Senses working overtime #376

1 Taller benches




10 benches in Copenhagen have been raised by 1 metre and set up in prominent areas of the city. A copper plate on each bench reads:
“Flooding will become part of our everyday life
unless we start doing something about our climate.
According to the latest UN Climate Report sea-levels are expected to rise with up to 1 meter before 2100 if the global warming continues.”


2 Boris



Excellent piece from the Beeb Beeb Ceeb.

5 Nobody likes self-checkout. Here's why it's everywhere.




Overtime: The Bill Evans Album




Introducing Destination: Records, a new blog to house my album reviews. The Bill Evans' album is the latest MNAC selection (from Lewis this week) which will appear soon on the blog. It's brilliant!

DB: comic hero



Love this!

Wicker's story



Great Vox piece that hooked me in via album covers and held my attention!

The Croz celebrated




Great series of links to lessons about music from an old warrior - David Crosby, hisself!

Scary guy




Boris as the joker

 Great summary from New Statesman of how this nightmare started and why it's so mind numbingly stupid!

Overtime: Grammar sticklers take note

The order of adjectives before a noun explained (and yes, there is one - whether you are aware of it or not!)

1 Movie posters
Do they all look the same

2 Body tells
Nice piece this on some of the ways our body lets us down without saying a word. I am very much a WYSIWYG person and an open book!

3 The other side of fear



Another short read: this one is in the inspirational reading category on not letting pain and fear stop you from pursuing everything you want in life.

4 Seth Godin



I'm enjoying my daily dose of wisdom from Seth's blog. This edition was titled Shields up and may surprise you!

5 Matt Muir's Imperica
Thanks to a brilliant Olgilvy Blaze Radio thingcast ('cept what's with the annoying piddly music guys??) from James Whatley I found this from Matt Muir. Holy sugar honey iced tea!! It's pretty cool!!

Overtime
Ha ha Boris! What's that sound? Oh yeah - chickens flapping their way homeward.

Britain and Westeros are taking on too many similarities for comfort of late. Great read on the treacherous side of UK politics.
