C-SPAN ARCHIVES ON THE WWW
I wrote on May 18 that I missed some TV programs on the C-SPAN channel. You could now watch the following programs on C-SPAN's web site:
* Interview with Ayn Rand from 1961.
* Panel Discussion: "Ayn Rand, Communism and the Hollywood Blacklist."
* Panel Discussion: "The Fountainhead and Today's World."
* Speech: Jeff Britting, Archivist, Ayn Rand Archives on "Ayn Rand and Hollywood: Soviet Film School to The Fountainhead."

HEROISM
Go to Prodos.com and listen to an interview with Andrew Bernstein. I enjoy reading Andrew Bernstein's novel, The Heart of a Pagan.
Read Andrew Bernstein's article, The Philosophical Foundations of Heroism.

THE PHILOSOPHY OF PUNCTUATION
The Philosophy of Punctuation by Paul Robinson. [Via Arts & Letters Daily.]
Listen to Victor Borge's Phonetic Punctuation system. I have added Werner Knudsen's Victor Borge Tribute site to the Humor category.

TERROR ALERT
This is a scary terror alert from Eyewitness News / CBS: "On Thursday, the FBI issued the alert to state and local law enforcement officials � its an internal warning to cops around the nation, cautioning that al-Qaida supporters in the United States may use nerve gas to poison subway systems in New York, Washington D.C. and other major cities before or during the fourth of July."

"CAPTAIN EURO"
Twelve Stars Communications has created a comic strip in order to promote the European Union! Here is a quote from their press release:
"Captain Euro, Europe's superhero created by Twelve Stars to improve the image of the EU, appeared as a guest star in the famous Channel 4 Programme EUROTRASH hosted by Antoine De Caunes."
I wonder how much this joke will cost the European tax payers. Check out super"hero", Captain Euro. [Via InstaPundit.]
For a real superhero, check out Steve Ditko's character, Mr. A.
Read Jerry Nilson's article, EU � Altruism, Kollektivism & Konflikter. (The article is in Swedish.)

JUNK SCIENCE
Thomas Sowell has a hard-hitting article in The Jewish World Review. Here is a quote from his article, Global lying:
"What are all these ploys about? There are people in the environmental cult and in the media who are hell-bent to have the United States and other countries sign the Kyoto treaty that would drastically restrict how our economy works and what kind of lives the average American could lead."

NEWSPAPER TOOK A BITE OF THE ONION
Report from Reuters: "Beijing's most popular newspaper has unwittingly republished a bogus story about U.S. Congress threats to skip town for Memphis or Charlotte unless Washington builds them a new Capitol building with a retractable dome." Beijing Evening News gathered the information from The Onion! HaHa! ;)

DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY
Watch Bush's address to the nation and his proposal of creating a new agency called the Department of Homeland Security. Read the text of his speech on MSNBC's web site. It will be interesting to see what will come out of this proposal.
Read this amazing story on ABC News on how terrorists tried to get loans from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. I think it is incredible that nobody took notice of Mohamed Atta's strange behavior.
