Finally, the real ending for Lost revealed (link roundup)



The intended ending for Lost, before the suits at ABC decided it was too provocative. Via.

And a few more links:

1. Good observations by Glenn Greenwald about politics.

2. Ilya Somin:
The conjunction of the Celtics-Lakers NBA Finals and the European Soccer Championship [this year, the World Cup] led me to reflect on two important advantage of US pro sports over international soccer: soccer often promotes nationalist and ethnic violence and provides propaganda fodder for repressive or corrupt governments, while US pro sports (with extremely rare exceptions) do not.
3. "In 17 months in office, President Obama has already outdone every previous president in pursuing leak prosecutions."

Chuck Norris vs. Medusa



Chuck Norris vs. Medusa by Jason Chalker for "Chuck Norris in Greek Mythology" week at The Austin Sketch Squad. See also, Walker: Texas Centaur.

And a few more links:

1. Apparently, the Clippers have to pay an AM radio station to broadcast their games in Los Angeles.

2. Don't waste your anger by directing it at AIG employees. The two biggest Congressional recipients of "bonuses" from A.I.G. were Chris Dodd and Barack Obama. Obama received $101,332 in contributions.

3. There's now a Crayola crayon called "Purple Mountain's Majesty." There's also one called "Awesome." How long until there's a blue one called "Twitter?"

4. High praise to Mobil's Speedpass, which has excellent customer service. I buy gas at Costco, so I decided to cancel my Speedpass. I called the 800 number, was promptly connected to a human who spoke clear English after I pressed 0, and he quickly canceled the account for me without making any attempt to sell me any services.

Black Belt Patriotism by Chuck Norris



Saw this prominently displayed in a nonironic way at the bookstore yesterday:
Book Description
Martial arts master, actor, and political activist--there is no job Chuck Norris can't do. Now the original tough guy is at it again, stepping back into the role of bestselling author with his new book, Black Belt Patriotism. In Black Belt Patriotism Norris gives a no-holds-barred assessment of American culture, tackling everything from family values to national security. More than a cultural critique of what's wrong with our nation, Black Belt Patriotism provides real solutions for solving our problems, moving our country forward, and changing our nation's course for the better. Chuck Norris--the hero, icon, and legend--is back, packing a political and cultural punch, as only he can deliver.

From the Inside Flap
Wake Up, America!

It seems like wherever you turn these days, the news is bad. Illegal immigrants are swarming over our borders. Our nation and American families are crippled by debt. We remain vulnerable to Islamist terrorist attacks. Judges ignore the Constitution and instead legislate from the bench. Faith and traditional values are under incessant assault from the media, leftist lawyers, and the liberal establishment. The core message of the Declaration of Independence--that everyone has a God-given right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness--is under threat from liberals who deny the right to life (or even the very idea of God-given rights), and who think the answer to every problem is a government program. They think that God, if He exists, might not know best, but liberal-run government certainly does. If you're worried about the direction our country is going, you're in good company. Chuck Norris remembers a better America--an America of faith, freedom, and respect for tradition, history, and human life--and in Black Belt Patriotism he shows what we need to do to reawaken the American dream, reignite the American spirit, and give our children and grandchildren the America they deserve: an America of freedom, opportunity, and faith. In ten practical, down-to-earth chapters, Norris gets back to basics, mining the insights of our founding fathers and applying their wisdom to the problems of today: immigration, the culture wars, the war against global terrorism, national (and personal) debt, even the epidemic of obesity that is killing more Americans than terrorists do. With the optimistic, get your-hands-dirty, can-do spirit that typifies what's best about America, Chuck Norris grapples with the toughest problems facing our country and proves that they're no match for Black Belt Patriotism.
