Q&A: Red Hat founder sees irony in SCO lawsuit (Dec 11 2003 22:27 GMT) - Though the company he founded has been drawn into a legal dispute between The SCO Group and IBM, former Red Hat CEO Bob Young has not had much to say about the SCO dispute.

Hufball:-) (Dec 11 2003 22:26 GMT) - Bei so regnerischem Wetter wie heute, hole ich meine Regenmütze aus dem Schrank: ein schwarzes, labbriges aber sehr funktionelles Etwas. Selbige Mütze bewirkt bei den zweibeinigen Bewohnern dieses Haus meist, dass sie in ein breites, breites Grinsen verfallen, und wenn ich sie dann strafend mustere, sich räuspernd abwenden. Ich meine, wer will bei Wind und Regen schon wie Claudia Schiffer aussehen... |

Guns in Ohio (Dec 11 2003 22:25 GMT) - Last night the Ohio General Assembly approved a bill that would allow law-abiding citizens 21 and older to carry concealed firearms after undergoing a background check and completing 12 hours of training. The bill, which has been endorsed by Ohioans for Concealed Carry despite some qualms about the details, now goes to Gov. Bob Taft, who says he'll veto it. It looks like there are enough votes in the House to override the veto but not enough in the Senate. The state Supreme Court upheld Ohio's 144-year-old ban on concealed carry in September, overturning a state appeals court decision declaring the ban unconstitutional. |
