• Browser Vendors Force W3C To Scrap HTML 5 Codecs: The title is, like plenty of other Slashdot headlines, utterly clueless, but what fascinates me regarding the entire rigmarole isn't "Apple� 39;s":App le reticence in adopting "Ogg" ;:Wikipedia:Og g_Vorbis or the (shortsighted) perspectives on "MPEG-4&q uot;:MP4 - it's the fact that someone at "W3C" ;:W3C actually got suckered into believing it made sense to specify a codec as part of "HTML5&qu ot;:HTML - it would be tantamount to mandating all images to be of a single format, and, seriously, is not within their remit. Their real job ought to be making sure the markup mess is fixed once and for all (including fixing some of the fundamentally wrong things about the web), instead of trying to wedge in all the frilly stuff.

• The Obama Haters? Silent Enablers - NYTimes.com: In his scant 145 days in office, the new president has not remotely matched the Bush record in deficit creation. Nor has he repealed the right to bear arms or exacerbated the wars he inherited. He has tried more than his predecessor ever did to reach across the aisle. But none of that seems to matter. A sizable minority of Americans is irrationally fearful of the fast-moving generational, cultural and racial turnover Obama embodies ? indeed, of the 21st century itself.

• Philip Slater: The Cancer of Religious Narcissism

Sat May 30

• Wrong kind of modesty. Growing modesty requirements in religious world have nothing to do with religious law: In 10 years, the ultra-Orthodox will start missing the mixed-gender buses. You would be able to hear an old Orthodox man telling his wife: ?you remember, Rivkah, that 10 years ago we could still ride the bus together?? And Rivkah would confirm: ?Sure I remember. And we came out just as good as our children. But you know how it is. Everyone likes to invent new regulations.? It will happen because a bunch of fanatics decided that what goes on in buses today is truly reckless. They did not make do with seeing Orthodox men refrain from sitting next to a woman on a mixed-gender bus. They wanted buses to be completely separate. Using pressure and enticement tactics, they started to organize special routes and to force everyone using them, at discounted subsidized prices, to sit at the front with the men, get out of there to the back of the bus if it?s a woman.

• Religious Affairs: Jesus's Zionists. Like most religious Zionists, Aryeh Bar-David sees the hand of God in the establishment of the Jewish state and the Jewish people's repeated victories against its enemies.: Yom Ha'atzmau t has religious meaning as a tangible sign that God is fulfilling his biblical promises to the Jewish people. "God' ;s intervention in the course of history is so clear that, for me, it is absurd that people think we are just another secular democratic country," said Bar-David, who met me on Remembrance Day outside the Old City's Damascus Gate. "This,&qu ot; said Bar-David, gesturing toward the outer wall of the Old City, "is the manifestation of God's prophecies as stated in Ezekiel, Jeremiah and other places in the Bible," referring to the victory in the Six Day War which gave Israel control of east Jerusalem, including the Old City. Also similar to many religious Zionists, Bar-David, a veteran of 4 wars, is convinced that his religious faith helped him cope Under Sharon, he took part in some of the bloodiest battles for control of the Suez Canal Bar-David was forced to take over command when the platoon commander was killed in an ambush.

• ****[1967 WAR] 1967: The settlers' story Jewish settlers in the occupied territories are often seen as religious zealots - but many of them are not.: Those who take the Israeali state's shilling and come to dwell on the other side of the Green Line. To the outside world, settlers are often seen in a homogenous light - religious zealots with a Bible in one hand and an Uzi in the other, hate in their hearts and G-d on their side. The truth is far from uniform. There are to be found but there are also those who moved to Judea and Samaria for reasons entirely detached from religion and war. Ariel a mini-city "packed full of Russians" , according to one sabra settler we interviewed. The residents are largely there for economic reasons - the subsidies provided by the government, the cheap housing on offer, and the low cost of living all played their part in persuading immigrants from the USSR to set up home in Ariel. They are not concerned with the contentious politics of the region, anywhere cheap to call home. The first settlement to be set up in the Shomron region has a crowded town of over 7,000 residents.
