Procrastination

May 16th, 2008

Darren from ProBlogger has a vidcast on five emerging trends he sees in blogging.

Barney gives us worrying news that all of the Baha’i leadership in Iran have now been arrested and put in prison (given the timing, I wonder if it’s Iran’s response to the recent election of the Baha’i world leadership held in Haifa just a few weeks ago.) [Update: News originally broken on Baha’i Rants]

Speaking of Baha’is, in Victoria they’ve just sent out a call for donations to build a new headquarters, and they’re looking at around $4 mil. (of which they hope $3 mil. plus will be donated locally). Baha’is cannot accept donations from non-Baha’is, so it all has to be raised in-house.

Paul has a list of “the false gods of Christendom,” which could also apply to us.

The Liberals on a road to nowhere.

    this sad news was broken on Baha’i Rants many hours before other bloggers like Barney, and before official Baha’i sites and news sites online mentioned it. You can read people’s comments in the post to see confirmation of this.
    Just wanted to set the record straight :-)

    BTW - Abu Yasmin and I have spent a quantity of time trying to figure out who you are IRL. It’s driving us nuts (but of course, respect the anonymity, it’s neccessary!)
