Reasonoid Radley Balko has a great post on Ron Paul up today. Snippet: Paul doesn't consider this worthy of a serious reaction. I was hoping for much, much more. If Paul didn't write these screeds, he should tell us who did, or assign someone from the campaign to do some research, and reveal the authors' identity. Glenn Greenwald has ... Glenn Greenwald has a great, regularly-updated post here about National Review's fabrication scandal, which has gone neglected by media critics and, not too surprisingly, the entire rightwing blogosphere. For more on Mark Steyn, one of the National Review folks whose scolding tone during TNR's similar scandal has not re-emerged in this case, check out my latest Campus Progress post.

Glenn Reynolds, right-wing bloggers continue to insist there is no truth In his usual habit of linking to something approvingly without first checking whether or not it is categorically false, Glenn Reynolds yesterday directed readers to this mean-spirited post on a blog called "Classical Values". The classical values-espousing writer implies that a Daily Kos poster's call to send care packages to our troops is a cynical ploy, designed solely so that the troop-hating moonbats over there can use this for propaganda in a few months. Commenters at the site then simult In fairness to Natio... In fairness to National Review, its writers don't only go off on wild, wholly unsubstantiated conspiracy theories involving the left; they're starting to do so as part of their internecine pre-primary fighting as well. The next few months should be fun! Working on a new blog... This is a hectic semester for me as it's my last in college, but I've also been working on a new project that will hopefully eventually replace Catalyst with a prettier, perhaps a bit more "Web 2.0-y" blog.

Someone wants an on-air interview Kathryn Jean Lopez, in a post titled "Come Off It, Already":Now Mrs. Edwards is questioning Rush Limbaugh's deferment.

Potbs Pvpers And Tactical Supremacy By Rayford Adams
Trading is the main activity in PotBS as it fuels the endless demand of war. However, it is PvP that brings the game to life. The 17th century Caribbean Sea was filled with blood spilling action. Flying Lab Software brought us back to that moment in a perfect manner. PvP in PotBS is based upon causes ranging from large scale conflicts over port sovereignty or merely just a drunken captain looking for trouble. but nonetheless, it is what makes this game go around. Players looking for better armaments wage war against other factions, competing for port sovereignty, going to battle after battle for it.
There are many key elements to dominate PvP in PotBS. Two kind of combat are a naval combat and a swashbuckling combat. A naval combat is where ships take their turns unleashing one barrage after another upon the opposition and a swashbuckling combat is where players enter a chaotic blood bath trying just to survive. There are many different aspects needed to master both types of combat and to survive in the open sea, these elements are not to be neglected.
Strategy Freaks members are fine-tuning strategies for both over at their forum. As an example, let's take a look at a naval combat general strategy. Ships in PotBS rely solely on wind direction to determine their speed and tactic for each fight. Scout ships are going to benefit more from a wind and with this advantage, an elite captain in a scout can take down any larger battleship.
