  shadowplay — Authority: 131
  FRENZY represents at least three things –1) A return from the flaccidity of TORN CURTAIN and TOPAZ to a more taut, controlled, satisfying thriller story.2) A return to England for migrant Hitch, an England he found painfully changed in some ways, but whose progress he could eradicate in the film he was making, ...

• Copenhagen - Day 11

  
  Politics — Authority: 424
  Day 11 of the conference here in Copenhagen and early this morning it seemed that the 193 countries were as close to a deal as they had been on Day 1. In one sense, when you think about it, the ambition of this conference is audacity itself. (more…) Share This

• Falling short

  
  Wrap Around Curl — Authority: 420
  I survived Muse. I trailed into town last night and got into the arena just in time to see the Chiefs play the Winterhawks. And, it’s a sad state of affairs when I can walk into the arena at 7 pm and they still have tons of player magnets to hand out (Blake Gal!). Anyway, the boys looked a bit sluggish against ...

• Competition at Team Canada Camp

  
  Coming Down the Pipe! — Authority: 468
  ~ With just 6 returning players, Hockey Canada will have plenty of tough decisions to make as to which players will wear the Maple Leaf and attempt to take home an unprecedented 6th consecutive gold medal. Hockey Canada has invited 36 players to Regina and all have a legitimate chance at claiming a spot on the ...

• We shall be victorious.

  
  Wrap Around Curl — Authority: 420
  If the Chiefs win in front of an ever shrinking crowd does it still count? Last night the arena couldn’t even pull in four thousand people for a Tuesday game. But perhaps my expectations are too high. In the plus column is the fact that the organization HAS to be snooping in blogs for ideas because I refuse to ...

• Another Reminder

  
  tomgpalmer.com — Authority: 469
  The discussion with Tyler Cowen reminded me again that we had disagreed (agreeably) on a number of things in an online discussion of Libertarianism: Past and Prospects , which was kicked off by Brian Doherty, author of the really fine book Radicals for Capitalism: A Freewheeling History of the Modern American ...

• The Sunday Catch Up

  
  Wrap Around Curl — Authority: 420
  Oh how very far behind I am. The Chiefs won Friday and I am writing about it now. Really the first and second period they played rather slow. But the third period the team snapped out of it because they didn’t want the game to go into overtime. Jame Reid continues to stand on his head and be quite excellent in net. ...

  Politics — Authority: 424
  The Taoiseach’s annual Cairde Fáil dinner of party supporters last night at Citywest was a low-key affair. Any journalists hoping for a row were disappointed. Brian Cowen’s speech was in the “Workmanlike” category: we shall soldier on, pay talks or no pay talks. (more…) Share This

• Blogging under pen name

  
  Morrgan Reborn — Authority: 120
  The last country I started a blog in was a military dictatorship in the developing world. I blogged using my real name and all was peachy keen for a while. Gradually my posts became more political than social and I knew that I was being monitored by the government - I worked in human rights so we knew we were targets ...

• I write letters

  
  Morrgan Reborn — Authority: 120
  Dear Taoiseach, That you are a coward and a liar does not surprise me. That you are unable to do what is necessary to fix the economy does not surprise me. That you were too drunk on your latest visit to China to attend two press conferences does not surprise me. On the other hand, that you kowtow to pedophiles, ...

  Cato @ Liberty — Authority: 751
  On Tuesday I hosted a Book Forum for Tom Palmer’s new book, Realizing Freedom: Libertarian Theory, History, and Practice . You can see the video here .
