What is the .edu domain?
The .edu domain is one of the seven original top-level subdivisions of the
Internet Domain Name System (DNS). The .edu domain is intended for
accredited post-secondary educational U.S. institutions. It is managed under
the authority of the United States Department of
Just as the hateful comedy hack Dennis Miller wants to unleash the Nintendo
generation in the War on Terror, old stories reemerge to ignite the upcoming
cyberwar. Not only did Saddam, allegedly, plan to pilot his experimental
heaps of duct tape and balsawood courtesy of Sony, he was to blame for
Dr. Tim Lahaye, prophet on prophecy and, at best, co-author of his own
books, hovers at the very top of the NYT best seller lists for fiction with
the Left Behind series about the Rapture. His latest installment (11 so
far) of what Americans love to read pits the UN as the body of the

It's the media, stupid.
I regularly turn to Comedy Central's Daily Show with John Stewart for the
news and tune into CSPAN for moments of high comedy. Press briefings by
Scotty are pretty hilarious if you enjoy schizo doubletalk and old
Anyone interested in expressions of democracy and computers may find this
thorough overview very interesting. The facts and figures have been bouncing
around for awhile in different features, but The Independent, today, finally
put many of them together on the front page online -- as the

While the style of your text is characterized by the super-confidence that
has much in common with what drives the world to despair of America, it also
sounds a bit too much like Europeans and intellectuals are old fashioned
anti-American
Re: 9/18/03 20:48, t byfield [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
is this a rhetorical question?
Is it? Mine was certainly a question asked with an answer already in mind,
and it may thus be considered redundant or insincere. The fact that it can
be threaded by dredging through the archives for an already-made

Good question, wrong example. One of the things I've always liked about Lev
Manovich's work is precisely the fact that he doesn't quote the same texts
over and over again. There's a posse full of academics happy to download
Benjamin,
Final sentence from: Lev Manovich, Don't Call it Art: Ars Electronica 2003
Today, when pretty much every artist and cultural producer is widely using
computers while also typically being motivated by many other themes and
discourses, is it in fact possible that digital art happens everywhere

That's all well, but the arguments that so few are affected by it, it can
be bypassed, it's barely enforced and so are part of the hibernation period

Two world bodies are convening these very days: the UN and the WTO.

As predicted long before the war, the US is now pressuring the UN to invest
in its hapless Iraq venture with cash and/or fresh meat for pointless
slaughter, of self and others. Unlike the previous public showdown that had

Siva provides a very good overview with most of the usual facts/arguments
thrown in (along with some new, to me at least, links). However, it is
interesting to note how little this debate (?) has changed over the last
years, even throughout the batches periodically reappearing here on
nettime.
Bush now has his own talking, but not walking, action figure. The tinny
voice box oratory, complete with trademark malapropisms, uncannily echoes
the authentic words read off the autocue. The greatest hits obviously
include such a nugget as Either you are for us, or you are against us.

Remember that odd percentage of Americans who believed the 9/11 jets were
loaded with _Iraqi_ terrorists? Well here's that same crowd polled again
about WMD. Time for a modem giveaway before 2004, perhaps?

Not being an economist, but intrigued by the buried news that Iraq linked
its oil trade to the euro at the expense of the dollar in late 2000, I
looked around for some truth to this story. Sure enough, in October of 2000
the UN opened an Iraq account in euro, after Iraq had indicated that it

It may be worth noting that the strictly pathological approach (implicitly
replicated in your virus treatment) has proven itself to be somewhat
useless, even to medicine, and has fallen out of favor all around. Pregnancy
