Irony is I have a ton of kale and I don't even like it.

I don't love kale but I like kale chips so I'm going to attempt growing some this year. You're making me wish I'd bought the bell jar (cloche) I saw in a thrift store in Oakland...

Those things aren't cheap, so I went with the Costco provided container for my beans :-) How do you make Kale chips? Are they any good?
- Todd Hoff
I know! It's the first time I ever saw one in a thrift store and at a semi-affordable price. Kale chips are tasty if you season them, in my opinion. A good way to fool myself into eating more vegetables. There are loads of recipes - just Google. This is the one I use: http://smittenkitchen.com/2010...

Cool, thanks, I'll give it a try.

They've still got a bit of the bitterness of kale but it's far more palatable when dehydrated (either by baking or dehydration) and salted/spiced.

Sounds like it's worth a shot then, thanks for the experiment!

"That’s it. Today’s top rates are currently lower than at any time since 1930... and ironically that includes half of the HOOVER Administration preceding FDR. In other words, the hiking upward was first done by the same 1930 Republican Congress that brought us the Smoot-Hawley Tariffs! Just to make this clear, so you rub it in your crazy-as-Fox uncle, income tax rates are lower than at any time in 80 years. The other big fact is the fraction of U.S. national GDP taken by the federal government. Fox’s uncles swear that this is at an all-time high. In fact, the federal share of GDP is at its lowest since 1950."

"Do you want to know where this post became useless to Silicon Valley's entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, and big thinkers? Right where I said, "Computers are not a natural working medium for mathematics." They understand computers and they understand how to turn computers into money so they are understandably interested in problems whose solutions require computers. Sometimes a problem comes along that doesn't naturally require computers. Like mathematics. They may then define, change, and distort the definition of the problem until it does require computers."

Scalia's Caveman Test for What is a Fundamental Right: A right is considered fundamental if it has been traditionally protected. If a right is not fundamental then a state can violate it if they meet the rationality test, which is basically an insanity test for laws. If a law isn't insane then it's legal. So you pretty much have no rights.

"The heart's inner workings are mysterious, perhaps even more so with a new finding. Engineers at the University of Washington have discovered an electrical property in arteries not seen before in mammalian tissues. The researchers found that the wall of the aorta, the largest blood vessel carrying blood from the heart, exhibits ferroelectricity, a response to an electric field known to exist in inorganic and synthetic materials. The findings are being published in an upcoming issue of the journal Physical Review Letters. "The result is exciting for scientific reasons," said lead author Jiangyu Li, a UW associate professor of mechanical engineering. "But it could also have biomedical implications.""

Laughter is like composing Haiku or taking pictures. When you think of a scene in front of you in order to write a poem or think about how to compose a shot, you are deeply engaged with where you are at. You are seeing things beyond the surface, finding relationships, comparing, contrasting, creating meaning. Laughter is like that between people.

Gardening has the same effect for deepening my awareness with the seasons. I never paid close attention to the weather before. Hot cold etc sure, but when you worry about growing things you start paying a lot more intimate attention to frost wind sun seasons how things root and grow.

A man I talked with told me how he like making up stories of the people he sees.

It requires a lot of emotional intelligence and imagination to carry this out.

Numeracy. By that I mean seeing things as described by numbers. It's a very different way of seeing the world.

The story I remember most is him looking at bicycle wheel and characterizing by numbers. He immediately signed...

Competition. This one is from Adam Savage. He sees deadlines and competition as a way to engage at a deeper level with his work. It's the pressure that creates a flow where he's solving problems and paying the most attention to what he's doing.

Entrepreneur. There's a type of person that sees every situation as a new business that could be created. Viewing the world this way can be exciting. It makes you inquisitive, sensitive to relationships, and fundamentally optimistic. The downside is the potential to see everything as a means instead of end.

Wine Tasting. It's especially fun in a group to go to a winery, look at the vines, hear the wine makers story, and try and find different flavors in the wine that backup what you've just experienced. A wine club deepens the experience a bit more. Buying futures, tasting the wine in the barrel and different points, then on release, then each year after deepens the experience even more. Food tasting in general would be similar I think.

Wish lists. Lisa Bettany on Leo's show was rhapsodising about the process of picking her ultimate camera rig. It obviously gave her a lot of pleasure to think about all the different options, roll that about in her mind, imagine what it would be like, and come up with a final list. We something similar on the Internet with question like What is your favorite X? These are often surprisingly spirited and introspective discussions. Maybe related to window shopping.

Trip joke. This is from a sailor who says on every trip to sea there develops a trip joke. It gets hammered into the deck and gets funnier as the days pass by. The funny thing, beside the joke, is the joke doesn't make any sense to the people who weren't there. It can't be explained. You had to be there in the experience. I think shared experiences are like that. People share something that can't be explained yet it is as real as rain.

Historical context & history. Knowing the history of something makes it mean more than it ever has before. It gives it layers of meaning and nuance that go way beyond a simple definition. Understanding the history of a word like brazen, for example, makes it so much more interesting. I image a definition of god as a being for whom all histories are known, so everything has ultimate meaning.

Deep dive. I was listening to these guys who are really into chillies. They grow all sorts of varieties. They had opinions on all sorts of obscure aspects of chili lore.

Echoes. Related to memories and trip jokes. But echoes are the piling up waves offset in time. So it's like rhyme in a poem, the poet setting up the rhyme for you to experience later. Repetition in music and stories. Old pictures. Snatches of memories of what has been seen, heard, experienced. All those in an echo are in a different place.

Aftershock. A combination of memory and echo. When an after shock occurs, both actual and metaphorical, there's a space of simultaneity created where the fear of the past event rushes back to the present and infects the future.

It's not hard to imagine a similar system for investment.
