2007-11-05 21:11 A proud, but failing, state
By Peter Preston (THE GUARDIAN, 05/11/07): When, last year, America's heavyweight Foreign Policy magazine moved Pakistan into its top 10 of failed states - at No 9, just ahead of Afghanistan - assorted Islamabad ministers clambered on to the highest of horses. The charge was insulting, ludicrous ... But, baby, try it again now.Here is a huge Islamic nation, nuclear bombs primed not promised, plunged once more under full monty martial law. The army chief of staff who doubles as president has just …

2007-10-29 23:25 Pasado, presente y futuro de la cultura de remezcla
It is a truism today that we live in a œremix culture propone Lev Manovich en What comes after remix (versión .doc ): Today, many of cultural and lifestyle arenas - music, fashion, design, art, web applications, user created media, food - are governed by remixes, fusions, collages, or mash-ups. If post-modernism defined 1980s, remix definitely dominates 2000s, and it will probably continue to rule the next decade as well Pero mientras la remezcla es una forma de producción aceptada en la mús …

Stalin, Mao And Ahmadinejad In a speech last week, Rudy Giuliani said that while the Soviet Union and China could be deterred during the cold war, Iran can't be. The Soviet and Chinese regimes had a "residual rationality," he explained. Hmm. Stalin and Mao who casually ordered the deaths of millions of their own people, fomented [...]

To Our Readers Unfortunately, an older and unedited version of the COHA piece entitled œThe OAS: On its Deathbed was inadvertently sent out to a very small cohort of COHA readers on October 17 before an error was discovered and the press run was immediately aborted. Due to a computer editing error, the author, Sean Bartlett did not catch that two different facts were spliced into one sentence. Jose Miguel Insulza, as a young man in his late twenties, was a political director in the Chilean For …

2007-10-19 01:26 Putin Ramps up Cold War II with Nuclear Threat to the U.S.
Yup, I've said it before, and I'll say it again, "Putin is evil." No doubt about it... Putin goes live on TV phone-in to escalate nuclear war of words Luke Harding in Moscow Friday October 19, 2007 The Guardian President Vladimir Putin said yesterday that Russia was developing a new generation of nuclear weapons as part of a "big, grandiose" plan to boost the country's defences against the US.

By Camilla Cavendish (THE TIMES, 18/10/07): Tonight, Europe s leaders will be picking over some Euro-trivia along with their hors d oeuvres. The Austrians are worried that Germany might nick their medical students. The Poles want an extra court official on the European Court of Justice. The Bulgarians want to use the word œevro instead of œeuro which has upset the European Central Bank. These are, apparently, the last stumbling blocks to agreement on the draft EU treaty. No one at this dinne …

2007-10-18 10:57 Rush Limbaugh is Unpatriotic
Harry Reid said it, it must be true. During the phony controversy over Rush Limbaugh's calling phony soldiers "phony soldiers," it went almost unnoticed that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid called Limbaugh "unpatriotic." If the Democrats' own rhetoric is to be believed, that remark should have been universally met with shock and condemnation. That's because, since the start of the war, conservatives have accepted the premise that it's always wrong to question someone's patriotism. For the past …

What do you think I should call it COLD COLD WAR [since both poles are involved] HOT COLD WAR [since there could be some serious standoffs in hot places too] COLD WAR II [the boring alternative, could snap it up with: 2.0] WORLD WARMING WAR [since the world keeps warming while they are warring] Please advise.

2007-10-17 23:19 oh, joy, the more the merrier
[click picture] The story behind this breaking news is pretty funny. The source from which I took it was billing it as Britain jumping into the fray with Russia, and everybody else, in the Arctic and I started to fall for it... until that pesky little prefix in the actual article started boring a hole in my brain and I was forced to amend my post quickly! I'm uncertain whether to call it the Cold Cold War, the Hot Cold War or Cold War II or what... but as long as I can figure a way to keep them …

"Only one of them gets cold feet!" Great photo of Larry being upstaged by Pingu here at an Oracle seminar where the wag headline writers and Rule69 bloggers can have a field day with a caption contest, however there's some serious antarctic tension brewing between the Oracle and Alinghi camps as the 22nd October deadline approaches. Both sides have gone deathly quiet, virtually shutting down their rampant PR departments so I'm sniffing a compromise in the rarefied air of the America's Cup at the …

By Chriss Patten, the former European commissioner for external relations and chairman of the board of the International Crisis Group Crisisgroup.org (THE GUARDIAN, 17/10/07): For the third year in a row, Turkey's annual hurdles on the winding path of convergence with the EU - a progress report early next month and the European Council in December - are likely to be bruising. Doubters will seize on gridlock over Cyprus and a pause in legislative reform to allege that Turkey is not changing and s …

2007-10-16 23:29 a good thing
I wonder if we've been half as mind-fucked about Putin as we have about Ahmadinejad. It does occur to me, over and over, that even if they were as evil as they are portrayed, they still are better for us than our current administration. They are better for the world than this administration... and that is something never off my mind anymore. Earth needs room made for very big revolutions in technology immediately and these are impossible while everyone on the planet is rapt in the Risk game agai …

2007-10-16 18:42 Al Gore s œPulp Fiction
Guest Commentary by Edward Cline: As years go by the idea of Nobel Prizes for peace and literature becomes more and more lunatic. The criteria by which literature is measured and recognized by the Norwegian Nobel Committee remain unfathomable to an outside but critical observer. This year the Prize for literature went to Doris Lessing, a British author who wrote stories with ever-in-vogue feminist themes. But the individuals who screen nominees and award the Prizes for literature could just as w …

2007-10-16 16:07 The Cold War Reaches Knight's Castle
Edward Eager wrote Knight's Castle in 1956, and the anti-Communist ideology of the day even seeped into details of what otherwise seems to be a purely escapist fantasy for children. The novel's young protagonists enjoy life in a big, upper-class house, with the best in toys and hobby equipment. Aunt Katherine and Uncle John have a cook and a "poor maid," as well as an "art collection." Knight's Castle leaves that wealth unexamined. All that might be part of Eager's homage to E. Nesbit, of course …

2007-10-16 13:16 From Russia with pragmatism
By Simon Tisdall (THE GUARDIAN, 16/10/07): In typical he-man style, Russia's Vladimir Putin ignored an alleged plot to assassinate him and went ahead today with a visit to Tehran. Iran says the plot story was black propaganda fabricated by its enemies, which may well be true. Historically speaking, Russians need no outside help in doing away with their leaders. They manage perfectly well by themselves. It is also true though that, over the centuries, Persian-Russian relations have been spattered …

2007-10-16 11:41 TUESDAY, Oct. 16, 2007 - Michael Kaplan
Relative difficulty: Easy-Medium THEME: DATES (41A: Calendar units hidden in 20- and 61-Across and 11- and 35-Down) Didn't see the theme until I was done - common experience on early-week puzzles. It's not a terribly imaginative theme (buried-word themes are pretty standard fare), but lots of the non-theme fill is pretty colorful, and at least one of the theme answers makes me very happy. I got in and out in under five, which I consider a decent Tuesday time. Theme answers :20A: Relax during a d …
