- Crises and opportunities in Balkan science policy (start, more). A word of caution for my Romanian pals, among whom a new risk of self-denying optimism-- expected to turn into the usual complacency-- appears contagious: con calma, this is at best a mediocre start (though, granted, a start it is). Not to mention that before reaching (competing with?) the West, the East needs to tackle (be inspired by?) the more (and increasingly so) academically attractive South.
- ...in which it is revealed that crises may hide huge opportunities. Earlier on the Kseniya phenomenon.
- A wealth of economic ideas? Taxing prostitution in the Netherlands and witchcraft in Romania. Good luck.
- Chess crisis: what did they give Magnus to drink/smoke in Holland?! In words.
- Opportunities? Best predictors of the number of heterosexual sex partners.
- Somebody save Maastricht, tourists will desert it.
- In praise of reading and fiction: Mario Vargas Llosa like no other. Also, hopes that the Literature Nobel Committee has finally decided to do a Nobel Committee job.

We can teach those Rumanian and Dutch taxmen a thing or two: in Denmark even the fact that you breath is taxed.
