One can just imagine the result if–in some Middle Eastern country that had already attacked America and killed many of her people on several occasions–a mob of several thousand religious fanatics bearing lit torches gathered in the middle of the night chanting “Death to America” while threatening all sorts of apocalyptic outcomes if their demands weren’t met. Even moreso, if some of these same people had been caught on video a mere few weeks previous calling the new American president a “nigger

Hats off to Mark Mazzetti of the New York Times for rooting out what it was that sent CIA Director Leon Panetta scurrying over to Congress in late June. According to Mazzetti, Panetta’s top lieutenants, many of them holdovers from the last administration, had just told him that, under President Bush, they had farmed out assassinations to their Blackwater subsidiary. I use “they” advisedly, since the CIA holdovers that had kept Panetta in the dark continue to function as Panetta’s top ma

St Columba, Giverny – photo by Soliel Snook One interesting development in Virtual Worlds, particularly in the Vintage and Steampunk sims, is the growth of churches and church services. The ones that I have become aware of are either ecumenical of vaguely Anglican in tone of procedure, sometimes following the Book of Common Prayer or similar, but sometimes with a decidedly Second Life twist – at a marriage service I attended today, the couple pledged marriage vows: “As long as we both shall

Last week I attended the IEEE International Conference on Granular Computing 2009 in Nanchang, China. I had done my preparations to report about it also during the conference, but, alas, I was not allowed to even read my own blog, let alone posting to it; see [ footnote 1 ] below for some observations on non-accessible blogs. This being the situation, hereby then a slightly belated report.

One of Akron resident Christin Keck’s first two novels, which she has published simultaneously, was written as part of 2008′s National Novel Writing Month, the annual project that motivates authors to turn out a 50,000-word novel by limiting the writing time to the month of November. Obituary is the deathbed memoir of a clairvoyant woman who breaks off an engagement after learning the unpleasant thoughts of her first fiance; the second, whom she meets just before World War II, is honorable, but his espionage work leads her into danger.

Plant and her colleagues began speculating that their surprising numbers had something to do with candidate Barack Obama.

Studies of racial attitudes grapple with Obama factor
In India, conflict between a Hindu student group and Muslim students has surfaced at SVS College in the Indian state of Karnataka. UAE’s The National reported yesterday that officials at the private, state-assisted, college imposed an illegal ban on Muslim students wearing the hijab (headscarf) under pressure from the student branch of the right-wing Hindu Bharatiya Janata Party, the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP). Ever since the ABVP won college elections that gave it control of the student union, it has created unrest as it has pressed for a ban on the hijab and burqa.
