The below is a press release from the Federation for American Immigration Reform on what real, principled "immigration reform" would do for Americans. What a concept, huh?
I'll add two points:
1) The nationally suicidal extension of birthright citizenship to children born to illegal aliens should be challenged and overturned. 2) And adopting English as the official language of these United States would go a long way towards uniting the most diverse nation in the world. Si?
This ought to keep the anti-enforcement nuts babbling for a few days. Have fun!
From FAIR:
Principled Immigration Reform Puts Americans First
PR Newswire
WASHINGTON, Jan. 15, 2014
House GOP Leaders Must Rule Out Amnesty and Increased Immigration, Says FAIR
WASHINGTON, Jan. 15, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Under the leadership of Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio), House Republicans are drafting a set of immigration reform principles to guide them as they debate immigration in 2014. They plan to release these principles in time for their January 29th GOP retreat.
At the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), we hope these principles will finally place the interests of Americans first – an idea that is conspicuously absent from the reforms being proposed by the leaders of either party.
FAIR's core principles for immigration reform are:
No more amnesties. We can create clever euphemisms, but the only people we will be fooling are ourselves. Any policy that legalizes illegal aliens is amnesty and will lead to even more illegal immigration. This includes any "pathways to citizenship" or legalization programs that grant green cards or work visas.
Secure our borders. The last time our government measured border security, only 13 percent of our borders are under "operational control." That is simply unacceptable. To get the job done, we must use all the tools at our disposal. We must put more boots on the ground, add infrastructure (such as fencing) and implement proven technology to reduce the flow of illegal aliens across the border.
End visa overstays. Approximately 30-40 percent of illegal aliens are aliens who entered the U.S. legally, but overstayed their visas. To end this practice, we must add Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents and finally implement a biometric entry-exit system at all ports of entry—a system already required by law.
Stop the hiring of illegal workers. Unless we remove the incentives to enter the U.S. illegally, we will not stop illegal immigration. We must eliminate the jobs magnet by requiring all employers use E-Verify and demand rigorous worksite enforcement that holds both employers and illegal workers accountable.
Robustly and uniformly enforce our immigration laws. Policies that direct law enforcement to ignore violations of our laws undermine the rule of law and are inherently unjust to law-abiding legal immigrants. We must enforce our existing immigration laws, eliminate fraud throughout the system, and prohibit the adoption of policies by state/local governments that encourage illegal immigration or provide benefits to illegal aliens. Enforcement doesn't require mass deportation. If we enforce our laws and remove the incentives to remain here, many illegal aliens will go home on their own.
Implement a merit-based immigration system. Our immigration system should choose immigrants based on an objective assessment of who is most likely to benefit the economic and social interests of our nation.
End family chain migration. Family-based immigration must be limited to spouses and unmarried minor children. Entitlements for extended family migration lead to an immigration system that is not based on merit, runs on autopilot and fosters exponential growth in immigration.
Support the American worker. American workers are the best and most productive in the world. They are eager to work. What they need is the opportunity to compete for jobs at fair wages, not unfair competition created by massive guest worker programs. In addition, just because we could benefit from some skilled immigration doesn't mean we should rubber stamp visas for every applicant with certain skills. We should develop and encourage our own STEM professionals, not discourage them by flooding the labor market.
Limit overall immigration. We are a nation of over 315 million people. We need to consider how much we want to grow and how that growth will affect jobs, our environment, resources and quality of life in America.
About FAIR
Founded in 1979, FAIR is the country's largest immigration reform group. With over 250,000 members nationwide, FAIR fights for immigration policies that serve national interests, not special interests. FAIR believes that immigration reform must enhance national security, improve the economy, protect jobs, preserve our environment, and establish a rule of law that is recognized and enforced.

English language version, VIDEO, 12 minutes: Univision's Jorge Ramos interviews D.A. King (me) of the Georgia-based Dustin Inman Society. Original version aired in Spanish on the August 18, 2013 edition of the 'Al Punto," Univision's Sunday morning current affairs show.
We are grateful to Mr. Ramos and the Univision network for the opportunity to reveal the pro-enforcement side of the amnesty battle. We note that the MSM should take a moment to consider similar allowance. Mr. Ramos' well-done website is very educational.
