The White Stripes Protest Appropriation of 'Fell in Love with a Girl' in Air Force Reserve Ad →
In a statement posted Monday evening on the Third Man Records site, the band wrote:
We believe our song was re-recorded and used without permission of the White Stripes, our publishers, label or management.
The White Stripes take strong insult and objection to the Air Force Reserve presenting this advertisement with the implication that we licensed one of our songs to encourage recruitment during a war that we do not support.
The White Stripes support this nation’s military, at home and during times when our country needs and depends on them. We simply don’t want to be a cog in the wheel of the current conflict, and hope for a safe and speedy return home for our troops.
We have not licensed this song to the Air Force Reserve and plan to take strong action to stop the ad containing this music.
Why doesn’t the US military just stick to Ted Nugent for all of its advertising?

Besides being happy the Colts DIDN’T win, I am just happy for Drew Brees, period. He’s been a quiet, humble hero in the NFL for years. He deserves all the praise in the world for everything he’s done and the example he sets as a classic athlete with a heart of gold. (No word play intended.) He’s the anti-neoathlete. He’s everything Brett Favre isn’t. He’s the anti- “superstar” Tom Brady or Peyton Manning. And I fuckin’ love him for it.
Most quarterbacks in the NFL have families, but we can obviously see that Mr. Brees also takes his DNA-dispursement very seriously, rising above the challenge.

Think-tanks take oil money and use it to fund climate deniers →
The attack against scientists supportive of the idea of man-made climate change has grown in ferocity since the leak of thousands of documents on the subject from the University of East Anglia (UEA) on the eve of the Copenhagen climate summit last December.
Free-market, anti-climate change think-tanks such as the Atlas Economic Research Foundation in the US and the International Policy Network in the UK have received grants totalling hundreds of thousands of pounds from the multinational energy company ExxonMobil. Both organisations have funded international seminars pulling together climate change deniers from across the globe.
Terrorism, however, is a very good business. The number of extremists who are planning to carry out terrorist attacks is minuscule, but there are vast departments and legions of ambitious intelligence and military officers who desperately need to strike a tangible blow against terrorism, real or imagined, to promote their careers as well as justify obscene expenditures and a flagrant abuse of power. All this will not make us safer. It will not protect us from terrorist strikes. The more we dispatch brutal forms of power to the Islamic world the more enraged Muslims and terrorists we propel into the ranks of those who oppose us.

It’s Monday. That means I’m going to think about this puppy until I’m cheery again.
If anyone needs me, I’ll be in Public Policy class, doing the above.
