This world of ours 4


Anthropogenic warming. Impending doom. Tortillas and ethanol.
1. Humans blamed for climate change
2. Waxman: White House misled public on global warming
3. Climate resets 'Doomsday Clock'
4. 'Doomsday' vault design unveiled
5. Mexicans stage tortilla protest

Then there's:
6. View of US's global role 'worse'
7. France glimpses art in video games
8. Sweden plans Second Life embassy

And:
9. Richest 2% own 'half the wealth'
10. Gender bias 'increases poverty'
11. Birth rate 'harms poverty goals'
12. 'Altruistic' brain region found

And:
13. Stress 'harms brain in the womb'
14. Study Puts Rate of Autism at 1 in 150 U.S. Children
15. No sleep means no new brain cells

Put it all together, this farrago:
the intersections that evade the eye's scrutiny.



2/13 update:

Oh, and:
16. New crops needed to avoid famines
17. Obama throws his hat in the ring
