With Jobs out as CEO at Apple, does anyone expect Apple to do anything more than release standard updates of iPods, iPhones and iPads?
I expect Apple’s products 10 years from now will look a lot like they do today–with standard, industry driven updates–and the company will have a bigger bureaucracy.
But, I could be wrong. It would be nice if I am wrong.
I don’t know much about Jobs. Like most of us, he seems to have his failings, quirks and weaknesses. Most people call him a great designer. I think of his talent differently. He seems to have a knack for identifying problems so subtle that few people even knew they existed and drawing on unconventional sources and creativity to solve them. Then again, maybe that’s exactly what a great designer is.
Rarely do I defend politicians. I’m not sure this is a defense.
It’s more of a correction, or maybe clarification on one distinction between conservative and libertarian thinking.
I’ve often heard Ron Paul’s “foreign policy” referred to by conservatives as “isolationist“. My local conservative talk show hosts are guilty of this charge. I’ve heard Dennis Miller do it repeatedly — even though he often interviews Ron and Rand Paul on his show and each time Miller calls Paul an isolationist, they correct him.
I’ve heard that exchange now three or four times in the past year, with the latest being Miller’s interview with Rand just before the Iowa debates (I believe it was around August 10, available on iTunes). I listened to it today.
He’s a little isolationist for me, but on everything else he makes a lot of sense.
Rand Paul replied:
The foreign policy isn’t isolationism, it’s just that we should not go to war without declaring it formally, you know, like the Constitution intended.
I’ve also heard Ron tell Miller that he is not isolationist. He said he support individuals trading with other individuals in other countries. He just doesn’t think we ought to use our military beyond what it was meant to do — defend us.
I’m waiting for Miller to stop the flow of the show for a minute or two and ask one of them, Okay, maybe I have it wrong. Can you explain to me how it is that you are not isolationist? I’m not sure that has occurred to him to do that yet. I’m also not sure it has occurred to Miller that perhaps he doesn’t know what isolationism is.
I’ve heard others do it. (Full disclosure: I might have done it a few years ago).
I think part of it is the conservative way to discount Paul and distance themselves from appearing to agree with a fringe candidate (we had this same struggle with identity when we went from liberal to conservative).
I think another part of it is, like Miller, conservatives don’t know what isolationism is and they haven’t thought much about when we should use our military and what the Constitution says about that.
Most modern “liberals” believe that domestic economic problems are caused chiefly by unsavory characters – “business people” – who impose their destructive rule on masses of innocent workers and consumers yearning for more prosperity, and that the best solution to these problems is government force deployed using armies of regulators to subdue these bad guys and to keep close watch over them and their successors. Failure to intervene is immoral. These same “liberals,” though, believe that foreign problems are typically the result of complex forces that can be understood only poorly by American-government officials; it is naïve to suppose that even well-intentioned foreign intervention by Uncle Sam will not have regrettable unintended consequences.
Most modern conservatives believe that domestic economic problems are typically the result of complex forces that can be understood only poorly by government officials; it is naïve to suppose that even well-intentioned economic intervention by Uncle Sam will not have regrettable unintended consequences. These same conservatives, though, believe that problems in foreign countries are caused chiefly by unsavory characters – “dictators” or “tyrants” – who impose their destructive rule on masses of innocent people yearning for more democracy, and that the best solution to these problems is government force deployed with armies of soldiers to subdue these bad guys and to keep close watch over them and their successors. Failure to intervene is immoral.
In his book, The Secret Knowledge, David Mamet gives a brief and apt explanation of the economic term moral hazard, which played a key role in causing the financial crisis.
This is from a footnote on page 187 (emphasis added):
Is it not evident that any organization believing itself to be “too big to fail,” will more likely, indeed, inevitably make disastrous decisions? Why should it not–it is Too Big to Fail.
We all know people who (and perhaps have experienced this of ourselves), at one time or another, began to believe that their own s**t did not stink. And we all know how that story ended. Not well.
Our last financial crises could be called the my-s**t-don’t-stink crisis.
Also, we should remember how those stories end whenever our “experts”, politicians and economists tell us that such-and-such an industry or company is too important and cannot be allowed to fail (though it usually already has, and few people recognize it yet).
Even though the video has made its rounds on other blogs, I had to post it here because I think it’s really good. I credit Speedmaster at The Pretense of Knowledge for directing me to it.
It’s called Top 3 Common Myths of Capitalism from Jeff Miron of Harvard.
Myth 1: Being pro-capitalism is the same as being pro-business.
The point of capitalism is to make sure that businesses have to be compete vigorously against each other. That benefits consumers.
It’s not good for the businesses, per se, because they have to work really hard. Many businesses understand this and they hate capitalism. They’re constantly trying to get government erect various rules, restrictions, regulations that help them, but they are not in the interest of the consumers [though they will say otherwise].
I believe one cause of this myth is that many people don’t fundamentally know what capitalism is.
Just this morning I heard radio DJs criticizing capitalism. Yet, they were really criticizing disingenuous commercialization. On that I agree with them. That bugs me too. Other things bug me. Whiny millionaire football players, cheesy car salesmen and endless customer service touch tone menus are not my faves. But these aren’t capitalism either.
These have emerged from capitalism. So have many other things. Things that I like and love and have made my life better than my ancestors and even better than my younger days. On net, we all come out far ahead.
And, I know that I can turn the channel when it shows whiny football players, I can find a professional car salesmen and I’ve noticed those phone menus getting better.
I also noticed that those DJs didn’t criticize their advertisers.
Another cause of Myth 1 is that few people differentiate between profits earned by capitalism, through competition, and those earned by rent-seeking or politics.
We need to get better at asking if the profit came from providing valuable products that people voluntarily buy or rent-seeking or politics?
For example, sugar tariffs increase the price consumers pay for sugar and results in a higher profit for domestic sugar companies. Those higher profits are passed to domestic sugar companies directly from consumers. Those sugar companies should thank their friends in government. They do.
Without the tariff, sugar and things made of sugar, would cost less and we would spend our savings on something else that could make our lives even better and create more jobs. That’s rent-seeking. It’s anti-capitalist and anti-consumer. But is viewed by most folks as capitalism itself.
Myth 2: Capitalism results in an unfair distribution of income.
Miron explains that capitalism rewards people based on what they contribute and produce and admits that a downside to capitalism…
…is that some people have very little skill. They are not able to earn very much, left on their own. Some reasonable people support anti-poverty spending, but that’s completely different than interfering with capitalism–regulating prices, limiting quantities, etc — those make the economy less productive, give us a smaller pie and makes it harder for us to operate programs that help those who are less fortunate.
I’d add that the anti-poverty spending does not have to be (nor is it an enumerated power) conducted by the Federal government.
Myth 3: Capitalism was responsible for the recent financial crisis and recession.
Miron explains that we didn’t have unbridled capitalism in housing prior to the meltdown.
We had enormous government interventions — subsidized risk, encouraged over investment in housing. If one is going to draw a conclusion, it seems to suggest much more clearly that interfering with capitalism generates financial crises…
…because what happened was a result of the market distortions created by government interference.
This goes back to causes of Myth 1, primarily that people do not know what capitalism is. People see private, for-profit companies operating in the housing and mortgage industry and stop there assuming that’s capitalism.
They don’t understand that those private companies — and private individuals — were responding to incentives distorted by government.
Consider Speedmaster’s example. If we believe owning a Porsche cause folks to become well-off (which it doesn’t), then government will do things (distort incentives) to make it easier for people to buy Porshes.
Government can tell banks to not worry about lending on Porsches, because if anything happens, the government will help out. Government sends subsidies to Porsche to encourage them to produce more cars (though they don’t have the capacity to keep up with demand caused by the incentives distorted by government).
