“Ivan Illich was once asked what is the most revolutionary way to change society. Is it violent revolution or is it gradual reform? He gave a careful answer. ‘Neither. If you want to change society, then you must tell an alternative story.” • Tim Costello

At Least it's for a Noble Cause

This picture had "gotta put that on my blog" written all over it. What you're looking at is a South Korean soccer fan who was upset about his country's 2-0 loss to Switzerland in Group G of the World Cup. The man had just finished watching the match on an outside screen in Seoul, and was protesting against what he considers to be the referee's unfair judgment after South Korea's national team lost.

Say what you will, but we will never be considered a soccer country as long as we lack the passion that demands a partial disrobe in front of tens of thousands of passersby.
