Over the next couple of weeks Blogger will gradually roll out redirects to country-code URL's (or ccTLD's) for all Blogger sites. Per Blogger's support page:

If you're in Australia and viewing .blogspot.com, you might be redirected .blogspot.com.au. A ccTLD, when it appears, corresponds with the country of the reader’s current location.

This update will unfortunately cause a major issue with our Blogger Widget installation, where the same post will show different sets of comments depending on which ccTLD your readers visit.

De los creadores de "Star Wreck" (parodia de Star Trek hecha por aficionados y que arraso en internet) llega "Iron Sky".

Mucho ha llovido desde que aparecio el primer teaser/trailer por internet y pese a los muchos contratiempos con que se ha encontrado la película, la mayoría de carácter económico, parece que por fin "Iron Sky" tiene fecha de estreno (4/4/2012).

Review of Ian Milne's "Time to Say No" [to the EU]

Reblogged from The Libertarian Alliance: BLOG:

Review by Sean Gabb Time to Say No: Alternatives to EU Membership by Ian Milne Civitas, London, 78pp, £8.00 ISBN: 978-1906837327

In its supporting evidence, this is a very useful book. In its overall purpose, it is quite useless. Its former is the claim that British membership of the European Union does not pass any kind of cost-benefit analysis. Our trade outside the EU has been growing much faster than our trade within.

One-Eyed Media Kings: Seumas Milne, George Monbiot & ‘Media Analysis’ In The Guardian Wonderland

Reblogged from Chomsky Watch:

It may well be that you were able to do a better job of including voices of dissent than any other trusted pair of hands at the Guardian would have managed. But how many of these dissenting voices really ‘joined the dots’ in the way that Noam Chomsky does so well and so consistently? How many critical pieces in the Guardian portrayed the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq accurately as wars of aggression, as judged by the standards of the post-WW2 Nuremberg trials?

Autobiography - A.A. Milne

Reblogged from The Captive Reader:

• 

I personally believe that articles are wonderful things but whoever titled this book for American audiences did not apparently agree: the wonderfully named It’s Too Late Now by A.A. Milne became Autobiography by A.A. Milne (not ‘the’, not ‘an’, just Autobiography) when it was published in America in 1939.  Obviously that in no way impaired the excellence of the contents but, in trading the light-hearted UK title for the bland American one, I can’t help but feel that the publisher’s marketing people let everyone down.

Seumas Milne: support Assad to help Iran

Reblogged from Shiraz Socialist:

As Bashar al-Assad steps up his murderous assault upon the population of Homs, the Guardian's tame Stalinist Seumas Milne attempts a defence of Russia's and China's veto of the Arab League-backed resolution at the UN. It's a shoddy, despicable piece of mendacity even by Posh Boy Milne's debased 'standards.' Like the good Stalinist he his, Milne wriggles, obfuscates and sets up a whole regiment of straw men (notably that the the resolution…
