My economics knowledge is limited, but aren't lowering reserve ratios and buying bonds standard Keynesian methods to increase demand?

Still pretty scary stuff.

Had an interview today for a job way above my technical knowledge. Thankfully it's only for a co-op so no big deal if I don't get it. I've never felt impostor syndrome so badly in my life.

There's a bit more justification on at least string instruments. Strings have a definite change of timbre after enough time.

That was awesome. It's actually decently balanced too. What did you use to record it?

There's definitely a lot of indecision on his part. He's at least acutely aware his grandmother is poisoning people, yet he does nothing to really stop her. It's like he just puts his hands up, and says it's out of his control.

Still I can understand a lot of his actions. It's a really difficult thing to call out a loved one on something illegal, especially one you grew up with your whole life. He really did have at least enough evidence though to at least justify avoiding his grandmother, and preventing his children from ever meeting her.

Justin Meldal-Johnsen actually played stand-up bass for Televators. Aside from that what do you think of the new Antemasque album?

To be fair, she does acknowledge Lockhart's essay in the article.

The music is too funny. It's the exact type of music played on How It's Made.

This is awesome! Have you found a way to download it besides itunes? It won't let me get it without changing my region in itunes.
