Zen Buddhists say: Wash out your mouth every time you say Buddha. To contemporary environmentalists, I wish to say: Wash out your mouth every time you say “Nature” or “Environment”!
So long as we live fixated on our screens, unacquainted with the smell of dirt, we will remain caught in this double bind: alienated from nature, longing for “Nature.”
So long as we feel detached from nature, we will yearn for it — as if it were something separate, as if it were just a concept of our invention, as if we were not born-of and made-of it, as if we could even exist or survive without the relations that comprise it.
So long as we “grow” and “progress” and “develop,” we will dream in screenshots instead of landscapes. Forests, deer and wolves will be good for desktop pictures. We will cordon off our love for only a select few species of animals, while the rest we will use for food, clothing and entertainment.
This is why they don’t visit me in my dreams. Why they do not speak to us anymore. Why they run away when humans get close.
Chai tea may have been an oddity at Starbucks years ago, but having a lengthy list of leaf-based options has become all the rage among the barista set, thanks in part to consumers having had their fill of grounds.
Among specialty retailers like Starbucks, servings of hot tea rose 18% for the year ended February 2013, compared with a year earlier, according to NPD, while the iced variety showed solid growth of 5% over the same period. With the summer months upon us, many chains are rolling out a slew of cold options to quench customers' thirst.
In supermarkets, ready-to-drink tea has been booming for some time; during the past six years, it has grown 58%, to $3.8 billion in wholesale figures, from $2.4 billion. In the U.S. last year, ready-to-drink tea grew 5%, making it the fourth-fastest growing beverage category, according to Beverage Marketing Corp.; it's behind energy drinks, ready-to-drink coffee and bottled water.
Everything old is new again at Procter & Gamble Co., as A.G. Lafley steps in for the man who replaced him as CEO in a bounceback unprecedented for the packaged-goods giant but increasingly common elsewhere.
And P&G is making clear it's not expecting big shifts to come: “This won't result in a dramatic change in our strategies or our priorities,” said P&G Chief Financial Officer Jon Moeller in a brief listen-only call with investors May 24.
That didn't stop investors from feasting on the helping of executive comfort food, sending P&G's stock up 4% on Friday amid a flat market ahead of a holiday weekend. UBS upgraded the stock and other analysts applauded the move. Citi analyst Wendy Nicholson even called for Mr. Lafley to “bring back the band” and return more P&G alumni to the company.
Thomson Reuters/University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index
U.S. consumers are feeling pretty good right now — as good as they have since the pre-recession days of July 2007, according to one recently released key measure. But many marketers are unconvinced that the so-called new normal is about to be replaced by the old ebullience.
The Thomson Reuters/University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index posted a nearly six-year high this month. Its increase since November 2011 is stronger than any since the early 1980s, when the U.S. emerged from back-to-back recessions.
Gawker has always had the most delightfully codependent relationship with its readers. I do mean that in the psychological/clinical — i.e., unhealthy — sense. (And yes, I count myself among the unhealthily codependent.)
In its early days, a decade ago, the site focused on deconstructing a certain Manhattan-centric mind-set. It mercilessly poked fun at the absurdities rife in the media world, and in doing so served the needs of a media-industry readership that was always up for a little self-loathing. (Everybody loves bashing the media, but members of the media love doing it more than anyone.) It was very S&M.
That phase worked brilliantly — the media-chattering class became obsessed with reading Gawker. But as Gawker founder/owner Nick Denton's national and international ambitions grew, and he cycled through new editors and writers, his site's penetrating gaze drifted away from the usual suspects (because outside of the Manhattan media-world bubble, who really cares about, say, Tina Brown or Barry Diller?). Instead of just attacking pompous media mandarins, Gawker rather arbitrarily started ridiculing what would become known as “Gawker-famous” strivers — like Julia Allison, then a self-promoting 20-something editor-at-large at Star magazine with a tangled personal life (boyfriend problems!) that Gawker took great pleasure in exposing and exploiting. Allison got Gawker-famous enough that she ended up on the August 2008 cover of Wired magazine next to the headline “GET INTERNET FAMOUS! (EVEN IF YOU'RE NOBODY).”
ESPN shocked the media world last week when it announced substantial layoffs. That the move came on the heels of a couple of eye-popping deals only underscored the cutthroat battle between networks scrabbling for live-sports rights.

With most marketing books, their titles and subtitles make them seem way too pretentious and self-important. Which is why I had a feeling that Nathan Yau’s book Data Points: Visualization That Means Something could be refreshingly human.
And I was right. Yau, a statistician and the creator of FlowingData.com, has done something I’ve rarely seen: He’s made data interesting to read about. Data Points looks at all the ways data is presented these days, from all areas of life (he starts with a visual breakdowns of pictures taken at his own wedding, which is amusing.)
This is a thick book chock full of graphics, charts, and visualizations that show different ways to present data. But more importantly, Yau explains the nuanced ways graphics change our perception and understanding of the data’s meaning. A few design tweaks can completely alter the way we look at information, and Yau shows us how.
If you’re into things like infographics and mapping, or if you’re looking for better ways to present your data in easy-to-understand visuals, Data Points will fascinate you. By mixing up his subject matter and pulling from all areas of culture, Yau has created a book that’s nerdy, wonky, and fun all at the same time.
Special thanks for FSB Associates for providing me with a review copy.
