You read it here first, for free (Dec 10 2003 05:58 GMT) - New York Times columnist and Oregon homeboy Nicholas Kristof warned on Saturday (in a column reprinted in The Oregonian today, but forget trying to find that online) that Howard Dean, though perhaps being right-on on the issues, is not electable.... |

'Use tax' vs. Alias (Dec 10 2003 05:58 GMT) - When I got home tonight, all I wanted to do was put on a cozy sweatshirt, drink hot chocolate, and watch Sunday's episode of Alias that I hadn't seen yet. So thinking about a 'use tax' just did not compete.... |

Aye, Hal, Such Commotion as if 'Twere the Globe (Dec 10 2003 05:57 GMT) - After a little preparation, New York City high school students were a rapt, if noisy, audience for Lincoln Center Theater's "Henry IV." [New York Times: Arts] '"They clearly had been very well prepared," Mr. Kline said of the students. "They were certainly very attentive and picked up on little things that often go unnoticed by other audiences. |

Gimpus: ZERO THE HERO (15 Year Killing Spree) (Dec 10 2003 05:54 GMT) - QUOTE (Lord Azazel @ Dec 7 2003, 04:25 PM) I think that Meat Hook Sodomy and Shredded Humans originally were on the European version only. Methinks you're right, but I'm not positive on that. The only ones I can find here in the States are the HSF/Exorcist/Zero the Hero copies. No Meat Hook Sodomy or Shredded Humans over here. |

Who really governs Iraq? (Dec 10 2003 05:53 GMT) - The Bush administration likes to tout the Iraqi Governing Council as representing Iraq but who really makes the decisions?The Pentagon has barred French, German and Russian companies from competing for $18.6 billion in contracts for the reconstruction of Iraq, saying the step "is necessary for the protection of the essential security interests of the United States."I guess that answers that question..... doesn't it? |

Free and independent (if it's in our current national interests) (Dec 10 2003 05:53 GMT) - I recall Bush saying, when speaking to Iraq earlier this spring"....freedom is God's gift to every person in every nation"I guess that's true if it's in U.S. national interests, and not if it isn't. Lets look at Taiwan, a multi-political-party democratic state (that has been passed back and forth between Japan & China a couple of times) headed up by an elected president that has said "We do not belong to the Communist state of China regardless of what they may say... |

El envite del velo (Dec 10 2003 05:53 GMT) - No llevará velo el día en que recoja el Nobel. Shirin Ebadi, opositora iraní y Premio Nobel de la Paz, sabe perfectamente que el velo no es un pintoresquismo indumentario, como tanto canalla disfrazado de progre se empeña en defender acá por la vieja Europa. García Márquez podía hacer el ridículo disfrazándose de indiecito para recoger su premio y volar luego con él a Cuba; era gratis. Una mujer iraní que aspire a ser algo más que una bestia de reproducción y carga, sabe que no es el “ |

Las vergüenzas europeas (Dec 10 2003 05:53 GMT) - El presidente Aznar se enfrentará este próximo fin de semana a lo que se puede considerar como su última revalida europea antes de abandonar el Palacio de la Moncloa. El Consejo Europeo de Bruselas se presenta como una de esas ocasiones en las que los intereses europeos se ponen patas arriba. Serán dos días en los que todo vale. La Europa comunitaria sufrirá uno de esos ataques colectivos a los que gusta someterse periódicamente. Y es precisamente en ese escenario, cuando le quedan tres meses en el puesto al jefe del Ejecutivo español, en el que se va a mover para mantener intacto el peso y el poder de España en el entramado de la Unión Europea. |
