Title: Development of a Phage-based Diagnostic Test for the Rapid Detection of Pathogenic Vibrio Species in Bivalves
Project Amount: $90,506
Project Period: 03/01/17-02/28/18
DESCRIPTION (Provided by Applicant):
Objective 1. Isolate V. parahaemolyticus and V. vulnificus specific phages. We hypothesize that bacteriophages that infect specifically V. parahaemolyticus or V. vulnificus and that are universal for all clinical isolates of these two bacterial species can be isolated. For this purpose, water samples collected from the northeast coast will be used to amplify phages specific to V. parahaemolyticus and V. vulnificus. These phages will be analyzed to identify those that are specific to clinical isolates of these two bacterial species.
Objective 2. Develop a bacteriophage-based diagnostic test for the detection of virulent V. parahaemolyticus and V. vulnificus. We hypothesize that recombinant phages expressing GFP of luxAB will enable the rapid detection of virulent V. parahaemolyticus and V. vulnificus in bivalves. To reach this goal, the bacteriophages isolated in the first part of the project will be further characterized and the most infectious ones will be used for the development of a diagnostic test that will be specific, sensitive, cost-effective, and rapid.

In 2022, the EPA cooperated with the Ocean Affairs Council to monitor the air quality over the ocean, extending the scope of Taiwan’s air quality monitoring from land to sea. The primary monitoring results show that the low-sulfur vessel fuel policy implemented since 2020 has yielded good results. Sulfur dioxide concentration has been significantly reduced. It was also discovered that vessels that reduced speed when entering or leaving ports also led to reduced pollution emission. Relevant results will be gradually applied in the drafting and promotion of marine air pollution prevention policies.
Currently, standard air quality monitoring equipment has been installed on Coast Guard ships stationed at Tamsui in New Taipei, Taichung and Tainan and has been monitoring PM2.5, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide since October 2022. Taking the Tamsui flotilla as an example, the average sulfur dioxide concentration measured onboard was 0.68 ppb, better than the 1.37 ppb measured at the nearby land-based Tamsui monitoring station. This shows that the better diffusion conditions at sea made air quality over the ocean better than that in land areas.
In addition, looking at the changes in sulfur dioxide concentration at four coastal land-based monitoring stations in Tamsui, Keelung, Mailiao and Xiaogang, the average was 1.93 ppb in 2021 and 1.52 ppb in 2022, which are better than the 3.5 ppb recorded in 2021 of neighboring Busan port in South Korea. In addition, they were also better than 3.51 ppb, the average concentration measured at the four stations in 2018, a 60% drop. The reason is likely due to measures implemented in Taiwan since 2019, including the promotion of “use of low-sulfur fuel only by vessels on international routes between international commercial ports” and the “tightening of restrictions on the composition of fuels used by mobile and stationary pollution sources.” These measures comprehensively reduced the sulfur content of the fuels used by both vehicles on land and vessels at sea from 3.5% to 0.5%, resulting in significant environmental improvement after their implementation.
The general traveling speed of vessels is about 20 knots. But according to studies, the energy consumption and air pollution emission are at the lowest if the average speed of vessels is reduced to 12 knots. Hence, the EPA has been cooperating with port authorities in recent years to promote the reduction of vessel speeds when entering or leaving ports. However, according to data, vessels only reduced speed by 56% and 43% when entering or leaving ports, respectively, showing that there is still room for improvement. In addition, according to the monitoring results of this project, the concentration of nitrogen dioxide measured in October by the Tamsui flotilla at the port exit was 15.32 ppb, higher than the average 9.55 ppb measured five nautical miles off the shore. One of the reasons was that vessels did not reduce speed when entering or leaving the port. All these information will serve as reference for the EPA when formulating incentive or prevention measures to promote the reduction of vessel speeds when entering or leaving ports.
Taiwan is a maritime country with living environments prone to both land-based and marine pollution sources. Understanding the air quality in marine areas will help policy makers form more effective prevention strategies targeted at various pollution sources. It is hoped that the cross-field cooperation will continue, leading to an improvement in environmental quality.

