WOW - 28 digi-box channels streamed on the web. NICE... - Graham Steel
This stands out as the best url I've seen for months. Probably related to the fact that my TV digi-box in the lounge appears to be gubbed (aka broken), but that aside, this is a most fab development. - Graham Steel
Wondering how to respond to this. I'm one of 4 authors of a Manu (under construction, early stages) for which I managed to have the APC waived. I've previously advised Editorial Admin that I haven't yet uploaded the Manu as it is not yet ready for submission. Any suggestions as to how I might want to reply to the following email message?
"Thank you for your submission to XXXXXXXX. Dr XXXX has informed me you had replied to her email below. However, we have not yet received your full manuscript with title page and a cover letter. We cannot keep manuscripts on hold indefinitely at this stage and, if you have difficulties uploading your manuscript, please let us know." - Graham Steel
sounds like you think that you haven't submitted the MS, but the journal staff are convinced that you have. did you click any buttons that said "submit"? if not, it sounds like the journal needs to tidy up their processes or systems; if you did, then the journal staff are correct and need to close the submission: priority to a scientific discovery is assigned by the date that a paper... more... - Joe Dunckley
Thanks, Joe. I *think* I've sussed out the problem :) - Graham Steel

"The entertaining science series in which farmer Jimmy Doherty tries to discover what really goes into supermarket food. To do this he takes a surprising and novel approach - he sets up his own food factory in a barn." Great series - had not seen before. - Graham Steel

A Glasgwegian and a Cockney should be fun... Now please, sssshhhh. - Graham Steel
I, uh, what? I remember the furor when that presentation happened. I now see WHY the furor happened. Grotesquely poor judgment from Smith. I can't believe he put that on SlideShare, geesh. - D0r0th34
oh, that's horribly offensive. i had forgotten. - Christina Pikas
the fail was OMG STRONG with that one. for the record, I got caught up in that morass too, and I was totally in the wrong and admitted it publicly. I hadn't actually seen the slides until now. gaaaaaaaaaaaah. - D0r0th34
Saw the first slide and stopped right there. Then remembered the furor. Sigh. - Walt Crawford
oh, wait, *Graham* put this on SlideShare. Dude. Why? - D0r0th34
Why? I'm collating some items for a forthcoming post. I hadn't viewed those slides for ~2.5 years. Since the PPT and MP3 were separate files, I mashed them together on SlideShare. I was unaware of any furor. - Graham Steel
Yes, quite a lot of furor. In the States, showing pictures of black people with exaggeratedly stereotyped features in states of undress being tied up, hanged, and otherwise abused is considered extraordinarily hostile and demeaning conduct toward people who *still* suffer from racism. Using slavery as a metaphor likewise. As a courtesy toward everyone, not least Smith (who probably... more... - D0r0th34

"This week on Open Views I'm joined by Dr. Matthew Todd, lecturer in organic chemistry at the University of Sydney in Australia. Dr. Todd's work in drug discovery for tropical diseases such as schistosomiasis is internationally recognized. He is also a proponent of the use of the Free/Open Source model for doing biomedical research in areas such as tropical diseases and biochemistry". - Graham Steel
"Dr. Matthew Todd is currently a research advisor at The Synaptic Leap http://thesynapticleap.org/ , and we'll be talking about what Open Source in bio-medicine really means, how it is implemented, and what the impact of the Free/Open model is in biomedical research". - Graham Steel
