Das incongruências à realidade
Portugal já é um dos lideres nesta área, ocupando o terceiro lugar (atrás da Dinamarca e da Espanha) no ranking mundial da energia eólica com uma produção que já ronda os 10 por cento. [...] Porém, apesar de apenas reservar um por cento da produção de energia para a força do vento, os EUA tem já mais capacidade instalada do que Portugal em termos de volume absoluto.
Reputação como propriedade
Reputation As Property: Is reputation the new form of property in virtual economies? This question is examined in an interesting article in the Yale Law Journal.

Tecnoconsumidores de Bhidé
Dumb and Dumber 2.0: In his recent book, “The Venturesome Economy,” the Columbia University business professor Amar Bhidé offers a perspective on American innovation and prosperity that is remarkably optimistic, given the temper of the times. Among his data-driven findings: American consumers have long shown an “exceptional willingness” to buy, for instance, technology products before their utility is clear. Such “venturesome consumers” help spur companies and entrepreneurs to take the risks that lead to innovation because they know there is a market willing to take a roughly analogous risk that the next new thing will turn out to have been worth buying. “It isn’t even just a few leading-edge users,” Bhidé told me. “The venturesomeness is much more broad-based.”
Consumers seem risk-averse and hunkered down at the moment, and spending on the nonutilitarian is getting a bad reputation.

Middlesex Crusaders cricket team changes name after complaints from Muslims and Jews: Middlesex County Cricket Club has announced that the Middlesex Crusaders will play next season as The Panthers.
Vinny Codrington, Middlesex chief executive, confirmed that the club had received "one or two" complaints from Muslim and Jewish communities concerned that the name was a reference to the medieval Christian crusades against other faiths.
He said some people found the name "rather upsetting" but denied that the change was being made for reasons of political correctness.
