ערבים השחיתו דגלי ישראל ביפו. האם נמצא את הביטוי האהוב כל כך על התקשורת "תג מחיר" בכיסוי האירוע? האם כתב מיינסטרימי ישראלי המכבד את עצמו יקדיש לאייטם הזה יותר מ75 מילים?

כן, ממש "מתנה" למדינה.
לפי הדיווח אינטל תקבל מענק של 750 מיליון ש"ח מהמדינה עבור בניית מפעל בעלות של 5-6 מיליארד ש"ח. אבל העובדה ש750 המיליון האלה מגיעים ממשלם המיסים איננה מוזכרת.
האם זה הגיוני ליטול כל כך הרבה כסף מכלל האזרחים בשביל לספק הנאה לקבוצה מצומצמת של האוכלוסייה (עובדי אינטל ומעגל התמיכה שלהם)? או אולי שלטון אוהדי החלון המנופץ ממשיך במדיניות של להרוויח שקל היום כדי להשכיח הפסד של 2 ש"ח למחר?

You know something's wrong with your economy when a mascot of a fast food chain becoming a user of social media is financial news.
So now an adult male clown who will sell victuals of dubious quality and nutritional value over a medium already inundated with mostly useless information is relevant to actual production because...?

New and old ways of dealing with the winter blues
As Scandinavia is enveloped in darkness for most of the day during the winter, denizens can get moody too. How to combat this? In the WSJ from today we learn that:
[in this] type of weather...Some people sit a few minutes a day in front of therapeutic lamps, which have been proven to help in studies. Other fixes range from light-emitting headphones to new daylight savings times to mirrors on hill tops.
A brilliant insight by a "Sancho Panza", at the end, in the comments section (of course):

If you're about to buy chinos
If you were by chance debating between getting the Lands End chino (you know, because you want to save the $10) or the Banana chino (you know, because Banana actually knows how to make some decent apparel), here's my advice: Get the Banana chino. Simply, it will last longer and look better . How do I know? A year ago I bought a pair of Bananas and this past April I bought a pair of LEs. At this stage, after both have seen a good amount of mileage (Bananas actually more, bc they were bought earlier) and have gone through at least 40 washes, the Bananas are looking and feeling quite good whereas the LEs are starting to look like crap. By the Bananas, the pant fabric doesn't show any signs of wear or fading. They did shrink a bit, but that's it. The LEs on the other hand, have started to lose their color and are showing serious signs of a few laundrys too many. I'm talking about cotton hairs/fuzz coming out from the surface of the fabric. Not cool. I do have to say that the LEs are navy and the Bananas beige, which would make fading more apparent in the LEs, but in terms of fabric texture and quality that wouldn't excuse any discrepancy between the brands.
