it's their 1983 hit "The Chinese Way". After all, the Chinese like to keep people locked up without trial too. Although, I suspect give...

42 - it so obviously the right number
Liberal Burblings (Free subscription) | 06/10/2008
Despairing of finding a logical reason for this detention with no charge for 42 days malarkey (well, a logical reason other than 'Gordon wants it') I went to the ever-reliable (except when it's not) Wikipedia and it all became clear: 42 is the obvious number to choose! In Mathematics it's the second sphenic number to be bracketed by twin primes. In Science, it's the atomic number of molybdenum.

Last Friday, after the Social Media Cafe, I was interviewed by broadcaster and programme maker Penny Jackson for the Creative Coffee Club podcast.

Weekend playlist ('That's hot' edition)
John Gushue . . . Dot Dot Dot (Free subscription) | 05/18/2008
Saturday was conspicuously warm in St. John's ... it wasn't that hot, it's just that the preceding weeks have been so cold. Noticing that two of the newer songs on my iPod have a thematic link, I went looking for more. Apologies to Paris Hilton. The B-52s: Hot Corner. The B-52s have a new album, Funplex, and pretty much the same sound and look that have served them well (for some reason, though, they...
