he as a lot to hide, obviously
tennessee's new governor oil gazillionaire bill haslam made his first executive act an order that allowed himself and top aides permission not to disclose how much they earn in outside income.
this is the complete opposite of the first executive act of his predecessor phil bredesen. weird.

announcement!
Attention everyone who never got to see our TV show on Showtime (or wants to see it again). Good news: Current TV is re-airing the entire series!
The show ran for two seasons, winning several Emmy awards including best nonfiction series. We're thrilled that more people will get to see it. Episodes will air Mondays at 10PM/9C, from January 10th through April 4th. If you have digital cable, chances are you have Current TV. (via)

oh and speaking of maps
It was rolled up among other yellowed maps and prints that came off a delivery truck at the Brooklyn Historical Society’s stately office near the East River. Carolyn Hansen, the society’s map cataloguer, began to gently unfurl the canvas.
“You could hear it rip,” said Ms. Hansen, 29, still cringing at the memory. She stopped pulling. But enough of the map, browned with age and dry and crisp as a stale chip, was open to reveal a name: Ratzer.
“We have a Ratzer map,” said James Rossman, chairman of the society, who happened to be in the building that Monday last May. That statement, despite the reverence in its delivery, meant little to the others in the room, but it would soon reverberate in cartography circles and among map scholars.
The name Ratzer is invoked as something of a Da Vinci of New York cartography, and the map was an early edition of his best-known work: a Bernard Ratzer “Plan of the City of New York” in its 1770 state. (via)i can't wait to see it irl!