I have begun work on yet another of my 2016 classes, this time Appliqué. I am having to make all my samples again as I left my teaching folders with my Appliqué work with a teacher at my last school, never to be seen again. This time I thought I would do a set of "what will happen if you.." samples to show what can go wrong. As many students will not have done any appliqué before I am going to stick to the basics.
Starting with Raw edge - using double sided adhesive interfacing (vysofix). I will demonstrate all the tricks to making the assembley less painful. I will also have samples of machine appliqué showing straight stitch, zig zag, buttonhole and a fancy stitch appliqué but in the class we will stitch the edges with blanket stitch. I am using tea towels for the base fabric for some of the samples as lots of people make these as gifts.
This is first of the "what if's." What if you don't reverse your pattern. I will do another using the correct method.
I will also cover needle turn, reverse and freezer paper techniques.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ Mayflower Hotel problem is not going away. While the Nixon scandal boiled down to one Washington hotel, so too may the Trump Russia scandal, at least for Attorney General Jeff Sessions. NBC News reported that Jeff Sessions is now being investigated by the FBI and Congress for an event that was held at Washington D.C.’s Mayflower Hotel in Spring 2016.
The April 2016 event coincides with a peculiar timeline, that also included bringing in Paul Manafort to the Trump campaign team. The event was also attended by Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak, who is the Russia figure at the center of Michael Flynn’s firing, and also Jeff Sessions recusal from the Trump Russia investigation. Also at the event was Jared Kushner.
Jeff Sessions was forced to recuse himself from the ongoing Trump Russia investigation happening with the FBI and Congress, when it was revealed that he may have not been truthful about interacting with Russian Sergey Kislyak. But many are questioning Sessions’ recusal, and if in fact he has even completely recused himself from the investigation as he is legally required to do.
There are at least two known meetings or conversations between Jeff Sessions and Sergey Kislyak, that Sessions has brushed off as a matter of course during his time on the Foreign Armed Services Committee. But a third meeting is now being called into question, with at least five current and former United States officials now saying they are aware of intelligence that puts Jeff Sessions in a private encounter with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak.
Jeff Sessions said it did not happen, but a large body of circumstantial evidence hints otherwise. Jared Kushner has also said that he did not meet with Sergey Kislyak on that day. In this photo at the Mayflower Hotel last spring, Jeff Sessions is just a few feet away from Sergey Kislyak who is in the front row sitting directly in front of the speaker with the red tie. There is literally only one person, a woman, in the space between Jeff Sessions and Sergey Kislyak.
The Department of Justice spokesperson Sarah Flores said in a statement, “The facts haven’t changed; the then-Senator did not have any private or side conversations with any Russian officials at the Mayflower Hotel.”
The statement does not include a denial that Jeff Sessions did not have any conversations with Kislyak in a public setting.
The FBI is now investigating this event, that was put on by a think tank known as the Center for the National Interest, or CFTNI. Donald Trump spoke at this event giving a foreign policy speech. In most cases, a foreign policy speech during an election campaign by an American presidential candidate would be conducted at an event with multiple ambassadors from all over the world.
This event only included four ambassadors, from the countries Russia, Italy, Philippines, and Singapore.
The FBI is very interested in this event, who was there, and what was said. It was Senator Al Franken from Minnesota who questioned Jeff Sessions during his confirmation hearing on his alleged contacts with Sergey Kislyak. Senator Franken has since said, “It’s hard to come to a conclusion other than, he perjured himself.”
Witnesses at the Mayflower event have long said there was no private meeting between Jeff Sessions and Sergey Kislyak, but there was an event held privately in the Senate Room at the hotel prior to the event that they may not have known about. Both an FBI and Congressional investigations are now underway to determine the truth.
Ranking Senators on the Senate Intelligence Committee are declining to comment on the scope and results of the current investigation, but to say, “Can’t talk about it.”
The timeline of this Mayflower Hotel event coincides not only with the induction of Paul Manafort into the Trump campaign, but also with the timeline of events surrounding the launching of the “hacking and dumping” of stolen emails during the election campaign.
Republican Congress member Trey Gowdy of the House Intelligence Committee has dismissed perjury claims on Jeff Sessions. He said the following to CNN.
“Attorney General Sessions incorrectly answered a question. That happens almost every day in Congress. There aren’t perjury referrals. If he said he forgot about it, he would be about the one millionth person who actually forgot a fact.”
But Trey Gowdy does not have a history of being kind to Democrats that “forget facts” and developed an uncomfortable reputation himself during the Benghazi hearings against Hillary Clinton. The Wall Street Journal reported then that Trey Gowdy was sued for defamation over those hearings. Defamation is making false statements about someone that could harm or impair their reputation, as the Benghazi hearings did for Hillary Clinton.
The Inquisitr recently reported that Trey Gowdy himself was the subject of an ethics complaint over alleged bribes from Donald Trump super PACS during both the Benghazi hearings, and also the Trump Russia hearings.
Although Senators are not talking on record about Jeff Sessions perjury allegations now, an investigation into the transcripts of Congressional House Intelligence hearings notes a moment where Congress member Rep. Quigley called Jeff Sessions actions perjury.
“Unfortunately, what we’re reading now is that there was a third meeting as early as April of last year in Washington D.C., a meeting at which Candidate Trump was present and the Russian ambassador was present. At some point in time, this goes well beyond an innocent, under the best circumstances, ‘Oh I forgot’ sort of thing, or ‘that doesn’t count.’ When you correct your testimony in front of the United States Senate, you’re still under oath and you’re swearing to the American people that what you’re saying is true. Well, the third time is well beyond that and is quite simply, perjury.”
It is not okay to provide false facts to Congress, and could lead to defamation suits, or at worst, perjury charges. Find Law notes that penalties for perjury under oath could include prison terms up to five years.
Journalist Grant Stern and attorney Seth Abramson have both outlined more details on the meeting at the Mayflower Hotel. Grant Stern has followed the money and reports on Medium that the crux of the Trump Russia scandal all boils down to an oil deal.
Grant Stern has divided the scandal into three phrases. Stern reports that Phase One of the deal was Donald Trump naming Carter Page to his campaign. In an infograph shown on The Stern Facts at Medium, Stern reports that at this time, a Russian oil company owned by the Russian government known as Rosneft also hired American lawyers.
Phase Two reportedly involved sending Page on trips to Moscow. Carter Page according to this infograph was reportedly visiting Rosneft in Moscow. Phase Two also allegedly involved inviting Sergey Kislyak to attend the Republican National Convention. Grant Stern also reports in this infograph that Phase Two is allegedly the same time frame where then-Senator Jeff Sessions met with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak.
Those two alleged meetings are the same meetings he did not disclose during his confirmation hearing. One meeting between Jeff Sessions and Sergey Kislyak allegedly occurred in his office, and another reportedly occurred in Cleveland during the Republican National Convention.
Grant Stern reported that by Phase Three, the Rosneft deal was moving fast, and once it closed, it coincided with the dropping of the infamous Steele dossier right before Trump’s inauguration. Just prior to that however, Grant Stern reports that Phase Two also included the dumping of the Podesta emails by Wiki Leaks. All three phases can be shown in the graphic below.
But it was a week after Paul Manafort came on board that the night at the Mayflower Hotel allegedly occurred. Attorney and former criminal investigator Seth Abramson noted in a mega-thread on Twitter that, “The plot to sell America’s foreign policy for foreign oil and steal an election in the bargain began at the Mayflower Hotel.”
The group at that meeting was the Center for the National Interest (CTFNI). The meeting was originally scheduled for the National Press Club, a secure location. With less than 24 hours before Trump’s foreign policy speech to go, Seth Abramson alleges that the venue was cancelled with the Trump campaign noting via Paul Manafort that the venue was too small.
The meeting was relocated to the Mayflower Hotel. Attorney Seth Abramason asserts that what the Mayflower Hotel had that the National Press Club did not were private rooms and restricted VIP only areas.
According to Paul Sanders, executive director for CFTNI, the Center moved the event, not the Trump campaign, after a security review by the Secret Service determined that “substantial seating areas would have to be closed to provide a cleared and secure area near the stage. This would have prevented us from accommodating the over 100 guests and over 100 journalists with multiple cameras who wanted to attend the event. Because we were arranging the event on very short notice, very few alternative venues were available.”