Porsche prices rise from the increasing demand. People buy more because it seems like, even if you can’t afford one, you can sell it two or three months later for a profit. Why buy just one? Buy two, maybe three.
It’s not hard to imagine what happens next. First, few will have achieved success by simply becoming a Porsche owners. The original thinking was flawed.
Second, prices rise well beyond normal, capitalism-driven, prices for awhile as everybody gets one or two.
Then they look around and wonder, who’s going to buy my Porsche? Everyone seems to have one of their own now (which also makes it uncool). They realize they can’t afford to keep it (plus it’s suddenly uncool), so they panic and rush to sell it before anyone else realizes what’s going on. Supply skyrockets relative to demand. Prices collapse. Everyone says this was capitalism’s last hurrah and governments pays off loans with taxpayers money and becomes the proud owner of millions of Porsches.
Thanks to W.E. Heasley of The Last Embassy for providing a link to this article from the American Enterprise Institute’s magazine, The American. The article is titled, Obama’s Folly: Why Taxing the Rich is No Solution.
I enjoyed this article because it’s a good example of a well-argued position. The authors do a fine job of properly characterizing their opponents’ argument that the wealthy should pay more taxes. They don’t resort to inaccurate straw men. We could make much progress with debate in this country if more people could do this. That would be a great course to add to our public education curriculum–how to accurately characterize your opponent’s position.
The authors also provide many valid points for their opposition to consider and none of it is about coddling the rich.
Their examination of the numbers should be sobering to the tax the rich folks:
According to the New York Times, the president’s plan to abolish the Bush tax cuts for those making more than $250,000 is expected to bring in merely $0.7 trillion over the next decade, or about 0.4 percent of Gross Domestic Product per year. As a comparison, the Congressional Budget Office estimates that the deficit over the same period is going to be $13 trillion, more than 6 percent of GDP per year.
If this is accurate, then it alone should end the debate. Focusing so much attention on taxing the rich brings to mind the old saying to be penny wise but pound foolish.
Next, the authors address what has become a popular argument put forth by a member of President Obama’s advisory board, Laura Tyson, and published in The New York Times:
The most common fallacy repeated by Tyson is that taxes do not matter because the economy was booming during the Clinton years even though taxes went up.
They go on to point out that the 90s had other economic events as well — NAFTA, welfare reform and the Internet boom — to name a few.
I’ll add that in 1997 significant reductions were made in the capital gains tax rates for assets held more than one year (source), so not all tax rates for the wealthy increased. I’ll also add that much of the increase in tax revenue in the last part of the 90s came from capital gains taxes.
The authors correctly point out:
Instead of picking one historic event that happens to fit your preferred theory, a more reasonable approach is to investigate all historical periods where taxes increased or decreased.
This has been done by former Obama advisor Christina Romer and her husband David Romer. They also take into account the causes of tax increases.1 They find that tax increases tend to reduce economic growth, stating that “tax increases appear to have a very large, sustained, and highly significant negative impact on output,” as “an exogenous tax increase of one percent of GDP lowers real GDP by almost three percent.” Similar results have been obtained by Harvard economist Alberto Alesina using a different methodology.2
I don’t trust studies like that of the Romers. However, their finding is not surprising. It’s called incentive effects and believe it or not, they exist. Believe it or not, you respond to them everyday of your life, whether you realize it or not.
But other people put more stock into statistical studies. Many of those people also think we should raise taxes on the rich. So, the Romers’ studies and the other economic events of the 90s should at least give those people something to consider.
I also appreciate the authors’ encouragement to look at more than one data point on which to draw our conclusions. That’s great advice. When someone does that, or when you do it yourself, your skepticism should rise.
Here’s why. Do you think it would be tough to find one data that says the opposite? I doubt it.
I appreciate actual experience over conjecture. But to focus on a single time period and neglect other important factors (like the reduction in capital gains tax rates) is not good practice.
Former Governor of New Mexico, Gary Johnson, provides an example of what I prefer to hear from politicians.
Regarding the high rate of job creation in New Mexico while he was governor, Johnson said:
I didn’t create a single job.
We are proud of this distinction. We had a 11.6 percent job growth that occurred during our two terms in office. But the headlines that accompanied that report – referring to governors, including me, as ‘job creators’ – were just wrong.
The fact is, I can unequivocally say that I did not create a single job while I was governor
…we kept government in check, the budget balanced, and the path to growth clear of unnecessary regulatory obstacles.
My priority was to get government out of the way, keep it out of the way, and allow hard-working New Mexicans, entrepreneurs and businesses to fulfill their potential.
That’s how government can encourage job growth, and that’s what government needs to do today.
I wish more people preferred to hear this from their elected officials.
In The Wall Street Journal today, Former American Express Chairman Harvey Golub expressed his disagreement with Buffett’s desire to increase taxes on him and many others less well off than himself.
Golub makes several points worth considering. Here’s one point that is usually glossed over in this debate (emphasis added):
Almost half of all filers pay no income taxes at all. Clearly they earn less and should pay less. But they should pay something and have a stake in our government spending their money too.
It sets up a bad incentive structure when some voters pay no income tax. It costs them nothing (directly, and they may benefit directly) to vote for politicians who grow government. The bad incentive structure is illustrated well by the old cliche, it’s like two wolves and pig voting to decide what’s for dinner. Having more voters pay something for government with their hard earned dollars might cause more voters to hold politicians accountable for spending their money wisely.
Golub also questions how wisely elected officials spend our money. Decades ago Milton Friedman pointed out that we spend money least carefully when we spend other peoples’ money on other people. That is government spending.
Golub asks questions that are rarely asked in the mainstream:
Governments have an obligation to spend our tax money on programs that work. They fail at this fundamental task [because of Milton Friedman’s observation]. Do we really need dozens of retraining programs with no measure of performance or results? Do we really need to spend money on solar panels, windmills and battery-operated cars when we have ample energy supplies in this country? Do we really need all the regulations that put an estimated $2 trillion burden on our economy by raising the price of things we buy? Do we really need subsidies for domestic sugar farmers and ethanol producers?
Why do we require that public projects pay above-market labor costs? Why do we spend billions on trains that no one will ride? Why do we keep post offices open in places no one lives? Why do we subsidize small airports in communities close to larger ones? Why do we pay government workers above-market rates and outlandish benefits? Do we really need an energy department or an education department at all?
Galub ends on this note:
Before you “ask” for more tax money from me and others, raise the $2.2 trillion you already collect each year more fairly and spend it more wisely. Then you’ll need less of my money.
David Mamet’s The Secret Knowledge: The Dismantling of American Culture came up in my queue at the library. It’s good to have a talented writer on the side of freedom and recognize deeply that is the side he is on, now.
Early, on page 8, Mamet explains the primary motivation of the U.S. Constitution:
As I began reading and thinking about politics, I saw, to my horror, how easily people could also assemble themselves into a mob, which would either attract or be called into being by those who profited from the surrender of reason and liberty–and that these people are called politicians. My question, then, was, as we cannot live without Government, how must we deal with those who will be inclined to abuse it–the politicians and their manipulators? The answer to that question, I realized, was attempted in the U.S. Constitution–a document based not upon the philosophic assumption that people are basically good, but on the tragic confession of the opposite view.
It took some time after learning about the Constitution in my publicly provided education for me to understand its true purpose. I crossed the border to Mexico once early in my life and wondered why the standard of living–separated only by a few hundred feet–could be so different.
I eventually came to realize that the answer was deeply embedded in American culture and embodied in the purpose of the Constitution–to prevent a person, or groups of people, from gaining too much political power over the rest of us. It was an insurance policy against tyranny.
Too bad we forgot that (though we seem to be relearning it as groups of people use government to extend their reach into our lives).

