Barbara Kay, NP: Abortion czar Dr Henry Morgentaler will be receiving his Order of Canada in a quiet little ceremony in Quebec City today. The typical OC is inducted in Ottawa amongst his or her peers. So it is fitting that Dr Morgentaler's should be in Quebec, where the abortion rate is double that of the rest of Canada, and therefore the least likely place in Canada to draw a large protest. Ah well,...

Alber Elbaz gives Lily Donaldson an adjustment before the show. (Jean-Luce Huré for The New York Times) Thanks to everyone for some of the best conversations on OTR since we started. And a "welcome back" to notdaisyo, whose comment "are we feeling the future before it happens" made me wonder if the present is more than [...]

A couple hours ago, I mentioned briefly my preference for form over function, beauty over utility, and I’d like to add a postscript to my thoughts. It’s more my intention to write about my observations than it is to make pronouncements about the way others ought to live and think. True, I fail. There are [...]

Barack Obama devastated John McCain’s hope for a game changer tonight. Obama won the debate handily. The trouble for John McCain began much before the first question in the debate. John McCain was snookered by his own running mate. When Sarah Palin launched her hate filled character attacks aimed at Barack Obama over the weekend, she [...]

On September 19th - about 9 days after the primary election, I read at TAP that Jon Powers was being offered a job in Washington DC which would not only give him something to do, but also be a way to get his name off the Working Families line. Evidently, according to the Buffalo [...]

Biden denied that his ticket was against clean coal technology in America. Palin mentioned that that was exactly what he told a person in a rope line. Judge for yourself. Our friend Captain Ed at HotAir.com puts it this way:...

It was to be the best debate on television. One Sarah Palin who couldn’t say anything right, and the other Joe Biden, who kept biting his toes… But no meltdowns occurred tonight. Biden carried himself on the forcefulness of his delivery, and Palin carried herself by her photogenics and playing to the camera… Depending upon [...]

PRE-POSTSCRIPT: Drowning in the firehose of commentary about the crisis and "bailout," I can only recommend my favorites, Instapundit (Glenn Reynold) and Megan McArdle's joint. Reynold's entries are terse but frequent; McArdle's less frequent and sometimes a bit long-winded (like...
