I have been mulling this over for a few days and am saddened that another company has been destroyed by the Mafia like organizations that went after them in the courts for giving consumers the tools to allow fair use of media that they own.

I have to give the men and women that worked at 321 Studios a Bronze Star for taking a bullet and fighting to the very last. I only wished that they had survived the legal battle. [www.321studios.com]

OCEAN - Open Computation Exchange & Auctioning (or Arbitration) Network

OCEAN - Open Computation Exchange & Auctioning (or Arbitration) Network Project
http://www.cise.ufl.edu /research/ocean/

OCEAN (Open Computation Exchange & Auctioning (or Arbitration) Network) is a major ongoing project at the University of Florida's CISE department to develop a fully functional infrastructure supporting the automated, commercial buying and selling of dynamic distributed computing resources over the internet. The idea is that anyone with spare cycles should be able to deploy an OCEAN server which can run other people's computing tasks for profit, and any developer should be able to easily write a distributed application which any user with a credit card number (or other means of automatic payment) should be able to deploy in distributed fashion using as many suitable OCEAN servers as they can afford to rent for their particular purpose. OCEAN will likely use a distributed, peer-to-peer double-auction mechanism to ensure that jobs are automatically contracted out to the cheapest suitable available bidders, and that OCEAN servers automatically contract themselves out to run the highest-paying available jobs. The OCEAN project had its roots at M.I.T. with a group of MIT and former Stanford students, led by Mike Frank. This has been added to Auction Resources Subject Tracerâ„¢ Information Blog and Grid Resources Subject Tracerâ„¢ Information Blog.

American Ocean

American Ocean 04/09/2004 04:12 PM

Pimp, Day 112, East St. Louis, Illinois.

This month's issue of LFI has a breathtaking collection of photos by Aaron Huey who walked 3349 miles from Encinitas, California to Coney Island, New York with his dog Cosmo and a Leica M6. I've seen quite a few collections of photographs attempting to paint a cohesive portrait of America and I'm prepared to say that if the whole collection are as good as the teaser in LFI, Am erican Ocean blows the rest of them away.

Huey was only 25 when he got sponsored by Kodak and Leica to do this trip. Given that he apprenticed with a National Geographic photographer prior to this project, my more cynical side suspected that he was just a kid with all the right connections and a bit of talent. However, when I started reading the journals he kept while he was on the road it quickly became clear that he's no poseur. Take some time and read them as he has a particular gift for telling the story that he went in search of for 154 days. Anyone who can walk through East St. Louis at any hour of the day isn't just doing this to make a name for himself.

East St. Louis is where you go after 3am to get booze at the drive-thru liquor store where the cashier takes your money with one hand while holding a gun at you with the other hand. The city is so poor and bankrupt that they didn't have garbage collection for at least 5 years. Dead bodies from St. Louis regularly turn up under the highway overpasses. The danger is the same for people of all colours, too. East St. Louis is a place to be avoided in a car and definitely not walked through. I particularly enjoy his astute observation of how close abject poverty and the suburban middle-class are to each other and the jarring reality it creates for those who notice. If Huey could not only walk through unscathed, but make friends and photograph some of them then he is a truly gifted storyteller with his camera and pen.

Day 111 NW St. Louis to South St.Louis

The rest of the day is a series of wrong turns. I walk through a wasteland. 2 hours of abandoned buildings. Empty streets. Where are all the people. Pockets of very rich. Pockets of very poor. Large blocks of deserted buildings. Strange city. Where are the people? Walk under the famous arch. It had to be done, it is the gateway to the East. So an official beginning for the final push. A looooong final push. Walk along the river. It is flooding from a week of rain. Down by the rail yards I walk 2 miles of world class grafitti, 20 feet high and 2 miles long. The most impressive thing I have seen in St.Louis. Worth staying the extra day for this alone. It is a better gallery than any museum here.

I've driven coast-to-coast a dozen or so times and I've driven the length of route 66. You can't get the idea of how vast the US is from an airplane. America isn't the place that is portrayed in the movies no matter how seductive the fantasy. America is a gigantic place in great need of a storyteller like Huey. Apparently no publisher has picked up his book which I find hard to believe since it's just amazing work. I really want to see this collection along with the stories in a finished, bound book.

Project Ocean: Stanford University And Google: Interesting.

...Google has embarked on an ambitious secret effort known as Project Ocean, according to a person involved with the operation. With the cooperation of Stanford University, the company now plans to digitize the entire collection of the vast Stanford Library published before 1923, which is no longer limited by copyright restrictions. The project could add millions of digitized books that would be available exclusively via Google.

Personally, I don't think the government should be involved in marriage in any way. I believe that marriage is between two people who love each other who wish to make a commitment to stay together through good times and bad. I suppose that it can also be between those people and whatever god they choose to worship, but even then . . . wouldn't it be stupid for the government to tell couples which god can bless their marriage? And who cares what sex they are?

An interesting thing has happened since San Francisco started granting marriage licenses to same-sex couples: my marriage is just fine!

That's right. Even though there are thousands of gay and lesbian couples affirming their love for each other, my marriage -- my affirmation of love and commitment to Anne -- isn't threatened at all. As a matter of fact, the only people who can really "threaten" my marriage are . . . well . . . the two of us.

And this brings me to the first thing that's so profoundly upsetting about this entire issue: it's not about marriage, it's not about love, it's not about family, it's not about commitment. It's about hating homosexuals. It's about treating homosexuals as if they are second-class citizens. It's about dividing this country into those who support discrimination, and those who don't. It's about Karl Rove updating The Southern Strategy.
