Jon Caramanica in the New York Times dislikes HBO’s new comedy-drama, Girls, but not because of its depraved lack of morals:

“THOSE looking for hints of racial tone-deafness on the second episode of “Girls,” last Sunday on HBO, wouldn’t have been let down. In an early scene Hannah...and her nonboyfriend Adam (Adam Driver) have sex. Later Jessa (Jemima Kirke), nervously facing down an abortion, insists, “I want to have children with many different men, of different races,” as if they were trinkets to be collected, like key chains or snow globes.”

Plato Sandilands asks: why have so many critics overlooked the dangerous immorality of the show and focussed only on its racial composition?

As the first test between Australia and India entered its third day of play, the atmosphere at Chepauk was electric.  India resumed its innings this morning at none for four runs, after yesterday’s mammoth five hour stand between openers Murali Vijay and Virender Sehwag failed to add a single run to the home team’s total.  However, in a dramatic twist, due to some disastrous mistakes by Australia’s pace attack, India entered the third day with an imposing total of four extras, leaving them just eight runs shy of Australia’s once-seemingly secure total of twelve. 

The 6^th instalment of the podcast that is so beautiful, it was banned by Pope Benedict XVI – only being allowed public airing once per year by dispensation.   Or maybe we’re thinking of that other thing.  Either way, in this latest instalment of the podcast that convinced God to equip man with auditory and olfactory facilities, the boys discuss the latest Newspoll results, rumours of Julia Gillard’s imminent demise, John McTernan, Rand Paul’s filibuster and the difference between conservatives and libertarians.
