We had Steers takeaways for lunch today and I think it has finally put me off Steers food for good. These burgers feel stodgy and heavy and a little nauseating when digesting. Blech! It also doesn’t help that Gina suddenly feels really ill, as if she has gastro or food poisoning. - http://pljcbsn.net/post...

This reminds me of a conversation I had with a client recently about how email is so much more effective than closed messaging systems and social networks. If only all these open source and interoperable technologies were implemented as well as the relatively closed ones! Even the closed platforms like Facebook use a lot of open source stuff.

The President, his penis and the Streisand Effect - http://webtechlaw.com/posts...
Background If you have missed the controversy that arose in the last few days about a depiction of President Zuma with his penis exposed called "The Spear", this is what it is all about: The painting is part of an exhibition by Brett Murray called "Hail to the Thief II", a sequel to his 2010 series "Hail to the Thief". It is currently on display at the Goodman Gallery which describes the exhibition as follows: Established Cape Town based artist Brett Murray returns to Goodman Gallery Johannesburg with Hail to the Thief II. This body of satirical work continues his acerbic attacks on abuses of power, corruption and political dumbness seen in his 2010 Cape Town show Hail to the Thief. In this sequel show, Murray’s bronzes, etchings, paintings and silk-screens form part of a vitriolic and succinct censure of bad governance and are his attempts to humorously expose the paucity of morals and greed within the ruling elite.

The ANC has already lost its court battle over #TheSpear painting. The painting has attracted far more attention since the ANC complained.
This controversy over #TheSpear satirical painting is a classic illustration of the #StreisandEffect @LindaLisaPeter @JessGrobler @RubyGold
