I saw the NOAA is conducting a survey regarding NOAA Weather Radio to collect information that will be used in their modernization efforts of same.
Since Canada has shut their "Weatheradio" system down, I am glad that the NOAA is seeking to update this system rather than dismantle it.
It only took me a minute to reply. The survey closes in two days, don't put it off.

I take a few moments to reflect on Memorial Days...In the service, I was always aware that death was close enough...through my duties as a Corpsman and the duties of people I worked with...
Dear Linux folks: I loaded Zorin onto an original surface book, I's like to get the touch screen to function. Suggestions or packages?
Thanks in advance....

Africa: Women More Likely Than Men to Die During an Ebola Outbreak: UN Body: [allAfrica] Geneva -- History has repeatedly shown us that women are more likely than men to die during an Ebola outbreak, the chief of humanitarian action of UN Women has said in Geneva. http://newsfeed.facilit8.network/TSgczC #Ebola #WomenHealth #PublicHealth #GenderInequality #UNWomen
@bich Health in African countries is difficult, and, a Public Good. Not only for that continent, but this one. USAID was a fundamental part of supporting these efforts and the ACDC...We should reinstate that funding at the earliest opportunity.

@gottalaff.bsky.social I suspect he does think it is cool...to differentiate between kinetic, chemical, radiological, etc. What an ass...
@realTuckFrumper I am inclined to agree. The "system" of the military is designed around following orders, civilian oversight is the responsibility of the Congress & Senate.....fix the problem there first. That does not mean I take issue with poor federal policy.

"The species of Ebola virus causing an outbreak in Congo that has killed nearly 120 people is less common than other Ebola viruses, which is complicating the response because there are no specific treatments or vaccines."
The destruction of USAID likely has a role in how much this has spread before a public health emergency was declared.
