The EU

Google says the EU requires a notice of cookie use (by Google) and says they have posted a notice. I don't see it. If cookies bother you, go elsewhere. If the EU bothers you, emigrate. If you live outside the EU, don't go there.

Edward Brooke RIP


For John, BLUFA pioneer.  Nothing to see here; just move along.



Per The Boston Globe, former US Senator Edward Brooke passed away Saturday morning at the age of 95.

The lede:

Edward W. Brooke, the Massachusetts Republican who was the first African-American to be elected to the US Senate since Reconstruction, died Saturday morning in his Coral Gables, Fla., home.  He was 95, and his health had declined in the past couple of months.

Mr. Brooke served in the Senate from 1967 to 1979.  Elected attorney general in 1962 and reelected two years later, he was the first African-American to hold that office in any state.