From that website http://jorgeramos.com/en/ :
"Jorge Ramos…has been called "Star newscaster of Hispanic TV" and "Hispanic TV's No. 1 correspondent and key to a huge voting bloc" by The Wall Street Journal. Time magazine included him in the list of "the 25 most influential Hispanics in the United States" and Newsweek in its list of 50 political and media figures…
A survey conducted by the Pew Hispanic Center found that Ramos is the second most recognized Latino leader in the country. Latino Leaders magazine chose him as one of "The Ten Most Admired Latinos" and "101 Top Leaders of the Latino Community in the U.S."
"Ramos is like an amalgam of Brian Williams and Keith Obermann, though with more gravitas than either." (The Daily Beast)
The Miami Herald said, "As household names go, Jorge Ramos is huge…in Miami, Los Angeles and Houston, his newscast consistently beats out all the other networks for the top ratings". More than 2 million people tune in daily to his newscast and almost a million to his Sunday morning political show. (The Nielsen Company)
He has interviewed some of the most influential leaders in the world: Barack Obama, John McCain, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Sarah Palin, Harry Reid, Newt Gingrich, Mitt Romney, John Edwards, Al Gore, George Bush Sr., John Kerry, Fidel Castro, Hugo Chávez, Felipe Calderon and dozens of Latin American presidents.
Jorge Ramos is an immigrant. He came to the United States as a student in 1983. In November 1986, at age 28, he became one of the youngest national news anchors in the history of American television… "
We happily make the Spanish language version available For our foreign language speaking friends.
Thank you Jorge Ramos! Muchas Gracias sir!
Julia, the imaginary illegal alien (if only they all were) and her adventures speak volumes about illegals and pandering politicians.
See Julia's adventures. Hat tip: Center for Immigration Studies and The Blaze.
BTW: Illegal aliens are living so deep in the shadows that they were on hand in the Senate galleries for this Thursday's 68-32 vote for the Schumer-Rubio amnesty bill, and they yelled out Obama's campaign chant when the vote was announced.
Both Georgia's GOP U.S. Senators voted against the Rubio led amnesty scam.
Here is another chance to hear the truth about the Senate amnesty scam. And to find out what the agenda-driven MSM has been hiding from you.
So, did you already know the amnesty bill would allow the leftists to help guide, "educate" and supervise the would-be replacement voters if the scam were to pass? And that they would be paid for it with tax dollars? Wait- did you know that already deported aliens could come back to the good old USA and be legalized, then bring in their families? That is true! Funny that our U.S. Senators haven't made a fuss about that isn't it?
FYI: The Senate will likely have a final vote on the legislation to end immigration enforcement next week. Neither Georgia Senator has picked a side. No kidding.
From the Daily Caller an educational video you won't see on "the news." : (just) "Six big problems with the immigration bill from someone who has actually read it."
"Former New York lieutenant governor Betsy McCaughey bets "you can't find five members of Congress who have read" the Senate "Gang of Eight" immigration bill.
The former Democrat is experienced at reading large bills the Congress seems inclined to pass without reading, such as Obamacare. She tabs them, underlines them and tries to see the big picture of what will happen if the provisions of the bill are implemented.
In an interview with The Daily Caller's Ginni Thomas, McCaughey brought her dog-eared immigration bill with her and pointed to it repeatedly."
The Democrat controlled Senate will begin consideration of the Schumer – Rubio amnesty sometime today and could vote on it as early as next week. It cannot pass without some GOP votes.
Barack Obama is pushing the bill and assuring Republicans that another amnesty will help their party. Because, as we all know, helping the GOP is tops on Obama's agenda!
Some Republicans, maybe including both Georgia Senators, will vote for the bill.
We think a picture is indeed worth a thousand words.
Here is info for the people who keep calling us asking what to do: contact Senator Johnny Isakson at his Atlanta office. Please know the illegal alien lobby has been calling for six months.
People are (finally) starting to ask questions about the Schumer-Rubio amnesty legislation that will soon be considered on the floor of the U.S. Senate. The word is that there will be a final vote sometime around June 10. Maybe you have noticed by now: The MSM is doing a stellar job of passing on the talking points from the open borders lobby, but a poor job of allowing the average American to understand the actual bill.