Also at that event were the CFTNI event co-ordinators, Jeff Sessions, Jared Kushner, Paul Manafort, former and fired campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, and the four ambassadors, including Sergey Kislyak.
Michael Flynn was fired from the Trump Administration after it was revealed he had telephone conversations with Sergey Kislyak in December 2016. Jeff Sessions was forced to recuse himself from the Trump Russia investigation after it was revealed that he had private meetings in his office with Sergey Kislyak that he did not disclose in his confirmation hearings, that he says he forgot about.
Jeff Sessions also allegedly met with Sergey Kislyak in July 2016 at a Heritage Foundation event. CNN noted that another Republican Congress member, Dana Rohrabacher dismisses Jeff Sessions perjury claims.
“You’re trying to make this look like Attorney General Sessions is doing something sinister because he forgot that he’d had one extra conversation with the Russian ambassador.”
But to many, Dana Rohrabacher is a Congress member with his own Russian connections. Politico calls Dana Rohrabacher “Putin’s favorite Congressman” who “once arm-wrestled with Putin.” The New York Times also noted that in 2012, Dana Rohrabacher was warned by the FBI that Russian spies were targeting him for recruitment.
Regarding Jeff Sessions and the allegations that he is violating his recusal status of the Trump Russia probe, and that he had a third meeting with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak, a Department of Justice spokesperson is referring all questions to Robert Mueller the special prosecutor appointed to the Trump Russia investigation.
Former FBI Director James Comey is set to testify with the Senate Intelligence Committee on June 8, about events related to his sudden departure from the FBI. Whether or not James Comey will testify about Jeff Sessions relative to Trump Russia investigation remains to be seen.

Many wine bottles and reference guides helpfully offer an “optimum” temperature at which a wine should be served. Sticking the wine in an ice bucket is easy. Actually measuring the temperature it’s at is the hard part.
Parasia’s Digital Wine Thermometer looks a lot like an oversized pen. Uncap it and dip the probe in your wine. A digital display quickly indicates the temperature, to the nearest tenth of a degree. On the other end, you get a bright LED flashlight, good for all manner of drinking concerns, including aid in decanting your bottle of vino.
The thermometer works well, but it’s flawed in that it can’t easily be used with wine that’s still in the bottle. The size and shape make it better for wine that’s already in the glass… but by then it’s already too late to be chilled further. I’ve long since used an Aube thermometer that’s got a rubber stopper on it that lets it fit right into the wine bottle itself (it also has settings for a variety of wine styles, and an alarm that chimes when the wine has hit the correct temperature), and I still prefer the Aube to the Parasia. On the other hand, the Parasia is more portable and elegantly designed, and the flashlight is a nifty touch.
Official pricing isn’t available, but I’d expect it to run $20 or less (about the same as the Aube).

The in-game officials will be keeping a keen eye on Adam Burish after comments he made following the game day skate.
Burish was asked about what the Blackhawks need to do to get to Roberto Luongo and he said:
“Maybe it’s running him sometimes. Maybe it’s spraying snow in his face.”
The comments appeared on the league’s web site NHL.com.
After the quote appeared there, both the league and officials were made aware of the comments. They threaten to be a smoking gun if any of the Hawks intentionally crash into Luongo.

I tried to take it a little bit further in terms of detail and composition, actually it took me double (triple) the time as Snorlax aaaaand yeah. There's no process of this because I'm A F*CKIN MESS
, and I really don't have an actual painting process. What else, what else...
Oh! yeah... I know this guy is some lava fire dude, but I just thought it would be so much more badass if it's in the snow like... giving a f*ck. Like it's all "Yeah snow, f*ck you n shit I'm badass!"

Town of Tecumseh to reconsider cannabis retail stores
TECUMSEH, ONT. -- Officials in Tecumseh are looking at their options again when it comes to opting into offering retail cannabis stores, two years after taking a wait and see approach.
The Town of LaSalle changed its position Tuesday evening, with council unanimously opting in to allow brick and mortar cannabis shops. The move leaves the Town of Tecumseh as only local municipality still not permitting retail cannabis stores.
“We never said it was a definite, ‘we’ll never have a cannabis facility,’ but we wanted to see how it would adapt within other communities,” Tecumseh Mayor Gary McNamara says.
McNamara says there is no denying the economic benefits of hosting successful cannabis retail operations, but admits the town is disappointed with how much income goes to the federal and provincial governments first.
“At the end of the day, we want any business enterprise that wants to come into the community, first and foremost, council wants them to succeed,” he says. “We realize it does create jobs and here we are, two or three years later looking at, maybe there is an opportunity for the future.”
Father and son business partners Rob and Sam Katzman appealed to LaSalle Council with plans to open a retail store in the town.
“It’s not the Cheech and Chong day of the seventies," Rob Katzman told CTV News on Wednesday that upwards of 400 customers come through their stores daily, noting customers from LaSalle and Tecumseh have often come to his downtown Windsor location.
"Cannabis is a fantastic opportunity for the population, the citizens, to enjoy a new way of relaxing,” he says. “A new way of enjoyment.”
Delegations are expected to speak on the subject to Tecumseh Town Council at the upcoming April 13th council meeting, according to Mayor McNamara.
“Council will certainly take that opportunity to take a bigger look,” McNamara says.

