Considerations

As a for­mer jour­nal­ist, I believe in free­dom of speech. That means that I approve all reader com­ments as long as they are nei­ther spam nor unre­lated to the sub­ject mat­ter of the given post. As a result, com­ments may include pro­fan­ity and lan­guage that may be con­sid­ered hurt­ful towards par­tic­u­lar eth­nic­i­ties, reli­gions, races, or other groups. I think it is impor­tant that peo­ple com­mu­ni­cate hon­estly and openly about the sub­jects dis­cussed here. When­ever a per­son insults a group of peo­ple or presents inac­cu­rate facts, I will do my best to respond in the com­ments myself. I hope that other read­ers will do the same.

All com­ments must be writ­ten in Eng­lish, French, or Hebrew. I delete all com­ments that I can­not read.

All writ­ten mate­r­ial is copy­righted and may not be repub­lished any­where with­out my writ­ten con­sent. Excerpts of posts may be reprinted as long as an attri­bu­tion and link are provided.

All pho­tos pub­lished in my blog are pic­tures I have taken or are ones that I have copied legally from the pub­lic domain. If I have mis­tak­enly pub­lished a photo or any other mate­r­ial that is copy­righted, please notify my at sjsc­world­wide (at) gmail.com (with­out the spaces), and I will remove it immediately.

I accept var­i­ous types of online adver­tis­ing. If you are inter­ested, read the adver­tis­ing page and e-mail me at sjsc­world­wide (at) gmail.com (with­out the spaces). Adver­tise­ments will never impede any blog post that I wish to write.

My opin­ions are my own and not nec­es­sar­ily reflec­tive of any employer, client, adver­tiser, or university.
