• Xfm Buzz – A Radio Hack | Blog – Gareth53.co.uk – At Global Towers we developers have 10% time to go away and hack at something that might, ultimately, bring value to the business. So that means Friday afternoons is hack time. One of my personal hack projects has come to an end and I wanted to record it for posterity before it disappears – how it behaves, what it does, the thought process behind it and why I thought it was a valuable exercise.

• The Body Counter – By Tina Rosenberg | Foreign Policy – On March 13, 2002, in a courtroom in The Hague, something different happened. In the trial of Slobodan Milosevic, Patrick Ball, an American statistician, presented numbers to support the case that Milosevic had pursued a deliberate policy of ethnic cleansing. "We find evidence consistent with the hypothesis that Yugoslav forces forced people from their homes, forced Albanian Kosovars from their homes, and killed people," Ball said.

• [toread] Social Text: Periscope: Socialist Irrealism: an interview with China Miéville – Known for his radical fictive speculation, China Miéville is also fiercely engaged with radical politics–he stood for the House of Commons as candidate for the Socialist Alliance in the 2001 UK general election–and so is often asked about the relationship between his politics and his writing. He explains that he makes an important distinction between writing fiction to make political points and writing with a political perspective.

• The Hobbit: Deciphering Dwarf Documents « Heirs of Durin – Having discovered the highest resolution images yet of Bilbo holding the contract which Thorin and Co. wrote (see end of post), I’ve spent more time than I’ll admit trying to work out what it says. You think Bilbo looks perplexed? I might have had better luck with the Dead Sea Scrolls. My findings are based on some visible evidence, and a whole lot of guesswork. Even so, the truly Hobbit/Dwarf-obsessed will be interested in what I’ve been able to discern, and perhaps will continue the study on their own.
