Craig Timberg, Washington Post


> Major U.S. technology companies have largely ended the practice of quietly complying with investigators’ demands for e-mail records and other online data, saying that users have a right to know in advance when their information is targeted for government seizure.

> Fueling the shift is the industry’s eagerness to distance itself from the government after last year’s disclosures about National Security Agency surveillance of online services. Apple, Microsoft, Facebook and Google all are updating their policies to expand routine notification of users about government data seizures, unless specifically gagged by a judge or other legal authority, officials at all four companies said. Yahoo announced similar changes in July.

*** How To Lose $100 Million ***
<http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2014/05/tina-brown-how-to-lose-100-million-105907_full.html#.U2OXR1671lK>
Luke O'Brien, Politico


> Three years later, Brown will have tumbled completely out of journalism, Diller will have lost north of $100 million ($70 million alone of it as a result of the Newsweek merger, he recently told me), and Harman will be dead. The <i>NewsBeast</i> experiment will be ruled a historic failure, perhaps the last great magazine flameout. This is the after-action report.




*** When Ghosts Have Hobbies ***
<http://www.nytimes.com/2014/05/02/books/howard-normans-novel-next-life-might-be-kinder.html?partner=rss&emc=rss>
Janet Maslin, New York Times


> The premise of Howard Norman’s new novel is eerie enough to make the skin crawl. “Next Life Might Be Kinder” is narrated by a blocked, troubled writer named Sam Lattimore, who delivers an opening sentence worthy of the Noir Hall of Fame.

> “After my wife, Elizabeth Church, was murdered by the bellman Alfonse Padgett in the Essex Hotel, she did not leave me,” Sam begins. It is 1973, and Elizabeth has been “dead” for more than a year, but Sam goes on to say he has just seen her. He sees her most nights, doing exactly the same thing. She arranges books on a beach in Port Medway, Nova Scotia.

*** The Slow Death Of Purposeless Walking ***
<http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-27186709>
Finlo Rohrer, BBC


> "There is something about the pace of walking and the pace of thinking that goes together. Walking requires a certain amount of attention but it leaves great parts of the time open to thinking. I do believe once you get the blood flowing through the brain it does start working more creatively," says Geoff Nicholson, author of The Lost Art of Walking.
