• Nupat iesēju citronzāli. Nav ne jausmas, vai tur maz ir kāda dīgtspēja, jo paciņā iebērtais izskatījās pēc slavenajām skābu kāpostu sēklām no pasakas par zaķi.

• TLS turpinās nopietna diskusija par pieturzīmēm. Tā sākās ar sūdzību par to, ka Kindle dažkārt tās mēdz saputrot.

• ""If you were to dine at el Bulli”, writes the American journalist Lisa Abend, “you would arrive in Roses [a town on the Costa Brava] fairly early in the day”. You would drive up the unmarked road to the restaurant. Around 7.30, one of the maître d’s would ask
  
  "if you’d like to start the meal with cocktails on the veranda . . . . Regardless of what the “drink” comprises, there will be something about it that is amusing or delightful . . . . Then the snacks will start appearing, in groups of two or three, each one on its own specially designed plate: pristine disks that look like elaborately decorated candies from a Parisian confiserie but taste of salty sesame; crisp, translucent rectangles of raspberry punched up with wasabi’s heat; a thin cracker that tastes purely and intensely of the juiciest tomato you’ve ever eaten."
  
  It’s all rather hypothetical, though, since neither you nor I are likely to dine at el Bulli."

• "Some of Kay’s most illuminating passages center not on what conspiracy theorists believe — even to dignify it with the word “theory” is probably to grant them more legitimacy than they deserve — but on why they are attracted to such tedious rubbish in the first place. He divides them into different camps, including the “cranks” and the “firebrands.” Cranks are often reacting to male midlife crises — combating conspiracies, Kay says, offers a new sense of mission. Cranks, he adds, are frequently math teachers, computer scientists or investigative journalists."
