Would be a fun project for someone with time on his hands to make up some appropriate subtitles.

Waste not, want not.

miguel cervantes: Yes, it's what the Navy guy tells his brother.
miguel cervantes: Harry Harrison wouldn't be considered new wave, I really liked his stainless steel rat, I guess Norman Spinrad would. 'Bug Jack Barron' being a particularly prescient offering,
miguel cervantes: Re; into Darkness' it seems to be a mash up of 'Khan' which is the best of the Trek films, with the unneccesary Iraq analogy, Starfleet trying to go into Khronos, the Klingon homeworld.
CK MacLeod: Did you see it or are you just going on reviews? As for BJ Barron I never got to it, but it seems to have some of the main concerns of New Wave and post-New Wave SF that game and visual-narrative media never get to or maybe can never get to.
miguel cervantes: I did an composite analysis of the reviews, I actually read Bug Jack Barron, many moons ago,
miguel cervantes: Peter Weller's Admiral Marcus, is really Enterprise's 'Colonel Green' in another uniform, and he's supposed to evoke another belligerent policy maker with a Navy background,

Notes on A Living Originalism
The purpose of this unusually long post is to review and expand upon a discussion under a set of posts by Tim Kowal and Burt Likko, who are practicing attorneys with interest in Constitutional Law, on doctrines of Constitutional interpretation. The eventual objective would be a framework for a "synthetic originalism" or "vital originalism" or "living originalism," or an Earnestly Amateurish Unified Theory of American Constitutional Governance.→
How dare you call Hayek profound?
Though Robin sometimes seems to intend to incriminate Hayek and others by association, as with the likes of Pinochet, perhaps as a way to emphasize his continued membership in good standing on the political Left, there is nothing in the core of his argument, as opposed to its trivial polemical decorations, that a Hayekian ought to find embarrassing. To the contrary, Robin attributes "profundity and daring" to Hayek and his marginal siblings. Thought through, Robin's arguments may present at least as many difficulties to a leftist, including one operating from Robin's own presumptions, as to a conservative or to a libertarian.→

Libertarianism as Core-Extreme Ideology of the Liberal Democratic State
Libertarianism is infant liberal-democracy, the arrested development of the polity fixated at the level of the pre-socialized or socialization-resistant individual - the pre-dialogical, self-sufficient, natural "I-atheist."→
