Gillian Welch sings “Black Star” at Bonnaroo 2007. Still one of my favorite Radiohead covers, and the only Gillian Welch song I own. I like the other stuff I’ve heard from her, just not enough to buy an album.

Sarah, you’re the greatest thing that’s ever happened to me. And you’re beautiful, you’re smart, you laugh at all of my stupid jokes, and you have this horrible habit of constantly saving my life. The truth is, you’re everything I thought I’ve always wanted and more.
Still from Shall We Dance, my favorite Fred & Ginger film. Here’s how big a fan I am of Fred Astaire: in high school, I had a still of him dancing on the ceiling in Royal Wedding up in my locker.

"In Texas, Austin Energy sells the most green power of any utility in the country, buying electricity from wind farms in west Texas. But its customers’ appetite for renewable power has shrunk with higher prices.
Earlier this year, it managed to sell only 1 percent of a batch of wind power it offered to customers — no doubt because the program would have added $58 a month to the average home electric bill. That was far more than in previous years, resulting from a combination of factors, like congestion of transmission lines in Texas.
The utility has since slashed the prices, and Roger Duncan, its general manager, said that Austin Energy might change its program so that its green power costs for future projects are spread to all customers — not just the few who voluntarily pay extra.
“If we’re going to transition to renewable energy,” Mr. Duncan said, “you can’t depend on a small percent of the customer base to do this."
