Berkman Center is looking for a managing director. 

Randy Morin has an OPML surfer app. 

A note about instant outlining for the OPML editor community. 

According to Kim Maffin, Americans are trying to get Sativex, a form of marijuana, from people (such as Kim) in Canada.  

3:30PM Eastern: Arrived safely in Sault Ste Marie, Michigan, USA. 

Congrats to Doc on the award and the moohlah. Let's have a party!  

The heat wave broke. It's 21 here today (about 70 F). Raining. Only going as far as the Soo today, but crossing over into the US, and heading across Michigan and Wisconsin and into Minnesota tomorrow. 

Taegan Goddard asked me to say when I re-subb'd to the Political Wire feed after he removed the ads, so it only seems fair to say that I unsubbed today, and that's the last time you'll hear about it here. He brought the ads back, without notice, without permission of the readers. It's pulling my attention into his stuff, and dammit that's my aggregator not his, and not FeedBurner's and not his advertiser's (who I won't name here). I think advertising is so over, and it really pains me to see a visionary like Goddard go this way. 

BTW, to OPML users, RSS Weather has OPML for all its geographies. Here's a link to their page for Ontario. Note in the upper-left corner a link to the "OPML file." Unfortunately they mistakenly use "title" in place of "text" so the headlines show up blank. Arrrgh. 

This is a test 

For the next sixty seconds this station will conduct a test of the Emergency Broadcast System.
