Foreign Accents

One of the reasons I've been so quiet of late is because I'm back teaching. I'm in the midst of compiling, updating, and writing up information for my students. This list, which some of you may find helpful, is a list of newspapers that publish English-language versions online.

This is an incomplete list of newspapers (some daily, some weekly) that appear in English. Some are official organs for their countriesâ€™ governments, although I have done my best to filter those out. Some are newspapers published by English-speaking (i.e. ex-pats) living in the these countries. Again, Iâ€™ve tried to filter those out. For the most part, these are English versions of papers that may appear in their native languages. Some are in English originally because English is one of the official languages spoken in that country.

I found most of these sites myself; some were taken from research conducted on World Newspapers, which is a good place to start.

Words to live by

Conservatives have always supported intrusive government, they have always endangered Americans by aggravating other countries, and they have always been very happy to collect taxes from ordinary working people and use that tax money to fatten the Malefactors of Great Wealth while depriving the rest of us of our freedoms. Those same people conned a number of libertarian-minded young people in the '70s and '80s into believing that conservatism was liberalism and vice-versa because a few intolerant lefties went overboard in their objections to morally reprehensible expressions of racism and sexism. I would have thought these kids would have grown up by now and realized that they're still paying taxes but under the Republicans they're getting less for them - and that's before the bill for all that "strong defense" comes due. How dumb they have to be to think it makes sense to be both Republican and gay after all this just doesn't bear thinking about.