The U.S. Postal Service has issued a stamp celebrating NASA’s new James Webb Space Telescope. As the world’s premier space science observatory, Webb is the largest, most powerful, and most complex science telescope ever put in space. The stamp, which features an illustration of the observatory, was dedicated in a ceremony on Thursday, September 8, at the Smithsonian’s National Postal Museum in Washington.
“When anyone who uses these stamps looks at this telescope, I want them to see what I see: its incredible potential to reveal new and unexpected discoveries that help us understand the origins of the universe, and our place in it,” said NASA Associate Administrator Bob Cabana. “This telescope is the largest international space science program in U.S. history, and I can’t wait to see the scientific breakthroughs it will enable in astronomy.”
Webb, a mission led by NASA in partnership with ESA (European Space Agency) and CSA (Canadian Space Agency), launched on December 25, 2021, from Kourou – Europe’s Spaceport in French Guiana. Over the following months, Webb traveled to its destination at the second Lagrange point nearly one million miles (1.5 million kilometers) away from Earth, underwent weeks of complex deployments to unfold into its final configuration, and prepared its mirrors and science instruments to capture never-before-seen views of the universe.
On July 12, NASA released Webb’s first full-color images and spectra, providing a first look at the observatory’s powerful capabilities. The U.S. Postal Service stamp honors these achievements as Webb continues its mission to explore the unknown in our universe and study every phase in cosmic history.
“I am excited to add this beautiful stamp to our collection, as we watch from the ground as humanity’s newest and most capable telescope unlocks the greatest secrets of our cosmos that have been waiting to be revealed since the beginning of time,” said Thomas Zurbuchen, associate administrator for NASA’s Science Mission Directorate. “The Webb Telescope represents the start to a new era of what we can accomplish for the benefit of all.”
The stamp features a stunning artist’s digital illustration of Webb against a background of stars. The selvage around each set of stamps showcases a sharp image of a star, captured while setting up the telescope in space to confirm the precise alignment of Webb’s 18 hexagonal mirror segments.

