I couldn’t find it on the Internet, so here’s the full text, from page 4 of Newsweek’s May 9 edition: […] From Reuters: Blogs haven’t displaced media, U.S. study finds NEW YORK (Reuters) – Web logs, or blogs, may be a powerful new force in U.S. politics but they have not displaced traditional media in terms of information and influence, a study by the Pew Internet & American Life Project revealed on Monday. Charting the […] As disappointing as Newsweek’s error was, the magazine didn’t force anyone to riot and ransack aid offices. […] Here‘s a story I had today on Luis Posada Carriles, a former CIA asset who has admitted a series of terrorist bombings in Cuba and is the prime suspect in the 1976 bombing of a Cuban passenger airline that killed 73. Posada snuck into south Florida a few weeks ago and is now seeking asylum. […] So 1:36:57 for the Queens Half-Marathon, my best 1/2 marathon time in five years. Faded a little at the end, but not dramatically. Overall … I’ll take it! My time is a 7:24 pace (good for 369 out of 2,616 runners; 333 of 1,698 men). It’s sobering to think to qualify for Boston I’ll need […] This is clearly one of the best-ever photos of yours truly. Another from the 5K last weekend. So another day, another journalist who fabricated stories. Sacramento Bee columnist Diana Griego Erwin resigned Wednesday amid an inquiry into whether several of the people she quoted actually existed. Erwin is the fourth Sacramento Bee journalist to leave under a cloud in recent years. TV columnist Bob Wisehart was fired in April 1994 for plagarism; […] I set out to run fast this morning … and ended up doing sluggish 8:34s for the six-mile Central Park loop. Average heart-rate was a pitiful 147. That is just weak. I ran that loop on my own in training runs a few weeks at 7:30s or so, with an average heart-rate of 170ish. […] I don’t think I’ve ever really filled my readers in on my grand plan … the master plan. The master running plan. It’s a 3:10:59 marathon, a 7:17-minute-per-mile pace, fast enough to qualify for Boston. That’s been my goal for awhile now. Aside from the Olympics, Boston in the only marathon of note with a […] I found it hard to push myself again yesterday morning, but rather than turn to a treadmill on such nice evening, I opted for a run with the HoHas. I have been running on my lonesome for about four years now, since I usually work until 8 p.m. on weekdays, and most running clubs run […] The latest Carnival of the Runners is up and running and it looks good! Naomi has done a good job with it. I had a cold a few weeks ago. Why do I have one again??? Aren’t I supposed to get immunity for a while, or something? Bleah… I agreed with the Times report: We strongly believe it is no longer sufficient to argue reflexively that our work speaks for itself. In today’s media environment, such a minimal response damages our credibility. Critics, competitors and partisans can too easily caricature who we are and what we do. And loyal readers gain no solid […] Hmm. So yesterday I was out at a fire that killed a guy at Brooklyn Manor, a residential facility in East New York for the mentally ill. Only it turned out the victim was killed through his own negligence — by smoking in bed. So we just ran this small story. The Times put the […] I was a little disappointed with my time this morning –19:51 — until I checked the results and found I was 57 out of 1,981. (54 out of 926 men … only three of 1,055 women beat me, although that’s probably because most of the fast chicks were running a women’s-only half-marathon). Splits were 6:29, […] So we have a good lineup of editors for the next few Carnival of the Runners. Next week it will be hosted by Naomi, who is training for her first marathon. She mentions we should say that people can nominate others’ work, in case people are too modest to submit their own posts … I’ve […] I usually try to do my long runs on Saturday, but I work a Thursday-Sunday shift, and there’s no real reason why I can’t do ’em on Fridays. So that’s what I did today … should allow me to get in a quick 5K on Sunday. Just got back from 19.7 miles in the park. […] In the comment section of my post about the horrible Boston (212) Cafe, the administrator of the Red Sox fan site Bornintoit.com admits deleting my negative review of this basement “cafe.” Now, he is free to run his message boards any way he sees fit — but this is a pretty dishonest way to do […] First doubles of the year. A run in the morning, and a run in the evening. Well, I didn’t set out to do it this way. But I had a hard run scheduled this morning … and I sucked. I mean, I did seven miles … but it was supposed to be a hard run. […] labreque-classic Originally uploaded by derek7272.
