- I finished the 1st disc of The Appendices on TT: Extended. It makes the movie even more phenomenal. I can't get enough of this stuff. The Gollum feature is a must see and really proves that Andy Serkis was robbed of an Oscar last year. |

- Lu sur A-infos : " Nous publions aujourd'hui une compilation de textes sur un sujet relativement tabou dans le mouvement anarchiste : les pratiques autoritaires qui existent au sein même de notre mouvement et de nos différents groupes, syndicats, organisations... Le fait de nous réclamer de l'anarchisme, courant politique basé sur le rejet de toute forme de domination, d'exploitation, d'autoritarisme ne nous épargne pas d'avoir à subir dans notre propre mouvement, et ce malheureusement de manière assez récurrente, des pratiques leaderistes, bureaucratiques, manipulatrices, autoritaires. |

- Mais le break a été salvateur croyez-moi ..pendant le silence des tonnes de petites chances m ont permis de refaire peu à peu surface .. Mais ces petits riens ne seraient que des riens du tout sans lui et ceci expliquant cela, cela explique aussi le silence de ces derniers temps . Il ne nous restaient que quelques jours pour profiter 24H/24H l un de l autre . |

- Lu sur Indymédia Liège : "La justice clémente pour les assassins de Semira Adamu. 1an avec sursis pour trois inculpés, 14 mois avec sursis pour le responsable, acquittement pour un policier "observateur", voilà ce que coûte la vie d'une jeune femme. Nous pouvons imaginer qu'un jeune blanc, sans casier judiciaire, qui aurait commis un petit vol aurait obtenu la même chose. |

- I left the house at 3am this morning, meetup with my hunting buddy at 4am and we headed to Lake Kaufman. About 5:05 one of the leaf springs broke on the boat trailer and we managed to completly rip the axel off with out even knowing it. It was muddy and we thought the road was just sticky not that we were pull up a swath of mud. So there was nothing we could do since everyone was asleep. |

- behind the curve on this story, so forgive me, but its not because I wasn't aware of it. In fact, I heard about the rumors a few days ago on the radio. I just thought I'd give it a day to seep in to the little crevices in my psyche...give it some time to marinate so to speak. So, when it was just right I could take it out and oPEN UP A CAN OH WUPASS ON YOU YANKEE FANS! |

- I'm stuck in EVV again for almost 24 hours. After winding down, I decided to head down to the business center to check a few websites and such. I have learned with public computers to always check active processes and the browser's security settings before doing anything. You guessed it! Just like the last time I was here, this computer was loaded down with adware and spyware. |

- So the Big Read has just announced the final results of the popular vote for best loved fiction in the UK: The Lord Of The Rings Pride And Prejudice His Dark Materials The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire I think the most interesting question is how heavily is this list biased by recent film and TV exposure? If the Lord Of The Rings movies hadn't come out and been so successful, would it have really done so well? Pride And Prejudice was recently aired as a TV series last summer. |

- I'm singing on the radio again on Monday morning. It's nothing too new for me, as I've done it several times before. But it's always a bit exciting and scary, simply because of the possibility of everything going wrong in the live transmission. If you want to listen, you'll have to tune your wireless to BBC Radio 4 Long Wave (not FM) at 9:45am. |
