    The Rise of the Female Foreign Minister

    Well it is, and that does matter if the thesis (whatever it is) relies on some people being 'pretty'. But I knew that would wind you up, terrible thing for a man to suggest he might make an evaluation of a woman's looks. So it's that these lot are thick is it, I don't recall seeing you or...

    The Rise of the Female Foreign Minister

    Give it a rest. I'm not asking you the fricking question. You also still have no idea what other people are talking about because you endlessly insist on seeing something else. It's OK, I remember the post where you said that people think you are talking to them on the interent but actually you...

    Great 2 Step?

    With the Locked On connection I had the idea that Zed Bias was North London based. Sleazenation was - "a monthly London based fashion and lifestyle magazine printed by Swinstead Publishing. The magazine closed at the end of 2003 and was relaunched shortly afterwards as "Sleaze" magazine." Not...

    Great 2 Step?

    Maybe that's a bit off track for this thread, thought it might be worth a mention though. Zed Bias not living in London?

    Obviously scenes are there to be participated in, otherwise they wouldn't be scenes.

    Paper Route Gangstaz - Fear and Loathing in Hunts Vegas

    No need to apologise I don't think, I was quite erm, emphatic in my dismissal, but I didn't mean to be so without going into why. Well, I didn't intend to get into it at all, that just came out. ;) It's someone's work and it works for you so it would be somewhat pointless to knock that, but my...

    Films you've seen recently and would unreservedly recommend:

    Other than coincidence? At the showing for this one of the trailers was for Steven Soderbergh's two part Che Guevara biopic. So I guess revolution is in the air. Some might say conveniently canalised into cathartic spectator entertainment.

    High profiles murders in the U.S: what is going on?

    This is understood. I am interested in the idea that we "shouldn't" "have to" "adjust our lives" for any reason though. I absolutely applaud the idealistic refusal to accept restrictions. Really, to hell with gravity! Walls be damned! :)

    The Rise of the Female Foreign Minister

    My feeling initially would be that it would not so much be about the politics of population control or spectacular image as about international diplomacy and interpersonal politics. Perhaps it is understood by some of these harsh regimes that having a 'pretty' woman (I accept the principle but...

    The Rise of the Female Foreign Minister

    I don't know waffle, you brought it up. I was wondering first of all if this is a genuine statistical trend. So, assuming it is... 'Prettiness' is quite subjective, although maybe we can quantify it some way. Perhaps a poll? ;) I'm not sure the women in the pictures you posted look better to...

    High profiles murders in the U.S: what is going on?

    I was showing that in those scenarios it is not about any 'complicity' but to an extent it can be about, being wise. You're reading that into it but the example is simply meant to illustrate that no matter the desired rights and wrongs of a situation we still take circumstances into account...

    The Rise of the Female Foreign Minister

    Is there really a disproportionate trend for (far right) countries to appoint female foreign ministers, is it actually disproportionate? Is having representation not a good thing? Are there not many professions where you will find more of one gender than another? Is that always a bad thing? Are...

    Shame about the soundtrack though, a missed opportunity. Should have had lots of righteous German art-rock.

    Well that too, but I meant the bits in jail in Sweden when they are preparing for the trial. Seems they think she's a turncoat but it's not really apparent what their differences are. I thought the 'mossad spy' bit was just to get him out of the way. We didn't see him get out of Jordan though...

    In Germany I guess. Maybe they just straight translated the tag line? It's a very impressive film thinking about it. The style reminded me of the first Godfather in some weird way, probably something to do with the international location cuts and the following of a series of 'generations'...

    Films you've seen recently and would unreservedly recommend:

    Yeah I thought it was good. Impressively ambivalent in the depiction of events I thought, although you can probably tell where the film makers sympathies ultimately lie. Did seem like some useful bits might have been cut here and there though, it's quote long anyway but a few scenes don't quite...

    questions you are dying to ask but are too scared to b/c of music nerd cred?

    Shoes? Crepe soles? These are big on road right now so I'm told.
