- A girls basketball coach at a small Christian school was fired for winning a game 100-0 and then refusing to apologize for beating the other team that badly. According to the administrators of his school, he should have set a "Christlike" example by not allowing his girls to do so well against the other team.
- Microsoft is building a version of Windows 7 specifically for the netbook market. That doesn't bode well for Linux in this market.
- Free speech is almost dead in the Netherlands. Darkly ironic in light of the fact that for a long time, the Dutch were the trend-setters in Europe on freedom of speech.
- Despite laying off thousands of workers, major IT companies will continue to look for more opportunities to get H1B visa workers. I understand their need for some of these people, and that a lot of the layoffs were administrative, but they could be at least mildly tactful about this.
- There might be a cure for type 1 diabetes based on stem cells, but so far no pharmaceutical is willing to help fund the research.

You mentioned about the US investing in IT for health recently. You may find this recent study interesting.
While I do not often comment on your site, I do, on occasion, follow it.
We have mutual blog friends, and know that you and I share a passion for technology.
My site is not focused on technology by any means, however I ran across this new software that I had to share with you.
There is a new software being developed for CENTCOM, called One Box, One Wire. The acronym for it is... OB1. :)
Wasnt able to find a contact email for you, so this post looked most fitting. Hope your okay with it.
