(For the record: I had some respiratory tract virus infection all week, peaking in dizzying 38°C+ fever last evening, but strangely, it was all gone by this morning.) *Lunatic*, n. One whose delusions are out of fashion.
Berlin's Admiralspalast theater will break new ground in May by staging the first production in Germany of the Mel Brooks musical "The Producers." Some, though, say Germany isn't ready for tap-dancing stormtroopers and a camp Hitler singing "Heil Myself." Adolf Hitler is returning to the Berlin theater where he watched "The Merry Widow" during World War II, but this time he'll be on stage, singing "Heil Myself," swinging his hips and fluttering his eyelashes in Germany's first production of Mel Brooks's celebrated musical comedy "The Producers." Some reviewers are saying the city's historic Admiralspalast theater, which until recently had a Führer's Box specifically built for Hitler, is taking a risk by staging a play featuring tap-dancing stormtroopers singing "Watch out Europe we're going on tour" in the former capital of the Third Reich.

Again, if you don't know YouTube, this might be a bit confusing. If you do know YouTube, what AP is alleging is absolutely idiotic. I'm trying to find a comparison, and I'm flummoxed. AP is publishing their videos on a Web site whose sole purpose is to show those videos for free, and then AP is enabling a feature that permits - nay, a feature whose only purpose is to have you post their videos on your own Web site - and then AP is threatening to sue anyone who does what AP has affirmatively invited you to do.Of course, AP is now threatening to sue anyone who hyperlinks to an AP story, so this kind of hyper-litigious goofiness is starting to become par for the course.
Does this mean, if I link to a AP story, say on TPM, that is a violation? Or is that only when linked directly to their site?
AP is insane. What is the point of putting your stories online if you don't allow hyperlinking? Most economists teach a theoretical framework that has been shown to be fundamentally useless. -- James K. Galbraith
Let me see if I can put this in terms... ...that I can understand, as a former movie theater manager. If I understand this correctly, this is roughly the equivalent of Paramount Pictures suing AMC for displaying "Star Trek" posters & trailers in their theaters--which are also going to be showing "Star Trek".

In a telephone interview on Wednesday, Dr. Dot told The Lede that the Georgian media and opposition were distorting the contents of her blog by taking things out of context. For instance, she said, the images of her in sexy clothing used in the Kavkasia report came from photographs of her taken to accompany her column in Penthouse magazine, and were not at all like the kind of clothes she wears during her massage work. "I wear a stupid T-shirt and sneakers 99% of the time," she said. She also added that there was nothing illicit about the massages she had given Mr. Saakashvili: "I don't shag my clients -- I didn't even bite him."