Pound Sterling Euro Exchange Rate Stuck around Opening Levels as Think Tank Warns Wage Growth will Remain below Price Growth
The Pound Euro currency pairing is currently trending negatively around opening levels at 1.12.
Today’s pay growth warning, from the Resolution Foundation, is weighing on Sterling, as markets remain uneasy over the outlook for the UK’s dominant service sector.
Torsten Bell, Director of the Foundation, explained that ‘while the public have famously defied recent gloomy economic predictions and continued to spend, public expectations do appear to be moving in line with experts’ pessimistic predictions. Over half expect no pay rise next year and households are just as likely to expect their financial situation to get worse as improve next year.’
Focus on Approaching US Data Boosts Euro (EUR) Versus Pound Sterling
Key US consumer confidence data is set for release this afternoon and represents the only high-impact data on the economic calendar today.
This is helping support the Euro; not only because markets are unwilling to buy into the US Dollar ahead of the release, but also because the figures are forecast to show a slight weakening of sentiment.
Also helping to push EUR exchange rates higher is this morning’s Spanish retail sales figures for November, which have greatly beaten forecasts both on the month and on the year.
Monthly sales growth recovered from a -0.8% contraction to grow 1.3% last month, while the pace of annual sales increased from 0.3% to 2% – beating forecasts by 1% and 1.3% respectively.
Pound Losses Versus Euro Contained by Lack of Greek Confidence ahead of Bailout Exit
While the Euro has found some support today, its advance against the Pound is being restrained by news that Greek citizens are not feeling overly confidence as the country nears its exit from its third international bailout.
Greece is due to finish the latest bailout programme in August, theoretically marking the end of seven years of austerity measures, but ordinary Greeks are reluctant to buy into the claims of Alexis Tsipras’ government that the country can exit the programme cleanly.
Less than a fifth (17%) of respondents polled believed the government’s claim that Greece can wean itself off of international financial assistance by issuing new government debt on the bond market.
Over 66% of those asked believed Greek finances would still be subject to some form of international monitoring once the latest bailout programme has been concluded.
Pound Euro Exchange Rate Forecast to Remain Soft as ECB Releases Economic Bulletin
The Pound Sterling to Euro exchange rate is likely to drift lower tomorrow, thanks to the presence of more impactful data on the Eurozone and US data calendars than the UK’s.
While UK mortgage approvals figures are due for release, these could be overshadowed by the European Central Bank’s (ECB) latest Economic Bulletin release.
The forecast for Eurozone monetary policy looks gloomy as of now, but unexpected signs of optimism regarding the inflationary outlook from the ECB could help improve expectations and therefore boost EUR to the detriment of GBP.
The GBP/EUR currency pairing could also come under pressure thanks to the scheduled publication of the US advance goods trade balance for November; as with today’s confidence figures, the approach of this release could deter investors from adjusting their USD positions, allowing the Euro to make gains.