It is a scam that would legalize 11-20 million now undocumented Democrats and would not result in "secure borders." Making it a do-over of 1986, only this time it's is even worse.
So, for anyone who wants to have the facts, we provide a link to "Top 40 Reasons to Oppose the Gang of Eight Amnesty Bill", from FAIR." The truth about the bill comes off a little different than the Marco Rubio radio ads produced by "conservative" Mark Zuckerburg, doesn't it? What's that? You haven't been told that Rubio's media crusade is funded by liberal Facebook billionaire Mark Zuckerberg who wants ever cheaper computer/tech workers?? Hmm..
Stay tuned: Next, we explore how U.S. Senator Johnny Isakson may vote on the 2013 amnesty-again scam.
Take a stroll down "it's not amnesty" memory lane with this short video produced two years ago by FAIR and noted by Frontpage magazine. In it you can watch the actual sales pitch for amnesty in the United States House of Representatives from 1986, and you can hear the slogans and contrived talking points of the day.
See if they don't sound rather familiar.
Thrill to seeing a younger Chuck Schumer explain that the only answer is legalization and that the illegal aliens are victims. Try hard to remember that the American people were promised that the 1986 legalization was a "one time" event and would solve the problem forever.
While you watch, try hard to convince yourself that anybody selling amnesty this year has any more intention of keeping their word than in the 80's.
Try to convince yourself that were the Rubio/Schumer amnesty scam to pass , the illegal alien lobby would stop being the illegal alien lobby.
Try to convince yourself that we really need the 33 million new low-wage job seekers the Senate amnesty bill would bring in during the next decade.
Try hard to forget that it is a coalition of big-business and the tribalists in the radical left who sponsor these charlatans.
Try to convince yourself that Marco Rubio is really an honorable, conservative man with the best interests of the USA in mind when he shills for Schumer and another amnesty.
Try to convince yourself that this time, it would be different…
Watch the video:
Helpful bonus: Contact U.S. Senator Johnny Isakson through his Website.
Below we link to a short YouTube video produced in 2007 – during the last congressional attempt to repeat the amnesty of 1986 and to expand immigration into the United States. You know, because we need more workers so badly .
The video was recorded during a seminar staged by immigration lawyers who were hired to instruct employers on how get around American laws designed to protect American workers. As you will see, these attorneys are openly instructing willing employers on how not to hire American workers. So they can employ cheaper imported foreign workers without getting caught when they illegally pass over American job applicants.
Why? Because foreign labor works for less than American labor.
Because massive, immigration and the war on enforcement is all about the money and political power.
Because the fact that 20-some million Americans – including real, legal immigrants who came here in good faith – are out of a job or under employed mean nothing when it comes to the quarterly profit report.
With the help and protection of many in the biased and complicit media, the open borders rope-sellers in the U.S. have for years been screaming about a "labor shortage" and advocated for another amnesty and increased immigration. And then, even more foreign "temporary" workers.
Many of the replacement workers come to the U.S. on what is called an H1B visa. Although the visa is usually referred to by the press as a "guest worker visa" the holder can apply for a green card – and then stay in the U.S. permanently.
An H1B dependent employer must attest that by hiring a H1B worker, it is not displacing any US worker for a similar position within 90 days before or after filing a H1B petition. The employer must also attest that he has done a certain amount of advertising to recruit American workers.
This is a first in a series of videos to be offered here to educate readers on the scam that is the Gang of Eight amnesty/immigration expansion legislation. The current bill would roughly double the number of H1B workers admitted to the U.S.
And add about 33 million new job-seekers in the next decade.
Watch the video.
Listen for: "I get 50 resumes, my God, the last thing I want to do is interview these applicants." And "our goal is clearly not to find a qualified U.S. worker." And "our objective is to…" And "…Hoping not to find a qualified worker…"
Then consider calling Senator Johnny Isakson's Cobb County office (770-661-0999) -to ask him about the alleged "labor shortage" and how he plans to vote on the Gang of Eight amnesty "we need more workers" bill.
Raise your hand if you really believe these angry and fearless anti-enforcement rallies would become a thing of the past with another capitulation to the illegals. If so, you will likely believe that third-world poor will stop "looking for a better life" by breaking into the USA illegally. And that having made Americans out of the now illegal aliens, you would never hear the "jobs Americans will not do" nonsense supporting the next "it's not amnesty." And that the legalization of 1986 didn't increase illegal immigration. And that the RubiObamAmnesty would somehow be different than 1986.
