that electrical devices in the town of Canneto di Caronia, Sicily
have been spontaneously combusting. It's gotten so bad that the entire
town had to be evacuated. The power company removed the town from the
grid and put it on a generator, until the generator also caught fire.
"Every time some new scientist comes to town, they arrive
thinking the whole thing has been invented or that they're going to
solve the mystery in two minutes. They've all been wrong."
[...]
"Someone wrote to us saying the solution was to sacrifice a black goat
and collect its blood. At some point, that's going to start looking
like a good idea."
Weird.

dwelling, and has set up a website to raise funds for it
and to share progress updates.
The floorplan sketch that Rob has provided on his info page doesn't
quite follow my interpretation of Tolkien's description of Bilbo
Baggins' Hobbit Hole. But even so, it is an interesting project, both
from a construction and a funding standpoint.
Anybody want to help me out with some cash for my upcoming kitchen
remodel? I'll accept cash, check, money order, or PayPal.

Fired Will Carpenter for writing a short story. "Some kind of
harrassment," they said, and since Texas is an at-will employment
state, there's not much he can do about it. Is
this story a valid means
of self-expression or a harrassing glimpse into jilted anger? I've
stumbled across more and more news stories about people being fired
for writing, and students
expelled for
writing "dark poetry" in the classroom. How much do you
have to keep secret from your classmates and co-workers?