Tamara Violet Partridge may only be 22 years of age, but she’s already making her stance in Melbourne’s electronic music scene. Apart from working on her debut album, she’s currently focusing on her headlining show ‘Ladies to the Front,’ a showcase of women in electronic music. RSOM sat down and spoke to Tamara about all things feminism and all things music.
Welcome back to RSOM, do you just want to start by giving us a rundown of what you’ve been up to since we spoke to you last October?
“I’ve been teaching for the last year or so, and I’ve helped written the curriculum for the course I teach. Other than that, I’ve been working on the album which is set to release later this year or early next year. I’ve got a single with my first professional music video accompanying it in the next few months as well coming out, which has been fun to make and collaborate with people on. I’ve basically just been writing a heap of songs and working out which ones to pick and choose from, because I’d rather write 20 tracks and pick the 10 best ones, the great ones. Just a lot of writing at this stage is where I’m at.”
You’ve got an amazing project coming up called ‘Ladies to the Front,’ where you’re headlining. Are you able to tell us what that’s about?
“The whole process of it really was that I wanted to put on a show that showcased women in the electronic music scene in Melbourne, because there are a lot of really prevalent artists that just aren’t making it to radio play or are getting the recognition they deserve when they get to that touring or even international level that male artists are getting. I just think to myself ‘well why is that?’. It’s not in a negative way or to put down any male artists at all, we’re just trying to create equality in a safe space for female artists because it can be very confronting. Especially in electronic music where there’s still that association with technology being a ‘masculine’ thing. It’s a very boys club kind of thing, which is totally fine, but it’s making sure that everyone feels equal regardless of what industry they’re in. It’s the same thing with DJ’ing, it’s not something that should be surprising or more engaging, I want you to come see me because I’m a good DJ, not because I’m a woman. The more shows we put on with women involved, where women are in the front, the better. It’s just one evening where we’re saying, ‘these chicks have worked really hard, let’s celebrate that.’
What are you looking forward to most about it?
“People have said that it’s becoming a theme in society, which is actually kind of offensive in its own right. I feel like it’s been a major theme in society since the suffragettes, but now we have the technology, the statistics and the power to talk about it. It’s like when people say, ‘feminism doesn’t have a place in modern society’ and I’m like ‘well let me tell you why it does and I know you’re allowed to have your opinion but here’s why your opinion is wrong’- statistically speaking. It’s just about that education, because sometimes people just don’t know and that’s fine too. But you need to be open minded and be willing to learn new things that you didn’t learn whilst growing up. I’m looking forward to people seeing a great show and not single out the fact that it is women performing.”
It seems like a lot of female electronic artists adopt these badass stage names. Do you feel as if ‘Lacuna’ gives you a sense of identity and confidence when out in the industry?
“It does, because I feel like as a composer when I perform it’s a totally different approach to music and a totally different industry. Being able to put a ‘Lacuna’ hat on, I talk about feminine power and feminine sexuality and mental health and sexual harassment. These are all themes throughout my album and themes throughout my music, because I like to sing about taboos. So that they’re not taboos anymore and people don’t feel isolated in these situations. I don’t get the chance to do that in composition because I’m working with someone else’s story and I’ve worked so hard to control my attitude, like I never can really express how I feel. When I’m singing; however, I can just belt out or even scream how I feel and I can swear and it’s not to my name, it’s to the name of something inside of me. I feel like Lacuna is the part of me that just wants to aggressively yell about it.”
You’re obviously a deep songwriter, but you play electronic music. Do you find it difficult to reflect the lyrics you’ve written into the electronic sounds and songs you create?
“See, that’s the easy part, which is actually really weird. I find that the hardest part is finding the flow of the story, and bringing it back into a mainstream, popular approach. It comes down to personality which is the beautiful thing about music- every artist will have a different challenge. The lyrics have always been the easy part for me and it’s something that in the Lacuna project I start with and make the beat around it. The darker or the more societally unacceptable a topic is, the more upbeat and happier key I’ll put it in to mask that. So, when people listen to it, they’re like ‘oh it’s a really good song,’ but then they find out what it’s really about and they’re shocked but realise that the song actually has a really great message.”
What’s the electronic scene like in Melbourne and do you feel like you’re empowered by the other women around you?
“Yes! And that’s exactly why I’m doing this gig. There are so many people that were on the list that couldn’t make it for various reasons and it’s like ‘why aren’t as famous as Banks’ or even male artists, it’s just like why not!? I think there’s still that unconscious bias, even though it’s getting better. You look at some of the artists and you’re like ‘you have everything perfected and there’s nothing else you need to do with your music so why is it different?’ Even the bands we play with are amazing and have done heaps of things already but people are still unaware of who they are. There are so many B-grade male DJs that people know about, yet the A-grade female DJs are almost unheard of. I don’t understand why it’s still like ‘oh so you’re a female DJ.’ Like no, I’m just a DJ, I wouldn’t call you a “male DJ.” There are so many female electronic artists and mixed bands that have trouble over male acts. There’s a big support system though. I’d love to turn it into an ongoing series too, and I might not even need to play at the next one because there’s so many female electronic artists out there. Electronic music is popping up everywhere, especially female musicians and it’s just great.”
Who are your favourite women in music and in electronic music currently?
“I think the biggest person is Bjork, like from when I was a kid. There are a lot of European artists, as well as Banks, FKA Twigs. I also love the RnB side, the girls I grew up with like TLC, Destiny’s Child, Missy Elliot, those who are big in the electronic/RnB scene. They changed the world. It’s really great when artists are the turning point for you, like FKA Twigs inspired me to want to perform again because what she’s doing is so amazing.”

Wellington Fields Allotments - Hixon.
About Vegetables In The Winter.
harvesting most of the 4 types of Beans that I had grown, I left the
dwarf red beans to over develop and dry off naturally on the plants.
Normally, you would do this to save the seed for next year, but in this
case the packet had said that the beans could be dried at the end of the
season and then stored in plastic tubs and used in the lean winter
months as “Haricot” beans. Unfortunately for me, the late wet spell
meant that although they did develop and some did dry, many pods went
black and the beans rotted inside. Consequently many had to be discarded
and I was left with only a few times more beans than I actually sowed in
the first place. Remembering that they were late going in I think they
will be a good crop for my second season and will prove very worthwhile
because unlike other beans they won’t need freezing to store them for
later use after all the fresh vegetables have long gone.
small crop of Pink Fir Apple potatoes have nearly all been eaten with
only some very tiny tubers left at the bottom of the bucket in the
garage. So far they are showing no signs of shrivelling or mould, so I
am hoping to over winter them and plant them in shallow trays of soil,
(or “Chit” them) in the greenhouse in early spring. It has always
struck me that potato tubers are expensive to buy and Pink Fir Apple are
not always available, so being able to replant them next season from my
own leftovers will be a great saving.
Beetroot have long gone and all been eaten, but I still have a large
number of Turnips in the ground and some ordinary orange coloured
Carrots, (not the Purple one which soon got eaten or given away!) along
with a few Jerusalem Artichokes. Back in the Summer I had toyed with the
idea of making a “Clamp,” to store my surplus crops in just as
people used to do in the olden days before modernisation.
in very simple terms, a “Clamp” is made by storing clean and dry
root vegetables piled up and mixed in straw to stop them rotting. The
resulting mound is then covered in a thick layer of soil to keep out the
elements and especially the frost.
Some crops obviously don’t need any winter protection at all as they are still growing. Indeed my Leeks are growing well now the weather has turned cooler and wetter, even if they are a little late developing and the Purple Curly Kale that I thought was planted too early, is re-growing nicely. When I cut the tops off, a few weeks ago, I left a stout length of stalk in the ground and it seems that by doing this, I now have a second crop developing nicely on the old stems. The same trick can be done with Lettuce growing in the summer months!

Advanced CGI delivering stunning results
What Is Virtual Staging?
Virtual staging is a powerful property marketing tool in which an empty plot is staged virtually using cgi.
When developing our virtual staging service we set out to provide a cost effective, fast and stylish alternative to physically dressing a property.
Whilst there will always be a place for an elegantly dressed show home, we aim to provide our customers with an option which is flexible and allows them to display more properties in different styles.
Why choose Virtual Staging?
Better Listing Appeal
Variety of design options
Research suggests that a furnished house will generate more interest online than an empty property.
The ability to virtually dress and stage a property room by room can bring a house to life and drive viewers to the property.
How does it work?
We can either scan or photograph the property, then you can select a style you would like. We then virtually dress the rooms with an expected 48hour turnaround.
Virtual Staging in Times of Social Distancing
Due to the current situation and subsequent social distancing, buyers can be hesitant to visit a property in person. However, virtual staging is a great option during social distancing times, offering similar benefits at a much lower cost.