Given near-instant "probationary legal status," the newly legalized aliens would not begin screaming at the Capitol for an end to the "racist" probationary status and "full citizenship now!" Right?
And you will likely believe that the still angry, low-wage, big-government, former illegal aliens would gratefully cast their ballots for small government, low-tax conservative Republicans after they won the right to vote in the nation they invaded. And that the same Republicans in Washington DC who want to cave in now would somehow find their courage to stand up against the big business interests that are pushing them to support another legalization today.

Thread: 2312 vs Existence.

2312 vs Existence.
So, been looking at both these books. And I'm sure I will buy them both, but, I'm in the bad habit (as most of us are) of buying to many books, and never reading them in a timely fashion.
Hence, which one is better? I like my scifi full of wonder, and not super hard sf. Loved the Hyperion Cantos, and most stuff by Peter Hamilton.
Any thoughts??
August 18th, 2012, 03:54 PM #2
I've not had the best of experiences reading KSR, I tried Red Mars three times without getting even one third of the way through it. I then tried Galileo's Dream and didn't think much of it. Both were bland, dry and boring.
Existence, on the other hand, was only the second Brin I read and I thoroughly enjoyed it. In fact, I might notch it as my top SF novel of the year.
Right, I know it isn't exactly fair for me to compare the two books, but I can compare the two writers based on my limited experience reading them.
August 19th, 2012, 07:48 AM #3
Existence is the superior of the two books, by a bit. Brin successfully integrates his portrait of life in the future with a compelling plot. Robinson does not, and seems to be include the plot as an afterthought which does not really work. Robinson's prose skills are slightly better (though Brin's have improved a lot with this book, though he's always been decent), but Brin's novel simply works as a complete package a lot better.

For me the characters in Revelation Space were uninteresting and uninvolving. I could not care less what happened to them. I thought the spider room on the outside of the ship was a really dumb design so it was just done that way so the spider room could be stuck into the shuttle so they could escape.
I just think there is too much "you're supposed to like this" attitude sometimes. I have no problem with people not liking scientific accuracy, simply acknowledge inaccuracy in works that don't have it. In a way the technology and the planet were more important than the characters in Red Mars. They are props for the backdrop rather than the other way around. But how else do you colonize a planet not in a state to be survived on by humans? If realism is boring so be it. Don't waste time on the book. But it would be nice to be able to tell that before spending a lot of time trying to read it. Probably describing it as hard SF is not enough. Some guidelines for specifying the "literary characteristics" needs to be created. Maybe Bujold could have done a better job than Robinson with the same story but maybe she could not come up with that story.

Gardeners love plants, no news in that. Often this enthusiasm results in beds and borders planted all over a property, with no rhyme or reason. A landscape filled with planting areas that don't relate to each other doesn't look good or feel right. What's needed are transitions. When the transitions between garden areas are good, a landscape flows.
Ted Nyquist and his wife, Gidget, bought a house on nearly 7 acres in Bartlett, Illinois, about 50 miles west of Chicago. Nyquist traveled for business before he retired and would often visit arboreta and public gardens for inspiration. Nowadays, he works in his garden mostly single-handedly while Gidget uses her artistic skills in potting up the containers.
Nyquist didn't have a master plan when he began setting out his garden 23 years ago, but this former organic chemist and avid photographer who is also president of the Midwest Chapter of the American Rhododendron Society is adept at tying the varied spaces together. Whether we have small spaces or large ones, we can all learn from the design elements he uses to guide visitors through his garden.
Make a Statement
The first, and most obvious, way to announce a new space is to create an entry. At the top of Nyquist's circular driveway he placed an ornamental iron arbor that can't be missed. It frames a vista of the garden, extending an invitation to enter.
To draw attention to the entry of a different garden area, Nyquist uses containers, and in another instance, he built a frame around a door.
"I needed something at a spot going around a curve in the yard from one garden into another," says Nyquist. He found a large, antique-looking door in California, brought it home, and then built around it to make it self-standing in the yard, creating the passageway he needed from one area to another.
