Not sure what the net neutrality debate is all about? This should help. .
.
Ideally, no government regulations sould be necessary to keep data moving unhindered across the net, but it has become obvious that without some kind of intervention by the FCC and other worldwide government agencies, cable and phone providers are intent on discriminating against the free flow of Internet traffic. Net neutrality is crucial to anyone who believes in an open and accessible Internet.
Two Republican FCC commissioners attended a meeting of Americans for Tax Reform on Monday afternoon, where they advocated against the agency chairman’s net-neutrality proposal, according to industry sources.
Commissioners Robert McDowell and Meredith Baker, who have each vocally opposed the policy, appear to be encouraging activists and advocacy groups to work against the proposal.

It’s been a slow grind but the march continues with another victory for women in what is (unfortunately) a man’s world.
After a revolt that unfolded over less than 24 hours and surprised lawmakers and the public, Australia’s Prime Minister Kevin Rudd stepped aside on Thursday and was replaced by his deputy, Julia Gillard, who became the country’s first female leader.
Faced with plunging approval ratings, rising opposition from within his center-left Labor Party and a looming federal election, Mr. Rudd agreed to step down rather than face a humiliating vote on his leadership. Party officials selected Ms. Gillard to take over.
Talking about Australia, has anyone ever tried their Vegemite? This concoction of yeast extract and axle grease spread on buttered toast is a staple food for all Australian children. I’ve spent some time in that beautiful country and you’d have to search long and hard to find a friendlier, more down to earth people than Australians. But this Vegemite thing…I just don’t get it.

Sarah Palin thinks that the B.P. oil spill is proof that we should be drilling in the Alaska National Wilderness Refuge. She posted this little nugget of wisdom on her Twitter account recently:
“Extreme Greenies: see now why we push ‘drill,baby,drill’ of known reserves & promising finds in safe onshore places like ANWR? Now do you get it?”
Yep, we get it alright. That is a great point. After all, it isn’t like oil companies have ever had damaging oil spills in Alaska….
Do you suppose that she could see the Exxon Valez from her house as well?
