The cricket world cup is being held in the USA this year,

Which is completely stupid - temporary stadiums with dead pitches, crowd of rich indian.diaspora and not even shown on american tv.

So what happens if Netanayu finished his hamas cleanzing, gets kicked of out office and Israel does a mea culpa and changes to a moderate stance

Both usa and china print money with abandon, have lots of dwbt and punish their customers for having the wrong politics.

The main problem isnt how good it is, its how good they think it is and who is controlling the definition of 'bad'

The essay surely does ponder. control however is important to everybody, the big and the small, the powerful and the weak. we live in a time of endless change, where new jobs and technologies arent even lasting a generation, let alone a century, even more so for cultures and sub cultures. folks are ...

And that licensing thing is the stuff is nightmarish but is coming down the pike with any excuse available. Canada is right behind, then the UK and then the pressure will be on the US to get in line with the rest of the world and stop being so backwards and awful. Murdoch: The 200 year old man has ...

Frankly, I am GLAD any popular post button slows down or doesn't work. These are nightmare functions meant for instant gratification and driving traffic is much of the problem with social media. true enough i spose. my original thought was that it was a breakdown in Twitters usefullness - I get pre...
