Which gives me time to blog more selections from The Economist:

- If you're OK with the notion that money is at the root of all evil, here's a mutual fund you'll wanna buy.

- "Can you hear me now?" Yes, it is possible now to make a cell phone call from Mt. Kilimanjaro.

- Yale Law prof Harold Koh writes on the America's human rights at home.

- You know you want this IPO. The Economist examines Google's fortunes and its impending stock listing.
