Staggering Statistic

I just read this article on cnn.com about the prison population in America. It states that 1 in every 100 adults in the US are behind bars. Consider the following:

The report said the United States is the world's incarceration leader, far ahead of more populous China with 1.5 million people behind bars. It said the U.S. also is the leader in inmates per capita (750 per 100,000 people), ahead of Russia (628 per 100,000) and other former Soviet bloc nations which make up the rest of the Top 10.

China's population is over 1 billion (4x's the US) and they have 700,000 less people incarcerated!!!

Innovation

The front page of the March issue of Fast Company has a quote by Doug Merril, CIO of Google, which reads;

"Innovtion is super fragile. It's very easy to kill. We need a stubborn, rebellious attitude."

Nice.
