FBI informer 'met Britons on Afghan jihad'
An FBI informer with al-Qaida links told the Old Bailey yesterday how he met a group of about 15 to 20 young men of Pakistani descent - mostly British and mainly from London and Crawley, West Sussex - in Afghanistan who he said had "come for the jihad".
Mohammed Junaid Babar, 31, who has pleaded guilty in a US court to being part of a British bomb plot, has been flown from the United States to give evidence against seven British men accused of conspiring to carry out a terrorist campaign in the UK. He arrived at court amid heavy security, driven from a police station in an armoured convoy with a helicopter overhead.

This has gone on long enough folks. You have accomplished your goal: ending my position at the Washington Post.
I have never been a quitter. To leave this job is abhorrent to every instinct in my body. But I must put put the interests of the Washington Post first. The Washington Post needs a full-time columnist to provide a truly conservative voice, particularly at this time when the mainstream media is controlled by liberal interest groups.
To continue to fight through the months ahead for my personal vindication would almost totally absorb the time and attention of the newspaper when its entire focus should be on the great issues of peace abroad and security at home.
Thank you.

Oh, this has been a good day!
Red America blog is going down, as res ipsa says in trademarked fashion.
I may be going out on a limb, here, but it seems to me that the real dividing point between the folks on our side of the divide and the enemy is the idea of meritocracy.
We actually believe in it. The other side pays it lipservice, but it's painfully obvious that they pine for the days when the extent of your merit was how well you chose your parents. The poster boy for this is the sociopath cretin who is fucking up the United States as we commiserate here.
The story of Box Turtle boy is the story of cronyism, of opportunities that present themselves not out of any actual work, but strictly on the basis of ideological purity and insider connection.
I don't think I'm reading too much into this, but you'll all slap me silly if you think I am.

But inside, Britney and her mom insisted that she was just a good Baptist girl from Lousiana who just seemed to want stardom so bad her parents let her go for it. They also let it be known that the Britney, from her lavender-bedspreaded bedroom on her constantly-in-motion tour bus, still scribbles down her daily prayers in a diary she calls her "Bible Book."…
When Sabrina the Teenage Witch star Melissa Joan Hart began a much-publicized friendship with Spears, within a month or two Hart shed her goody-goody image and had shown up barely clothed on the cover of the men's magazine Maxim...

The left (us) should give the establishment Democratic party an ultimatum--Catch up with your base or drop dead. Why do we need to prop up the party of Biden, Pelosi and Lieberman?

Update 2: Rice Sees Afghan Resolution for Convert
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice indicated Thursday that Afghanistan will act quickly to head off building U.S. anger over the case of a Muslim-born man on trial for his life for converting to Christianity.
"This is a very deeply concerning development in Afghanistan and we have raised it at the highest levels, and we've raised it in the strongest possible terms," Rice said.
She called Afghan President Hamid Karzai on Thursday, and met a day earlier with the Afghan foreign minister. President Bush also expressed alarm about the case this week.
Rice spoke to reporters following her unusual direct appeal to a foreign leader.
"We look forward, hopefully, to a resolution of this in the very near future," Rice said, without elaborating.

Actually, most of the antibodies are passed on through the collostrum (sp?), in the very first breast feeding.
Seen at Ben Dovermuch's former home, Red State:
I have previously admitted that I cannot follow the whole FISA/Domestic Spying™ kerfuffle without my head exploding...
Jesus, are these pricks still with the "it's all so confusing" bullshit? Talk about lame...
There's not much left of Gentle Ben, is there? Kind of a shame, really. Maybe they'll call him as an expert witness the next time 'intelligent design' goes on trial, or as proof by counterexample...
"BTW, Ben Dovermuch's buddies over at Red State offer a stirring defense of his--

Actually, they did respond to a Kossack who mentioned it. First, they banned him. Second, they came up with this cogent argument:
"I notice from the date of that posting that Ben would have been either 16 or 17 when he wrote those pieces. Maybe you were fluent in APA guidelines for blockquoting and attribution at that age, but I wasn't.
Nonetheless!
I think you may be on to something here.
What we'll do is we'll go back to everything everyone ever wrote from when they were 16 years of age or older. If we find anything that is not properly attributed according to APA/Blue Book/some other professional standard of writing, we disqualify them from holding a job, forever.
Sounds like a plan to me.

