What with getting the Carnival of the Liberated up on Dean’s World first thing in the morning, Tuesdays sometimes just get ahead of me. Here’s what’s caught my eye so far:
- There doesn’t seem to be a lot of commentary from the blogosphere on the reported death of the elected leader of the Chechens, Asland Maskhadov, in operations by Russian special forces. Maskhadov was widely held responsible for the school hostage situation and subsequent death of more than 150 children, teachers, and others in Beslan last fall. Siberian Light seems to be on top of the situation with a run-down of major media reportage.
- Amarji posts from Syria on knowledge, change, and cutting his hair.
- American Future relays a story from Spiegel than an Iranian defector contradicts the mullahs’ claims that the Iranian nuclear research project is solely for peaceful purposes. Read all about it!
- CommonSenseDesk has a round-up of blogospheric reaction to the bankruptcy reform bill.
- While we’re on the subject of credit card debt, Max Sawicky of MaxSpeak asks a genuinely good question: would creditors be able to attach the private accounts and annuities being proposed for Social Security reform? Hat tip: Brad DeLong
- CodeBlueBlog fills us in on what’s actually going on with Bill Clinton’s health.
- There’s another chapter from Westerville, the Red State Lake Wobegone, over at Dennis the Peasant.
- Reflections on the state of both political parties from The Talking Dog.
- There’s a round-up of reactions from Lebanese bloggers at The Word Unheard.
That’s the lot.
