1. Austerity wine markets in everything.

2. Will Wilkinson blogs other stuff; “defamiliarization.”

3. It is legal to buy a tank and indeed there are “tank brokers.”  (Will there be a profession using tanks to discipline errant NYC nannies?)

4. The bottom line dilemma facing the Republican Party.  (Whoops, correct link here.)  And Matt on sequestration, and Josh Barro on sequestration.

6. Some kind of weird experiment with rats, caveat emptor.  And are special interests growing weaker?
