We have all heard of the ravaging floods in Pakistan...Angelina Jolie, who is a Goodwill Ambassador for the UN,makes a passionate plea, and tells CNN's Sanjay Gupta: "I think it's complicated. I'm here with UNHCR and they've been in this country for 32 years, and I've been here four times and there's been four different reasons to come. There's one crisis after another. They've pretty much confronted every different type of disaster." There are many charities collecting funds for the affected people - please donate! So you think you had a great idea to use the net to do business with the "flat" world? Well, others have had some too, including this one which was written about in NY Times: "Driven by what they call a "personal passion" for art, the Vaziranis started Saffronart to combat problems they faced as young art collectors. "When we went out to buy art, we found two things difficult," said Ms. Vazirani, 39, the president of the company and a former management consultant. "One was trying to figure out the price of a work, because you could walk into two different galleries and have a work by the same artist, in similar size and from a similar period, priced quite differently, sometimes as much as 30 to 35 percent. The other part we found hard was getting access. You might go into a gallery but you weren't necessarily shown the best work."...click here for more details.

A fascinating article in Fortune magazine , showing how someone follows their passion, does it real well, and without any monetary motives - and gets noticed in a big way. Doerr and Gates as fans? Shout-outs in front of world's 2000 top thinkers? Amazing... Kudos to Sal Khan, and his Khan Academy. Read More...

MUSIC Red Baraat ![Red Baraat]() Sometimes ideas come from the strangest sources.
If you have been to India and attended a wedding (preferably a boisterous Punjabi wedding), you know what an important part is the "band" in the wedding procession. These musicians, probably around 20-25 of them, in their fancy uniforms harmonize to the latest Bollywood tunes, to get the guests in a dancing mood (and therefore get tips)...