Aran Accessories - Máirín from the Aran Islands
Máirín is a knitter from the Aran Islands who combines traditional elements of Aran knitting (e.g. cables, lattice work) with more modern techniques, such as seamless knitting, to create her own original designs. We discovered Máirín's adorable Aran knit bookmarks on our recent rambles around Ireland and we contacted her immediately.

Michael and Mark are two bearded men from Belfast with a passion for scent. We chose their Gorse candle as we are surrounded by this gorgeous plant here in West Kerry and the smell of it evokes the most wonderful memories of our childhood! It's the most brilliant way to bring a little bit of the Dingle Peninsula to subscribers in a MyIrelandBox!

Moneypox vaccinations in San Francisco kick into high gear as more doses become available
SAN FRANCISCO - Monkeypox vaccinations in San Francisco shifted into high gear on Tuesday where the city began to distribute approximately 10,000 doses it received from the federal government.
"Too many people are suffering in our communities," said a speaker to monkeypox advocates. "They are begging for relief."
As of Tuesday, the city reported 501 probable and confirmed cases of monkeypox; 1,310 cases statewide.
Vaccine seekers were lined up around the block at San Francisco General Hospital Tuesday morning to get the shot.
The city said it doesn't know how long the new supply will last as the week wears on. San Francisco Department of Public Health reported the hospital walk-in clinic administered 750 doses on Tuesday.
"I'm a little worried. I have to go into work later this morning. I told my manager 'Hey, I'm getting my vaccine in the morning,' but I didn't know the line would be this long," said vaccine seeker Chris Leechock.
"It kind of came out of nowhere. So, I'm glad they're doing something now to get a lot of doses. This is my first attempt to get a shot so, here we are," said another vaccine seeker.
Among those prioritized are men or trans people who have had sex with more than one sexual partner in the last two weeks, and who haven't received their first dose. Others who are now eligible for the two-dose Jynneos vaccine include, any sex workers of any sexual orientation and people who have had close contact with someone with either a suspected or confirmed case of monkeypox in the last two weeks. Other groups eligible for the vaccine are people who were notified by a venue of a potential exposure in the last two weeks and lab workers or clinicians who have performed monkeypox testing or who have handled specimens.
Experts say there are two things potential patients can curb the spread, including self-restraint.
"Understand what they're doing, what they can do to prevent getting infected, and that we can hopefully get vaccines in their arms to prevent them from getting the disease," said UC Berkeley infectious disease expert Dr. John Swartzberg.
"I'm just glad that we live where we do so we can get the vaccine now or at least many of us, hopefully, more very soon," said Darin Allan who stood last in line.
In Sacramento, the Senate Select Committee On Monkeypox Oversight met and said, "Over 1,300 cases here in California. About 2% of those are hospitalized, and we have seen our first few pediatric cases and our first few female cases."
"Monkeypox is a public health emergency, and we need to do everything we can to contain the outbreak," State Senator Scott Wiener of San Francisco said in a statement. "Monkeypox is a painful and serious infection, and no one should have to endure it. We need to ensure California's response, at both the state and local level, is effective and adequately funded. Our community is depending on us to deliver."
Many testifying said due to strict rules and red tape, treating patients takes far too long.
"He has to spend, two hours filling out paperwork and jumping through hoops with the CDC [Centers for Disease Control and Prevention], to get permission to give these pills to the person suffering that could take days," said Wiener, chairman of the committee.

Officials said the State of California has received about 109,000 doses of the vaccine. On Tuesday, the Food and Drug Administration authorized smaller doses of the vaccine to stretch the current limited supply. People can now receive a shot with 20% of the usual dose and still be vaccinated against monkeypox. The new injection approach calls for administering the shot just under the skin rather than into deeper tissue. People would still get two shots spaced four weeks apart.
Wiener believes the federal government could have done more to keep up its stockpile of the Jynneos vaccine, a smallpox vaccine that's proven to be effective for monkeypox. Over 20 million vaccine doses expired without replacement, he said at Tuesday's meeting.
"You would think that would be a recipe for very quickly controlling an outbreak. Unfortunately, due to some very severe public health failures over a number of years and three different presidential administrations, that has not happened and we have shot ourselves in the foot," he said.
San Francisco makes up 36% of all monkeypox diagnoses in California, according to Dr. Grant Colfax, Director of Health for the City and County of San Francisco.
Though in the wake of the recent COVID-19 pandemic, monkeypox is not a new disease, and it's rarely deadly. But it can cause severe pain, scarring and hospitalization, said health care workers sharing their experiences at the meeting.
Many patients are experiencing fever, malaise, muscle aches, and a pox-like rash with fluid-filled vesicles on the skin, said Vivek Jain, associate professor of Medicine and Infectious Diseases at University of California San Francisco. Eventually the lesions heal and the rash will crust over, but the process can take weeks, he said.
"Many patients have many lesions, and some of our patients are unfortunately experiencing very severe pain in the throat and the pharynx, or at the rectum and the genitals," Jain said. "This is truly causing a tremendous degree of suffering, including difficulty with eating or drinking fluids and very severe difficulties with having bowel movements."
Jain says California can do four things to improve its response to the monkeypox epidemic - fund front-end clinical locations like urgent care centers, STD clinics and emergency departments, make access to medicine easier for patients, provide more research on how to test and treat monkeypox, and provide patients temporary places to stay to get better.
LGBTQ+ advocacy groups like the San Francisco Aids Foundation are also stepping in to amplify and disseminate vital information - both to prevent the spread of the virus and its stigma. CEO Tyler TerMeer wants to ensure that the LGBTQ+ community does not experience same discrimination it faced amid the AIDS crisis in the '80s.
"For two and a half years our public health systems have been developing, improving and self-healing to combat the worst global pandemic in a century," said TerMeer. "And yet, when confronted with the new outbreak in May of this year, federal health agencies failed to treat this threat with the urgency and commitment that it clearly demanded."
TerMeer pointed the finger at a combination of "misjudgment, mismanagement and miscommunication" that left state and local health agencies without the resources that they needed to adequately prepare and respond.
The city has already administered close to 12,000 vaccine doses, and it has the capacity to vaccinate 3,000 people a day at over 15 vaccination sites. But in order to fully vaccinate individuals considered to be high-risk, the city will need about 150,000 vaccines, said Colfax.
The Monkeypox Clinic at SF General will be open every day this week from 8 a.m. through noon with extended hours on Saturday from 8 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. Sutter Health, Kaiser and UCSF are offering the vaccine through appointments.

