obama presser in a couple of minutes.
hiiiioooooo!
"Obama can pass health care with Democrats and then legitimately call it bipartisan by citing public support. But he has to not care that David Broder and David Brooks have a hissy fit over it. They do not speak for Americans; they don't even speak for Republicans on this one."

just woke up and saw that us was playing brasil in soccer on espn2. brasil scored within the first six minutes. two minutes later a brasilian player faked getting tripped to draw a foul. makes me so angry. one time someone should just haul off on someone that did that and kick his teeth in. its not like we are going to win anyway. non-cheaters worldwide would heap praise on whoever did it.
the british library puts archive of 19th century newspapers online. seems to be some free access, some for a fee.
The unsecret life of plants

Could be Cinefiles but I’ll follow Dave’s lead and post this as a TV event…
Tivo Alert TCM Wednesday 6/17 6:00AM 1968
Tragi-comic revisoning of the famous debacle as a function of over-invested aristocracy vs. professional soldierly. Probably looks better now than when it came out, with proto-Python animations of 19th century political cartoons and scenery chewing turns by Brit greats like Gielgud and Howard, along with a very young Vanessa Redgrave.
Those who know history are doomed to laugh at it. (and fashion lovers get both Lords Raglan and Cardigan in one flick…)

another 70s road movie on fox movie channel at midnight:

"PETER FONDA drivin' hard!! SUSAN GEORGE ridin' easy!!"

Sick of this media obsession with Iran! The blogs are also full of these stories.
(this place just opened, below is from blackbookmag.com, not sure about this in 2009, "Word on the street says Mari Vanna will be kept secret, with owners handing out keys to approved customers")

Mari Vanna
New York Restaurants » Gramercy » Russian
41 E. 20th Street
(Park Ave. and Broadway)

Selected private openings through July. Russian myth has Mari Vanna as an old woman who took in strangers, cooked elaborate dishes in classic Russian tradition, and served on her finest china. The strangers were eventually given keys and treated like family. Hence this cozy resto. Russian owners took their time perfecting this homey place; interior's filled with pepper grinders, lamps, books, teakettles, and other authentic Russian antiques. Bit on the precious side. Food on a grand scale, heaping portions of flaky chicken Kiev, beef stroganoff, and salade Olivier are not to be missed. Candy dishes abound, just like the ones you couldn't touch at Granny's. Word on the street says Mari Vanna will be kept secret, with owners handing out keys to approved customers.

Francis Hwang's Notes
English language twitterers in Iran
As an experiment, I made a quick Yahoo! Pipe that collects the Twitter accounts listed here. The pipe is here, and it has an RSS feed too. Not sure about how quickly Yahoo! is aggregating these feeds, most likely not any faster than you’d get if you signed up with Twitter and followed all those accounts, but maybe this’ll come in handy if, like me, you’re not much of a Twitter user.
