- The purpose of the Loads of Linux Links project is to collect, organise, classify and maintain important URLs about Linux and the Open Source movement for all levels of Linux users. The LoLL project now has 4000+ links which are updated regularly. This project originally began as a service for the Victoria Linux Users' Group (VLUG) but in the true spirit of Linux, we decided to share this valuable resource with the wider Linux community by putting the Loads of Linux Links project on SourceForge. |

- Anonymous Patron writes "The Telegraph's David Robson tots up which books were chosen most often as 'books of the year' Proponents of a transatlantic Booker-style Prize, with American and British novels competing against each other, will have had their case strengthened in 2004. Which was the true novel of the year? The Line of Beauty by Alan Hollinghurst? Or The Plot Against America by Philip Roth? The book-of-the-year selections in the British press had the two novels running neck and neck. |

- OSNews writes "The law that governs nonprofit foundations requires that during its probationary period, at least 1/3 of its donations must be in the form of smaller donations from individuals, or it risks losing its tax-exempt status. Ironically, because of some very-generous donations, it now must make up for that with $30,400 in smaller donations by 12/31/2004. More info on their predicament an info on making donations are available on their web site." |

- I was just in Glasgow and there were some vegan/vegetarians with a stand and some pictures of pigs having their throats cut etc, and the slogans THE REAL FACE OF THE MEAT INDUSTRY. This just pissed me off, there were NO sources for these pictures, could've been 30 years old, who is to say that the animal wasn't already dead and they were simply butchering the carcass for consumption? I really do not see the point in vegetarianism. I think Maddox covered all the necessary points and would like to see a vegetarian come up with a reasonable argument against it. |
