Keller uncensored sort of

an article on yahoo news just stated that the new york times is joining the ranks of newspapers putting up a paywall in order to survive. a disgruntled former journalist complained about getting the next days news for free at 1130 pm on the web and having to pay for a more pathetic print edition which arrives hours later. i thought it was interesting that the king of newspapers, the grey lady is finally giving in.
will print go out of fashion completely? will that change what a newspaper is?
i was just reading an article in vanity fair about how people are getting fed up with Piers Morgan and want to "return" him. maybe newspapers will survive because people are sick of television.
hold on to your papers a little longer.... maybe the light at the end of the tunnel is brighter than it seemed

UN

I was just reading an article on the WSJ website, about how food prices have risen 2.2% in February from January prices. the UN thinks it's a problem, they don't have a solution, but they think this is a problem. doesn't that seem the case with everything at the UN? what is it that they do? besides hold conferences, bash Israel, and get American money and troops invested in bad situations?
why do we need the UN again?
i think it's time the nations of the world realized that this organization is a crock.
do they really expect Muammar Gaddafi, a certifiable mad-man and murderer- to show up at the Hague on SUSPICIONS of war crimes?
i think its time nations of the world either got real and got rid of the UN, or the organization grew a back bone and actually did good.
i vote the former. an organization that is so blind that they elected M. Achmadinejad to their womens rights council is a bad organization.
thoughts?

again on Lybia

I was reading an article on  Reuters.com where Qadaffi was claiming that his country loves him, and the youth are confused- they love him too, but lately they've accidentally been drinking "spiked coffee". I thought it was a very funny article. It reminded me of a book review that Rabbi Dr. Chaim Soloveitchik wrote on Peter Haas's book "responsa: the literary history of a rabbinic genre". Rabbi Dr Soloveitchik claims that Haas invented biblical crack wine. his critique is hysterical; he tears haas to shreds. i think its about time someone did the same to Qaddafi. good thing the president broke his silence! now maybe he'll speak up?!.....maybe

qaddafi

The New York Yimes reporting on the rebellion in Libya recorded Muammar Qaddafi as saying "Muammar Qadaffi  is history, resistance, liberty, glory, revolution" though the medias intention was not to laugh at this mad man - I think they have made it quite possible to show the instability and ego mania of the Libyan leader. although I am afraid of change and new regimes in countries like Egypt I do think it is important for evil and crazy leaders to be replaced. Qaddafi has ordered military bases blown up and is pro massacring all protesters. his son has promised rivers of blood. i think the media is doing a good job showing the people of Lybia and the world what a crazy mad Qaddafi is and how he must be stopped. maybe, hopefully Qaddafi is right- he is history.
