food for fish: I read Genesis 6-7 and Luke 3:1-22 and although at a glance they may seem to be completely unrelated, Noah’s flood and the intro to John the Baptist, the common thread is one of justice and love. The flood was about God having favor with Noah as the only human, at the time, to have a righteous and blameless life. (via Cosmos)

Simon: Mystery Novelist and Screenwriter: He is not the CinC, however, trying to destroy morale, surrender, cut off funds for the military, undercut the man who actually got the job fair and sqaure in an election while at the same time signalling defeat to the enemy and senility to the world...seems to be the best Ted Kennedy can do at this point in his career.

Instead, they deliberately foist a $400 device that’s utterly worthless upon their customer base.

Bloggersblog.comhttp://www.bloggersblog.com [Bloggersblog.com] Bloggers Blog -- Journalism and Media: There are already some very good blogs from the mainstream media but it sounds like Jack Shafer is saying that the newspaper websites and blogs will have to be superior to what's offered by bloggers for them to be able to survive and/or excel. Shafer also makes a dig at TimesSelect: "I also want more for my Times subscription than TimesSelect and its stingy 100 'free' searches a month from the archives, its News Tracker, and the paper's columnists." Shafer must be forgetting about the exciting new blog the New York Times just added to TimesSelect.

[Duntemann.com] Jeff Duntemann's ContraPositive Diary: This is doubly peculiar because LiveJournal does have a standard vocabulary for tagging moods. You pull down the mood tag list, and declare that you're pleased or annoyed or thoughtful, and if you happen to be feeling phlegmatic or irenic or hysterical that particular day (these are not on the list, heh) you simply type them into the adjacent edit field.

[Newmediamusings.com] New Media Musings: Web/Tech Archives: Nisenholtz suggested that, while there was clearly a place for opinion blogs and fact-based blogs, the vast majority of blogs are "rich with opinion" and thus can't be "fully vetted all the time on the fact level." If the Times were to allow a blogger to cover a government meeting and express her own views, it would be opening itself up to all kinds of potential problems. She could have an agenda, or dislike someone on the school board, and how would they know?
