Where is Peter Van Loan?

Tue, 02 Sep 2008 09:52:58 PDT
The Hon. Peter Van Loan likes to go to Republican conventions. He has memorabilia from different conventions in his Ottawa office. I think he likes to go not just to learn but to feel the energy of the Republican election machine. There was a news article about a week ago that said he was going to the convention now taking place in St. Paul, Minnesota. Yet try as I might I could not find any news outlet that confirms that he went. The fact that he was on Newsworld yesterday may indicate that

Are Progressive/Liberal Blogs Being Margalanized?

Mon, 08 Sep 2008 07:45:59 PDT
By accident, I found out that Trend-Micro, my Internet Security and Virus protection "suite" had reclassified Justanothercoverup and categorized it as a "Malicious Site." This appears to be one of many ways that the government is attempting to stifle free speech, and it's being accomplished behind-the-scenes with few if any people becoming aware

Mon, 08 Sep 2008 18:53:15 PDT
FOR many girls, the idea of becoming a model may never be more than a distant dream. Catherine Bruce was chosen from thousands of young hopefuls to become the face of a teenage perfume. The 16-year-old, from Glassel, near Banchory, sent her picture away in an online competition and did not expect to hear anything back.

BOOKING THROUGH THURSDAY

Mon, 08 Sep 2008 17:30:03 PDT
Suggested by JM: I was looking through books yesterday at the shops and saw all the Twilight books, which I know basically nothing about. What I do know is that I’m beginning to feel like I’m the *only* person who knows nothing about them. Despite being almost broke and trying to save money, I almost bought the expensive book (Australian book prices are often completely nutty) just because I felt the need to be ‘up’ on what everyone else was reading. Have you ever felt pressured to read some

Surge Evaluation

Sat, 28 Jun 2008 12:34:53 PDT
I mostly agree with what Ezra says here, here, and here about David Brooks Surge column. I would diverge slightly in regards to his discussion of the four trends that have led to a decrease in violence; Ezra lists the Sadrist truce, the Awakening strategy, successful ethnic cleansing in Baghdad, and the Surge, but I think it's a little bit more complicated than that. For one, I would divide the Surge itself into tactical and material components, as one element of the Surge was a shift in tactics
