In France, the results of canvasses undertaken by commercial public opinion research groups for fee-paying print and broadcast media are presented without reference to their margin for error or to their methods of extrapolation from small samples.
[...]The political editor of a major French newsgathering organization, requesting anonymity, said last month the margin for error was typically 3 percent to 4 percent.[...]
If this figure were superimposed on the French polls before the first round of balloting Sunday, it would suggest little difference in the potential scores of President Jacques Chirac and Prime Minister Lionel Jospin, or the narrowest of advantages for the incumbent president.
The Scorpion King so far from perfect it isn't funny, is nevertheless one of those movies that catches you up in something bigger than yourself, namely, an archetypal desire to enjoy good trash every now and then.(and the real story of the Scorpion King)
France is culturally and commercially impressive. But no longer is it exceptional in the sense that it can stand gloriously aloof from the sweep of the global economy, protecting its own businesses and movies, pretending to maintain a system that is neither capitalist fish nor socialist fowl, promoting a foreign policy that can no longer make a difference on its own. The presidential election, to date, has been notable for a dismal lack of candour about where the country is going or should go. Will that change in the next round? Probably not, but here's hoping.
Winfrey's core audience feels it has a relationship with her; if they tune in every day, they may spend more time listening to her than they do talking with their sisters or best friends. That relationship may be an illusion of sorts, the kind of phantom connection social commentators find so alarming, but nevertheless its effects are potent. Even people who don't really watch Oprah feel as if they know Oprah.Free ebooks helps to sell more books
Before Hustler, the choice was between the girls next door with gigantic tits in Playboy or those with smaller breasts in the slightly kinkier Penthouse.[...] Our Hustler Honeys were more like the hot little number down at the bar who'd likely give you a blow job out in the parking lot if you'd buy her a couple of beers.[...] I've always admired the way that Penthouse has tried to convince American men that small-breasted naughty young ladies are sexy, too -- quite a challenge in a culture where big boobs seem to be the primary sexual characteristic men look for in a woman<br/> "And," Ben [Pesta] noted, "online porn is vertically integrated. If you want to see pictures of 300-pound women stuffing tennis rackets up their butts, you just type in those words on Google. You don't have to page through all that other crap." (A recent Google search using the keywords tennis racket, hefty woman and butt turned up 52 hits. I did not check them out.)Andrea Dworkin (Salon on Andrea Dworkin) and The People vs Larry Flint (IMDB info) and Google it :)
We might be comforted by the fact that there has never been a generation that hasn't looked to the media as corrupting its youth. Before there was pornography, there was MTV, and before MTV, there was rock 'n' roll, before rock 'n' roll, there was comic books, before comic books, there was dime novels, before dime novels, there was burlesque. And yet each generation of youth somehow managed to grow up and be morally upstanding enough to decry whatever they felt was happening to the next generation.
Anyway, I'm still trying to figure out what weblogging is, but it sure doesn't seem to be journalism most of the time.and on Jon's Radio
Looking into blogspace with fresh eyes, Jeffrey [P Shell] wondered "Why write when there's so much else to do? Who's reading?"I know I don't scale, even with RSS.
