...hipster bars in Central Square; we may have organized a kick-ass fundraiser for an amazing cause. We may have a sizzling wardrobe or mix a mean martini. We may have people knocking on our doors every Saturday night looking for a good time. We may be amazing in a million different ways. But because we don’t hold the key to a mansion, we’re robbed of the status we deserve. It smacks of a different century...
...between France and Britain is that British companies will give us the opportunity do so. While the French are debating what to do about discrimination against Muslims, young French-born Muslim college graduates are fleeing France for Britain.

"There's a problem of political culture," says Fabrizio Tonello, a political science professor at the University of Padua. "If people are interested in a small party, they vote for it no matter what...
...with a lilting melody built upon a warm and soothing melody of voices. Listening to the track suddenly makes the listener see in Technicolor and imagine some particularly sappy European comedy, like the best music of similarly-inclined U.K. band St. Etienne. Voice enters only very late in the mix, and slowly the lines “I wanna stay with you / for the rest of my life” meander in such a manner as to somehow make them not seem trite...