Pope prepares video message for Super Bowl
VATICAN CITY - Look out, Lady Gaga. The pope is joining the Super Bowl frenzy.
Pope Francis has recorded a video message that will be shown during Sunday's Super Bowl game between the New England Patriots and the Atlanta Falcons.
A Vatican spokesman says the message is expected to be played on the screen at NRG Stadium in Houston either before the game or during the first quarter.
In the message, the pope says he hopes the Super Bowl will be "a sign of peace, friendship and solidarity for the world."
Francis is an avid sports fan who often speaks of how sports can bring about social change. He has previously taken to Twitter for the Olympics and soccer's World Cup. This is his first Super Bowl message.

As published at FoxNews.com on 1/15/14
By Wayne Allyn Root
I’ve finally found something I agree with President Obama on. Let me say it out loud, “Obama is right.” America was not built around fighting inequality. Never. America was not built around equality, fairness, or social justice. Those have never been the cornerstones of our economy. Those have never been the central tenants of our country, or our Constitution. Let’s all admit that Obama is 100% right.
Yet somehow we managed…even with inequality not even on our radar screen…to build the greatest nation in world history…and the greatest economy in world history. Coincidence?
We built an economy more powerful than most of the world combined. An economy so great that people the world over tried to escape their countries to come to ours. An economy so great the world gave it a name: “the American Dream.” An economy so great that people the world over believed America’s streets were “paved with gold.”
We managed to create more jobs than the rest of the world. Good paying jobs that produced the strongest middle class ever. We managed to lift more people out of poverty than the rest of the world ever imagined possible.
Even if not everyone got rich in America, the entire middle class lived a quality of life richer than “the rich” in other countries. We managed to create more millionaires and billionaires than the rest of the world. We managed to win two world wars. And we managed to invent pretty much everything the world cares about.
Can you imagine? This all happened without inequality on our minds.
Without worrying about inequality, millions of immigrants like my grandfather Simon Reis came to America without a dime to their name, but loads of ambition, dreams of greatness, and unmatched work ethic. My grandfather turned a 4-man butcher store into his American Dream. That couldn’t happen in any other country in the world.
But that’s wasn’t good enough for Obama.
Obama comes along, obsessed with inequality. He lectures us about it in every speech. His entire agenda and every policy is intended to create equality, fairness, and social justice. He vows to “fundamentally transform the United States.”
The result? Suddenly the unstoppable American economy is stopped cold in its tracks. Our GDP is in quicksand. The great American jobs juggernaut is in reverse. We have chronic unemployment. The lowest work force participation rate in 35 years. Massive deficit and debt.
We have millions unemployed. Millions more under-employed. 47 million on food stamps- more than the population of Spain. Over 10 million on disability. More Americans on entitlements than working in the private sector. Over 46 million living in poverty- twice the population of Syria. Over 6 million more Americans living in poverty just in Obama’s first term: http://cnsnews.com/news/article/terence-p-jeffrey/census-obama-s-1st-term-real-median-income-down-2627-people-poverty
The number of Americans without a job has increased by almost 10 million under Obama:
Thousands lined up for menial jobs, with a better chance of getting into Harvard than getting a job in a fast food restaurant:
Under Obama…with this focus on inequality…suddenly America is no longer America. Suddenly we aren’t the greatest country or economy in the world. Suddenly we are rather ordinary. Under Obama, “Yes we can” has turned to “No we can’t.”
But we actually owe a debt of gratitude to Obama. He has proven, once and for all, the answer to the question, “What made America the greatest nation in world history?” It isn’t the air. It isn’t the water. It isn’t the dirt.
If those things made us great, why aren’t Mexico and Canada great? They share our borders. Why isn’t Cuba great? It’s right off our Florida coast. Why didn’t those countries dominate the world? Why only America?
And it sure wasn’t a focus on equality, fairness and social justice. Every country in world history that made those principles the centerpiece of their economy became a dysfunctional economic basket case. Name anything great that ever came from Venezuela, Argentina, Angola, or Zimbabwe? Why didn’t the old Soviet Union or China dominate the world like we did? Why are North Koreans starving to death?
Why isn’t Europe a powerhouse like America? Why are Greece, Italy, Spain and France facing economic Armageddon? Why do they have 25% unemployment, 55% youth unemployment, and massive unsustainable debt? Those countries all cared far more about equality than we ever did.
Thank you Mr. Obama. You have proven exactly what made America great. Not just great, but THE greatest in world history. Our obsession wasn’t inequality, it was opportunity and economic freedom.
Our Constitution never talks about inequality or social justice. We never guaranteed happiness or wealth- only that everyone would have the opportunity to pursue happiness and wealth with economic freedom.
It’s opportunity and economic freedom that creates mobility and massive growth. That’s what creates jobs by the millions. That’s what created the world famous “American Dream” and those famous streets “paved with gold.” That’s what created the American middle class that was the envy of the world.
As if on cue, the “2014 Economic Freedom Index” came out yesterday, listing all the countries in the world. http://www.heritage.org/index/ranking
Under Obama the United States has dropped all five years on the list, for the first time in history. Under Obama the United States has dropped out of the top 10, for the first time in history. Tragedy has befallen the United States. We are officially headed in the direction of Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea, Zimbabwe and Iran.
Obama, with his obsession with inequality, has killed the goose that laid the golden egg (and the golden streets). Obama with his obsession with inequality has led us straight to shared misery. Obama has done something no one thought possible. He has made America…ordinary.
Because of Obama, now we know exactly what made America great. And we know not to ever take it for granted again.
Now we have a choice to make. Which path do you choose for your children’s and grandchildren’s future? Think long and hard. Because the answer will change the course of history.

Understanding Judaism in a Pluralistic World: Who is My Neighbor and Who is the Stranger
Thursday, September 10, 2015 | 7 p.m. | Temple Emanuel, Tempe
For centuries, Jewish philosophers have sought to negotiate between a science of knowing and the study of Jewish texts. Still, it can be argued that the much 20th and 21st century Jewish thought has reveled in a rejection of the effort to reconcile Jewish and non-Jewish learning, influenced as it has been by post-war doubts about the value of human reason. A new engagement between Judaism, Jewish text study and recent trends in philosophy is called for. Such an engagement begins where the work of Hermann Cohen left off by providing a renewed account of transcendental logic and reflection in the context however of a post-Kantian analysis of language, cognition and the negotiation between theoretical and practical knowing.

