- Here is what General Myers said as quoted in the New York Times today: General Myers, speaking on "Meet the Press" on NBC, said criticism of the war plan was not fair. "Nobody ever promised a short war," he said. "This is going to be a tough war, a tough slog yet, and no responsible official I know has ever said anything different. |

- Here's a pretty good article on Raijin Comics Weekly. The article gets a few things wrong though. Raijin Comics Weekly is not the first Japanese manga to be translated to english (though it (or Shonen Jump) may be the first comic in this format to be translated)). It is amazing how much the manga market has grown in the last year though. The number of titles being translated is growing rapidly. |

- A break from war stuff. It lookslike the tape in the recorder miraculously survived the catastrophic destruction of Columbia. They are getting very good information indicating that region on the left wing started heating up as soon as the shuttle hit the atmosphere. I wish at much effort had been spent on simulations of the foam hitting the wing before they hit reentry. We will never know what we might have been able to accomplish. |

- It is time to reflect on one of the most influential video games of all time. Even the oldest and wisest people in the world appreciate what a great game Castlevania is. I've always known it to be so, and now you have photographic proof. Look at the awe and wonder in their eyes. Back in their day, there was no Castlevania. |

Tonight was the last class and it has been a little difficult this year because of all the holidays that fell on Monday. With that many holidays it makes it hard to get into a rhythm. |

- Iraqi Military Tactics - An Atrocity or Necessity? "Where do you stand on Iraq's unconventional tactics of war? American leaders and citizens have expressed outrage and anger over Iraq's use of war tactics involving deception, incognito, and suicide. Their tactics have evolved and adapted to the dynamic American war plan - shifting from pretending to surrender as a means to engage American and British troops, all the way to now committing suicide attacks against stationary troops."

- I've waited several weeks (eight actually) to blog about this, but there has been one silver lining to my current round of medical issues. Weight Loss!!!! Treatment for both Vulvodynia and Vestibulodynia includes tricyclic antidepressants - and not because one is depressed about one's illness (although it can very depressing). The tricyclics seem to help with the whole nerve and muscle malfunctioning that leads to both conditions. Two years ago when I last had issues, I used amitriptyline - an old reliable standby. |
