[ItsYourTimes.com - from each according to her knowledge, to each according to his curiosity] Get ready for corporate control | ItsYourTimes.com: Before Nero had fully consolidated his hold on power, he cultivated outward and public displays of filial piety, and strove to manifest “good intentions.” These were the veneer for monstrous crimes that were at first carried out covertly: “”¦at first his acts of wantonness, lust, extravagance, avarice, and cruelty were gradual and secret”¦.” But once Nero had firmly established his own regime, the monster became more and more overt: “little by little, however, as his vices grew stronger, he dropped jesting and secrecy and with no attempt at disguise openly broke out into worse crime.” [fn 1] Something similar can be observed in the case of Caligula, who had a wimp problem of sorts during the time that he lived on the island of Capri in the shadow of the aging emperor Tiberius, in somewhat the same way that Bush had lived in the shadpw of Reagan, as least as far as the public was concerned. In the case of Caligula, “although at Capri every kind of wile was resorted to by those who tried to lure him or force him to utter complaints, he never gave them any satisfaction”¦.” Caligula was “”¦so obsequious towards his grandfather [Tiberius] and his household, that it was well said of him that no one had ever been a better slave or a worse master.” [fn 2] Later, when Caligula came into his own, he exacted a terrible price from the world for his earlier humiliations.

[David Maister's Business Masterclass] Internal Blogs as a Management Tool > davidmaister.com > Passion ...: A lot of people use standard blog software (that’s why many blogs have a similar look and feel) The cost of this is really VERY cheap and quick and easy to install, but you have to shop around for the access features - most of the standard blog software that’s now out is aimed at external uses, and I don’t know which ones (if any) are readily adaptable for the internal blog use that I wrote about, nor what they offer in terms of access.

[Answers.com: Today in History] Spain: Definition from Answers.com: The Bourbon dynasty, which summoned the Cortes only to acclaim succession to the crown, proved unable to overhaul the Castilian tax structure, but, by eliminating regional privileges in the Aragonese realms, it increased revenues from Catalonia and Valencia as prosperity returned to those areas. From the mid-seventeenth century, corporations of tax farmers undertook much of the revenue collection.

[The American Spectator and AmSpecBlog] The American Spectator : The Republican Recovery: The danger of an opposition-based strategy that doesn't address any of the GOP's long-term problems is obvious: if the economy begins to recover, if Obama's approval ratings improve following a major legislative victory Republicans are still powerless to deny him, if the party peaks in 2010 and forces the president to tack to the center before running for re-election, Republicans won't be left with much to say.

[News] Climategate: 'It's all lies!' lies Pachauri (again) - Telegraph Blogs: You should listen to it anyways, just be aware that freedom entails the right to do business and keep the fruits of your labor. Corporations colluding with government to hinder the free market and create monopolies are the root of our problems, not profitable business decisions made by business leaders in a free market.”

[The American Spectator and AmSpecBlog] The American Spectator : Soros Show Trials: Note that 58% don't want any such 'commission', which is a landslide opposition, far more a landslide than the few points by which Obama won the election. If there are to be trials, it is Soros, MoveOn, Huffington, Kos, Center for Contitutional Rights, and every self-proclaimed 'human rights' Marxist/Muslim/Nazi adherents who belong in the dock, for their transparent acts of Treason.

I am active on Twitter, Facebook and my own blog, but still like to sit back and read the New York Times, Wired Magazine, Fast Company, BusinessWeek and many books that provide perspective on the era we are living through today.

[Nuts About Southwest -] We Take Safety Seriously | Nuts About Southwest: Southwest Airlines contacted Boeing for verification of their technical opinion that the continued operation of their Classic 737s, for up to ten days until the airplanes could be reinspected, did not pose a safety of flight issue. Based on a thorough review of many factors, including fleet history and test data, as well as other inspections and maintenance previously incorporated, Boeing concluded the 10-day compliance plan was technically valid.

[31] Wolfowitz added that he was horrified in March as  Saddam Hussein flew helicopters that slaughtered the people in the south and in the north who were rising up against him, while American fighter pilots flew overhead, desperately eager to shoot down those helicopters, and not allowed to do so.  During that hearing, he also stated:  Some people might say””and I think I would sympathise with this view””that perhaps if we had delayed the ceasefire by a few more days, we might have got rid of [Saddam Hussein].