It's an interesting adaptation. Imagine a woman who's living with a baby in a time and place where food that's fit for a child is not avalible. This would allow her and the baby a bit more time for things to return to normal without the child dying.

Box Turtle Ben is the ultimate Bush Republican.
Women used to breastfeed longer because they don't ovulate while lactating - or at least, they believed they didn't and it was like birth control. Breast feed until the child is, say, 3, and try to put some years between the babies.

BA unions warn of action over plans to raise retirement age
Unions at British Airways threatened yesterday to ballot their members on industrial action after the airline unveiled proposals to plug the £1.4bn deficit in its pension scheme by raising retirement ages and capping benefits.
BA has offered to inject £500m into its main pension fund to help clear an actuarial deficit which stood at £928m in March 2003 - but only if pilots agree to an increase in their retirement age from 55 to 60, cabin crew accept a rise from 55 to 65, and all staff accept slower accrual rates and the capping of pensionable pay increases at the rate of inflation.
Willie Walsh, BA's chief executive, calculated that the concessions being asked of employees would contribute £450m towards the anticipated increase in the deficit since 2003, allowing the airline to resolve its pension problem "once and for all". He described the package of proposals as "fair" and said he saw no reason why it should provoke industrial action.

I think I'm suffering from CRS.
Breastfeeding past two is recommended when the food supply is not reliably safe, in places such as the third world. (As per the WHO.) But here in the states, kids should be able to safely transition to table food sometime in the second year.
Women used to breastfeed longer because they don't ovulate while lactating - or at least, they believed they didn't and it was like birth control.
I wonder if anybody here knew that?

My understanding is that breast feeding serves as birth control for women who get limited nutrition. Some kind of natural way to prevent a woman from having a baby she literally would not be able to keep alive.

Attempts to break UN impasse on Iran stal
UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - Major powers tried to break a U.N. impasse on Iran's nuclear ambitions with a round of telephone calls among their foreign ministers on Thursday seeking to produce a unified message, diplomats said.
After two weeks of haggling over an initial U.N. Security Council reaction to Iran's suspected nuclear program, Britain, France and the United States were unable to get support from Russia and China, the other two veto-holding Security Council nations, on a draft statement they had proposed.
U.S. Ambassador John Bolton said talks among foreign ministers of the five permanent council members were needed before any decisions could be taken in the 15-member Council.

My 2nd didn't want anything to do with solids until she was 9 months old, at which point we started calling her the Table Shark. I was always grateful to her for the total 18-month break.

I loved breast feeding. Even had orgasms from it.
Audrey was what they called, back then, at least, a "baracuda." She'd suck suck suck and fall asleep. Wake up suck suck suck and fall asleep. In other words, she was perpetually at my breast.
I loved the whole experience....
NYMary--I have to hand it to you; I was so sick of breastfeeding at 4 1/2 months I gave it up.
I'll never get sick of breastfeeding, although I've had to cut back on the lactose part of it.

Mental health legislation toned down but doubts persist
The government yesterday bowed to eight years of campaigning by social care charities and psychiatrists and abandoned its planned mental health legislation, but then sparked anxiety by pressing ahead with two of its most controversial elements.
The health minister Rosie Winterton said that instead of a wide-ranging, lengthy and complex draft mental health bill, the new measures would be introduced by amending existing mental health laws but with extra safeguards. The attempt to overhaul the laws was triggered by the conviction of Michael Stone, who was given three life sentences for the murders of Lin Russell and her daughter Megan as they walked down a country lane in Kent in 1996. Stone had a severe personality disorder but could not be held under mental health powers because he was regarded as untreatable.

