Periodic Table of the Elements Table

Periodic Table of the Elements Table 12/03/2002 11:46 AM

This is probably one of, if not the coolest thing I have seen in a while. Theodore Gray, president of the company that makes Mathematica, is quite a cool dude, and his Periodic Table of the Elements Table is definitely the cat's ass of tables (if you know what i mean). While you are at it, check out his Sodium Party. I found this site from reading Ben Hammersley.com. Neat stuff.

Formatting documents with OpenOffice.org
Writer macros

Formatting documents with OpenOffice.org
Writer macros 09/16/2004 09:13 AM
Around the time OpenOffice.org 1.1 RC was released, I was migrating a small company from Corel WordPerfect to OpenOffice.org. OpenOffice.org by itself does not support reading or writing WordPerfect files, but a tool called wpd2sxw can convert WordPerfect files to OpenOffice.org format (SXW). After conversion with wpd2sxw, which was rather good but had problems with some formatting features, I applied macros to documents based on different templates to make more than 2,000 converted documents look very similar to original WordPerfect files they were generated from. This article presents some macro "building blocks" you can use to modify a document's formatting or to generate well-formatted documents from plain text files.

Easy Come, Easy Go: Antigua Loses To US
Over Gambling

Easy Come, Easy Go: Antigua Loses To US
Over Gambling 04/07/2005 05:39 PM
Antigua has been battling the US for some time over the US's ban on online gambling. For many years, Antigua-based online casinos have run into problems with US laws. Two years ago, they went to the WTO claiming that the US ban on online gambling was a violation of a fair trade agreement the two nations had signed. It took the WTO almost exactly one year to point out that Antig ua was probably right. Of course, that wasn't acceptable for politicians who seem to think gambling is pure evil (except, of course, when it contributes to local tax coffers) -- so, while they planned to ignore the ruling completely (we're the US, we don't follow international rulings unless we agree with them), they did file an appeal, just for fun. It turns out that appeal worked, and the WTO has changed its mind, saying that banning gambling is a "moral issue," and therefore not subject to the fair trade agreement the two nations signed. So, sorry for all you online gambling addicts in the US, but you're back to breaking the law again.

Both drives do a fine job of simplifying backup and providing external storage space. The ABSplus is a focused backup device that's easy to use, right out of the box, for backup and restoration, whereas Maxtor's cheaper and quieter drive is better for people who want extra disk space and more backup flexibility.

TABLE vs CSS

TABLE vs CSS 05/27/2004 10:46 AM

Tables Vs. CSS - A Fight to the Death: So which is better — building page layouts using TABLE tags or using DIVs and CSS? This guy set out to find out. He built the same site both ways, and documented the experience and results.

On Table-based design... I've seen that design in every browser I can, under Linux, Windows and Macintosh platforms, and it looks practically the same. It's rock solid. Score one for the tables.

On CSS-based Design…Building the design in CSS felt much better. The immediacy of the changes and clarity of the code made me feel more in control of the process. [...] There are significant savings in bandwidth, too. [...] Keeping the layout information apart from the content also provides all sorts of benefits.

In the end, he picked CSS, although I was concerned with some of the browser rendering problems he displays. Like TABLEs or not, they are incredibly stable in the face of different browsers and platforms.

I can go either way. I use CSS for major page layout, but I've been known to slap things in table now and again — every situation is different, and you really need to use the method that gives you the results you want at that particular time.

DJ Kreemy Table

DJ Kreemy Table 06/15/2004 01:26 PM
Designer Karim Rashid's DJ Kreemy turntable table is perfect for otherworldly ambient sessions. Rashid: "(The table) is organic like sound, omnidirectional like sound, and that emphasizes the 'volumous' beats that irradiate from the two turntables." All I know is that it would match my 1967 Fender Rhodes "Student Model" piano perfectly. Link (Thanks, DF Tram!)

Aurora LED Table

Aurora LED Table 02/05/2005 10:16 PM

The Orange 22 design studio is promoting their new Aurora cocktail table, a pleasing LED-lit piece of furniture with the look of a giant, glowing Life Saver. By rubbing the touch-pad on the lower lip of the Aurora, you can change the hue, brightness, or "animation" of the 'Pixcell' lights inside the translucent acrylic table. If you're already going to spend the $3,600 price for the table, though, you might as well add in the $300 wireless remote, as well.

Big penis on the table (or not)

Big penis on the table (or not) 08/11/2004 12:08 PM
This vintage medical model of a human penis is up for auction on eBay right now. Manufactured by Carolina Biological Supply Company (still a wonderful company), circa 1950s, the model is 22.5" long and 15" tall. Starting bid at just $275. Link (Thanks, Michael-Anne!)

UPDATE: If you thought that penis head was a bit pointy and odd looking, you were onto something. Dr. Matthew Vaughn says: "Unfortunately, the 'male penis' model is actually a model of the ro ot tip of a modern vascular plant. Now given the Australian slang for a quick romp between the sheets (a root), BoingBoing's posting isn't ALL that far from the mark, but it is, nevertheless, factually incorrect."