The 3,700-bed hospital opened on May 14 to treat Covid-19 patients with mild to severe symptoms in Bangkok and its vicinity. It treated a total of 20,436 patients during the 130 days it was open, Kittisak said.
“In the early days after opening, the hospital admitted about 100 patients per day. At the peak of the delta variant contagion in July, the hospital saw 300-400 patients per day,” said Kittisak. “However, new infections in Bangkok have continually decreased in recent days, with only 5-6 people being admitted to the hospital daily since September.”
“Thanks to the lockdown measures, working-from-home approach, and the new strategy of sending new patients with mild or no symptoms into home isolation or community isolation, public and private hospitals in Bangkok and surrounding provinces are no longer overwhelmed, and we no longer need this field hospital,” added Kittisak.
“I would like to thank all personnel who have been working at Bussarakham for their hard work that ultimately helped improve the country’s Covid-19 situation,” he said.

This Morning has apologised after accidentally showing an uncensored cover of the Italian magazine that pictured a pregnant Duchess of Cambridge in a bikini on holiday on the private Caribbean island of Mustique.
A statement was read out by host Eamonn Holmes later in the programme:
Earlier during today's news review we were discussing photographs of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge on a beach in Mustique published in an Italian magazine.
Unfortunately we accidentally showed an unblurred image of the magazine cover, which briefly showed the photographs.
This was a deeply regrettable error and we are very sorry.
We apologise unreservedly to the Duke and the Duchess.

Google isn't out of the privacy woods yet though. Just as things began to go well in Germany, South Korean police raided Google's local offices. The investigation is ongoing and involves Google's mishaps with collecting private wifi information. Any number of European countries are also set to get involved in the controversy, since the data collection almost certainly violates EU regulations. France, Germany, Italy, and Spain are already in the mix.
All of that said, there's definitely a degree to which people are getting a little bit too paranoid over Google. Example: a Google executive with an interest in aerial robotics recently bought a drone to play with, becauseyou knowlhe's interested in aerial robotics. Rumors immediately started to spread about how Google was dispatching drones to circle over urban population centers and take pictures for Street View. "Street View fleet could soon take to the air," screamed the Telegraph, moronically.

Transportation Security Administration screeners at U.S. airports are facing their first missed paychecks as an impasse between President Donald Trump and lawmakers over funding for a new barrier at the U.S. border extends what is already one of the longest-ever government shutdowns.
The some 51,000 TSA officers have been working without an idea of when their next paycheck would arrive since the shutdown began Dec. 22.
Airport representatives and air traffic controllers are fretting about the prolonged closure.
"Federal staffing and other resource shortfalls brought on by this shutdown threaten existing and new air service to communities across the country, harming air travelers, businesses, and regional economies all over America," the Airports Council International trade group wrote in Jan. 8 letter to Trump, Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. "A true national crisis would develop if we cripple the U.S. aviation system in this manner."
Airlines for America, a trade group that represents several carriers, including American Airlines, United Airlines and FedEx, said that some companies are already seeing the impact from the shutdown "specifically regarding certification of new aircraft and the implementation of new training programs for pilots, as well as training for air traffic controllers and other aviation employees."
Air traffic controllers and flight attendants are scheduled to protest the shutdown near the Capitol in Washington on Thursday afternoon.
The TSA workers are among the roughly 420,000 federal employees deemed essential who must work through the shutdown, but without pay. That also includes more than 14,000 air traffic controllers.
"It must end," Doug Church, a spokesman for the National Air Traffic Controllers Association, the union that represents more than 14,000 U.S. air traffic controllers, said of the shutdown. "Aviation is not a political issue."
The TSA acknowledged that slightly more of its officers were calling out sick this year than last year but said it was not disrupting air travel.
"There has been no degradation in security effectiveness and average wait times are well within TSA standards," the agency said in a statement. "We are grateful to our officers for continuing to carry out the mission of securing the transportation system during this period."
Some of the workers are preparing to miss at least one paycheck.
"No one wants to miss a check. One is too many," said one three-year TSA officer at LaGuardia Airport in New York who asked that his name not be used because he was not authorized to speak to reporters. He said he would use savings to pay rent for the apartment in Queens he shares with his parents.
Another officer at LaGuardia said his landlord in the Bronx is allowing him to pay his rent late and "has been understanding." He said it is more difficult to negotiate with his credit card and cellphone service. He said he is not planning to quit the TSA but said he would consider getting a side job to make ends meet.

