Crack!... Heads smoke for days from this freelancer's silver-bullet reporting on technology, power, politics and art. Words akin to adrenaline shots to the temples, fact-finding that confounds convention, eviscerates assumption, piddles on groupthink and opens minds. I cover music, film, theatre, art, technology, public policy, Wall Street, human interest and community affairs, profiling the people, cultural trends, market forces and shifting political winds that impact us all. |

Regulation is coming to the credit default swaps (CDS) market.