Adding recognizable features at human scale, such as the doors, arbors, and benches that Nyquist uses, is like placing magnets in a garden, says Bob Hursthouse, a landscape architect, horticulturist, and lecturer in nearby Bolingbrook. "We relate to them. That's why every garden should have a bench," he says.
Set the Path
A wood-chip path leading through a wood shifts visitors between garden areas. Nyquist calls this his "strolling garden." He wanted it to be secluded from other areas of his property, so after laying the path near the edge of the woods, he flanked it with dense plantings of Canadian hemlocks, junipers, rhododendrons, and other shrubs that would hide the rest of the yard year-round. "I wanted lots of structure and a visible barrier," he said.
On the other hand, an open expanse of lawn also makes a great transition between spaces. The central lawn area provides a 360-degree view, including entrances to several different locations in the yard.
"A lawn is an area you can move across comfortably," says Hursthouse, drawing a comparison between walking on smooth, level grass and the more uneven tread of a wood-mulched path. Loose path material slows us down as we walk through a space. Walking onto a lawn with its even feel underfoot invites a quicker pace, taking us onward. And visually, a lawn is a unifying and simplifying element, says Hursthouse. The smooth texture and restful green color lead our eye to the next focal point.
Draw the Eye
Focal points draw us to different areas in a garden. Nyquist dots terra-cotta pots throughout his landscape. Repeating the same material not only pulls a person through the various spaces but also ties different spaces together.
Continuity is a critical element of the garden, says Hursthouse, because it serves as a compass for way-finding. "As humans, we relate to order and structure. We find comfort in that. It helps define an area to repeat an element throughout a space."
In contrast, the blue ceramic pots in Nyquist's conifer garden serve as exclamation points and draw the eye to that particular bed. In the same vein, a formal fountain at the center of the rose garden stands out against the more rustic elements throughout the rest of the yard. At the end of a long arbor lined with hostas, Nyquist placed a stone fountain as a destination to entice visitors through the structure.
Change the Levels
Elevation changes also mark movement from one area to another. At the driveway arbor, massive stone steps lead visitors down a steep incline from the public area and into a more intimate garden space.
Change in elevation can effect the pace of a garden, says Hursthouse. A gradual shift is more inviting than a quick change in levels. "For instance, a wide, gracious stair beckons you," he says.
A sunken area or room can help define a space or emphasize its importance; this is particularly useful when making function or style changes in a garden. For instance, an effective design element is to have a seating area that is just a little bit lower than the rest of the garden.
Play with Styles
There's no strict rule that says gardeners have to keep the same style throughout their gardens; however, a style change should be a pleasant surprise, not a garish contrast that competes with other elements. Most of Nyquist's garden is rustic country, but a formal rose garden is tucked into one corner of the yard separate from the rest, while a more Asian-looking specimen conifer bed edges the lawn area.
Just as there may be different decorating styles in the rooms in a home, the same thing can happen in a yard, says Hursthouse. "In a house, there may be a transition through French doors from a traditional dining room into a casual family area." A formal garden outside may have a terminus such as a wall or hedge, beyond which is a less formal area, such as a grove of trees, he says.
Combining different styles fits our modern lifestyle, where homeowners may want an outdoor entertaining space for adults with a nearby play area for the children.
Create Mystery
Perhaps the best reason to learn how to create attractive and effective transitions within a garden is to engender a sense of mystery, so that a garden's treasures may be discovered and savored. Nyquist says that Jens Jensen, an early-20th-century Midwest landscape architect who was known for his naturalistic style, was a master at this. "Jensen used curves a lot rather than straight lines," he says, "so that you want to go and see what's at the other end of that curve."
Hursthouse likes gardens that entice someone from the threshold of a house into the outdoors. He loves it when a person stands in a doorway and asks, "I wonder what the yard looks like from over there, what is around that corner?" Once people are drawn outside, they can be guided, using transitions, to discover the rest of the garden and to experience and enjoy it. •

Those Coils are stupid money though, right? In a logical sense, a hundred pounds of chicken schitt (mad boards that are crap boards) are still pounds of chicken schitt and you can't ride chicken schitt and get stoked. If these sticks are durable then I'll def think of investing.

