- Brasilianische Fußballer, die sich als aktive Christen hervortun, sind in den seltensten Fällen Katholiken (wie es überhaupt den Anschein hat, als verlöre die Katholische Kirche in Lateinamerika gegenüber chiliastischen protestantischen Sekten an Boden). Der ehemalige Bundesliga-Profi und Weltmeister von 1994, Jorginho (Bayer Leverkusen, Bayern München), der vor jedem Bundesligaspiel dem gegnerischen Spielführer eine Bibel zu überreichen pflegte, ist evangelikaler Baptist, desgleichen Paulo Sergio, der ebenfalls für Leverkusen und München gespielt hat, Bismarck und Taffarel, der Keeper der Weltmeisterelf von 1994. Merkwürdig, daß evangelische Sekten und Freikirchen auf erzkatholischem Boden solche Bekehrungserfolge erzielen. In Brasilien gehören mittlerweile 15 Prozent der Bevölkerung irgendeinem protestantischen Bekenntnis an. Kaka gehört, wie das Brüderpaar Socrates/Rai in den achtiger und neunziger Jahren, zu den wenigen brasilianischen Spielern, die der weißen Oberschicht des Landes entstammen. |

- Apparently some Ron Paul supporters have opened up a concerted attack on the FEC with the method by which they are funding the blimp... and like good capitalists are making a profit at it. One of the people central to the effort is a former FEC member. Read about it on Transterrestrial Musings. Washington DC is just such a target rich environment when one tries to come up with a short list of which agencies... |

- For I think there's a fault line that runs through "political blogging" which isn't in fact properly appreciated. There are those who blog for a specific group, for a party, for their tribe. And there are those who blog in support of certain ideas, or ideals. The former group will indeed be liable to capture by the centre ("don't rock the boat old boy, not now we've got back into power again") and the latter... |

- Alec Muffet, redoubtable trencherman that he is despite his dainty frame, pointed me at this splendiferous expression of the manifest superiority of western civilisation: Multi-bird roasts, where different types of bird are stuffed inside a larger one, have become the thing to carve this year - and the more birds involved the better. One of the top-sellers is the Waitrose four-bird roast: guinea fowl, duck and turkey breast stuffed inside a goose. Demand has soared... |

- A frosty reception awaits Santa Claus in Britain this year. It seems that the much-loved benefactor of children everywhere is, in fact, suspected of being guilty of a number of illegal practices. Greenpeace UK has accused Santa of 'environmental terrorism' by encouraging crass global consumerism without any effort to dispose of packaging and minimise waste. They have also attacked Santa for his record of pollution output and have demanded that he take steps to lower... |

- I recently finished reading Jonathan Knee's book, The Accidental Investment Banker, chronicling the period of 1994-2003 during which time our slightly jaundiced writer was working for two of the leading practitioners of mega-mergers and initial public offerings (IPOs), Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley. As someone who has worked on the fringes of this world here in London, I could relate to quite a lot of Knee's account. At the heart of it is his argument... |

While rootling around for stuff to link to from CNE Competition, I came across this: Left-wing Labour MPs are girding themselves for a rebellion over a European Union plan which they say could spell the end of the National Health Service. When left wing Labour MPs rebel, I at least hope for possible goodness. The European Commission will publish its health directive next week and it is meant to... |

- Amazon has just been ordered by the French state to stop delivering books for free, and in general to refrain from charging too little for books. This is just wrong, says Instapundit.

Since the Samizdata weblog has been one of the most important contributing factors for this change, I thought I would submit it to... |