Franz Rosenzweig’s Passage from Political Philosophy to Philosopher of Religion
2015 Harold and Jean Grossman Lectures in Jewish Thought
Jules Simon, University of Texas at El Paso
Thursday, October 1, 2015 | noon | Lattie F. Coor Hall, room 3323
Franz Rosenzweig is one of the most important Jewish Philosophers of the 20th Century whose body of work continues to challenge our traditional philosophical and religious sensibilities. For this talk, I will present a reading of Rosenzweig’s passage from his early years as a committed and patriotic academic student of the German state to his identity as a Jewish philosopher-in-exile who, in his socio-political life choices and intellectual commitments, enacted a critique of the German state he had previously so eagerly embraced. I will do so by exploring the genetic relationship of his early work, Hegel and the State, to the work that earned him international fame, The Star of Redemption. more

Gay clubs are now free to be anywhere and anyone.
And you can be one too, thanks to a new gay club called Stonewall.
The club is called Gayborhood, and it’s being built by the city of Stonewalls New York, which wants to expand its gayborhood and gayborry programs, which have been in place since 2011.
The goal is to turn gayborriestown into a thriving gay-friendly community.
And the club is just one of many places that have sprung up across the city since the ban on gayborrie was lifted.
But StonewALL is hoping that this new approach to community development will allow for the same kind of transformation that is happening in Stonewalling itself.
Gayborhood has already attracted a handful of gay couples, as well as an assortment of people who identify as straight.
But now the club will open to anyone who wants to be part of the community, and will host regular open houses.
The plan is to have the club open to the public, and a full-service bar will also be built on the ground floor of the building, along with a full kitchen, dining room, and bar area.
Gaybortown will also offer more than 100,000 square feet of retail space, and some businesses are planning to make it their home base.
The Stonewalla gayborborhood will be one of a number of gayborrioos that have been sprouting up across New York City in the past year.
The gayborries are popping up in Brooklyn, Queens, and the Bronx.
They’re also sprouting in other parts of the country, like Orlando, Georgia, and New Orleans, Louisiana.
But the new gayborioos are also coming from all walks of life.
Gaybborhood is a new kind of community, with a new approach.

The ED officials said Omar Abdullah arrived at the probe agency’s headquarters this morning where his statement is being recorded in connection with the purchase of a building by the J&K Bank about 12 years ago.
New Delhi: The Enforcement Directorate on Thursday (April 7) questioned former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister and National Conference (NC) leader Omar Abdullah in Delhi in connection with the J&K Bank case.
As per PTI, the officials said Omar Abdullah arrived at the ED’s headquarters this morning where his statement is being recorded in connection with the purchase of a building by the J&K Bank about 12 years ago. They said the case was registered by the federal probe agency earlier this year.
Calling the questioning “political in nature”, the NC wrote on its Twitter handle that Abdullah will “cooperate as there is no wrongdoing on his part”.
Slamming BJP-ruled Central government, NC said whichever party stands against the saffron party, central agencies are “misused” against them. “The central government has made a habit of misusing investigative agencies and this is another step in the same direction. No political party that puts up meaningful opposition to the BJP has been spared, whether it is the ED, CBI, NIA, NCB – all have been used for political purposes,” the NC said in its statement.
The J&K party further alleged that elections are now announced by the ED instead of the Election Commission (EC). “There was a time when elections were announced by the EC but now it seems that elections are announced by the ED. Over recent years we have seen that where ever state elections are due, agencies like the ED move in and target those parties who pose a challenge to the BJP,” the NC claimed.
Terming the ED summon “vicious vilification”, JKNC said, “This summons is another step in the vicious vilification campaign that started even before 5th August 2019, when constitutional position holders like the then Governor were used to make slanderous accusations against opponents of the BJP, knowing full well that there was no legal recourse available to those at the receiving end of these lies.”
“Even though this exercise is political in nature, Mr Omar Abdullah will cooperate with investigative agencies as there is no wrongdoing on his part and he is not an accused in any matter under investigation,” it added.
Meanwhile, earlier today, Prime Minister Narendra Modi met NC chief Farooq Abdullah, Samajwadi Party’s Mulayam Singh Yadav and other leaders, after the conclusion of Parliament’s Budget session. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh and Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla were also present.

It is no surprise that the Sewaholic Renfrew top was “A Best Pattern of 2012” on PatternReview.com. There’s so much to like about this pattern.
The pattern offers three neckline variations as well as three sleeve variations. The pattern comes with all sizes in one envelope; 0-16. I made size 4. Pattern details available here.
The pattern is for knits but if you don’t have a serger you can still whip this one up easily. It offers 5/8″ seams and banded hems for the sleeves and body. I sewed the top with the knit stitch on my regular machine followed by a three-thread stitch on my serger.
The fashion knit is a remnant from Tissus Mode De L’Orme in Granby, Quebec. I love their fabric selection and always stock up when I’m visiting that area.
This is my fourth version of this pattern and it won’t be my last. The top is a quick and satisfying project.
Here are my previous three tops:

Now that’s a taste of politics from the land down under; some Australian officials are condemning carbon and pollution taxes, argueing that since it will make a difference only after a thousand years, we shouldn’t bother at all. Here’s their statement:
“It will not make a difference for 1000 years,” the Opposition Leader told parliament. “So this is a government which is proposing to put at risk our manufacturing industry, to penalise struggling families, to make a tough situation worse for millions of households right around Australia. And for what? To make not a scrap of difference to the environment any time in the next 1000 years.”
Typical political manipulation ! This is wrong in so many ways, I don’t even know where to start. Probably the best thing to explain first here would be that if carbon emissions stop, or significantly drop, we may have to wait another 1.000 years before temperatures drop again, but temperature will stabilize at a livable level, instead of going towards a future that no one can predict, but isn’t going to be pretty.
Also, it’s not only about carbon emission, but also finding alternative energy sources, with oil and coal running lower and lower each year and becoming more and more expensive. Also, even a slight increase in temperature has massive worldwide effects, showing a butterfly effect development. So don’t allow yourself to be fooled by mascarades such as this, and don’t take the easy way out. We all live on the same planet, which will be just fine billions of years from now; but life on this planet we call Earth, that’s what we’re threatening.

