<p>Linux Live USB Creator (LiLi) is a great tool for anyone who wants access to a Linux computer in a USB drive. Imagine having your favorite Linux distribution, install and use your favorite apps, and gain access to your personal data, all self-contained and encrypted on a USB stick!</p>
<p>You can access your Linux desktop on a Windows computer without having to reboot an additional physical computer. Much like a virtual computer, LiLi has built-in virtualization feature so that you can access your Linux computer seamlessly within Windows.</p>
<p>Best of all, your Linux computer, apps and data goes everywhere with you, without a need for a computer. Use your Lili-loaded USB drive on any Windows machine and you get instant access.</p>
<p>Give it a try, Windows will never be lonely with Lili (and Linux by its side)! Kudos to the Lili team.</p>
<p>Linux Live USB Creator (LiLi) is Free, Open Source Software (FOSS) and available at <a href="http://www.linuxliveusb.com/en/download">http://www.linuxliveusb.com/en/download</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the recent week, new versions of two strong Linux distributions became publicly available. The user-friendly Linux Mint 11 is now available freely for all to use. I personally believe that this is the most intuitive flavor of Linux that is suitable for Windows users who want to migrate to Linux.</p>
<p>The favorite among  developers and IT professionals is the Linux distribution for desktop called Fedora. A new version called Fedora 15 also became available</p>
<p>Both versions sport separate new looks based on the GNOME 3 desktop technology as well as some exciting new features and software applications.</p>
<p>To download and get information on these versions:<br />
- Linux Mint 11 (www.linuxMint.com)<br />
- Fedora 5 (www.fedoraproject.org)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In a recent <a href="http://www.propublica.org/article/us-health-care-system-unprepared-for-major-nuclear-emergency" target="_blank">ProPublica report by Sheri Fink</a> (April 7, 2011), the author provided some insight into the nation&#8217;s preparedness for a major nuclear emergency. And it is a dire picture, it appears from the findings of the article. This online article comes at the heel of the recent natural disaster in Japan and the pending impact from the Fukushima nuclear power plant that is currently being played out.</p>
<p>As we have learned from previous responses and performances of all the concerning authorities vis-a-vis Katrina and BP/Deep Horizon oil spill, we are ill-prepared for something like the events in Japan now.</p>
<p>So, the question to ask ourselves is what should or can we do as individual citizens and members of the community in order to prepare for the worst?</p>
<p>With this in thought, we will start to add a category in this blog to address Emergency Preparedness issues. SoJustGreen, as a social-conscious entrepreneurial company that cares about open and green technologies, will soon offer emergency preparedness kits in its product offerings.</p>
