YLE uutiset / Kotimaa Enemmistö suomalaisista hyväksyy Kiina-ilmiön Suurin osa suomalaisista hyväksyy talouden niin sanotun Kiina-ilmiön. Helsingin Sanomien teettämään kyselyyn vastanneista 51 prosenttia on sitä mieltä, että työn ja tuotannon siirtyminen halvemman työvoiman maihin pitää hyväksyä. Suomalaisten weblogien verkosto keskustelevana julkisuutena Weblogit tarjoavat mallin osallistavasta, nopeasti reagoivasta ja tiivisti verkottuneesta julkisesta sfääristä.

2007-10-13 12:26  A Little Less Blogification
Hmm, well, it's amazingly unlikely that I'll be posting much in the next few weeks (a lot of commitments, not least of which is, as I said yesterday, trying to polish off my too-long-in-the-writing novel so I have a clean slate for NaNoWriMo in November). So. To keep you folks entertained in my absence, here are a selection of links to other places of interest on the interweb. Even if you get through them all in a day, check back regularly, as a lot of them are updated on a daily basis and yes, …

2007-09-21 18:45  A brief history of scapegoating English teachers in Korea
[Update] - There are updates for January 1997, Febrary 1998 and April 2007. What follows isn't necessarily all scapegoating, but a look at how the Korean media have reported on and represented foreign English teachers here since 1996, which also handily helps provide a brief history of this foreign community as well. A big hat tip to the Marmot for his translations of articles over the past few years, as well as Mongdori, where videos of several TV broadcasts can be found (which saved me the tro …

2007-09-06 13:30  Draw one for the Gipper
Ronald Reagan: A Graphic Biography Slate magazine has a preview up of the new Ronald Reagan "graphic biography" by Andy Helfer, Steve Buccellato and Joe Staton. The book arrives in comic book stores today, and apparently some conservative pundits aren't too happy with it : Of course, one can't expect much of a comic-book biography. In a comic book of less than 100 pages, which is what this appears to be, how much actual text - you know, the actual biography - can it contain Twenty normal pages T …

In 2004 Residents Action Movement ran a slate of candidates in the Auckland local body elections. They secured 87,000 votes city wide and elected one Regional Councillor, Robyn Hughes. This year they are even more ambitious ;RAM is looking at getting 200,000 votes. This is a realistic target given our quality candidates and our cutting-edge œmessage billboards which take up real issues concerning the majority of Greater Auckland s residents.

2007-09-04 17:23  Oliver Stone to film life of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
L ast month they called each other names : Iran's president rejected an offer from director Oliver Stone to make a movie about him saying "It is right that this person is considered part of the opposition in the U.S. but opposition in the U.S. is a part of the Great Satan." Stone bristled back, "I wish the Iranian people well and only hope their experience with an inept, rigid ideologue president goes better than ours." Oh, snap! But they seem to have patched up their differences: Reuters, Iran …

2007-08-31 06:41  Decisions on Energy Usage
Thinking about unintended consequences yesterday in my post, reminded me about something I read in the early 90s. I think this article, Road to Nowhere, makes several crucial points about the unintended consequences of ignoring information that is already out there when making decisions. This is especially true about setting an overarching policy for the public, such as the proposals for energy conservation and usage. In œ Road to Nowhere , by Herbert Inhaber and Harry Saunders, in the New York …

2007-08-31 00:00  Le Musée du Fumeur: My new story in The Smart Set
Earlier this month I had an essay appear in The Smart Set, a new online arts and culture magazine out of Drexel University in Philadelphia. My story, Le Musée du Fumeur, explores Paris's " Museum of Smoking " on the eve of a law that will ban indoor smoking in the city. I write: Wander through the 11th arrondissement of Paris toward the dead celebrities of Pere Lachaise Cemetery, and there's a decent chance you'll stumble across a small gallery called "Le Musée du Fumeur." Unlike the hallowed ha …

2007-08-30 19:00  August Is A Cruel Month
Seriously. They read our bill wrong last month - so this actually represents a month and a half worth of electricity. It also represents in my mind a small fortune. Or a lot of yarn. Depending on how you look at it. The painting inspector, while quite impressed by our paint job on 2 sides of the house, told me that NO, actually, that wasn't good enough. So the painting and scraping continued on for another 3 weeks past his initial visit, and was (hopefully in his eyes) finished this past weekend …

2007-08-28 20:29  Obviously, Newspapers Are Dying, But
I regard it as a very good day for media consumption when one of my favorite web sites ( Slate ) writes a story about one of my favorite topics (the future of the newspaper industry). As is almost always the case, Slate's analysis was dead on the mark. Jack Shafer's piece, ' Already Chewed News ,' is worth reading for anyone who wants to get a sense of how newspapers are going to have to position themselves in a drastically altered media landscape in the years ahead.
