At the Tide of High Midsummer

At the Tide of High Midsummer,
when all the world al all aglow,
the cold and frost and hardship
are just memories of snow

At the Tide of High Midsummer,
when Sunna's shining high,
the bonfires and the balefires
will color nighttime sky.

At the Tide of High Midsummer,
when the corn is soft and green,
across the fields and pastures
herds of cattle can be seen.

At the Tide of High Midsummer,
when the mead is flowing free,
round harrow with my kinsmen
is where I want to be.

Hail Ravenswood

Studying Whiteness

Unbelieveable! I don't post too much political stuff here, but this has to be seen for what it is: a racist ploy to denigrate a class of people based on skin color (or lack thereof).

I just wonder why it took so long for the mainstream media to get the news out: I Googled this looking for background and found stuff going back to 1992.....

From the the article:

David Horowitz, a conservative social critic who is white, said whiteness studies is leftist philosophy spiraling out of control. "Black studies celebrates blackness, Chicano studies celebrates Chicanos, women’s studies celebrates women, and white studies attacks white people as evil," Horowitz said.

FBI vs P2P

Well, those lazy FBI agents obviously don't have anything better to do with their time than chase teenagers on Gnutella ... I mean, it's not like there's a war on terrorism or anything ...

New bill injects FBI into P2P battle. A bill introduced in Congress would put federal agents in the business of investigating and prosecuting copyright violations, including online swapping of copyrighted works. [CNET News.com]