Nabe (Yosenabe/Japanese Hot Pot)
Fall is in the air, even here in Southern California. Days are getting shorter and cooler. These past few days, the sky has been dull and wintry and this morning, it rained.
I start craving foods that keep me warm—soups, hearty stews, and hot pots. To me, nothing tastes quite as invigorating and uplifting than a meal of simmering hot soup or stew. I made nabe, or Japanese hot pot, a delicious medley of ingredients steeped in dashi broth and cooked inside a clay donabe, or nabe pot.
My friend La Fuji Mama took me shopping at the Japanese market here: kombu and bonito flakes for dashi, cookware, usukushi shoyu (Japanese light soy sauce) and harusame (cellophane noodles). La Fuji Mama lived in Tokyo twice and knows how to pick out the best brands on the shelves. It was great to have someone who knows Japanese to shop with. Thanks so much, Rachael!
The nabe I made is called Yosenabe, or "Anything Goes" Hot Pot according to "Japanese Hot Pots: Comforting One Pot Meals" by Tadashi Ono and Harris Salat. (I attended the book launch party in New York recently.) Yosenabe is probably one of the most popular hot pots in Japan; it's highly versatile when it comes to the ingredients used. Chicken, mushrooms, Napa cabbage, Tokyo negi, tofu, and assortment of seafood of your choice: head-on shrimp, scallops, oysters, fish fillet, clams, etc. The chicken has to stay, according to the cookbook.
How did it taste? Well, I will let my photo gallery above speaks for itself. After the nabe meal, I felt like I might even start to appreciate colder weather as I have fifty (50) recipes from the Japanese Hot Pots cookbook to take me through the gloomy days.

This looks super yummie! Nothing beats a nice pot of boiling soup on cold winter days, I might have to try this with miso paste instead since Japanese grocery products are so hard to find in the Midwest.
This is perfect for today's SoCal weather. I wasn't hungry until I viewed these pics!
Nabe sounds so good right about now… this really would be a comforting one pot meal.
I really do need to get around to making some kind of soup, its been way too cold in Maryland lately. The pictures are really nice and make me realllllly wish I had some. Going to have to make some this weekend =]
I was just thinking of making nabe as it's getting cold on the East Coast. Beautiful!
I'm so glad we got to go shopping! It was way more fun to have a partner in crime. Your nabe looks absolutely delish–perfection in a pot!
This looks amazing. Send me a bowl!
mmm come and warm my bellay! In the winter, my family has shabu shabu / hot pot every Sunday… my fav time :)
I did not know you used "bonito" in english as well! For me "bonito" has always been the one coming from the Cantabrian sea in North Spain.
The hot pot looks good indeed. Japanese are masters in the art of hot pot, and this is a very good example of it! I guess you use gaz, if you can heat the clay pot without it breaking, it does not work with vitroceramics…
We always get nabe when we order takeout – what fun to make it at home! We'll definitely have to give this one a try. ~ Belle
The first time I came across Nabe…I thought it sound like a "bad" word..:O
Love hot pot especially during freezing weather in London! Yours are very nicely done!!
Wow, that looks super yummy! It's been raining here all day and I'm sure something like that would be just perfect for this weather.
Yours looks great! I always seem to over cook mine… Is there a certain trick to it? I feel like it is in there for only a few minutes and BAM I over cooked the seafood. :( Maybe I should cook it on lower heat? Or not cover it?
Thank you for helping me in advanced!
Do you have a recipe for the chicken meatballs sometimes used in the nabe? In Honolulu, we have a wonderful restaurant that serves nabe and the meatballs are so great.
I have no idea what is DASHI

yummy looking. it would be a blast to cook . the only part that makes it hard is that in montana very few stores carry hardly any oriental ingredients . hmm i wonder if there are any reasonable bulk shipping for non- perishable goods to my area. thanks for all the neat recipes.
Hi Bee, I have been following your blog for a while.Thanks for all the great recipes! I live in Tokyo with my Japanese husband and thought I'd share with you how Japanese people eat nabe. At the end of the meal, after finishing all the seafood and vege, bring the remaining broth to a boil. Then, add about 1 bowl of cooked rice into the broth. Stir and let the rice soak up most of the broth, then turn off the heat. Pour a beaten egg into it and stir. This is called zousui. You can also add spring onions, nori seaweed or chicken meat if you'd like. It's very delicious! :)
Hi Bee,
I have frozen dashi stock using only bonito flakes and water. Can I just add the konbu to make your version of dash stock? Thanks.
