Watching Andrew Sullivans Sad Downfall

It appears he has given again a few suggestions to Ann Althouse. See "But keep going, Ann. Debunk them all. With facts, not spin." I love this comment "Andrew Sullivan is employed to write for The Atlantic, a publication which was founded by and once published such writers as Harriet Beecher Stowe, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr., and James...

The Most Successful Woman We Will Ever Know In This Country?

It's one of those statements that jolts you, revealing yet another decline of the once-noble American culture into the marshes of insipidity. For in the mind of Chicago Mayor Richard Daley (and probably many other celebrity worshipers), Oprah Winfrey, a New Age egotist who talks about mostly inane, irrelevant topics on a TV program, soars above all mothers, scientists, political leaders, doctors,...

Monday Mentionables: An Author to Watch For

"Never give up, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn." ~Harriet Beecher Stowe I'm thrilled to share the news that fellow Samhain author, Rebecca James , has hit it big in the publishing world, in her home country of Australia. Rebecca released her debut book, Nightswimming , with Samhain Publishing back in 2007. Now she's being called "the next Stephenie Meyer"...

ABC Wednesday 5: Q is for...

...Quirky My blog is often described as quirky and I take that as a real compliment: it's probably the best way I'd like you to think about Veg Plotting . But what does quirky actually mean? The Free Dictionary defines quirk (pronounced kwurk ) as: A peculiarity of behavior; an idiosyncrasy: "Every man has his own quirks and twists" ( Harriet Beecher Stowe ). An unpredictable or unaccountable...

Happy Birthday, Lyman Beecher! (October 12, 1775)

As opposed to celebrating Cristóbal Colón this Columbus Day, who really stole all he could see in 1493, let's celebrate the birthday of Lyman Beecher who was born on October 12, 1775 in Connecticut. 1775 was a banner year for America, when Americans began their fight for independence from Great Britain, thus becoming the United States of America. Lyman Beecher was born . He was an intelligent...

GREGORY KANE COMMENTARY: Black-On-Black Killings And Uncle Toms

The conservative Republican columnist calls for a paradigm shift in Black America (hat tip: Black & Right ): "Bigger Thomas' body count continues to grow; 16-year-old Derrion Albert is just his latest, and perhaps most tragic victim. Bigger Thomas is the fictional anti-hero of Richard Wright's classic novel Native Son . Bigger bullies members of his gang, murders a white socialite and his...

A National Model for Choosing LIfe on College Campuses

Lacy Dodd, a 33-year-old banking professional and mother of one, knows precisely where supporters and opponents of legal abortion can find common ground. It's on nearly four acres donated by the Benedictine monks of Belmont Abbey in Belmont, N.C., where Room at the Inn, a Charlotte-based pregnancy resource center, hopes to build the nation's first campus-based maternity and after-care residence for...

Former President Jimmy Carter Opines About Obama Critics & Race: Conservative Perspectives

Alan Keyes: "Jimmy Carter's New Twist On Old South Race Baiting" The conservative activist and America's Independent Party member opines that - contrary to former U.S. President Jimmy Carter's claims - U.S. President Barack Obama's blackness is of African Muslim stock and not black American Christian stock, which its rich heritage of liberty : "So, let's see.

Mad Men "My Old Kentucky Home": Foreshadowing

"Just wait... all hell's gonna break loose." - Gene to Sally So far this season has been dripping with historical foreshadowing, hinting at both the impending assassination of Kennedy and the generational rift that's about to bust loose. So the comment from a very lucid Gene to Sally (in the context of The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire ) takes on extra weight. Edward...

Characters in Literature I Hate

Well, perhaps hate is too strong a word though there are a lot that I find quite tiresome, particularly the feckless Harold Skimpole in Charles Dickens's Bleak House , and just about everyone in George Bernard Shaw's overrated and bloodless plays. But the one character who had the most negative impact on me was Uncle Tom. I used to wonder what black Americans meant when they used the term in such a...

Short Stories: An Editor's Advice

The Atlantic is an American magazine with a long and honourable literary tradition. Founded in 1857 by a group of eminent writers that included Ralph Waldo Emerson, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow and Harriet Beecher Stowe, the magazine now publishes an annual all-fiction issue. One of the things that caught my eye in the latest edition ( available on-line now ) was the Editor’s...
