City by the Bay(ing), Update

Glenn Frazier has a roundup of the (sadly) scant major media coverage given the SFSU pro-Israel rally-cum-anti-Semitic hate fest.

Give a shout out to the east coast!

Damn! Meant to mention this a few days back, but I plum forgot. Alex Knapp of the outstanding Heretical Ideas is out from under his legal troubles and is back online, posting tasty, libertarian-flavored instructo-nuggets for your “chew-on-this” cravings. Good to see he’s is still keeping an eye on homeland security and intelligence failures, too. My bet? Alex is one of those dudes with a respirator, surgical masks, and all

It’s Becoming Just Like California!

…Meanwhile, in Bizzaro World…. “Authorities have banned males under 18 years old from coffeehouses in a bid to preserve their morals and stop them from smoking,” the Arab News reports. “Officials from the Commission for Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice will mount surprise raids on cafes and arrest anyone violating the ban, Othman Al-Othman, the head of the commission in Riyadh, told Al-Jazirah newspaper.” Cafe owners had also

Majorities in both the House and the Senate have endorsed such measures. The administration

Breaking News: “Bobbitt’s Arrest Costs Him Celebrity Boxing Match”! ‘t seems the infamously truncated one’s been busted once again — for spousal abuse this time (dude! have you learned nothing from having your, er, tally-whacked?) — so he’ll miss his FOX “celebrity” boxing match against Long Island Lolita pimp, Joey Buttafuoco. Tough break for the star of 1996’s Frankenpenis. No matter, though. Former female wrasslin’ star Chyna’s gonna step in

Kids’ Stuff

Writing in The National Review, Stanley Kurtz raises some interesting questions about structurally hyperbolic “zero-tolerance” policies: Maybe you missed the latest ‘zero tolerance’ horror story.

What’s worse, the school brought these boys in for questioning to see if their parents owned guns-as if that should matter.
