TV to watch until writers strike delay of new episodes is over

Sea Patrol - An Aussie TV show from last year with 13 episodes. The show focuses on the Australian coastal patrol boat HMAS Hammersley with missions very similar to the US Coast Guard. Watch for the appearance of Yvonne Stahovski (of Chuck) in the final episode.

The Border - A Canadian show currently airing it's eighth episode featuring the Canadian Immigration and Customs Service. Sofia Miloz (Miami CSI) plays a US Homeland Security agent who of course shows lots of American arrogance that the Canadian political heads cave to every time.

Different forms of Libertarianism

This posting from About.com on the different forms of libertarian philosophy was a surprise to me. I would never have thought that so called "Geoliberatianism" or "Social libertarianism" would fall anywhere in the sphere of libertarian philosophy.

Good article on libertarianism in the US today from Time magazine!

I was amazed to find this article from one of the largest media outlets that actually expresses much of my feelings about the current political parties. Amazed because the main media outlets generally have a more "in the rut" view of politics.
