It took about five hours for this computer, "The Sickly Snail," to process a post that would normally have taken about an hour, but here at last is the Link Log. Categories: Business, Christian, Gardening, Music, News of the Extremely Stupid, Politics, Science, Writing.
Business
Susan
Cain describes how brilliant companies differ from ordinary
companies:
Interesting reflections on people's understanding of God's Wisdom, with a (free) raffle for copies of a new book:
Gardening
“Tidy
up”...mint? Mint?
Jack Welch's customer sounds crazy...like a fox. (Foreign readers,
that's an English idiom for behavior that appears to be stupid but is
actually self-serving in some devious way.)
Music
Here's
the link that's taken me more
than an hour,
today and yesterday, to paste into this log. Because it's a photo
collection. I believe it's a genuine, sincere effort to
share/memorialize a souvenir collection some readers may enjoy. But
it's images.
Clear, detailed images. Lots
of
images. So you might want to make sure you're using a computer with
enough memory to handle a lot of detailed images, unlike the one I'm
using today, before opening this link.

If you are able to "get off the grid" and meet your own needs for water, heat, energy, etc., one of the first results is that neighbors who are "on the grid" depend on you whenever things go wrong with "the grid." If your whole neighborhood is flooded, you can't help others, but in a more ordinary crisis--a power outage, a broken water pipe--you can, and you will. (How many people who were proud of their "all-electric homes" have warmed their hands over a wood fire at the Cat Sanctuary...) Here's a city judge who's determined that, in the event of any minor emergency, his jurisdiction will not have anywhere to go for help...
Politics
How
much have we gained from the demise of the ironically named “Patriot
Act”?
Science
Elizabeth
Barrette shares a link to new NASA space photos:

Unite! For those whose computers are fully operational (unlike “The
Sickly Snail” here), +Marsha Cooper is hosting another free link-up
where you can publicize one of your online pieces and read those of
other friendly writers.
