WatchHigh Definition youtube video version
It might be an freakin’ amazing video featuring trials biker Danny MacAskill and two insane front flips from a stationary position in natural positions.
But another fantastic highlight is the music in the second half of the video is from The Jezabels. ♥♫♥

WatchReblog: Scahill on Holbrooke
Strong show on Democracy Now today. Highlight was last two minutes, with Jeremy Scahill giving this excellent summary of Holbrooke and Yugoslavia: Richard Holbrooke was a central player in the disintegration of Yugoslavia in the 1990s. Everyone knows. The whole world knows. Slobodan Miloševic was a mass murderer and a thug. Radovan Karadžic, Ratko Mladic, all of...

Reblog: How Holbrooke Lied His Way into a War
A piece I wrote December 9, 2008, while Holbrooke was being considered for the position he held in the Obama administration. To try to empathize with Holbrooke, I thought I was trying to save lives by writing this piece; I didn’t know they might include his, as war makers seem to have a tendency to faint or blow a socket: Despite being passed over for Secretary of State, Richard Holbrooke...

I think I am going to offload ‘goodbye 2010’ post into parts. Too much research, ‘writer’s block’ (I am far from a gifted writer), not helped by plenty of computer downtime in the earlier half of this week.

So it would be kind of similar to the regular weekly updates of #FollowFriday or #MusicMonday on twitter, I’ll try to post a video or audio track that I’ve found interesting. It could be serious, provocative, abstract, or just packed with lame LOLs; and hopefully it would feature more than...

Reblog: Trish Balton, Overland Journal- Shafting...
I was going to type out a post of my own on thoughts of this Gillard-era of the ALP; but a week on from the overthrow of former-PM K Rudd, I have not yet type them out. It was going to be something along the lines of Julia Gillard: The Reluctant Prime Minister, but that may have needed to include my lacklustre non-knowledge of Labor factional politics.
But Trish Bolton’s contribution to...
