BushWorld o' Fascism: Bushworldofascism vs Islamofascism
With BushWorld and the Pastors of Genocide pushing the term "Islamofascism" in a ploy to piss people off enough that we will agree to the neo-con vision of Armageddon, but which might well actually turn out to be Amerigeddon, one wonders:
What the heck is Fascism anyway?
A number of A+ list bloggers including Juan Cole, Will Bunch, Bora Zivkovic and Jude Nagurney-Camwell have written eloquently on the matter, as elaborated by this post by Jude.

"Saint" Tancredo's Wall Spares Mexicans the Fiery Katrina
Tom Tancredo is being hailed as a saint for his visionary mercy when he created the wall that spared the lives of millions of Mexicans from the fiery Katrina that is engulfing much of their northern neighbor.
"What Kind of Blogger Are You?"/>ConvergeSouth Film Festival is now available online!
I love films. Well, many of them. And I loved most of the ones I saw during the ConvergeSouth Film Festival in Greensboro, North Carolina this weekend.
As I was watching, instead of having AFV pop to mind, I had flashes of Bunuel, Rouch, Dziga Vertov, Man Ray, Woman Rhea, Richter, Melies, Lumiere, Cocteau, Cockfinger, Eisenstein, and some of the pioneers of avant-garde cinema whack me across the glasses in Potemkian montage sequences, as my mind tumbled down the steps of ontological approval like a perambulator adrift on the gravity of pregnant steps of Odessa.
(working, working...)

ConvergeSouth: Post-Production
A blogger conference, like a movie, has 3 stages: Pre-Production, Production, and Post-Production. We are now in the Post-Production phase...and are seeking the help of those who may not have participated so fully in the other two phases.
Gathering, organizing and archiving photos, words, videos, music and such would be very useful...both for ConvergeSouth '07, as well as for future Converges.
If you were in attendance, and felt like you wish you could have contributed more...this is one way to do it. Another way is to volunteer for ConvergeSouth '08.

Rainbloggers Break North Carolina Drought! ConvergeSouth, Fifth Estate, Credited.
nf
ConvergeSouth was THIS BIG!

THE GATHERING OF THE FIFTH ESTATE
As the blognoscenti of The Fifth Estate gathered, I realized that it was going to be impossible to spend quality time with everyone, but I am glad that I did get some quality time with some quality folk, in particular, David Hoggard, Jay Ovittore, Dr. Sue, Michael Habib, Bora Zivkovic, David Jordan, Scott and Barbara Nelles, Stew Pittman, Billy the Wordjones, Dan Conover, Lex Alexander, Fec Stench, Brandon Gross, Saskia Wilson-Brown, Robert Reddick, and a few others. Some, like Ben Hwang and Ed Cone were always on the move, and thus hard to trap into a long discussion on what's next.
THE FUTURE:
CHARLOTTE FESTIVAL OF THE FIFTH ESTATE
I am pondering a notion from the mind of Joe Killian, who wondered why these events could not happen twice a year...
UNCC college of Computers and Informatics Campus
Charlotte is typically very lovely in April and May, which is roughly six months from now. The University of North Carolina at Charlotte has a new campus dedicated to Information Technology, which auspiciousoly lies at the north side of Charlotte, very close to I-85, from whence most people from the Triad and Triangle would be coming. Seems like such an event might serve both institutions well.

WE ARE THE ONES WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR...
(dans progress)
A
funny thing happened this weekend, beginning on Friday. While the stock market was going to shit, hominids were gathering in North Carolina to break the drought that was long plaguing the state. The impact was instantaneous and widespread.
Rain soaked the area represented by these holy blogger/rainpersons, and earth and heaven were once again speaking.
Here are some of the things unearthed by said rainbloggers...

University Place, Charlotte
Nearby is University Place, where people can stay, and party...and also NODA, charlotte's vibrant art district, which has venues for music, film, art, and good food. Again, this would serve both institutions well...
Charlotte Arts District (NODA)
Flight from other cities around the world are available, media coverage from the Charlotte Observer, sponsorship from Bank of America, Wachovia, BMW, and other deep pockets might be available...and Lord knows the city is always looking to promote the image of it being a state-of-the-art, world-class city. As I said also to Saskia and Brandon of Current TV and San Francisco...Charlotte's god in chief, Hugh McColl, loved San Francisco, and wanted to bring the best of that city to Charlotte. Among the projects he is involved with is the Echo Foundation, founded by Elie Wiesel and, i believe, headquartered in Charlotte.
Charlotte also has telemedicine, and is making great headway in holistic medicine...with Stewart Brand's recent involvement in the creation of a new holistic, hospital, replete with Feng Shui gardens, waterfalls, and much else besides. Surely an interesting topic for discussion... Perhaps health can be at the center of discussion, but maybe also other aspects of life for which the city is known, like investments, banking, business, sports...and these other quotidian, yet necessary, arenas.
Besides...the mayor is on Facebook.

ConvergeSouth: The Buzz That Was - Lenslinger, who writes: "When a shirtless Al Gore first twisted the internets out of molten lava, experts worried it would turn the people of the Earth into agoraphobic laptop addicts. Perhaps they had a point. Still, when used correctly, the series of tubes that is the web can actually bring people face to face - and I‘m not talking about those skeevy dating websites, either. I‘m talking ConvergeSouth. " Wondrous words, my friend!