While we're breastfeeding: This is another thing that totally pisses me off about the right-to-lifers. TRY figuring out your contraception while you're nursing. You basically have to switch to barrier methods, all of which have higher failure rates, unless you've decided your family is finished and you tie your tubes.

A woman that my wife once worked with was one of those 'Le Leche'(sp?) League hyper natural woman types who had four or five kids before she was thirty. We both watched her with her most recent kid at a company picnic. The little tyke was running around playing and then apparantly got a bit pekkish and went over to momma who was sitting at a picnic table busily talking to someone. The little fellow tried hard to get her attention and then started to unbutton her blouse. (Didn't phase her in the least.)
I just have to get in a comment about 16- or 17-year olds not knowing APA standards. I did not know APA standards at that age, but I did know MLA standards. Real schools require term papers with references and everything.

Afghan Judge Rejects Pleas for Christian Convert
Man Faces Death Penalty for Converting From Islam
By Sayed Salahuddin, Reuters
KABUL, Afghanistan (March 23) - Afghanistan's judiciary will not bow to outside pressure over the fate of a man who faces the death penalty for converting to Christianity, a judge dealing with the case said on Thursday.
''Afghanistan is an Islamic country and its judiciary will act independently and neutrally,'' Supreme Court judge Ansarullah Mawlavizada told Reuters.
''No other policy will be accepted apart from Islamic orders and what our constitution says,'' Mawlavizada said, adding he was saddened by the international outcry.

Teenager gets four years for rape of children
A teenage boy has been given four years' youth detention after pleading guilty to raping four girls aged between seven and 10.
The boy, aged 14 at the time of the offences, was sentenced at Manchester crown court yesterday.
The victims were playing in Mandley park, Salford, in July last year when they were approached by the teenager, who cannot be named for legal reasons. He led the girls into a secluded area and suggested they play a game of dare.
Jr has admitted to being my friend.
As his fever challenged the mercury in his rectal thermometer, Lord Terwilliger continued to swab his toes with the yellow ochre left over from his stint as a painter of carnival canvas while crying out with a bleat of terror in his voice, "Helmut, the onions! Mach Schnell!"
The dachshund leapt bravely into the fray, driving the massive beast into the corner with his unexpectedly ferocious onslaught, while Smithers brought the Daimler around, a handful of Lucas electrics in his bloodstained hands and a look of rapturous contentment on his honest workingman's face...

Breastfeeding.
Mummy managed to produce Bunny-Bunny, after 48 hours of hard, nun-harassing labor, and the first boy baby of the cadre. As a result, she was given something along the lines of 40lbs of serious, hardcore chocolates, boxes and boxes and boxes. She ate a great deal of this.
With the second baby, the loot diminished, but was still lavish.
With the third, more than adequate.

You've led too sheltered a life my dear. My first memories are of self-pleasuring in a crib.
NYMary--I think part of it is that I'm an extremely territorial person. Anyone who sits in MY chair is told, 'Get the hell out of my chair,' and they soon learn I'm not kidding.
I'm the same way with my chair at the dinner table, my side of the bed (I always get the left, no matter where we are), and my place under the Christmas tree (always on the right).
I can only tolerate a limited amount of physical contact as well. I'm easily overstimulated and after a while, it's upsetting.

"Does anyone honestly believe that Doris Kearns Goodwin's tactic of preempting damaging plagiarism revelations by admitting to it beforehand will actually work?
True, the fact that Simon & Schuster is actually destroying its inventory of paperback copies of the book in question shows that they're quite resolute in their belief that such outrageous plagiaristic activity should be covered up as soon as possible.
...
It also seems more than a little naive to think that a massive book-burning will allow Goodwin to escape significant excoriation by historical academics, many of whom already view her as an attention-grabbing interloper. As Homer likes to say, 'Marge, it takes two to lie. One to lie and one to listen.'"

