Photographs Of Marine (And Other Forms Of) Life (Oct 04 2003 03:59 GMT) - Seafood For Thought: Ocean Pin-ups. A searchable immensity of fascinating photographs of aquatic creatures, among others. It's a commercial site but unusually generous to the casual browser.

Blogger News Item (Oct 04 2003 03:57 GMT) - How about blog-based print journals?. We're spending a lot of time way too much, perhaps on questions about how existing journals accept blogging and put it to good use.

Seven die in Pakistan bus attack - BBC (Oct 04 2003 03:57 GMT) - "Gunmen have opened fire on a bus carrying Shia Muslim worshippers in Pakistan's city of Karachi, killing seven and wounding seven, police said."While most of the world media classified this incident as one of secterian violence, the Pakistani media reported it as an attack on the employees of Pakistan's space agency. PakTribune reports 6 SUPARCO employees killed in ambush. I wonder if the world media is too naive to understand local matters, or is the Pakistani media trying to put the blame elsewhere? |

Sailing away (Oct 04 2003 03:56 GMT) - This post on the nature of blogging has gotten me bitten once again with the urge to write: I'm glad Michael hearkened back to Greek and Roman concepts of storytelling, because someone once told me that modern people look at time as if we are on the prow of a ship cutting through the sea. The past is behind us, the future lies ahead. This is the heroic American posture familiar from film and legend. The Greeks, my friend told me, viewed time as if we were in the stern of a ship moving across the ocean looking back at our wake. |
