Keynote Theme Park intros two themes,
gives one away
06/11/2004 08:11 AMCanadian developer Keynote Theme Park has released two new themes for
Apple's Keynote presentation software.
Da
Vinci (US$19.95) features 61 transparent versions of the master
artist's notebook illustrations that you can use for slide backgrounds
in addition to three fonts, including one based on his own
handwriting. It was created in 1024 x 768 resolution and includes a
Photoshop Action that turns any image into a sepia-toned illustration,
making it blend with Da Vinci's work. In addition, the company has
released
Titanium
Jr., a free 800 x 600 resolution theme that comes with five photo
cutouts. Finally, Keynote Theme Park has also posted on its Web site a
video tutorial that shows how to create photo cutouts for any
slide background.

Michael says:
With all the talk on weird theme parks on Boing Boing lately, I
thought readers might enjoy this New York Times article on a dinosaur
theme park in Orlando that is run by creationists.Apparenly, it
explains that dinosaurs were created on "the 6th day" and the Grand
Canyon is evidence of Noah's ark. Amazing quote: "There are a lot of
creationists that are really smart and debate the intellectuals, but
the kids are bored after five minutes," said Mr. Hovind, who looks
boyish at 51 and talks fast. "You're missing 98 percent of the
population if you only go the intellectual route." Intellectual
route?

Buddhist Hell Theme Park in Vietnam
Buddhist Hell Theme Park in Vietnam
05/02/2004 11:06 AM 
Following up on
this earlier post, BoingBoing reader Hostile17 says,
"Another example of an Asian site featuring the torments of hell. It's
not in a museum though, it's in a theme park in [Vietnam]. I mean,
three words: Buddhist Theme Park! I was a little baffled by the
concept myself but it was a lot of fun. Rides and stuff, plus this
animatronic display of the [twelve] torments of hell for people who'd
committed particular crimes. It was a little like Pirates of the
Carribean, only incredibly lame, tech-wise.
There was one specific punishment for gamblers, one for adulterers,
another for drug-takers. It was kind of amusing how different members
of the family I was with laughed nervously at different exhibits. If
you're ever in Saigon, you have to visit, it's truly strange."
The park has a website where you can watch short MPEG movies of
attractions, including the Hell exhibit. The whole park is surreal --
check out the wicked cool photos these gigantic swimming pools with
faux-stone monuments of gods watching over. This one -- an old man with a waterfall beard -- is my
favorite.

Conspiracy theory of the day: Dell
Laptop with built-in keylogger color="red">(Update: HOAX)
Conspiracy theory of the day: Dell
Laptop with built-in keylogger color="red">(Update: HOAX)
06/17/2005 03:34 PMMark Frauenfelder:
Reader comment: Marc Hedlund presents the
best argument for this thing being a hoax: "A search for the name of
the FOIA officer in the letter turns up this letter, which uses the
same logo and the same address as the one in the 'keylogger' story.
Note also that the 'file number' is the *same* on the two letters. It
looks to me like the keylogger poster just overlaid new text in the
body of the letter." Link
I'm not sure what to make of this, really. This website has a
report by an anonymous person who says he bought a new Dell laptop and
discovered what he claims is a "keyboard logger" -- a chip that stores
keystrokes. He says he called Dell's tech support and asked them about
it:
"they said, and I quote, 'The intregrated service tag
identifier is there for assisting customers in the event of lost or
misplaced personal information.' He then hung up."
He then call the police, who told him to call the Department of
Homeland Security:
"they told me to submit a Freedom of Information Act
request. This is what I got:" (Click on thumbnails for
enlargement)

Is this a hoax? The page seems to be the only accessible page on the
site (www.chromance.de), which has a German top level domain.
Link (Thanks,
Rev!)
Update: Phil Torrone says: "I did an
investi-MAKE-ion. I think the keylogger thing is a hoax. the images from the site
are from here. The
memo/letter thing of course looks fakey too.
"I think
this is far scarier." (This points to an article that says the
U.S. Department of Justice is looking into making ISPs store "records
of e-mail, browsing or chat-room activity months after ISPs ordinarily
would have deleted the logs -- if they were ever kept in the first
place.")
Reader comment: Tian says: "The letter accompanied with
the story about Dell laptop's keylogger is
fake as well. If you do a search for dept. of homeland security's
logo, it is a blue colour circular logo with an eagle in it. The one
on the fake letter is a five-pointed star, which is commonly used for
Sheriff's office." Link
