Guilt Post

Now that I have invited some people to actually read my blog I am feeling the pressure to actually write something down, even when nothing has popped into my head so far today! The purpose of this post is to tell all of my many readers, all two of you :-), that I may not post each and every day. I sometimes post several days in a row and then skip a week or even more if the urge is not there. Just know it is a sometime thing and not an every day thing.

Today in Dublin it is supposed to be over 100 degrees, this is only our second hot spell of the summer so we can't really complain.

Weather for the next 5 days:

On days like this I stay home and huddle under the air conditioning :0 By Friday I'll feel safe going outdoors again though so I may take the opportunity then of going on a nice long bike ride by myself. Going with Serenity or Lora is fun but I don't get very much exercise at 6 year old speeds.

That is it for this morning, I'll post more later if the urge strikes, for now I need to wake up Serenity and take her to school.

NBC anti-life?

I would boycott NBC, if I ever watched it that is. I actually never watch anything on the old line networks, NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX. Everything I watch is on the cable only stations... do they still broadcast over the air? Ah well, this story is about the fact that it seems NBC refused to air an ad put together by some Catholic outfit that features an embryo and all of the hardships it faced in early life ending up with the revelation that they were talking about Obama. Here is the ad , check it out and see how unoffensive it is. Like I said, if I watched them I'd quit now. :-/

Wikileaks and police state censorship

I saw an article today on SF Gate about some nit wit Bush appointed Federal Judge ordering a website I'd never heard of called Wikileaks shut down because they were publishing some bank documents from some corrupt Swiss bank. The amusing thing is that they can't actually do it! Even more amusing is that this just draws attention to the site and makes it that much more visible, yay idiot goons! :-) There are mirror sites all over the world and it's almost impossible for thuggish police state goons to figure out how to close off all of the leaks :-) One mirror site is here: http://wikileaks.be/wiki/Wikileaks The US site they tried to close down is still here: http://88.80.13.160 "Cowardice asks the question, 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question, 'Is it politic?' Vanity asks the question, 'Is it popular?' But, conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?' And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe,...

Child Driven Education

Here is a Ted Talk with Sugata Mitra on Child Driven Education... very unschooling-like I think.  :-)  I've seen videos of him before, this is an update on his research on letting groups of kids learn on the internet, mostly without any supervision at all.  Posted via email from The Angry Gnome
