Trying a larger image format
I've been unhappy with the 600 pixel width I've been using for the images here and am now going to try using a width of 700 pixels, a little narrower than the header image (now removed).
Also I want to tighten up the page headers to get the whole image displayed above the fold. I think that would make much better looking page.

Politics and the English Language
....Political language -- and with variations this is true of all political parties, from Conservatives to Anarchists -- is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind. One cannot change this all in a moment, but one can at least change one's own habits, and from time to time one can even, if one jeers loudly enough, send some worn-out and useless phrase -- some jackboot, Achilles' heel, hotbed, melting pot, acid test, veritable inferno, or other lump of verbal refuse -- into the dustbin, where it belongs.