Sorority girls who will take off their clothes at the drop of a hat?
I don't know if this is true,
but I heard from an old OB/Gyn doc that the first erection happened shortly right after birth.
Well, Vicki, you only had a girl. Boys, as Thers notes, get pointy all the time.
It's also a lot more interesting when they pee while getting changed. They go for distance, height, and accuracy.

Wasn't it kinda uncomfortable in that crib when you were 13?

As his fever challenged the mercury in his rectal thermometer, Lord Terwilliger continued to swab his toes with the yellow ochre left over from his stint as a painter of carnival canvas while crying out with a bleat of terror in his voice, "Helmut, the onions! Mach Schnell!"
The dachshund leapt bravely into the fray, driving the massive beast into the corner with his unexpectedly ferocious onslaught, while Smithers brought the Daimler around, a handful of Lucas electrics in his bloodstained hands and a look of rapturous contentment on his honest workingman's face...
Meanwhile, Aubrey was in the garden, That garden with so many memories. Old Major Hegsworth and his nauseating trouser coughs. Aubrey thought if him whenever she passed a sewage treatment plant or watched a Jerry Lewis movie.
And then there was Wallace. He left for Moldavia after the Moulton bicycle incident. The less we speak of him, the better.
Wallace, ever rakish in his thick burlap whipple cap, never understood how Elsworth saw through the scheme hatched by he and the brittle, bratty harridan known as Auntie Phillip. Lisping through his recently broken teeth, Wallace whispered to his Moldavian conjoined twin manservant, Bosco, "the check bounced, the chocolate truffle melted, and I can't get the clothes on the line to dry."

No, actually. No sororities ever, and frats had been banned just a few years before I got there.

"The strong Western response to a threatened death sentence for an Afghan convert to Christianity looks something like a mirror image of the Muslim reaction to the Prophet Mohammad caricatures printed in the European press," Reuters "reports" from Rome:
There have been no riots or sackings of Afghan embassies, unlike the violence that marked the uproar in Muslim countries after the Danish cartoons were published, but the shock and mutual incomprehension expressed in both cases are similar.
Actually, the two incidents look more like photographic images than mirror ones. In both cases it is Muslims who are employing or threatening violence against those who reject their religion.

Phhft. When I was 16 and 17, I was well aware of what plagiarism was...and pulling 90s in English class. Then again, I went to a really excellent public school. OTOH, if I'd been homeschooled, my mom would have taught me such things, because unlike most people who homeschool, my mother was actually a teacher, with a teaching certificate and everything, not just some kind of sissy-ass "following the curriculum" nod of approval. I just can't tell you how disgusted this all makes me.

RedState thinks they were youthful indiscretions (seriously).
Conservatives will never succeed in distancing their failed ideology from Bush. His biography blends all the threads of modern conservatism that is really a marriage of corporate interests and theocracy. He’s a mediocre man born into wealth, who never had to prove himself in a meritocracy and found religion. Through the network of his family name Bush became President and launched a war that appealed to corporatists and theocrats alike. How much more conservative can one be?
Conservatives like to portray their ideology as a celebration of self-made men with optimism. In reality though, the poster boy for conservatism is not Ronald Reagan. It’s George W. Bush – a man with wealth he didn’t earn honestly who believes the apocalypse is just around the corner.

