- The left: Saddam Hussein may be bad, but Haliburton is worse! This columnist at AlterNet (the alternate reality news source) is not making any attempts to hide his frustration with the arrest of Saddam Hussein, and belittles it. Just a day or two earlier, Halliburton, the company whose former leader just happens to be Vice President Cheney and which had the good fortune to get a fat billion-dollar no-bid Iraq reconstruction contract, was being excoriated by the Pentagon for some $60 million worth of inflated invoices. |

- En marge du Sommet de l'Information de Genève, I-Télévision a consacré samedi après-midi un court reportage à Richard Stallman. Présenté en début de reportage comme « la bête noire des géants du logiciel », après un plan le montrant devant sont portable en train de taper un texte, l'interview se poursuit chez lui, où, assis dans un vieux fauteuil, il explique dans un français approximatif que les logiciels libres c'est comme une recette de cuisine qu'on peut donner librement à ses amis ou modifier comme l'on veut. Et histoire d'en remettre une couche sur le registre culinaire, on le voit ensuite se préparer du thé. Malheureusement pas très fringuant le baba-cool que le reportage présentait comme la bête noire des géants du logiciels. Seul point « combattif » du reportage, la dénonciation (assez molle, français dans le texte oblige) des pressions et méthodes de Microsoft (« ce n'est pas éthique ») avec comme conclusion : |

- Amir Taheri lays out some pros and cons about Saddam's capture: SADDAM'S arrest may have other effects, some negative and some positive. First the negative possible effects: * The removal of the fear that he may one day come back to power could end the restraint that many Iraqis have exercised in expressing themselves since liberation. They may now wish to come out with the 1,001 grievances that they have accumulated over decades, posing demands that would be hard to meet in a... |

- TV Reviews: Mid-life romantic comedy, directed by Nisha Ganatra ("Chutney Popcorn") and written by Sabrina Dhawan ("Monsoon Wedding"), boasts friendly cross-cultural fireworks between stars Roshan Seth and Carol Kane, enjoying meaty screen role. Charming short story adaptation sidesteps rarified, over-literary small-screen look. |

- Film Reviews: Fascinating, non-musical post-Soviet spin, Alexander Khvan's "Carmen" expertly meshes political and psychological destiny in a well-paced crime thriller. Cerebral rather than impassioned, pic is told from the point of view of the fallen Don Jose character. Pic may stand as too much of a generic hybrid for American tastes. |
