So, through tomorrow, TimeSelect is free. For those who don't know, TimeSelect is the online, paid subscription to the NYTimes that gives access to things like the opinions page, archives and other good videos and blogs that people couldn't see otherwise. Anyway, I think because of the election, they made it free this week.
I beg you to go on there and check out Nick Kristof's stuff. He has lots of amazing video blogs about his trips in Darfur and other parts of Africa. In my opinion, he is basically the leading reporter in the US trying to bring the genocide in Darfur to the forefront of national issues and people's attention. I also think the New York Times has done a very exceptional job allowing him to do that and trying to generate as much attention to it as possible.
Anyway, if you read this today or tomorrow, I urge you to check it out. Go to www.nytimes.com, and then click the link at the top that says "Opinion."

Casualties occur: the rich, fleecy texture of image, its extraordinary plasticity and flexibility, its private nostalgic emotional hues--all are lost when image is crammed into language -- Irvin D. Yalom