The Post's New Blogger Calls Coretta Scott King a Communist - On the Day of Her Funeral
I spoke on these pages yesterday lamenting the Washington Post's decision to hire a blogger from RedState.org for its featured blog, Red America. I am further perplexed to learn that this blogger, Ben Domenech, in addition to possessing few journalistic credentials, has exhibited a practice for right wing, inflammatory rhetoric that should in no case pass for journalism.
I was further dismayed to learn that, on the passing of Coretta Scott King, one of our nation's most revered civil rights leaders, Domenech showed his respects by calling her a communist. He has since called Democrats the Party of Death.
That the Washington Post has felt the need to hire someone who places bombast ahead of journalistic integrity shows what kind of commitment the paper has to honest journalism and where it sees its future.
etc.

in the 90s -- forget where, maybe
Rolling Stone, maybe the Village Voice --
who said "If only when I was a teenager
I had known that Bob Mould was gay
it would have made my life more
bearable" (or words to that effect).
On the one hand, you have to have some
empathy with the poor guy. On the
other, how pathetic. Jeesus -- if
your whole self-image is based on
the pop icon du jour, you should have
it looked at....
"Velvet Goldmine" mostly struck me
as a similar riff. If you know what
I mean.

New Poll Shows Morrison Beating Burns
More big news from big sky! On the heels of a barnstorming tour around Montana to share his priorities on health care, national security and energy independence, a new Rasmussen Reports poll shows John Morrison as the man to beat in Montana.
The Rasmussen Reports poll, conducted March 14, 2006, shows Morrison with a 5 point lead over embattled incumbent Conrad Burns...a spread that falls outside the poll's margin of error. As the Helena Independent Record headline screamed this morning: "Poll: Burns Struggling in Race." It is the second monthly Rasmussen poll showing Morrison leading Burns by more than the margin of error. Showing again that John Morrison runs stronger against Burns than any other Democrat; and coming after extensive TV and radio advertising by Burns.

Speaking of blueberries, someone has discovered one way to grow huckleberries. People have tried to grow them for years, but have had no sucess.
The people who announced that they could grow them said you need bears. The huckleberry seeds have to go through a bears digestive track, to grow. So if you go into nothern Rocky Mountain woods pick up bear shit, and plant it some huckleberries will grow.
BTW, the one place you have a very good chance of finding bears in those woods is where the berries are growing well.

The good and bad thing about tick is that they sometimes crawl on you for hours, (sometimes not) and after you've showered and changed clothes, you find them still crawling on your person.
Have you seen the pic of steve with Patti Smith? It's my fav.
And for those who haven't...!
We don't have to eat out. We can have picnics.

Annie's a tick?
CNNsi.com and espn.com are plagiarizing eachother. Both say "No. 1 and Done!"
Thers, you *did* see this, right?
No, I've never seen that. Indedd, I can probably never not see that enough.
What's 4am? I've never heard of that.

I'll bring it up too, next time I see you both together here. It's really a fantastic photo. Historical, even.
Why? Cause they were all smacked out in those days?
No, 'cause they all looked like shit!

I have a ten-foot pole, but I don't use it as a rule.

Doug,
That's true, I spent a day doing yard work (clearing brush, in fact - some of us have to do it for real, unlike Chimpy) and I had showered, changed, dressed, eaten, and gone to bed before I discovered the tick embedded in the back of my neck. Little motherfucker.
Why bluecrop and highbush?
spinozapeep
recomended for this area. MO has a fruit experimental station in town, get all kinds of info. from them. Highbush grow to 5-6 ft. tall.
I posted that Steve and Patti link above, btw...

The only time I ever missed school due to illness (elementary, HS, college) was in the third grade when a tick got into my ear and gave me some kind of infection. Very not-cool.
Oh, I hope this post is 666th!

Good.

Patti Smith looks downright pretty in that photo.
Eli -- you missed school *once* all the way thru college?
That's downright unamerican....

It was taken at a party in 1976.
I have no idea who shot it. Or who
posted it on the web or why.
BTW: the button I'm holding says
"Back to Mono." It was a promo
trinket from the
just released reissue of the
Phil Spector Christmas Album.
NO MORE TICK TALK!
(please?)

