Dag Wieers view on Mark's pledge for synchronized release
2008-05-18 07:29:00
Read it here: http://dag.wieers.com/blog/ubun-tus-need-to-catch-a-waveSo Mark's article is wishful thinking and hoping to ride the wave that Red Hat (and Novell) are funding. If he can use that same kernel, with the same backports, fixes and regressions tests, Ubuntu LTS does not need to do anything to support the same vendor hardware. Easy, but at the expense of both Novell and Red Hat.That explains why Mark wants 2 out of 3 Enterprise Linux distributions to enter his circle. I could imagine Novell and Mandrake joining forces to align the release cycle to try and take on Red Hat's 80% Enterprise Linux market share (sales, not necessarily install-base). There is hardly any benefit in Mark's proposal for Red Hat. - Izhar Firdaus -

Three Teens Suspended from School for Not Standing for the Pledge of Allegi
2008-05-10 03:39:00
My comment as I posted it to this story: This is Not George Orwell's 1984 Before I say another word please let it be known that I love my America and am very happy that I live in this country of mine. This, however, has nothing to do with the fact that I believe that there are many, many rules that are unnecessary to our existence as a FREE-THINKING society and this one is a prime example of one of these rules. These are 13-year-old kids that we are talking about here. Remember being this age? their hormones are all over the place...their rebellious nature as they spread their wings. Perhaps they've been easily influenced by what they see/hear in their environment. They weren't being violent...they didn't break a law...if they didn't feel like standing up, so what? let them sit down as long as they're quiet and not causing trouble. Reminds me of another unnecessary school rule - the one about not chewing gum while attending a teacher's class. There are much more vitally i...

Take the No Foie Gras Pledge, Ludwig Buchner and Labor Day Joke
2008-05-01 02:52:00
Filipino celebrities joined the international campaign against foie gras (say FWAH-GRAH) by taking the ‘No Foie Gras’ Pledge organized by PETA Asia-Pacific. The Pledge states that they will never buy or eat foie gras because they ‘believe that force-feeding ducks and geese with long metal tubes is extremely cruel.’ The signatories of the pledge include model Isabel Roces, Senator Bong Revilla, and veteran actor Eddie Gutierrez. Let’s follow their lead and do an online pledge against foie gras here… Our quote today comes from Ludwig Büchner, born today in 1824. He was one of the philosophers who popularized materialism and based his worldview on the facts and discoveries established by the philosophers of the natural world (science). in 1881 he founded the “Deutsche Freidenkerbundâ€(German Freethinkers League) which served as the first atheist group in… Happy Labor Day to everyone!

The Pledge of Allegiance
2008-04-25 15:05:00
Red Skelton was before my time. I do not know much about him but for those of you who are completely unfamiliar with him, Red Skelton was a movie star and comedian on television back in the 1950s. He created a number of characters, and his show was watched by millions. He ended every show by saying, "GOOD NIGHT AND GOD BLESS." Listen to the end of this. It is something he said 39 years ago. It is very important that you listen to the very end! Eerie! Take a moment and listen to it (from 1969). How would he have known that this is what is happening today?Red Skelton's Pledge of Allegiance

Pledge Your Support for ELI STONE
2008-04-17 16:05:00
In this era of evil mega-corporations, greed and corruption, one man sticks up for the little guy.

Arizona: 2nd Graders Forced To Say Pledge Of Allegiance In Spanish
2008-04-09 14:13:00
Thanks to Immigration Watchdog:The Tucson Unified School District has found itself tangled in a web of online discontent, following outrage over the way a second-grade class recites the Pledge of Allegiance.For years, Gale Elementary School teacher Anne Lee has had her students recite the pledge in three languages — English, Spanish and American Sign Language — as a learning exercise. The kids start with English.When Lance Altherr learned last week that his son was reciting the pledge in Spanish, he was outraged. He spoke with Lee and then Principal Paula Godfrey, demanding they stop the practice. They wouldn’t, and Altherr moved his son to a different class.In the days before the Internet, that’s where the drama would have stopped.But Altherr, who is a member of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps, took his case to the Internet, sending out mass e-mails and posting on message boards.The result has been a swirling Internet controversy marked by crushing e-mails sent from acros...

Nigel Barker, Pledge To End Seal Slaughter By Boycotting Canadian Seafood
2008-03-11 05:33:00
Noted fashion photographer and America's Next Top Model host Nigel Barker, as we previously mentioned, has joined with The Humane Society of the United States to stop the cruel Canadian seal hunt. He's designed his own T-shirt to raise awareness of the hunt and has been wearing it everywhere - from Fashion Week to the red carpet. In early March, he traveled with The HSUS's ProtectSeals team to the Gulf of St. Lawrence and photographed the wonder of the harp seal nursery. Now he's holding a contest to see who can get the most people to sign a pledge to boycott Canadian seafood. And we are in it to win it! The real prize is ending this pointless hunt once and for all.

News : Microsoft's latest interoperability pledge: How free is 'open' now?
2008-02-23 03:16:00
No move by Microsoft to share information with its competitors will ever be taken at face value, and certainly yesterday's new Interoperability Principle will come under very close scrutiny. Is this the opening of the floodgates the EC has been demanding?In incremental, measured, if slow steps, Microsoft has made some efforts to comply with directives from the European Commission to make its software and protocols more interoperable with products from other manufacturers. Yesterday, the company surrendered one more boundary between its interoperability policy and the EC's dream situation, making a huge chunk of the information it published in response to the EC's order available to developers free of charge."We're announcing that developers will not need to take a license, or pay a royalty, or other fee to access any of that information," revealed CEO Steve Ballmer yesterday (according to Microsoft's transcript). "As an immediate first step to apply the principles today we're ...
