The Italian league explained - European Basketball... →
Though this ranking will probably be jumbled in eight months, let’s take a look at the teams in the Italian league. A preliminary remark: this season will see one of the most balanced championships of the past five years, with almost every team improving its situation and not merely to beat the invincible Montepaschi. Serie A is still alive and is breathing new air.
Pandora: CONGRESSIONAL EMERGENCY!!! →
“Listeners we need your help… NOW!
After a yearlong negotiation, Pandora, artists and record companies are finally optimistic about reaching an agreement on royalties that would save Pandora and Internet radio. But just as we’ve gotten close, large traditional broadcast radio companies have launched a covert lobbying campaign to sabotage our progress.
Yesterday, Congressman Jay...

brianconley:
which actually means leave Iraq to a corrupt Iraqi govt similar to that of joe biden’s friend mikhail sakashvilli in the corrupt Georgian “republic”
McCain is better friends with Sakashvilli.
And what’s Sakashvilli ever done to you? He cleaned up Georgia.

Al-Hajj survived Guantánamo, although he wrote his son a farewell letter from the prison camp and says he nearly went insane. Like almost all of the approximately 770 detainees who have been held there, Al-Hajj — the only journalist known to have been detained at Guantánamo — never had the opportunity to answer charges against him in any legal proceeding. With no explanation, U.S. military...
Robert Reich - What Wall Street Should Do To Get... →
The public doesn’t like a blank check. They think this whole bailout idea is nuts. They see fat cats on Wall Street who have raked in zillions for years, now extorting in effect $2,000 to $5,000 from every American family to make up for their own nonfeasance, malfeasance, greed, and just plain stupidity. Wall Street’s request for a blank check comes at the same time most of the public...
Paulson's Folly | The American Prospect →
The differences between this proposed bailout and the three closest historical equivalents are immense. When the Reconstruction Finance Corporation of the 1930s pumped a total of $35 billion into U.S. corporations and financial institutions, there was close government supervision and quid pro quos at every step of the way. Much of the time, the RFC became a preferred shareholder, and often...

Cats are(n't) the fossil fuel that powers the...
yatta: quick question.
Brad O'Farrell: yessir
yatta: watching cat videos on YT.
yatta: thinking about cat macros.
yatta: how many hits were generated just by turning a video camera on a cat for 90 seconds.
yatta: everyone thinks it's funny.
yatta: everyone thinks it'll always be funny.
yatta: but one day, they'll get tired of it.
yatta: it will hit it's peak.
yatta: and cats will not be such a large generator of web traffic anymore.
yatta: so here's my theory/question... Are cats the fossil fuel of the internet?
Brad O'Farrell: You're doing it wrong. Cats are uranium of the Internet. Cats will never stop being funny because they are inherently funny, however, they leave biohazards (cat ladies) in their wake
yatta: i couldn't have asked for a better response.

“The irony, of course, is that, in pre-Goldwater days, conservatives were incredibly sophisticated about the value of networks, institutions and invisible social bonds. You don’t have to go back to Edmund Burke and Adam Smith (though it helps) to find conservatives who understood that people are socially embedded creatures and that government has a role (though not a dominant one) in...

One of the side features on our new website is Super Long Play. We publish largely unedited chunks of obscure VHS we’ve found at garage sales and thrift stores once a month. Future months will be shorter, but this video is pretty good so we let it run.
Super Long Play is clearly the most fantastic new feature of the new Wreck and Salvage.
