may be overseas, and both sides are geared up to mobilize the
expatriate vote. An estimated 4 million to 10 million U.S. citizens
live abroad. Those older than 18 are entitled to have their absentee
votes counted in the state where they last lived, no matter how long
ago that was. Polls suggest razor-thin margins in several battleground
states, and votes coming in from abroad could make the difference.

My
cattle grazing grounds are not my idea and vice versa. But thanks
to laws I can "own" the idea as if the idea was a cow ; link
goes to a interesting university-level paper [PDF].
The author makes some interesting analysis and points attention to the
fact that current intellectual property laws can go against well
established economic theories at the expense of free market
competition theory, technical innovations and society-as-a-whole best
interest.
Recommended to people with economic theory experience , but also to
everyday public-goods-privatization opposers as the paper isn't
(intentionally) way too technical.

Limits of technology
Limits of technology
07/05/2004 12:40 PMEven with our seemingly limitless ingenuity, technology can only go so
far. We can be disembodied voices across half of the world with just
a few buttons; we can send letters to faraway lands in less time than
it took for the Victorian mailman to mount his horse; we can even see
what is happening in distant places; huge machines can fling us across
the sky. "Connecting people" says one company.
But seeing someone on your screen is not the same as touching her
hair.
Hearing someone's voice is not the same as a gentle kiss.
Laughing with her in chat is not the same as a tight embrace.
Even with all our advances, there are still things to be said about
physical presence. Many beautiful things.

04/05/2005 01:50 PMWhen I decided to run the Paris Marathon last fall, I did so for two
main reasons: I was all hopped up on the running junk after the NYC
Marathon and wanted to try another and wanted to try and go faster,
and I wanted an excuse to go to Paris.
As the fall turned into winter though, I found I was less psyched for
running. I turned my attention to skiing and, whether from exhaustion
or lack of training, or over-training, or who knows, I found that
whenever I did run, I had a bad run. I never felt good, either during
the jog or after. I know for many people that's always the case, but
for me running is usually something that makes me feel better; it
gives me a real boost.
The more this happened, the more I dreaded my runs. The more I
dreaded, the less I ran, until the cycle fed upon itself, culminating
in a very difficult and long Brooklyn Half-Marathon last month. I told
myself it was because I was tired (true) and that once I got some
rest, I'd have great runs again (false). That hasn't been the case,
and though I thought I'd "turn around" here in Paris, I haven't. I
dreaded running from the moment I got here, and I was seriously
beginning to dread 26.2 miles of Paris Marathon on April 10th.
So I decided a couple days ago that I wouldn't run the marathon. And
just like that, the anxiety lifted. I'm not a good quitter, and it was
*really* hard for me to allow myself to make this decision. In fact I
can't recall a time where I've ever done something like this before.
I'm pretty confident I could have finished the marathon, because I'm
obstinate and can push through all kinds of nearly-incapacitating
physical pain (thanks Tufts Crew!) but it seemed rather perverse to do
something when clearly my body repeatedly was telling me not to.
More importantly, I want to love running. It's something that -- not
to sound too overly dramatic but its true -- has really sustained me
during some very difficult dark periods of my life. And I didn't want
to lose that.
So I'm back to running for fun, and I'm looking forward to a some
spring and summer fun races, where I hope to get the good feelings
back and find the love again. I'll still be out there on Sunday, but
I'll be cheering instead of perspiring. I'll be offering encouragement
because I know what it's like to put in all the training and see it
pay off on the big day, and the feeling that gives you. I've run 26.2
miles before, and I'll do it again. But I just won't do it this
Sunday. And that's OK.
