Gerard Nolst Trenité - The Chaos (1922)
Dearest creature in creation
Studying English pronunciation,
I will teach you in my verse
Sounds like corpse, corps, horse and worse.
I will keep you, Susy, busy,
Make your head with heat grow dizzy;
Tear in eye, your dress you'll tear;
Queer, fair seer, hear my prayer.
Pray, console your loving poet,
Make my coat look new, dear, sew it!
Just compare heart, hear and heard,
Dies and diet, lord and word.

The Chinese have an interesting concept that quantifies Great Power
status, called Comprehensive National Power (CNP). This index is
produced by processing the economic, military and cultural factors that
make countries powerful: GDP, technological development, number of tanks
and ICBM’s, as well as “softer” factors such as influence on global
media and international institutions. Since I’m not a think-tank, I

Its economy, the magazine suggested, would soon overtake that of France or

Jul 24th 2008
From The Economist print edition
If America can learn from its problems, instead of blaming others, it will
come back stronger
NATIONS, like people, occasionally get the blues; and right now the United
States, normally the world’s most self-confident place, is glum. Eight out
of ten Americans think their country is heading in the wrong direction. The
hapless George Bush is partly to blame for this: his approval ratings are
