Well, it's an old rumor, but many sources (including the
NYT, WSJ,
Wired, and many rumor sites) are reporting that Steve Jobs
will be announcing a switch to Intel at the
WWDC tomorrow. The WSJ
claims Apple will be switching to x86 processors, while others
speculate Intel will simply be manufacturing PPC chips, or only
processors for a tablet PC. If the rumors are true, and it seems like
they are, what of the Intel DRM
recently announced?
Are we destined to have DRM hardwired into our computers no matter
where we turn?
Curiously, the
major rumor
site has remained mum on the matter. Your best bet to follow the
drama will probably be
MacRumors,
who will be providing live updates from Steve-o's keynote tomorrow.

from all over the world going back to the 1770s, founded by Kathleen

amused cats; UN observer cats; guilty bystander cats. All in all, an
extremely important investigation into the perennial question of how
to hold a cat's attention. [

Dancing With Cats
Dancing With Cats
06/09/2004 01:01 AMI just got home from having coffee with a friend at my favorite cafe
in West Hollywood. There's a zany new age bookstore down the street.
Sometimes I pop in for the sole purpose of sneering at book titles
like
Tantric Sex for Dummies and
Is Your Pet Psychic?
But tonight was no ordinary night of snorting and hiding my face in
the Feng Shui soy candle display. A little paperback gem was hiding on
the shelf below that black velvet UFO portrait of The High Eck Master. I
found a very special large-format book called Dancing With Cats (Chronicle
Books, 1999). It's filled with pictures of humans fannying about in
tights, striking "I-Wish-I-Were-Baryshnikov" poses -- together with
cats who doing the same thing. The text is equally rich. Straightfaced
talk of "multicat" interspecies dance ensembles as a tool for
enlightenment, think Busby Berkeley with
hairballs and chakras. What's so awesome about this book: (a) 100%
irony-free, and (b) it HAS to be Photoshoppery. It's, like, straight
out of Worth. As if someone
positions the humans, shoots them, then goes back, someone else hurls
a cat accross the room and photographs that, then everything's
composited in a terpsichorean orgy of catpixels.
There's a website for this book with a teaser thumbnail gallery,
some awesome MPEG movies, and online tips for would-be "catdancers"
(The question to ask is not "Will my cat dance with me?" but rather
"Will I dance with my cat?"). Dig the pre-dance
exercises:
Before we can begin dancing with our cats, we must first make contact
with them. We can't simply put on music and expect that our cats will
dance with us. We have to first align our dynamic vibration systems
with theirs and bring those systems into a kind of confluence before
we can build the energy levels through the dance that are necessary to
attain the higher vibrationary states which enable us to channel the
infinite power of the universe.
You see, human beings and cats are not simply physical bodies confined
within a barrier of skin or fur. We are also made up of dynamic energy
systems which extend out, and interact with, every other energy system
around us.
There's a simple exercise you can try right now as you sit in front
of your computer. It's one of a number of what we call mirroring
exercises that will allow you to bring your body into an
energy-centered relationship with your cat and prepare you to dance
with it... a simple purring technique. Remember that purring is the
way a cat modulates its energy reserves in order to restore its
psychic equilibrium.
So, roll yourself a catnip fattie and smoke
this:

03/17/2005 03:24 AMAfter three weeks of hanging around like an unwelcome in-law, the
filthy grey snow banks are finally melting here in Boston.
With the advent of warmth and sunshine I would have expected
everyonealong Alex's Harvard Yard/Square dog walking route to be
grinning with happiness. Yet people did not seem any happier
than usual. To explain this phenomenon it is necessary to turn
to TIME magazine's January 17, 2005 "The Science of Happiness"
issue. According to TIME, "sunny days [do not make us happy
though] a 1998 study showed that Midwesterners think folks living in
balmy California are happier and that Californians incorrectly believe
this about themselves too."
Friends and family make people happy as does "contributing to the
lives of others" (tough for folks in Vero Beach, FL given that it is
tough to find anyone within a gated community facing a more
important decision than whether to play golf or tennis). When
asked "do you often do any of the following to improve your mood?",
TIME's own poll revealed that 38 percent of women checked off "playing
with pet"; only 18 percent checked "have sex". As the favored
pet among America's ladies is the cat, from this we can conclude
that cats are more satisfying to women than men are.

which
looked like it had been hit by a truck. Even better than fur-bearing
robots, Sharper Image has announced a special
edition Robosapien available in chrome or metallic blue. Both
versions include Mark W. Tilden's signature tattooed on the leg.
