"The stream of Time, irresistible, ever moving, carries off and bears away all things that come to birth and plunges them into utter darkness, both deeds of no account and deeds which are mighty and worthy of commemoration. . .Nevertheless, the science of History is a great bulwark against the stream of Time; in a way it checks this irresistible flood, it holds in a tight grasp whatever it can seize floating on the surface and will not allow it to slip away into the depths of Oblivion. "
- Anna Comnena (1083-1153), The Alexiad
"I have taken all knowledge to be my province."

Doldrums of Blogging
I'm not sure what to blog about lately. It's different now, both the situation and my ability to blog in a timely manner. The site has continued to suffer from it.
What I'm going to try and do is transform this into a weekly essay site. I'll see what I can drum up.
Things in Iraq seem to have gone ok, the election about as well as the optimistic prediction. We'll see if the attacks die down. One thing's for sure is the solution isn't overnight, and anyone expecting that is fooling themselves, and anyone setting that as the standard is fooling others.
There is of course the North Korea issue, but we covered that before. The fact that they openly anounced what they had already anounced changes little. Likewise with Iran, where it is deja vu all over again.
