Pies away anyway
08/01/2004 06:39 AMWell, as you've probably already heard, I did get pied after all at
OSCON. Since the stories have been a bit muddled, I figured I'd stir
the waters a bit myself. Originally the plan was for Guido to toss a
pie at me (from 10 paces, at which range pies are... inaccurate) since
I didn't meet the terms of the bet. I'd baked a pair of Key Lime pies
for the event--I realize they're nowhere near traditional, but I
figure if I'm going to be pasted with one, it's darned well going to
be tasty. The room I was in...

Ex-Verizon Wireless Employee Stole
Minutes... Many, Many Minutes
08/13/2004 05:45 AMAn ex-Verizon Wireless employee has been charged with
ste
aling and reselling $20 million worth of prepaid cellular minutes.
Since the minutes were activated via the numbers on some cards, he
just copied down all the numbers. Interestingly, while the report
says he stole $20 million
worth of minutes, there's no
indication how much he actually sold them for (or how many were
actually used). Also, he continued to have access to the computer
which stored the numbers after he left Verizon, which sounds like a
major security screwup on Verizon Wireless' part.

The Cherry-Tomato Challenge
The Cherry-Tomato Challenge
12/17/2004 06:37 PMI have recently adjusted the
ongoing software
so that each and every image has descriptive text in both its
alt and
title attributes. This is
good accessibility practice
and should also make it possible for search engines to find my
pictures. But they can’t. The image
here, which is
in a file whose name, unhelpfully, is
IMGP0990.png, is
correctly labeled in both
title and
alt
attributes as “Sunlit cherry tomatoes on white-painted wood.” I
just now visited John Battelle’s
helpful list of search
engines and lots of them offered “image search” capabilities,
but not one turned that picture up when I searched for “sunlit
cherry tomatoes”. (Lots of them turn the page up when you do an
ordinary text search.) How hard can it be? I hereby promise that when
I find a credible general-purpose Web Image Search tool that leads me
to that picture via “sunlit cherry tomatoes”, I will publish a
rave review here and do my best to spread the word.

Don't talk to strangers, remember what
happened to Sarah Cherry....
08/06/2004 01:33 PM
On July 6th, 1988 Dennis Dechaine of Bowdinham, Maine came home
from work (transporting frozen chickens from a slaughterhouse) and
planned to work on constructing a greenhouse. However, that project
hit a glitch and sometime that afternoon he decided instead to take
some amphetamines and go exploring in the woods near his home. When
he emerged from the woods, lost and looking for his truck, about 8:30
pm that night he was questioned by the police who were looking for a
missing 12 year old girl named Sarah Cherry. Two days later, Sarah's
body was found and Dennis Dechainewas charged with the girl's murder.
He was convicted in March of 1989 to life in prison without parole and
an entire generation of Maine girls were told to 'remember Sarah
Cherry' as a caution to not talk to strangers.
The question before
us now, is, of course,
did
he do it?

Eats, Shoots & Leaves: The Fresh Air
interview
05/03/2004 04:48 PM
The wonderful Lynne Truss, author of
"Eats, Shoots & Leaves",
appears today on NPR's Fresh Air. It's just not to be
missed!
Her book Eats, Shoots, and Leaves[sic], a best seller in the UK, is a
narrative history of punctuation. Truss claims that with the advent of
e-mail and text messaging, proper punctuation is an endangered
species. Truss is also the author of three novels and numerous radio
comedy dramas. She has been a television critic and sports columnist
for The Times (London). She also won Columnist of the Year award for
her work for Women's Journal. She now reviews books for the Sunday
Times of London.
