These are my links for February 25th through February 27th:
- 362 – Greek To Me: Mapping Mutual Incomprehension « Strange Maps – An interesting mapping of which languages are the quintessential index of gobbledygook in other languages. Interestingly, no one seems to think of English as being beyond comprehension. Hat tip to arabist.net

- ei: New Orleans intifada – "New Orleans' immigrant communities are often ignored or under-represented. But through grassroots organizing, legal action and political lobbying, Asian and Latino organizations in the city have won some important victories. Activists from New Orleans' Arab population — which is largely Palestinian — have expressed hope that they can follow these examples."
- Lessons in Geography (Dennis Ross Edition) – Apparently Egyptians aren't the only ones who can't seem to figure out which continent they're on.
