Normally, here in Georgia, I get to deal with Right-Wing Theo-Conservative wackiness, though there is a fair amount of Left-Wing nonsense too within the Ivory Towers of the University of Georgia. But what did I find while waiting for a bus on my way to Tyche's but an issue of the Ashville Global Report from Nov '05 but recently left.

"News from the Front Lines" it promised, which front lines it was not so clear about. The AGR is one of those Neo-Socialist, Green-to-a-fault, anti-Capitalist newspapers that seem to proliferate in college towns (it seemed that Eugene and Portland, OR, had dozens of them) so it was like stepping back into the past for me. I could comment on the contradictions within, but if you have read these sort of papers before, you already know them, and if you have not, it would be equally boring. Let just say it gave me a few minute of interested and amused reading.

A very random selection of things that have caught my eye today:

An article on the girl who named a planet.

Reflections on Paddington Bear by the author, Michael Bond.

A nifty page on the Guillotine with flash animation and plans so that you can make your own.
