Reader Tips

Posting here is about to slow down considerably. I leave tomorrow for North Carolina to give a seminar, followed by a week of dog shows. While I will have computer access, time to write will be limited. If I can get the page loading restored, I may ask a couple of friends to guest, but as it is, I’m reluctant to post much anyway, as there is a risk that I’ve been corrupting data. In the meanwhile, a few of the tips passed along in the past couple of days. I confess I haven’t had time to check them all out.
World Tribune is reporting secret video of public executions in North Korea is about to be released.
I haven’t seen this, but I trust the source, who says its a “rather thought provoking look at the possible future of media.” Takes about 10 minutes to view, so I imagine its a hefty download. Page is here.
Toronto Sun editorial on grow ops.
Gomery is getting to the meat of the matter. Sponsorship contract recipients were expected to funnel cash back to the Liberals! Who knew?
There’s been a lot of buzz lately about the lack of women in op-ed pages, and the blogosphere, where there has been considerable whining that “the boys won’t link to the girls”. As I head towards my 300,000 visits and over 400 incoming links (or so Technorati says) in just over a year, all I can offer is this one word observation – bullshit.
And over at the Shotgun, Kevin Steele discovers a familiar figure pops up in – of all places – the investigation of the 1985 Air India bombing, in a post titled Who Erased The Tapes?.

  1. Ta ta, toots.NC is loverly this time of year, with soft, warm air, and blooming daffodils.Don’t buy any firecrackers!

  2. When I was a kid I used to buy the BEST fireworks in Gananoque, Ontario. Is that all illegal now?
    NC is a great state, but I prefer Virginia (away from Richmond & DC area) a bit more. Take in Monticello if you get the chance.

  3. I discovered blogs a month ago and SDA is one of only five or six that I “favourites”. Keep up the good work Kate. (I lived in Sask. for 20 years and now BC. Are the SDA’s Sask. roadkill? And what do you feed your dogs? Don’t tell me. . .)

  4. Hi Jack – the dogs eat Purina…. and the SDA are .22 varmint rifle “kill”…
    You guys behave while I’m gone, and don’t be too hard on Joe.

  5. Too bad I didnt know your exact location in North Carolina, if it was any where close to Charlotte I could attend the dog show and come and say hello.
