I haven't done any in awhile. Things you might have missed.
Virginia Postrel is not impressed with Harvard's "kindness" pledge.
Steven Levitt - I am only a moderate fan - is quite moving talking about his adopting two daughters from China.
Harvard econ profs Greg Mankiw and Robert Barro write on what would help the economy. In the NYT. Will anyone listen?
And from Mankiw, a telling quote from Paul Samuelson in 1967 about Social Security. Preview: the phrase Ponzi scheme occurs - but it's meant as a compliment, I think.
And under the "I shoulda posted this years ago" category, we have John Hawks anthropology blog, and the history of Ireland in maps
