I've given to Hope College every year since graduation, for the best of reasons: I believe in education, and Hope provides a wonderful educational experience. So love that Malcolm Gladwell has seen what is special about this place.

look at this swing set. It is about community, about being together and seeing one another. I'd suggest building this way in the future!

the truth is often painful. Unfortunately, many of us expressed our complete disbelief at the original concept of reduction...and we overpowered by a few souls focused on software, not transportation. Key learning: human society should not be 2nd to software ideas.

NEW: In Vancouver, local objectors just got an 8-kid daycare proposal killed in their residential neighbourhood in a city that badly needs more daycare. Complaints include the sound of children playing. Embarrassing & irresponsible of City Hall. Dan Fumano vancouversun.com/opinion/column…

Two school districts in Alberta, Canada. One (Edmonton) implemented HEPA filters in classrooms, the other (Calgary) didn't. Guess which one had fewer sick kids and absences? Now think of the knock-on effects on people missing work, hospitalizations etc This is not rocket science

Every Sunday I go to Costco and look for people pulling up in $125,000 cars who stand in line for 22 minutes to return a $8.99 item. I’ll ask them where they work and then go long the stock. I’m up 271% this year.