So does the guy on the right.
steve -- I was trying to read what that button said.....
ticks, just like everyone else, are just trying to survive.
I planted "Darrow", "Misty" and "Toro" blueberries. I have 100 feet of Tayberries and put in 90 feet of blues today.
Darrow are the size of quarters.
NO MORE TICK TALK!
Isn't that what Cap'm Hook asked?
Good pun, by the way!
There is a really good chance of being post # 666. Good day, eh?
More Port security shenanigans from bushco:
In any case, now the AP is reporting that the Bush administration is subcontracting a key aspect of port security to Hutchison. And when I say 'key' I mean key. They're going to be the ones scanning in-bound cargo for signs of illicit nuclear materials. They're in charge of it -- no oversight or supervision by US Customs.

erm, evening, everyone. did you all see this?
Today, Sibel Edmonds, Former FBI Language Specialist and a whistleblower, filed a motion in D.C. Federal Court asking for recusal of Judge Reggie Walton from her pending case filed under the Federal Tort Claim Act. Walton is also currently hearing the perjury case involving I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby, the former chief of staff to Vice President Dick Cheney, who is suspected of leaking the name of former CIA undercover operative Valerie Plame Wilson to the media.

It really is the first of two films, with 2046 the sequel. You can't really appreciate the later having not seen the former. -Al Swearengen

So, Steve, where is the beret?
Eli -- you missed school *once* all the way thru college?
I think I missed a day in 7th or 8th grade to be in that SNL fake commercial (it was class picture day, too), and I certainly skipped a bunch of classes in college, but never for sick.
I've only officially missed one day of work in 14+ years, and that was due to oversleeping, which is a little more consequential when you work night shift and rely on public transit.
I've been sick enough to miss work a few times, but it's always been on a weekend or when I was unemployed. I'm very... hardy.
The only time I ever missed school due to illness (elementary, HS, college) was in the third grade when a tick got into my ear and gave me some kind of infection. Very not-cool.
The same thing happened to me. Khan put some sort of space-slug in my ear and I inadvertently helped sell out the Enterprise. Lost a whole week of junior high school, too.

"We are a small country and we welcome the help the outside world is giving us. But please don't interfere in this issue," Nasri said. "We are Muslims and these are our beliefs. This is much more important to us than all the aid the world has given us."
This Nasri character is a motherfucker who should be humanely killed as soon as possible by one of his countrymen.
All things considered, however, I have more respect for a fundie who has the nuts to speak frankly about The Way Things Are than the jackass fundies we have here who are either stupid as stones or lying assholes.
Nasri knows that he's a motherfucker and isn't interested in pretending otherwise.
American fundies are happy to lie to achieve their goals (which are identical to Nasri's). If American fundies were honest, they would be urging the US to respect Nasri's religious beliefs.

BTW --
A funny story about that picture.
Southside Johnny, who I also was
a huge fan of,
was at the same party that shot
was taken at.
When Patti walked in, Johnny yelled
at the top of his lungs "She tries
too hard!!!!!!"

He won't get fired. He'll resign.
And remember my prediction: before his melon splatters on the ground, he'll say a li'l prayer and make sure we all hear it.
Mark my words.

Mood is my favorite of the two. 2046 is the embittered result, but so much of it is tied to things that happen in Mood, it's hard to conceptualize 2046 without it.

My first comment when this story broke was what was the over/under on Ben. I said less than a month.
In hindsight, I will now say middle next week, or ten days.
He won't get fired. He'll resign.
to spend more time with his crunchy con family...
The owl ticks.

That's what vacations and weekends are for. Plus I get five weeks a year, which is pretty good for a corporate drone.

I think it was a lynx or a bobcat. It looked like it had a stubby tail.

Red America blogger, Ben Domenech, vanished today following a weekend trip to Aruba.
Here's the picture of Mick, David, and Lou I was talking about earlier.

I only missed school for pneumonia.
I used to get walking pneumonia every Februray for years. Just like clockwork.