SeaBear's Signature Gold Seal Pouch
A SeaBear Innovation
Our founder, Tom Savidge, was awarded a patent for his idea behind the Gold Seal pouch. Tom's invention made it possible to easily share Pacific Northwest Smoked Salmon -- one of the world's great regional food tradition -- with family and friends around the country.
Here's how it works -- our wild salmon is smoked, vacuum sealed in this special pouch, and then cooked in its own juices; this preserves our salmon naturally, so no refrigeration is needed until the pouch is opened.
This video shows how to best open and serve from your Gold Seal pouch. Once opened, please keep your smoked salmon refrigerated, and use within 4-5 days. Enjoy!
A WOW Appetizer!
Your SeaBear Smoked Salmon is ready to serve and enjoy straight out of the pouch. Make a grazing board with your favorite accompaniments -- we love soft cheeses, fruits, nuts, sliced vegetables, fig jam, a mild/sweet mustard and of course crackers and slices or a crispy artisan bread.

The wife called: Power just went out. It's a trend: When I checked Oncor's outage-info website 10 minutes ago, close to 39,000 folks in Dallas were sans juice; that number has since jumped to 41,722, with another 12,680 outta luck in Fort Worth. Here's the latest map. Oncor says: That's the way wind blow. Because it's 1912.
"It's due to very high sustained winds and much higher wind gusts," says Megan Wright, Oncor spokesperson. "We had 30,000 at 4 p.m., and it's going up. The wind slows our crews working to restore power, and as soon as the wind subsides, which we hear will be tonight, they'll move much more quickly. The big problem we've seen today is trees hitting the power lines. And we have problems with homeowners not wanting us to trim trees. That's been the biggest problem today."
And, yes: Even if you have a "smart meter," do call in your outage at 1-888-313-4777. "Just to be on the safe side," Wright reminds.

Preorders for the much anticipated MG4 electric car will open in Australia on April 11 2023.
Initially only the top spec 64kWh Essence variant will be for sale for $47,990 plus on-road costs. At a later date two other variants will be available at a lower cost.
The MG4 was revealed to the Australian motoring media and electric vehicle enthusiasts at the recent Fully Charged Live Sydney conference which I attended.
Essence features include a two-tone roof, twin aero rear spoiler, 360-degree camera, wireless phone charging pad, MG Pilot advanced driver assistance system (Blind Spot Detection (BSD), Lane Change Assist (LCA) and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)), automatic LED headlights and rear lights, rear parking sensors, 18’’ alloy wheels, adaptive cruise control, automatic climate control and MG iSmart app connectivity.
Full specifications for the MG4 Essence are not available yet, this is what we know so far:
- Five-star Euro NCAP score awarded to the entire current MG4 model UK range. Australian ANCAP rating yet to be determined.
- standard equipment for all Australian MG4 variants includes: LED headlights and 10.25-inch infotainment system.
- MG4 is the first pure EV Modular Scalable Platform (MSP) car available from MG Motor in Australia and New Zealand.
- 150kW of power, 50:50 weight distribution, rear-wheel drive configuration
- low centre of gravity in synch with the battery design and placement. WLTP range of up to 435km on a single charge.
- 64kWh battery is capable of charging up at a peak rate of 135kW.
I look forward to test driving the MG4 in real world suburban and road trip conditions to let you know what the experience is like.

The Taco House, which is located in the parking lot in front of David's Market, is a rather unique operation, in that it features an almost full-featured restaurant, in a permanent location, yet it's located entirely outside, and only protected from the elements by temporary fold-up gazebo-style canopies, the kind that you'd purchase at your local big box store for only around $70.00 each. The Taco House is owned and operated by the folks who own and operate David's Market, and The Taco House caters to shoppers who require instant taco gratification, rather than purchasing their food at the market, taking it home, and cooking it. The Taco House also caters to folks passing by on busy South Avenue B, which is actually located on the north end of town.
Photo: The Taco House is located in the parking lot, just north of David's Market, and is owned and operated by the same friendly people.
Photo: The Taco House is set up permanently, but is housed under flimsy canopies. Note the refrigerators, grills and the huge assortment of cooking equipment. Their menu is painted on the wall, near the right of the photo.
Thursday afternoon, October 21, 2010 found me coming back from a trip to the border town of Cd. Los Algodones, Baja California, which has the distinction of being the most northern town in Mexico. During my visit to Algodones, I had the pleasure of eating at three different restaurants, but I could not find a place in town that served cabeza, nor could I find a vendor selling grilled, bacon wrapped hot dogs. That was unusual for Mexico, but, that's Algodones. When I asked the gal at the motel for her recommendation of a good taco and/or hot dog place, without hesitation she recommended The Taco House. So, you might say, I wanted to give the place a try...
Like any good Mexican street food vendor, the gentleman operating the restaurant, Alfonso, didn't speak a word of English. No problema, as my Spanish kicked in and I asked him what variety of tacos they were serving, and he pointed out the painted menu on the wall of the store, but today's offerings for tacos were chicken, carne asada and cabeza, as he was out of the other ingredients. In addition to tacos, I noticed that they serve tostadas, tortas and hot dogs. Hot dog!!! I asked him if they serve Sonoran-style hot dogs, which are wrapped in bacon and served with beans, guacamole and more, and he said that was the variety that they offer. Sing me up!!! I ordered two tacos de cabeza and one bacon wrapped hot dog to go, as I planned to enjoy the fine cuisine later in my motel room.
Photo: Alfonso has my tortillas cooking on the griddle. The next logical step would be to drink another beer and to start the chicken grilling, but The Taco House doesn't sell beer, (but David's Market does...) and I had to drive.
Photo: A portion of the condiments offered were the red salsa, at the left of the photo, to diced green onions.
The Taco House is quite an operation, and despite the flimsy protection from the elements, it's a full-service outdoor restaurant, and sports a stove, a griddle, a couple of charcoal fired grills, a refrigerator for drinks, a refrigerator for meat and vegetables, several ice chests, a complete salad bar, and much more. I noticed a big pot of something simmering on a burner, and I asked Alfonso what was cooking, and he said "beans," which could be added to the tacos or hot dog as a condiment. Yes, I was in true Sonoran style taco and hot dog heaven!
Alfonso got right to work and placed four corn tortillas - you get the choice of corn or flour tortillas - on the griddle to toast. When the tortillas were ready, he placed them on a plate - two per taco - and scooped the lengua out of a pot, and place a large spoonful on top of the tortillas. Then he handed me the plate of tacos and invited me to garnish them with the garnishes in stainless steel bins, at the counter. That's the format with tacos - you pick out the garnishes that you desire and place them on your tacos. I chose a spoon of beans on each taco, guacamole, pickled red onions, chopped peppers and cilantro, but there were many other choices from his extensive condiment bar, such as several varieties of salsa,, chopped cabbage, and of course key lime halves.
Photo: Alfonso scoops cabeza from a stainless steel bin and places it on my freshly toasted tortillas. Next, he handed me the plate, and it was up to me to garnish my tacos... no problema!
Photo: Alfonso places condiments, which are kept cold, inside the refrigerator, on to my bacon wrapped hot dog.
I forgot to mention that he reached into the refrigerator and grabbed a hot dog, that was pre-wrapped with bacon, and placed it on a separate griddle, that seemed to be used exclusively for hot dogs. Whatever... there is nothing that I love more than a Sonoran-style hot dog.
It works a little different for the hot dog, as you tell Alfonso what you want on your hot dog, and he garnishes your hot dog for you. He grabbed a bun from one of the ice chests and placed it on a paper plate. His timing was perfect, as the dog was nicely browned, and the bacon was cooked. I asked him to add mustard, mayonnaise, diced tomatoes, diced white onions, beans, and more of his creamy guacamole. I also requested a small container of red salsa to go, which he was only too happy to provide.
Photo: My plate of two tacos de cabeza, garnished with beans, chopped onions, cilantro, red onion strips, and creamy guacamole. The guacamole hides the beans, but trust me, they're in there!
Photo: My delicious bacon wrapped, Sonoran hot dog sports mustard, mayonnaise, diced tomato, diced onions, topped with guacamole. I took home a small bowl of red salsa, that I used as a dip for some tortilla chips I had.
All together, my meal of two tacos de cabeza and a Sonoran style hot dog, with all the trimmings, came to the very reasonable price of $4.75 - you can't get a decent fast food lunch for anywhere near the price - and the food served at The Taco House is the real deal, real Sonoran-style Mexican food. The food is authentic Sonoran style Mexican cuisine, it's delicious, the proprietor doesn't speak English, the condiments are fresh, and the price is right. You add it all up, and The Taco House is my kind of restaurant.

