- Экс-гендиректор телекомпании ВВС Грег Дайк раскритиковал премьер-министра Великобритании Тони Блэра по поводу иракской войны и его отношению к телекомпании. В статье, опубликованной в воскресенье изданиями The Observer and Mail, Дайк обвиняет Блэра в некомпетенции и лжи парламенту о войне в Ираке и оружии массового поражения. «Мы все были обмануты. Что действительно страшно, это то, что Блэр все еще не верит или не понимает, что он в корне ошибался», - пишет Дайк. Кроме того, бывший глава ВВС заявляет, что Блэр «спустил собак» на ВВС, после того как действия телекомпании были раскритикованы в докладе комиссии по расследованию смерти военного эксперта Дэвида Келли. |

Lachrymae (Aug 29 2004 06:49 GMT) - I’ve lucked out in my music shopping in recent months and ended up with a stack of excellent recordings I’ve been meaning to write up. Let’s start with this one (Warner Classics 2564 60190-2) subtitled Music for strings, featuring the Chamber Orchestra of Europe under three different conductors. Some of the music works a little better than others: Tippet’s Fantasia concertante is a bit of a yawner, but the two chunks of Purcell, arranged by Britten and Stokowski, are both magic, as is Vaughan Williams’ Fantasia on a theme by Thomas Tallis and the William Walton pieces from the Henry V movie soundtrack. Rather English in theme, you observe? |

- I've done more and more links to Wikipedia--and I'll continue to do so, despite criticism of this open-content gem.Wikipedia is no substitute for demon research, but is a superb way to get a quick overview of a topic. As a blogger linking in, I can devote more space to my main points and less space to the basics. Granted, Wikipedia could use more input from librarians, and fixed-in-time versions could aid citing and otherwise help; it is not infallible. |

- Yesterday, I signed up for Fido's unlimited Canada and US GPRS mobile data service for $CAN 50/month. I have to say that after less than a day that it rocks. While we were shopping on Main, I Google'd shop names and checked out tons of sites on my brand new 7610! Fun (even though it feels like 9600 baud)! Flat rate, mass market, mobile data available anywhere is the future worldwide. |
