2007-11-05 21:07 The Iraq war has become a disaster that we have chosen to forget
By Madeleine Bunting (THE GUARDIAN, 05/11/07): "You think you are innocent, but you're not," said the British Muslim suicide bomber in the Channel 4 television drama Britz last week. As the compelling actor Manjinder Virk recited her suicide statement to camera, she went on: thousands of women and children are dying every day in Iraq and Afghanistan, and yet the governments responsible have been returned to power.Her assertion sticks in the mind because it goes straight to the heart of how we ch …

2007-10-17 18:42 America Ferrera Finds Fame Has It's Downside
Emmy-winning actress America Ferrera says she had to move out of her Hollywood home after network bosses ruled she was at risk to attracking stalkers. Even though no threats were made, the rising star was advised to find a house with better security after they discovered how close fans could get to her. After all, the 'Ugly Betty' celebrity has just been named 'Hispanic Woman of the Year' by the Hollywood Reporter and Billboard and she stars in one of the top programs on prime time TV.

2007-10-16 13:27 Why Al Gore Should Run for President
Should Al Gore get involved in the 2008 Presidential race it exponentially increases the GOP's chance of holding on to the White House. About a month ago, I was on my way to the Old South Meeting House to see former Nixon White House counsel John Dean speak. As I approached the entrance, a man standing outside the door asked me if I wanted to sign a petition to draft Al Gore to run for the White House in 2008. I ignored the man, walked inside and laughed to myself. But now that Al Gore has won t …

From BeliefNet Well known for his liberal political activism, Martin Sheen is a Catholic who chose his stage name in honor of Catholic theologian Fulton J. Sheen. Though he strayed from the Church, he returned after falling seriously ill during the filming of "Apocalypse Now." Sheen, an Emmy and Golden Globe winner, has often been quoted linking his faith and his activism. "You know, the essence of the Gospel of Jesus was extremely radical, and that's why they killed Him," he told one interviewe …

2007-10-13 23:25 More Gore
As I'm sure you all know, yesterday Al Gore added to his Academy Award and Emmy the Nobel Peace Prize, thus completing the liberal Triple Crown. Most of the MSM has been praising Gore and touting the Nobel as his "vindication." Today, however, the Goracle's arch-nemesis Bjorn Lomborg has an excellent op-ed in the Boston Globe, of all places. If you're familiar with Lomborg, who doesn't get nearly the same amount of publicity as the Goracle, you know that he always provides a clear, concise count …

What, pray tell, is Al's jaw-dropping accomplishment No, no, he did not go back to high school and pick up his diploma.

Hamlet played by David Meyer. Hamlet played by Tony Meyer. Directed by Celestino Coronada. Balanced precariously between art piece and feature film, Celestino Coronada s Hamlet is not for the faint hearted. Sometimes described as The Naked Hamlet, it cuts the poetry to ribbons has little regard for the story (Ophelia s madness is shown even though Polonius s death isn t) and instead sets about emphasizing every shred of the apparent homoerotic and incestuous subtext present in the play almost t …

2007-09-18 17:01 Thinking Outside the "Dick in a Box"
Conspicuously absent from Sunday's Emmy Awards were Andy Samberg and Justin Timberlake, winners of this year s award for Outstanding Original Music and Lyrics. Although the duo was rumored to appear, their song - an R&B craft project that's now the sixth most-viewed video on YouTube - was ultimately deemed too hot for primetime. Their Emmy represents more than a new age of obscenity for television awards - it represents an important moment for designers. DIY has officially trumped mass-produced, …

ODE TO LUDWIG Back in 1956, Chuck Berry's hit song "Roll Over Beethoven" told the composer to get out of the way. But Beethoven still isn't budging. Themes from his best-known works are heard everywhere from TV commercials to cell phone ringtones. His life is the subject of books and movies. And live concerts continue to showcase his achievements. It's all proof that, 180 years after his death, the German composer remains a cultural icon with remarkable clout. Here's why Beethoven's so big: The …
