Bed Time Postings

I really should not post when I'm tired, or have been drinking, or worse, both. As I said on an email list this morning:

In the cool light of morning, in contrast to my mood last night when I was tired and grouchy to start with, I regret having posted this. There really is not enough information available for anyone to really know what is going on there.

There is an update posted on Will Grigg's blog, at the end of the original post that set me off in my grogginess last night. In the update he pulls back some and indicates that he was contacted by someone on the Federal side who says that, while the Patriot Act is not the appropriate way to deal with things there was certainly a minor crime committed. That may or may not be true but it does remind me that going off half cocked like I did is seldom a good idea :-/

Please disregard anything I post after my bedtime of 9:30 PM and I will endeavor in the future not to post in my sleep. :-)

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
