  This article originally appeared on Feminist Peace Network .

  This is kind of a silly challenge, but I can’t get it out of my head so I’m going ahead and announcing it. I’m not sure if anyone else will want to participate because it’s kind of loosey goosey, but if you do want to participate, I’d love to have you! This challenge started in my head because I was ...

• Saint Gore and Gods Gardeners: Greens Get Their Bible

  
  NewsBusters.org - Exposing Liberal Media Bias — Authority: 808
  Lefty author Margaret Atwood has created, in the form of a novel, the environmentalists bible. "The Year of the Flood", as it is titled, is not merely a figurative bible for a dispersed and sporadic collection of greenies, but rather a sacred testament (the author says as much) for a movement that, every day, looks ...

• Video: Suite For Ma Dukes x “Take Notice”

  
  The Smoking Section — Authority: 629
  I remember when one of the initial Suite For Ma Dukes events first went down, there was bootleg footage being passed around and I asked J. Kim about if we should post it, seeing as how I thought it was relevant to getting the word out about the whole project. He asked me to wait and that their was something better ...

• A Monkey Book Report

  
  Monkey Muck — Authority: 442
  This book is more the corollary to Ms. Atwoods previous book Oryx and Crake than it is the sequel . The action in The Year of the Flood takes place simultaneously to that of Oryx and Crake , so thats why I say that. This novel like, its predecessor, is a bleak vision of a world gone mad and then made barren by ...

  hazel8500 — Authority: 137
  Was in the laundry today and was gobsmacked by the quality of our ever growing book exchange.  I took three whole books away seeing as I’m already reading two other books at the moment I feel a little greedy.  Good thing is there are actual doubles down there so I don’t feel like I’m depriving [...]

• The Green Religion

  
  Fausta's Blog — Authority: 142
  Via Ed Driscoll , Is Environmentalism a Religion? Novelist Michael Crichton said that environmentalism had all the trappings of a religion: “Eden, the fall of man, the loss of grace, the coming doomsday.” Atwood is filling it out with saints and hymns.

  In Contention — Authority: 147
  On the technical side of things, is anyone as uninspired as I am by the apparent frontrunners for Best Costume Design? I bow to no one in my admiration for the genius of Sandy Powell, but the Easter egg-colored wardrobe of “The Young Victoria” is routine work by her high standards. That hasn’t stopped most ...

  oh honey, we're ridiculous. — Authority: 139
  As any bank robber can tell you, the best thing to do when running away is not to run. Just walk. Just stroll. A combination of ease and purposefulness is desirable. Then no one will notice you’re running. In addition to which, don’t carry heavy suitcases, or canvas bags full of money, or packsacks with body ...
