Greetings, everyone. Something of use to many of us - a festival for telling depression that it lies to all of us and how much our lives are doing well, still.
If you prefer more positive-attitude suggestions, these are "gifts" you can give yourself.
And if you'd prefer to share your great things with the world, there's Advent Knowledge, which hopes to recruit experts to provide nuggets of wisdom about their expertise in the same manner that an AdventCalendar provides bits of wisdom (and chocolate).
Out in the world today, the possibility that the art of ninjustu is passing away with practitioners of the art.
The mayor of Toronto said he would appeal a ruling that required he step downafter he violated conflict of interest rules that the mayor admitted he did not read when he came to the job. Anyone in the corporate world, or a non-elected post would be summarily dismissed for having done something that was wrong, whether they had read the rules or not. Example one: the Salvation Army's executive director in Ottawa was dismissed after financial irregularities alerted them to fraud with government monies given to the charity. Example two: the Toronto office of the Salvation Army had $2 million CDN worth of toys stolen from one of its warehouses, which will result in dismissals and charges against the thieves. Strange how elected office seemingly exempts you from the rules...
The House of Saud has implemented a system that alerts the caregivers/husbands of women when those women are leaving Saudi Arabia. But as a vital ally in the Middle East, I doubt anyone in the United States political sphere will advocate hard for the Saudis to modernize and stop repressing their women. That's only reserved for countries the United States doesn't like.
Inside the Untied States, a clear violation of the Establishment Clause requires Kentucky's Homeland Security building to recognize a god, presumably the Being Represented by the Tetragrammaton, on a plaque proclamation or risk a year in jail.
Elsewhere, an eighth conviction for Driving While Intoxicated landed a man a life sentence in prison.
In technology, the man who had his digital life erased by pranksters that wanted his Twitter handle says that the password is insufficient to protect us in the era of social engineering andlinked accounts and user names.
Welcome to opinions, where sometimes the very best thing you can do for your disabled friends is remember they are disabled.
Also, an excellent primer of suggestions for men on how to present as an ally, rather than as part of the enemy.
Last for tonight, the historical record preserved in the suitcases of the patients of an insane asylum who lived and died there.
