A BLOODY WEEKEND: In Chicago.

ANOTHER Anniversary. The U.S. did better than Powell expected on race, but it may be that we had more reserves to draw on than Britain possesses.

ROGER SIMON: The Washington Post in Desperation Mode.

UPDATE: A different kind of desperation at The New York Times? They're related, though . . . .

THOUGHTS ON EARTH DAY, from Eric Scheie: "May Mike Godwin forgive me for the post I am about to write."

Mike's a pretty forgiving guy. But then, he'd have to be.

JEFF GOLDSTEIN on blog grammar.

MORE REVISIONIST HISTORY from MoveOn.org. We are in favor of the war in Afghanistan. We have always been in favor of the war in Afghanistan! Pay no attention to that petition in the Google cache!

THE D300'S BIG BROTHER: A review of the new Nikon D3.

MORE ASUS NEWS: "Asus informed us this evening that the Eee PC 900 will hit the store shelves in the U.S. on May 12th. The Linux and Windows XP loaded version of this 8.9" version of the Eee PC will both cost $549." I'd like to do a comparison with HP's Mini-Note, which'll be out about the same time, and around the same price. It'll be available with XP, too, and I have to say it looks cooler for whatever that's worth.

FROM REFIGHTING THE 1960S TO REFIGHTING THE 1980S? Is that progress?

FEAR AND LOATHING at the Los Angeles Times.

PAM MEISTER SAYS that if the feds are going to investigate CEO pay they should investigate others, too.
