A set of first class stamps are to be issued in January next year commemorating ten icons of British design. The Royal Mail’s new series offers up a discernably nostaligic look at some British Design Classics, largely culled from the 1930s and 1960s. (via CR Blog » Blog Archive » Stamps of Approval)

There is a lot to be thankful for in this world. Even in this economy, even with the seriously sick, scary stuff going on around the world. Saying goodbye to a federal government with a rogue’s gallery this crowded? Call me sappy, but I’m thankful.

I always remember to thank Jesus for the end of my touring days; if I hadn’t said that the Beatles were ‘bigger than Jesus’ and upset the very Christian Ku Klux Klan, well, Lord, I might still be up there with all the other performing fleas! God bless America. Thank you, Jesus.

“What keeps the war going is eastern Congo’s vast mineral wealth—gold, diamonds, tin and coltan, a vital component in mobile phones. Nkunda imposes a tax on illegal miners in his area; other militias do their own digging. Either way, the puny salaries offered if fighters disarm and join the national Army provide scant incentive to give up mining. Most of the take is smuggled out through Rwanda—and that may be a key. Enforcing a ban on minerals from militia-held areas might at least slow the fighting. Still, it’s a tall order. ‘If there were something easy that could fix the Congo, it would have been done,’ says Anneke Van Woudenberg of Human Rights Watch. ‘There’s no magic bullet.’”  - Africa’s Other Holocaust
