Did The Wizard of Oz inspire Lord of the Rings? "The first film version of L. Frank Baum’s The Wizard of Oz was released in the summer of 1939, less than a month before World War II officially began. Though started as early as 1937, The Lord of the Rings was largely composed during the war years, but not published until somewhat later. Therefore, it is by no means impossible that J.R.R. Tolkien saw the magnificent MGM movie before he wrote most of his magnum opus. Could Oz have influenced his tale somehow, consciously or unconsciously?"

First, there was this -- by John Moe, in McSweeney's, much-blogged already but much funny, too:

# How Are We Going to Get These Dogs Back In?
# Bust an Additional Move
# Seriously, Eileen, Come On
# I Will Now Pass the Dutchie Back to You and Thank You for Passing It to Me Originally Because I Really Enjoyed the Dutchie
# Whoomp! There It Continues to Be

Link. Now, there's this, from sturtle:

# "As My Eyes Became Accustomed to Her Science, My Sight Was Restored"
# "Baby Lost 20 Pounds of Back (on Atkins)"
# "I Am No Longer Too Sexy for My Ten-Year-Old Shirt"
# and of course, "100 Luftballoons"

Link. But wait! Francis says Kittenpants blog has still more followups to followups to followup song titles. (Thanks, Siege, and thanks, Snoodle!).

Tough on Terror, or Tough on Liberty?

Tough on Terror, or Tough on Liberty? 12/12/2003 10:06 PM
Reports, including this one from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, on a study on the prevalence of terror-related crime hit the wire services several days ago but have received relatively little attention in broad circles. The new study, done by the TRAC research center at Syracuse University, shows that federal investigators have recommended the prosecution of an estimated 6,400 people on terrorism charges since September 11, 2001. Out of 6,400 cases, just 879 have been convicted. Of these, 184 have been convicted of "international terrorism" and the remainder for related charges. Overall, only 123 received significant sentences (over one year in prison) and only 23 were sentenced to five years or more. Also, convictions for "international terrorism" had a median duration of just 14 days, indicating that the vast majority of these convictions were for very minor crimes. The linked story quotes Charles Pena, director of a libertarian group. "It bothers me that we would round up whole bunches of people without an idea about whether they really are a terrorist . . . It certainly is valid to ask whether the whole war on terror is successful."

Times Were Bad, VCs Get Tough; Times Are
Good, VCs Get Tough 05/20/2004 01:05 PM
After the bubble popped, many VCs practically stopped all investing. In the cases where they did invest, they often put in incre dibly onerous terms that gave the VCs a lot more power than they might have deserved (though, some VCs will disagree with this). Of course, now that times are getting better, people are saying that VCs are tightening terms again - so as not to get burned. What this really means is that many VCs are looking for any reason to make the terms more in their favor. Times are bad? Terms need to be tighter. Times are good? Terms need to be tighter to make sure they don't go bad again. The obvious response, of course, is that it is the VC's job to get good terms - but if those terms cause more problems, it's a strategic mistake. If entrepreneurs feel that their VCs are ripping them off, it defeats much of the purpose of getting that VC money in the first place. Besides, as the startup market picks up again (as it's doing) this becomes less of an issue. Already, we hear stories about VCs offering ridiculous valuations to companies because they're in a "hot" space. When competition for the hot startups increases, VCs are suddenly willing to make the terms a bit more reasonable.

Rogers Cadenhead: This sounds good, though it officially abandons the pretense that Google's search algorithm is tailored to the linking behavior of Web users, rather than the other way around. The lines between us and them is blurry.  Everything is intertwingled.  Whether we admitted it before or not. My urls contain dashes instead of underscores because google likes them better.  My <title>s are meaningful for similar reasons. In return, I get a more traffic from Google.
