Through an Iraqi's Eyes







Through an Iraqi's Eyes

Through an Iraqi's Eyes 12/15/2003 08:11 AM

At 11:16 AM GMT, my cousin called me and told me Saddam Hussein had been captured. I rushed inside, started up my laptop and checked CNN. While the page was loading I plugged the satellite cable into my USB DVB tuner and started ProgDVB.

Littl e Red Riding Hood's wayward past revealed: "Once upon a time, (the story) was a seduction tale. An engraving accompanying the first published version of the story, in Paris in 1697, shows a girl in her déshabille, lying in bed beneath a wolf. According to the plot, she has just stripped out of her clothes, and a moment later the tale will end with her death in the beast’s jaws — no salvation, no redemption. Any reader of the day would have immediately understood the message: In the French slang, when a girl lost her virginity it was said that 'elle avoit vû le loup' — she’d seen the wolf."

Pour Some Sugar On Me, as reinvisioned by Townsend, a boy band. Some would say it's the worst thing they'd ever seen, but I'd hazard a guess that it may actually be the worst thing ever filmed. The song is enhanced with a rap section, and the video is enhanced with the addition of the jackass from Smashmouth, for some bizarre reason. NSFNSAVI (not safe for the non sight & vision impaired)

Is that fog or are my eyes just misty? 08/08/2004 08:36 AM
A couple of nights the city of Oulu was covered in a foggy blanket. Me and Outi went out with our cameras, and grabbed some pictures; my shots are now available at my gallery. I also wanted to test my new Canon Ixus 500. Expect a sort-of-a-review when I get back home.

I know, they are crappy shots (photography is not one of my skills), and normally I wouldn't burden you with them, but I think those pictures tell well my current mood.

You see, tonight is the night we have to say goodbye. I'll be off soon to Iceland for two weeks of pony trekking (and with my luck, Helsinki is now bathing in heat, and Reykjavik isn't), and after that I have the busiest week I could imagine at work. And then two weddings might mix our schedule so that we might not be able to see each other for a month. That's nearly the amount of time we've known each other so far - it's an eternity.

Purina Fire 1962

A photo taken by my paternal grandfather of the fire at the Purina headquarters in February 1962. It was so cold that the water was frozen by the time it hit the building and turned it into an ice palace. I put a few more of them into a small gallery of grandpa's photos.

My brother-in-law has started scanning in pictures given to him by my 95 year old grandmother which were taken over the course of my grandfather's life. It's so strange to see these images taken by a man who was always remote and stoic. He was a brilliant mechanical engineer and mathematician who introduced me to cryptography when I was 7 via the cryptoquip in the newspaper. He patiently explained letter frequency and how to make a crib. Every time I pick up a draw-string bag from a store, I think of him since he designed the machine to make them but, being an 'Organization Man' straight out of Whyte's book, he shared none of the profits that the company reaped from his design. Grandpa was also the guy who, on Christmas, would take a pocketknife and slowly, carefully unwrap the paper from each gift and fold it.

While I respected his intelligence, I never really liked him very much as he made it impossible to warm up to him. I have an exceedingly vivid memory of him talking to me on my 10th birthday about 'niggers' and my immediate reaction of thinking much less of him for it. My mother always remembers him taking back a box kite he had made for me only to give it to my cousin. I didn't think much of it at the time since Robin was only 1 week younger than me, but he had been born retarded due to a negligent doctor with a pair of foreceps and I thought maybe he needed the kite more than I did in the guileless nive way that children tend to see such things. Later in life I would come to understand that he and my grandmother had a long history of playing favourites - from my father's brother, to my oldest sister, to Robin.

I spent several summers over at their house and can't really recall that I learned anything about them as people aside from what was obvious and already known; they loved bridge with friends, he was a type II diabetic and they were active Masons. They used to take me to various Masonic functions and even then I was cynical enough to think of it as a creepy cult-like organisation. They were inscrutable in many ways. It's is particularly odd to see these photographs that he took not only because I didn't know that he liked photography, but that he took more than just the usual family snapshots and appears to have been reasonably good at it. My father bought an Olympus OM-10 at one point and I don't know that he took many photos with it since work was his life. I imagine that had he lived to enjoy some of his retirement that he would have taken a lot more pictures. I started getting interested in photography about 10 or 12 years ago and I wonder now if it might be hereditary. :)

George, my grandfather, died from a massive heart attack at the ripe age of 84 while roofing his house, which wasn't a bad way to go all things considered. I cursed him at the time since it was right before my Calculus 2 and Differential Equations exams and he was helping my understanding of them tremendously. Looking at the few pictures my brother-in-law sent to me, it makes me wonder if he might have had some redeeming qualities as a human being that I didn't or couldn't see when I was much younger.


Keep Your Eyes on MetroFi


Keep Your Eyes on MetroFi 12/29/2003 02:57 PM
MetroFi doesn't appear to have officially introduced itself to the world: Its Web site is pretty stripped down and only says that the company plans to build a nationwide residential broadband network using Wi-Fi. Most of its leaders come from Covad, though its CTO was the CTO for Metricom. I'll be interested to see what exactly these guys are planning as it seems that WiMAX might be a better technology for such a network....

I spent some time this week at a meeting of Sun’s Distinguished Engineers; to become a DE you have to go through a lengthy process including peer review. I’m not a DE, I was there to give a speech on Communication, my first outing on that subject. It’s an impressive group; there were lots of technical conversations (on IPv6, process modeling, mobile objects) where I was struggling to understand the basics let alone the details. Anyhow, I’ve already written here that I think people’s faces reflect the language they speak. Along similar lines, as I looked at all these very senior engineers’ faces, I was struck by a particular look in their eyes. I don’t seem to have a good vocabulary to describe it, but “stillness” and “coolness” come to mind. It wasn’t subtle. They are the eyes, I think, of people who listen intensely.

"The most intriguing story in Washington these days is a subterranean conflict that reporters cannot cover because some of them are involved. A potent guerrilla insurgency has formed in and around the Bush presidency - a revolt of old pros in government who strike from the shadows with devastating effect. They tell the truth. They explode big lies. They provide documentary evidence..." - William Greider, on what could prove to be one of the defining power struggles of our time. Through a lens darkly, yes. But deniable ? - not plausibly. As gossip, growing louder now, the shadow-war advances. Unstoppably? No.
