HARARE, ZIMBABWE (Apr 4, 2008) -- Intruders ransacked offices of the main opposition party and police detained foreign journalists yesterday in an ominous sign that President Robert Mugabe might turn to intimidation and violence in trying to stave off an electoral threat to his 28-year rule.

BRIEF NOTE] Slovenia's Ten Day War
Tue, 15 Apr 2008 19:58:23 PDT
Partly because I'm interested in it as inspiration for an ongoing writing project, I've been reading up on Slovenia's war of independence, the Ten Day War, fought in June 1991 a year after a declaration of independence. (The previous link was to Wikipedia; the Slovenian defense ministry's version is here.) The main thing that strikes me about this war of independence is how neatly and successfully it was managed, with barely more than a hundred casualties and a duration of just ten days, and a n

Health: Pregnant Men are The Trendliest
Tue, 15 Apr 2008 09:50:40 PDT
The Trendliest explores the hottest new health trend, getting men pregnant and coins the phrase "Pregmancy".
Last night's CMT Music Awards�the country-music television network's version of its sister network MTV's Video Music Awards�veered into "a little more than slightly excruciating" territory when co-host Miley Cyrus tripped her way through a Taylor Swift intro in which she talked about texting the glittery-guitar-hoisting country protege incessantly, an endless setup to what would be one of many "ha ha, Dad, I'm paying your bills!" zingers that the Hannah Montana star sent in the direction of her father/svengali, "Achy Breaky Heart" singer Billy Ray Cyrus. (Yes, he performed the line dance that sent him and his mullet to stardom back in 1992, the same year his cash cow was sired.) The opening skit, in which Trace Adkins and his really greasy mop tried currying favor with everyone from Donald Trump to the three remaining Presidential candidates in order to get passes to the show, also mined that route; its final punchline was that Billy Ray was making extra scratch by scalping tickets, which were of course hot properties because of his daughter's presence. That girl is going to be so messed up in three years. Full list of winners�which includes three awards for Kellie Pickler, two for Taylor Swift, and one for that super-creepy video where Jon Bon Jovi and Leann Rimes make out�after the jump.
