I contend that there is a time and a season for this brand of libertarianism, such as debating at the city council meeting about a 1% proposed sales tax increase, when testifying to congress about electronic voting machines, at OPH booths or even hemp fests (sans tie and jacket, perhaps). However, there are seasons when it is, or at least should be, a time of war. At least war in the political sense. Let us look at some facts. |

- I see indications that people are switching to WordPress. Perhaps it would be better to take the focus off the bad that some people are doing to weblog interchange formats and APIs, and focus on making sure WordPress is doing a good job. Is there a summary page somewhere about the formats and protocols that WordPress supports, and some examples? I found this discussion thread that sheds some light. Their feeds actually look pretty good, from what I've seen so far. |

- Project Steve Guttenberg (PSG) is a PHP-driven diary/journal/blogging application that integrates seamlessly into an existing Web site. It provides many of the core features (including comments, archives, searching, and an RDF feed) and administrative controls (all Web-based) of other, larger systems, but doesn't use a database, is XHTML 1.0-compliant and its look can be completely customised via CSS. It can easily be scaled to host several journal sites with a single installation. |

- Inside New York: Off B'way attracting big names to small venues -- West of Ninth Avenue, in a small Off Broadway theater, a dozen actors came to understand what ensemble acting truly meant: cramming into two dressing rooms and taking only shared bows, no solo strutting. Nothing unusual there, except that two of the "Aunt Dan and Lemon" cast members come from the trailer-and-assistant world of movies and television: Lili Taylor ("Six Feet Under," "High Fidelity") and Kristen Johnson ("Third Rock From the Sun"). |

- Запрещенная в Непале маоистская компартия внесена в список террористических организаций, который регулярно составляет и обновляет госдепартамент США. Это означает, что членам этой организации запрещен въезд на территорию Соединенных Штатов. По словам посла США в Непале Джеймса Мориарти, маоисты регулярно грубо нарушают права человека своей практикой пыток, убийств и похищений людей. Как заявил посол, США готовы тесно сотрудничать со всеми своими международными партнерами, чтобы оказать содействие Непалу в деле борьбы с маоистами. |
