My brother-in-law arrives tomorrow morning so don’t expect much activity here for the next couple of days. I’m posting a few–or at least a couple–items that I hope are of interest.

First, an update on the Chauncey Bailey case (below). My second blog post on political cults, this time from a more personal perspective. A music post on Cuban Jazz prodigy Yasek Manzano. Lastly, some of the videos, films and dvds that I enjoyed watching in 2007.

Oh yeah, Merry Christmas to Christian readers and anyone else who celebrates Christmas.
