Wine: Natural isn't perfect
By Dave McIntyre
Wednesday, April 14, 2010
Wine is not immune to political correctness or polemics. (Readers who merely desire a simple glass of fermented grape juice to enjoy with dinner might want to turn to the editorial page now.) The latest battlefront in wine is whether that juice you're drinking is "natural.
The natural-wine movement has been sweeping France for a few years now, with stylishly dressed millennials in trendy wine bars in affluent urban neighborhoods celebrating the peasant vignerons who defy globalization in defense of terroir.

Had a long conversation with a former co-worker who has turned conservative. Stayed away from politics, but at some point he started ranting about socialists. I told him that by current standards Nixon and Reagan would be considered socialists. I may have been pushing the envelope with Reagan, but certainly he espoused policies that would be anathema to the Tea Baggers: cut-and-run in the face of Arab insurgents, reduce nuclear weapons, etc. In any case, we didn't get to the fine points, as the response was spittle-flecked screaming.

Delusional Downtown Divas. Created by Lena Dunham, Carroll Dunham and Laurie Simmon's daughter and artist in her own right, a filmmaker and writer. You need to watch a few to get the real idea. Pretty funny IMHO.

I just realized the search term (in quotes) "haploid zombie" doesn't return very many hits. Good name for a punk band.
These kinds of studies are sorely needed, and fast, because as of right now, about 85 percent of the corn grown in the US is genetically engineered to either produce an insecticide, or to survive the application of herbicide. And about 91-93 percent of all soybeans are genetically engineered to survive massive doses of Roundup herbicide.

London Lennie’s opened roughly 50 years ago in Queens as a four-seat fish ’n’ chips shop. Since then, it’s become a full-fledged fin house, and to celebrate its half-century in existence, on April 13 from 3–6 PM (otherwise known as the freelancer’s happy hour), it’s offering $1.50 fish ’n’ chips at the bar (718-894-8084).

Yeah, but only "in retrospect". All those premature anti-invasionists are still dirty, fucking hippies.
