  1. Some thoughts on spaces and communities in the modern world.
  2. Trying to parse Mr Obama’s notions on the Israel, Iran, and Hamas.
  3. Austrian econ.
  4. Angels &* Demons and a “worst novel” noted.
  5. An absurd op-ed noticed.
  6. Getting away with it. It occurred to me that we outside the beltway and the business of politics are always confused why politicians assume they can “get away” with blatant lies and flat denials of the obvious. I think one suggestion is that they do it because from their point of view it usually works.
  7. On marriage, the plastic mask, and the lack of good role models.
  8. On the demand driven economy.
  9. A health update from David.
  10. Spending some money, suggestions sought.
  11. A paper (linked from here).
  12. An interesting post, but it kicks off with a quote which is flatly wrong as a generalization.
  13. Heh.
  14. A criticism of “thinking globally” as an excuse.
  15. Gossip and history.
  16. Mr Greenwald excuses Ms Dowd somewhat lamely, claiming “And anyone who spends any time writing a blog, or anything else for that matters, should consider it a good thing when their work is used, with or without credit.  Nobody would engage in that activity in the absence of a belief that they have something worthwhile to say and a desire that it have some impact on political discussions.” Bloggers link what they quote. And to assume that there is any one generic reason common to the millions who blog is errant foolishness.

  12. Kilns and cheap energy.
  13. A cyclist to watch.
  14. Maudlin hymns.
  15. Obvious in retrospect.
  16. Abortion and a cricket race result. For those who have used the argument of public opinion as relevant in the abortion debate, does this mean anything. And if not, why did you use that argument before?

  14. Hmmm. I didn’t see it once too … over there.
  15. If the narrative that the “tide of democracy” is going to overtake the world is still alive … I’ve a question. Do you think the common person has more or less influence in the government and expressed authority today or 100 years ago? Less free or more free today than in 1809?

  1. I think it’s the press who has a “thing” about gays. I’d bet dollars to donuts that same Christian college would suspend a student for participation in porn without the ever popular “gay” tag … and the linked article supports that contention.

  1. Well, here’s Obama’s big “budget balancing” act. Numerically speaking, I think if his recent cut $500m had been $17b and today $17b had been in excess of an order of magnitude larger.
  2. The ordinary as more influential.
  3. Some images from an interesting photo site, Orthophoto. A few more here.

  15. God and Star Trek.
  16. Democrats, the party of the intellectually arrogant, proof here. I don’t think he grasps what “free inquiry” actually means.
  17. Unions.
