Kapsberger— Che fai tu Che fai tu, vita mia, che fai tu lontan da me? Che fai tu, chi ti desvia? Torna, ahi, volgi il piè, Toma mia com’eri pria! Che fai tu, vita mia? Che fai tu, vita mia? Love of my life, what are you doing? Love of my life, what are you doing? –Giovanni Girolamo Kapsberger, Che fai tu from Libro primo di Villanelle con l’intavolatura del Chitarrone (1610)(S.H. transl.) Is this song laden with heartache over unrequited love the work of a prince of the church who later emerged as one of the greatest pontiffs of the Baroque era?

Did you lose an achievement? loading Meat: The Magazine I love magazines, and not just because I've spent about half of my career working for 'em. I love what magazines can do: the mix of text and graphics, the portability, the serendipity, the deep dives. I've worked mostly online since 1994 so I certainly welcome our new digital publishing overlords, but there are some things a print magazine does very well, even better than digital, just as the physical pleasure of devouring an LP or CD package is different from, sometimes superior to, clicking on an MP3 file in iTunes. Magazines can surprise you. Even at this late age, there are so many magazines that there is one about pretty much anything.

Plan.txt : The Most Effective Pr November 11th, 2008 · 50 comments The Two Faces of Productivity Productivity can be divided into two main concerns. The first is capturing and organizing all of the “stuff” you have to do. This is the fun part. This is where you buy fancy notebooks and configure Remember the Milk to auto-sync with your iPhone. The second concern is actually doing the stuff that you need to do. This is much less fun. This post is about this second concern. plan.txt Once a week, usually on Mondays, I open a small text file named plan.txt and jot down my action plan for the week. There are no hard rules for this plan. I tend to break down what I want to get done into the major area of my life (grad student, writer, etc.), but not always. Here’s a screenshot of my plan.txt file as of this morning: You’ll notice I don’t follow a rigid format. Here’s the important point: last week’s plan.txt looked much different. Freestyle Productivity And that’s okay! Here’s my theory:

Comment intégrer la sérendipité - Transnets - Blog LeMonde.fr Un des dangers des réseaux sociaux est qu'ils nous poussent à penser comme les autres, ce que les Américains appellent "group think". Une quantité croissante d'informations nous parvient par leur intermédiaire. Les pistes peuvent être riches, mais nous avons tendance à nous y connecter avec des gens qui pensent plutôt comme nous. Dans un article publié par le New York Times du 1er août , Damon Darling regrette, d'une façon plus générale, que les TIC tendent à réduire les hasards heureux, ce qu'en anglais on appelle "serendipity" (et que d'aucuns voudraient traduire par "zadigacité "… allez donc voir Wikipedia en français pour en trouver la raison). J'ai tendance à croire que la navigation sur le web, pour peu qu'on s'y livre avec un minimum de curiosité est au contraire une fabuleuse source de sérendipité (le néologisme qui permet de traduire ce mot qui n'existe pas en français). Je le fais de deux façons au moins: [Photo Flickr de guyphenix ] Signaler ce contenu comme inapproprié

Empreinte écologique: les SDF peuvent mieux faire | Rue89 Alors que le développement durable a été le thème de la dernière campagne de bourrage du mou de veau qui nous sert d’encéphale prioné, j’ai soudain réalisé que je ne m’étais toujours pas acquitté de la tâche d’autoculpabilisation actuellement obligatoire : à savoir, calculer son empreinte écologique. Hé bien : respect aux SDF, mais ils pourraient faire davantage d’efforts, ces feignasses. L’empreinte écologique se veut être l’évaluation de ce qu’on fait comme dégâts à la planète, en tant qu’entreprise ou mieux, à titre personnel, alors qu’on ne se doutait de rien, peinard à se bâfrer de chips devant le télé-achat pour se vider la tête, afin d’oublier qu’on va tous crever les aisselles auréolées de mercure et les yeux rougis par les CFC. L’empreinte écologique, un véritable must L’empreinte écologique est un outil sérieux. L’empreinte écologique, c’est depuis quelque temps un must. L’empreinte écologique, comme disait un journaliste scientifique, « c’est pas compliqué » . Un total toxique
