Adbusters sponsors another rebellious idea. Antipreneuerism. Read about the Blackspot Anticorporation and their logo-lacking black spot sneaker, already on the market, and the ideas they are hoping to support, such as the Culture Shop.

Doesn't the black spot itself, the lack of a logo, become a logo as it is identified among culture jammers and actvists on the streets? Its very presence and visibility defines your identity as a corporate objector. I guess the difference is that the profits go to a nonprofit that support and further on of your pet causes?



This is why Barbara Boxer is my hero of the week!

And this essay by Sen. Edward Kennedy provides entirely rational reasons for his vote against Dr. Rice.

But England, it appears is struggling with conservative religious extremists just like we are here in George W. Bush's post-mandate America. The controversial musical continues to run to packed audience in London's West End but protests freaked over the BBC's recent broadcast of Jerry Springer: the musical. In this article BBC vice-president Terry Sanderson said: "This organised attack is the latest of a series of attempts by religious interests to control what we can see or say in this country."

But yet another instance of censorship backfire, the broadcast received record ratings --1.7 million viewers is almost double the usual audience for BBC opera programming.

I love that this article in the Observer gives Jerry the final word. He apparently saw the show in Edinburgh and liked it.
"I only wish I'd thought of it first," he said. "I don't object to anything in it. The whole show is tongue-in-cheek, so what is the problem?"

Great article on Murray Hill in the New York Times yesterday!