Kate Middleton is “saddened” that her name has been thrust into the spotlight following the release of Omid Scobie’s latest tell-all book, according to a report.
In the Dutch translation of Scobie’s biography, “Endgame: Inside the Royal Family and the Monarchy’s Fight for Survival,” the names of two senior royals who allegedly made a “racist” comment about the skin color of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s son were revealed.
The royals who allegedly made the remarks were unmasked this week as King Charles and the Princess of Wales — a claim that has not been confirmed by Scobie nor the royal family.
Still, Princess Kate has reportedly been left upset that her name is being mentioned in the conversation about racism.
“Kate was 100 percent not one of the people who discussed it,” a source told Us Weekly. “She is saddened that her name got pulled into this because she had nothing to do with it.”

Protected critical infrastructure information at risk in DHS data stores, IG report says
Dark Reading Staff, Dark Reading
July 8, 2011
4 Min Read
Some of the federal government's most critical agencies are falling down on database security with misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, and a lack of best practices, putting sensitive citizen and defense information at risk as a result, new government audits show. Just this week, the Office of the Inspector General (IG) found that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) -- the agency in charge of ensuring Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) compliance among all government agencies -- itself has a number of critical shortcomings within its database defenses.
The new report (PDF) highlighted database security deficiencies within the protected critical infrastructure information (PCII) system data stores, with weaknesses in both the Automated Critical Asset Management System (ACAMS) and the Linking Encrypted Network System (LENS) that put PCII data at risk. Some of the problems highlighted in the report included a failure to follow the rule of least privilege, a lack of communication among personnel to decide who was in charge of locking down the database, and a number of redacted configuration vulnerabilities.
"We all have this sense of concern that develops when the people responsible for keeping us secure are not keeping themselves secure," says John Verry, principal consultant for Pivot Point Security. "I would be hesitant to make an assertion about something I am not directly familiar with -- we haven't done work for DHS, and they may have picked the one database that was wildly insecure. But typically what we find [when] we do enterprisewide database security assessments is that if one database is relatively insecure, most of them will be, and if one database tends to be reasonably secure, most of them will be."
The DHS isn't the only agency under fire from auditors. A recent report (PDF) from the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA) found that the IRS has some serious problems with the security of nearly all of its 2,200 databases. Even though the agency has spent $1.1 million on database security tools recently, it has not completed the implementation of tools and requisite best practices to make them effective.
“As all government databases are becoming favored targets of hackers, the importance of protecting IRS databases cannot be overstated,” said TIGTA Inspector General J. Russell George, in a statement. “Any failure to maintain IRS databases with the right amount of security diligence can allow disgruntled insiders or malicious outsiders to exploit security weaknesses to gain unauthorized access to taxpayer data, resulting in identity theft, fraud, or other types of illegal activity.”
TIGTA made a number of recommendations to improve IRS database security, but some experts believe it needed to go further than what it laid out.
"Periodic scanning of databases for vulnerabilities, unpatched and legacy systems, determining excessive rights, and having a documented plan for ongoing assessment and remediation is a good first step, but the IRS should also be implementing the highest levels of security monitoring around their databases," says Mel Shakir, CTO of NitroSecurity. "TIGTA and the IRS should be thinking of correlating vulnerability scan results with every action/access performed against the taxpayer data and profiling user behavior for outliers and exceptional activity. Application logs, OS logs, SQL activity, and configuration changes -- all play a significant part in securing the database, and should not be monitored in isolation of each other using point security solutions."
Both the IRS' and DHS' recent struggles should be a signal to those within government that database security must be a big priority. Unlike enterprise databases, these government data holdings are much more sensitive from a public safety perspective.
"We've done work in law enforcement, and the database is housing the information relating to undercover personnel or schedules for particular police personnel or home addresses of those individuals," Verry says. "Sony doesn't want to leak information about someone's email addresses, of course, but we're probably not going to have people dying or other more significant public issues like we would with a government database."
Unfortunately, at the moment, the government remains spotty, at best, at protecting its sensitive databases.
“Government database security is a mixed bag. Many organizations have just begun to look at implementing security controls for databases for the first time. Some organizations, including IRS, have purchased technology to address the issue, but then struggled with internal politics and resource constraints that have prevented them from using what they bought," says Josh Shaul, CTO for Application Security. "Other federal organizations are approaching a maturity around their database security programs; unfortunately those organizations are few and far between. The federal government has a long way to go before they can start calling their databases secure.”

