From the New York Times: Joran van der Sloot, the Dutchman who became notorious as the prime suspect in the disappearance of an 18-year-old Alabama woman in Aruba in 2005, pleaded guilty in a Lima courtroom on Wednesday to the 2010 murder of a Peruvian woman he met at a casino. The case of the American woman, Natalee Holloway, who vanished during a senior class trip, remains unresolved despite being the subject of several books and television programs, as well as many lurid tabloid headlines over the years. The Peruvian woman, Stephany Flores, 21, was strangled in a Lima hotel room five years to the day after Ms. Holloway's disappearance. "I am truly sorry for this act," Mr. van der Sloot told the judges on Wednesday, according to The Associated Press. He bowed his head as his lawyer argued that he had killed Ms. Flores in a state of "extreme psychological trauma" brought on because he was "persecuted" during the Holloway investigation. Prosecutors have asked for a 30-year sentence.
There's a partial transcript of Van Der Sloot's confession here. Basically he caught her reading an email on his PC, elbowed her in the nose and strangled her to death.
It appears he was psychotically paranoid, and that could be related to the torrent of accusations that he murdered Natalee Holloway. Or, it could just as easily be evidence that he is pathologically violent when it comes to young women.

Fuck the Fat Acceptance Movement

Ms. Drive recently wrote a diary entry on the Fat Acceptance Movement, which is the movement that promotes obesity as not only normal, but healthy. To quote Ms. Drive, "There is no reliable evidence at all that carrying the equivalent of a grown man (or more) in pure fat on your body might put your heart under strain or be bad for you." Sorry Holly, but that's bullshit. Heart disease is the number one killer in America, even worse than lung cancer, and what is the number one cause of heart disease? Obesity. That there is a movement that promotes obesity as an acceptable lifestyle to our nation's children is no less disgusting than the tobacco companies' attempts to advertise cigarettes to children. When I responded to those candy cigarettes they sold in ice cream trucks with "Fuck the tobacco companies!", I made many enemies, but I was vindicated when scientists proved that smoking is unhealthy. I expect to suffer the same outrage but also enjoy the same vindication by my next statement: Fuck the Fat Acceptance Movement!

Who Will Win the Upcoming "Class War" in America?

When I heard news of Obama's "tax the rich" plan my first thought was "is it even legal to tax the rich in the USA today?" During the Bush Administration the wealthiest 5% of Americans got a $580 billion tax cut, live far more luxurious lives than the normal citizens, and have gotten a free ride for so long it's almost inconceivable...tax them? Hard even for Democrats to imagine it appears, since the last thing Obama said was look ""This is not class warfare. It's math." This is playing into the American right's anti-government rhetoric, and I believe the President made a serious blunder by putting it that way.
Instead, Obama should try to make it very clear what exactly his plans really are and why we need the rich to pay for these programs. Even if he does, chances are the current band of extremely anti-state conservatives in congress will do everything in its power to block the increases. OTOH, if he succeeds Obama might well get re-elected: killing a $1.3 trillion deficit largely inherited from the Bush administration's reckless spending is an epic "war" indeed.

9/11 + 10: America still impotent, rapidly forgetting

Ten years and a day ago, on September 10th 2001, America was hot shit. Our military maintained bases across the planet, and our fleets of supercarrier-backed battle groups maintained our dominance across the world's oceans.
Then 9/11 happened, and the world learned that Big Stud Uncle Sam was completely impotent. Just like a body-builder whose testicles shriveled up from decades of steroid use, America's trillion-dollar-a-year defense industry was completely flaccid when we were attacked with 19 box-cutters.
No matter how many brown people we kill in the Forever War, America will never get its mojo back.
However, 10 years has given us enough perspective to say one thing for sure: while an impotent bodybuilder can take a blue pill to perform, not even Energy Viagra can help with gangrene of the nation's horsecock.
