AC/DC "Rock N Roll Train" - important excel document must be viewed during work hours. (New album is ok, definitely AC/DC...)
Update: So I linked this before I watched it, it's actually pretty crap. The idea is great, they should have waited until they had a nice high-contrast clip to use because it's wasted on footage of railroads and close-up faces. (Nice literal interpretation by the way, video director. "I know, we can use train tracks, because the song's called "Rock N Roll Train")

Annals of Culture: Late Bloomers. Internev appears to have some sort of obligation to link every article Gladwell writes. There's just something about the way he peppers his psuedoscience with pithy homilies that really infuriates me, yet I can't stop myself reading (and usually end up enjoying the piece).

So which country has the soundest banking system? - Financial Week. I've been hunting for this list for a while. Good to see Luxembourg getting in the mix. I do wonder why Zimbabwe isn't right down the bottom of the list though.
