I am honoured to have been asked to read one of my poems at the Toronto Candlelight Vigil to mark the anniversary of this tragic event. The fact is that violence against [...]

So many things to occupy time, so little time for them to occupy. Here’s an interesting interview I came across with author Salman Rushdie For the other geeks among us, you might find PC World’s list of the Top 50 Tech Visionaries inspiring. Here, you can listen to an audio version of a Q&A between [...]

WGA Strike a “Huge Victory”!

Kiran — Mon, 11 Feb 2008 01:31:41 +0000

“Since we began negotiations in July, we’ve been saying, ‘If they get paid, we get paid.’ This contract makes that a reality. It’s the best deal this Guild has bargained for in 30 years after the most successful strike this Guild has waged in 35 years. It was arguably the most successful strike in the [...]

Stephen Colbert and the End-Of-Year Awards

Kiran — Sat, 22 Dec 2007 02:27:38 +0000

AP has selected Colbert as its Celebrity of the Year, which makes a lot more sense than the former KGB officer chosen by Time magazine. “It is truly an honor to be named the Associated Press’ Celebrity of the Year. Best of all, this makes me the official front-runner for next year’s Drug-Fueled Downward Spiral [...]

How To Be an Expert on Anything…

Kiran — Sun, 03 Sep 2006 17:39:14 +0000

Stephen Colbert imparts sage wisdom in Wired Magazine… DON’T BE AFRAID TO MAKE THINGS UP. Never fear being exposed as a fraud. Experts make things up all the time. They’re qualified to. PICK A FIELD THAT CAN’T BE VERIFIED. Try something like string theory or God’s will: “I speak to God. I’m sorry that you [...]

Albert Brooks’ new release, Looking For Comedy In The Muslim World, is looking to be a real kick in the butt. I have to say bravo to Mr. Brooks for taking on a difficult topic in what seems to be an ever-polarized world. Were you afraid Muslims may take offense to a film made by [...]
