Cousin
Marriage Conundrum [...]By fostering intense family loyalties and
strong nepotistic urges, inbreeding makes the development of civil
society more difficult. Many Americans have heard by now that Iraq is
composed of three ethnic groups -- the Kurds of the north, the Sunnis
of the center, and the Shi'ites of the south. Clearly, these ethnic
rivalries would complicate the task of ruling reforming Iraq. But
that's just a top-down summary of Iraq's ethnic make-up. Each of those
three ethnic groups is divisible into smaller and smaller tribes,
clans, and inbred extended families -- each with their own alliances,
rivals, and feuds. And the engine at the bottom of these bedeviling
social divisions is the oft-ignored institution of cousin
marriage[...]

following are among the occupations with the largest projected job
growth from 2000 to 2010: combined food-preparation and serving,
including fast food; customer-service representative; registered
nurse; retail salesperson; computer-support specialist; cashier,
except gaming; office clerk; security guard; computer-software
engineer, applications; waiter; general or operations manager; truck

Gay marriage compared to box-turtle
marriage in Senate, Daily Show replies
07/19/2004 02:52 AM
In a fit of astonishing lunacy, Texas Senator John Cornyn tried to
explain the need to ban gay marriage in the context of the social harm
that would accrue from allowing men to marry box turtles ("It does not
affect your daily life very much if your neighbor marries a box
turtle, but that does not mean it is right...Now you must raise you
children up in a world where that union of man and box turtle is on
the same legal footing as man and wife"). Jon Stewart's Daily Show
segment on this statement is nothing short of brilliant. Let's hope it
gets enough airplay to cost Cornyn the election (and possibly get him
institutionalized somewhere...).

Always-on identification
Always-on identification
04/18/2004 11:09 AM
David Weinberger's recent essay,
There's
No "I" in "Identity", advances a notion of real-world identity
that's so different from mine I had to sort out why. David writes:
In the real world, we don't identify everyone. We only identify those
about whom we have doubts that we have to resolve for some purpose.
Identifying is not the default in the real world. Nor, IMO, should it
be online. [JOHO]
Compare this with the following memorable quote from Bruce Schneier's
Secrets and Lies:
Authentication is about the continuity of relationships, knowing who
to trust and who not to trust, making sense of a complex world. Even
nonhumans need authentication: smells, sound, touch. Arguably, life
itself is an authenticating molecular pit of enzymes, antibodies, and
so on.
I remember this quote because I included it in my
review
of the book, which I continue to think is not only Schneier's best
book, but also the best book I've ever read on the topic of security.

TheyWorkForYou: finest advocacy web-app

06/06/2004 02:30 PMTheyWorkForYou.com -- a project from the FaxYourMP team -- has
launched today. This is the most amazing, subversive piece of
political webware I've ever seen. It scrapes the Parliamentary record
and makes the entire thing commentable, searchable and permalinkable.
It compiles stats of which MPs vote against their parties most often,
which ones speak most often, which have made the most motions and so
forth. I've been beta-testing it and the code and UI are brilliant.
It's like they've poured Parliament into LiveJournal -- and in so
doing, have cutg overnment down to a human-addressable scale. We need
one of these in every country in the world.

Stunning political advocacy Flash.
Stunning political advocacy Flash.
01/27/2004 10:18 AM
This is one of the most effective pieces of political advocacy I've
ever seen. Ben Cohen, the Ben of Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream, narrates a
short Flash movie for TrueMajority.org, in which he explains -- using
Oreo cookies -- the way that the federal budget is currently
apportioned, and how little rearrangement would be necessary to renew
all of America's social programs. The examples are vivid and charming,
and the logic is compelling.
The only thing I'd change is adding a fast-forward, pause and rewind
button. I wanted to refer back to specific sections of the movie, and
the "play all the way through" interface really frustrated me (just
taking this screenshot was really hard).