I often purchase Asian ingredients at vitacost.com. They have Eden Foods products including kombu and bonito flakes. I always buy enough to receive free shipping.
Omg…I can finally have one of my favorites recipe make at home! thanks to this recipe…Omg I can wait to introduce it to the family and to my daughters am a lover of Asian food. Thank you for the recipe.

1) If you're concerned about building proprietary software with a recently open sourced compiler - might want to look elsewhere for help. IANAL and IANYL
2) If you're brittle - might want to unplug now
3) I don't like the guy
4) License issues in general waste time - No discussion needed - point them at the license and tell them to go help themselves.
It wasn't a bad day, but I'd like to set a precedent for the reaction to licensing questions. (Admittedly a FAQ on this wouldn't hurt) There are numerous pro bono and paid legal services which are the appropriate place to ask. A professional building high quality proprietary software wouldn't ever ask this on irc. If he had said *open source* software I'd have cut him some slack.
Me and the other posters here have made an effort to understand the licensing situation around EkoPath, both as it applies to open source projects, as well as others. Compiling all this information (no pun intended) into a clearly written Wiki document or something would be immensely helpful, and reduce the amount of future discussion necessary on the topic of licenses. "Contact your lawyer" is not always a practical or even necessary step when evaluating software; various organizations go to great lengths to reduce the amount of guesswork (or lawyer-work) required for a software developer to somewhat reliably determine the conditions under which he may use a piece of software. Free Software and Open Source licenses are specially qualified to be interpreted in a user-friendly way in a publicly-accessible document, as opposed to EULAs, because FOSS licenses are used so widely. Since each company has their own unique EULA, making a wiki or other public document for each EULA would be incredibly boring and counter-productive. Also, for most EULA software, the distributor does make a genuine attempt to inform users, in clear language, exactly under what conditions they may use, copy and distribute the software.
As an open source developer, the discussion we've been having is exactly as relevant as it would be if I were a proprietary developer. Because some of the legitimately open source software I write, is not licensed under a GPL-compatible license. But in practice, the software we write, despite being liberally licensed, has always been open source, and the community built up around it is steadfastly in favor of keeping it open source, as much as possible, just by convention (if, indeed, the BSD license doesn't strictly demand it).
Unless you define open source differently than I do, a BSD-licensed project is every bit as open source as EkoPath. But, if the conclusions that I and other posters in this thread have derived are at all true, then we can not distribute our project's compiled binaries if we build them with EkoPath, even if we deliberately include exactly the same source code used to produce the binaries. So it seems that you speak in terms of "open source", and allude to being "open source-friendly", but a project that is above-board and openly willing to remain open source indefinitely, is unable to take full advantage of your software. That's my understanding, though I could be wrong.
If this account is (1) accurate, and (2) perfectly acceptable to you, then there is nothing further for us to discuss. But I think that, at least, to more precisely capture which particular subset of open source software that you are supporting under the license terms as I understand them, you should use the term copyleft free software that is compatible with the GPL, or for shorthand, GPL-compatible software.
So in the quote above, you might have succinctly cleared up our doubts by saying instead: "If he had said *GPL-compatible software* I'd have cut him some slack."
Unless, of course, we have completely misinterpreted the licensing situation of EkoPath, in which case I apologize for my ignorance!
He asked an important question, IMO. I have a few projects too that are "free" but not compatible with the GPL. Asking about it does not constitute license trolling. Though if someone's English totally sucks, as in this case, it might appear so.
Apologies Geri.
To help clarify the license question
1) GCC injects small pieces of code in your application which are GPLv3 licensed (Our crt* code, which is *very* small, isn't GPL)
2) GCC runtimes are GPLv3 in part (I assume some (all?) may be LGPL. In any event ours are not)
Once again I am not a lawyer and don't take this as legal advice.
My new signature
The opinions expressed here are not approved, reviewed, acknowledged nor do they represent my current employer.
..and if it turns out to be totally proprietary, then this compiler suite isn't going to be used much i dont think. maybe phoronix should do some investigative reporting on the subject...?
