The Doctor is in:
14 Apr 2008,12:00 am If it weren't for Howard Dean, I'd still be on the sidelines of American politics: Interested, but not involved. Dean's grassroots organizing, and his call to civic duty, galvanized millions of people around the world — myself included — and his pull-no-punches presidential campaign changed the tone of the Democratic Party. I always thought the Democrats of 2000-2003 were bringing an olive branch to a knife fight: Offering the hand of bipartisanship to an uncompromising opponent who...

couple quick quotes
7 Apr 2008,8:04 am “I think [defining BSD as ‘free because it has no restrictions’ and GPL as ‘not free because it has restrictions’] confuses freedom with anarchy.” – James Vasile . As concise and correct a refutation of this position as I’ve seen. Obama on patriotism: I love this country not because it’s perfect, but because we’ve always been able to move it closer to perfection. Because through revolution and slavery; war and depression; great battles for civ...

1 Apr 2008,9:45 am It's no secret that the world has decided to hate Microsoft at the journalistic and regulatory levels.

Face it, there's no company that screams Capitalist Americans more than Microsoft, and for better or for worse, that's exactly why they

Special K Revisited
2 Jan 2008,9:40 pmSpecial K is a cereal. Now, maybe I eat Special K because I like it, maybe it's because I believe it to be good for me, maybe it's because I just want to look like the people on the box . Who knows? One thing I do know is this - if I go to the United States and buy Special K, it doesn't look like the Special K that I buy in Canada. Why is that? What are "they" up to? Look! They both say "Original"! Look at them! One is flat like Corn Flakes and the other doesn't look like Corn Flakes at all! One...

11 Aug 2004,12:54 am Haaretz reports that the US Administration is checking the possibility of pumping oil from the Iraq's Kirkurk area to Mosul and then to a Haifa oil terminal, via Jordan. The Americans requested a cost estimate of repairing the old Mosul-Haifa pipeline , inactive since the end of the British mandate in Palestine in 1948. I presume this idea wanted to avoid the old Syrian track on the Golan via a bypass through Jordan... Of course, if you consider the US government's growing anti-Syrian stance, o...