Technique and condition
This image on white wove Whatman was the second copy of two images made by a copying process which Turner used to generate a limited number of copies from other lecture diagrams. The surviving original was a drawing of one column of the same dimensions (Tate D17061; Turner Bequest CXCV 91), and the upper copy was used to illustrate realistic rendering of a rounded column, using a graded watercolour wash (Tate D17058; Turner Bequest CXCV 88).
Turner needed several copies so that he could if he chose illustrate the drawing of a single element such as a column alone, then later with perspectival lines going to a single point, or built up to a colonnade of identical columns, or used to illustrate the way to make a column look three-dimensional by shading, He could also use such a colonnade to form an entire elevation of the building. The process seems to have involved placing a blank sheet on a table, overlaying double-sided copying paper, followed by another blank sheet, another sheet of double-sided copying paper, and the image to be copied. Then he pressed down hard on each ruled line of the top copy with a sharp tool run against a ruler, and unpacked the paper stack to reveal one good and one pale copy, with little smudging on the ‘good’ side. If necessary, he strengthened straight lines in the copies, which would both be identical and not reversed, and then he hand-applied the curved elements freehand as necessary and/or painted the lines to make them bold enough to demonstrate to a large audience in a room lit artificially.
Sets of copies identified thus far include: Building in Perspective (Tate D17051; Turner Bequest CXCV 81) which is an upper copy of a lost original and A House in Perspective, Lecture Diagram 36 (D17052; CXCV 82), and Building (D17053; CXCV 83) which are both lower copies of comparable originals; Tracing of Guiding Lines of Diagram of Capital, Tuscan Entablature Worked Out in Perspective (D17077; CXCV 107) which was used as the original for the copies Capital, Tuscan Entablature Worked Out in Perspective (D17076; CXCV 106) and Tuscan Entablature (D17079; CXCV 109); two top copies now called Tracing of Guiding Lines (D17132; CXCV 161) and Classical Columns (D17142; CXCV 171) of a lost original and another copy Part of Classical Buildings, with Columns (D17141; CXCV 170) of the same subject, and the set discussed here.

Merle Haggard – I Can’t Be Myself Lyrics
It’s a way of mine to say just what I’m thinking
And to do the things I really want to do
And you want to change the part of me I’m proud of
So I can’t be myself when I’m with you
Oh you never liked the clothes I wear on Sunday
Just because I don’t believe the way you do
But I believe the Lord knows I’m unhappy
Cause I can’t be myself when I’m with you
I can’t be myself and be what pleases you
And down deep inside I don’t believe that you want me to
And it’s not my way to take so long deciding
That I can’t be myself when I’m with you


itnewstoday.com: Students being taught proprietary systems exclusively will come out of school knowing only those particular systems. Where’s the versatility there? Who exactly would that benefit?
daniweb.com: Like many I'm sure, I'd heard a little of the Free Software Foundation. I recently stumbled upon a new campaign being run by the FSF, entitled the "Windows 7 Sins"... you guessed it - timed around the release of the launch of Win7.
blog.printf.net: I was at the keynote too, and was paying attention, and it turns out that even with context applied, someone who talks about "explaining to girls what we actually do" when talking about free software really is saying something sexist. This statement actually wasn't the first exclusionary thing Mark had said in the talk.
Also: The next wave of feminism crashes on the FOSS shores
osnews.com: In France, the GPL has scored yet another major win in court. What makes this infringements case special is that it was filed not by the developers of the infringed-upon code, but by users, demonstrating that they, too, can successfully enforce the GPL.
channelregister.co.uk: Open source vendors are calling on the UK government to put its money where its mouth is and police its own rules on public sector open source software procurement - which were revised in February this year.
itnewstoday.com: Why do companies use closed source applications that are tremendously more expensive, when they could probably get away with using open source solutions that are noticeably cheaper?
freesoftwaremagazine.com: Is free software really capable of serving end users or not? This issue has political consequences, which is part of what makes it important: either free software is “minor league” or it’s “major league”.
shanefagan.com: The FSF believes that everyone should use the term GNU/Linux rather than just Linux and use Free Software not open source. What im wondering is the FSF an extremist organisation that no one takes entirely seriously?
thebeezspeaks.blogspot: Nobody denies that sexism in FOSS exists. If not, Carla Schoder wouldn't be able to list a set of incidents. The problem I have with this statement is, that now it seems to be exclusively a FOSS problem -
sinaisix.blogspot: One of the best things that ever happened to the world of computing was the advent of Free and Open Source software. However, there does not seem, at least from where I stand, to be any proper definition of who FOSS defines as its target audience.