The majority of Glasgow businesses have voiced their opposition to the city council’s plans to increase parking charges.
A poll conducted by the Glasgow Chamber of Commerce revealed that 85% of respondents fear the decision will have a detrimental effect on their businesses.
Glasgow City Council recently approved plans to increase parking fees and extend the time limit of parking restrictions to 10pm (previously 6pm), seven days a week, as part of its annual budget-setting process.
A date for implementation has yet to be confirmed.
Companies across various sectors voiced concerns that the charges will drive consumers away from the already struggling city centre and act as an unfair tax on key workers, adding an additional £7 per shift to their outgoings.
Glasgow Chamber of Commerce took to LinkedIn and X (formerly Twitter) to capture the views of members and, of the 260 responses, 85.77% said they believe the changes would have a negative impact.
Around 7% stated they did not yet know what impact would be, and the remaining minority of roughly 6% said the charges would not impact their business.
More than half of responses came from individuals at chief executive and director level positions.
Stuart Patrick, chief executive of Glasgow Chamber of Commerce, said: “Glasgow’s businesses have spoken and the message is clear: they want the council to reverse this decision.
“It is difficult to think of another policy which has received such an overwhelmingly negative response across all sectors.
“We understand the difficult position the council is in, it’s being asked to implement national policies at a local level with reduced income and ever-increasing costs, however, these decisions are making the recovery of the city centre increasingly difficult.
“We cannot ignore the cries for support from the hospitality sector, which has sadly witnessed a succession of businesses close down in recent months.
“Increasing parking charges also places additional financial pressure on city centre workers, including key workers at the Glasgow Dental Hospital, nearby schools and nurseries, retail and hospitality workers, who rely on street parking to access employment.
“This has a real risk to jobs and businesses across the city and we urge the council to listen to their concerns and reconsider their approach."
Seonaid Daly, executive director of the Glasgow Film Theatre, said: “Whilst we really encourage active and public transport travel into Glasgow Film Theatre and the city centre, we know from customer feedback that many people drive in and park nearby at night-time, taking advantage of the quieter roads and free parking.
“It’s not ideal to add another barrier to the sustainability of the nighttime economy when things are already so challenging.”

Yes, I'm still working on World of Chaos. I had given up for a while but now I've resolved to finish it, and that will probably be it for me and flash animations.
I'm doing things a little different though. Instead of one ep at a time, I'm going to finish the animation for ALL episodes left and then release them all at once. I'm about 1/4 of the way finished. I've decided to use real VAs as well.
There are 23 episodes in total plus a special "rule 63" episode. Thanks to my fans who have waited all this time to see more!

Rafizi and former Public Bank employee Johari Mohamad will be back to the court for a mention hearing on Sept 10.
K Pragalah, FMT
PKR strategy director Rafizi Ramli was charged at the Shah Alam Sessions Court this morning for revealing confidential banking details in relation to the NFC scandal.
He was charged under section 97(1) of the Banks and Financial Institutions Act (BAFIA) which carries a maximum jail sentence of three years and a RM3 million in fine.
He has allegedly breached the secrecy provisions of the Act by producing, divulging, revealing, publishing or otherwise disclosing, of any information or document whatsoever relating to the affairs or account of a banking customer.
Rafizi pleaded not guilty and was granted bail at RM15,000 with one bailor. Judge Aslam Zainuddin fixed Sept 10 to mention the case.
Rafizi was represented by N Surendran and Puspawati Rosman while the prosecution was led by DPP Nahra Dollah and Normie Faizura Aminuddin.
He was earlier arrested this morning at the Hulu Klang police station after Bank Negara formally lodged a report against him. Earlier this morning the police raided his home and detained him.
“Here’s my 1st reaction at being arrested: Damn GeorgeKent. @NajibRazak must surely love his golf buddy to risk this public relations mess,” wrote Rafizi on his Twitter message.
PKR vice president and lawyer Surendran however confirmed that the arrest was in relation to Rafizi’s National Feedlot Centre exposure.
Meanwhile Rafizi also in a Twitter message said that one Johari Mohamad would also be jointly charged.
Johari, a former employee of Public Bank, was also charged under the BAFIA law for allegedly revealing banking documents of a customer to Rafizi.
He too claimed trial and has been released on a RM15,000 bail.

Project Report: Information Literacy for Public Librarians, Peru
Peru is a country that in recent years has been able to achieve economic stability in the region of South America. However there are still major differences in the level of education across different regions of the country. Due to economic and political factors in the 1990s, the country stagnated and educational policies were not strong. The country is now improving gradually and economically but development is not reaching every city and region evenly. The mountain and jungle areas have fewer resources than the coastal zone.
Twelve people from the interior of the country participated in the workshop. Instituto Cultural Peruano Norteamericano (ICPNA) hosted the project with support from IFLA’s Action for Development through Libraries Programme (ALP).
The main purpose of this workshop was for participants to develop skills to be competent in information literacy, and to be trainers in the communities where they work to replicate the materials.
Participants were from public, state university, and community libraries. The workshop was led by Guadalupe Vega (Mexico).
- Train participants in information literacy
- Develop skills to evaluate information resources
- Develop trainers to return to train others in their own communities
After the workshop, participants left trained to search for accurate, timely information. They also developed a series of strategies to become trainers of others who have the same needs.
They left with a mental map of how to face an information need: formulate, clarify, organize and search topic, seek information, evaluate if relevant, synthesize, and know how to respect the hierarchy of information producers.
Workshop on Information Literacy for Public Librarians, Lima Peru 11-12 June 2012
One participant was from a ranch, Granja Porcon in Cajamarca. The ranch is in a rural area, and has schools for primary and secondary level. Students at the ranch participate in different farm chores, and use the Internet to obtain important data for marketing their agricultural products such as commodity prices, inputs, and also where products can be sold.
