Dieter Rams: ten principles for good design
Back in the early 1980s, Dieter Rams was becoming increasingly concerned by the state of the world around him – “an impenetrable confusion of forms, colours and noises.” Aware that he was a significant contributor to that world, he asked himself an important question: is my design good design?
As good design cannot be measured in a finite way he set about expressing the ten most important principles for what he considered was good design. (Sometimes they are referred as the ‘Ten commandments’.)

Play by British Wunderkind Gets New York Staging - NYTimes.com
The argument to stay in school and finish that college degree just got a whole lot harder to make: the 23-year-old British playwright Polly Stenham, who was just 19 years old when she dropped out of University College London to finish her critically acclaimed play “That Face,” will soon see the drama performed in New York, in a production staged by Manhattan Theater Club. In a news release, publicists for Manhattan Theater Club said that its production of “That Face,” about a family struggling with drugs, alcohol and dissolution, will star Elizabeth Marvel (of Broadway’s “Top Girls”) as the family matriarch, Martha, and will be directed by Sarah Benson (who directed “Blasted” for the Soho Rep, where she is artistic director). The play is scheduled to begin previews at New York City Center – Stage I on April 29, with an opening night planned for May 18. Additional casting is expected to be announced shortly.

Lou Dobbs mulls White House bid - POLITICO.com
Less than two weeks after announcing his departure from the cable network — and after a series of interviews in which Dobbs encouraged speculation about his political plans — the anchorman known to fans as “Mr. Independent” finally made his presidential ambitions explicit on former Sen. Fred Thompson’s radio show Monday.
Asked if he might make a run at the White House in 2012, Dobbs answered flatly: “Yes is the answer.”
