Marc Steinmetz is pretty cool. As are these escape tools created by inmates:

Although a little [extremely] shady, some of these creations are really impressive...

So, I went to this [http://www.theenglishsurgeon.com/] last Friday and it was pretty incredible. This new documentary follows London’s foremost brain MD during a winter in Ukraine as he wrestles with mortality, small miracles, and the risks involved with going under the knife. Aside from almost throwing up and passing out at one point, I really enjoyed it. The director and surgeon were there at the end for a Q&A, which made it all the more rich. I would go on and on telling you what it's about, but check out the site and WATCH IT.

YAY Michael Chabon! YES

Michael Chabon talks about his childhood of freely running around the outdoors, getting into scrapes and exploring. He fears that our new anxieties and desire to control children's lives to protect them from everything from sexual predators to germs is stunting their imagination, with possible ramifications on the future of literature.
