Simpsons fan creates tomacco

Simpsons fan creates tomacco 11/04/2003 02:00 AM
A Simpsons fan has created tomacco by cross-breeding tomatoes and tobacco:

"What we found was nicotine in the leaves". said scientist Ray Grimsbo. The plant grew off the tobacco roots and sucked up the nicotine, just like Tomacco on The Simpsons. The lab hasn't tested if the actual tomato has nicotine in it yet, but they say it probably does. "Generally in the fruit there is more material concentrated because that's what everything's going through to produce the fruit for the next generation. I would expect there would be more." And that would make the real life tomacco plant very poisonous. Rob Baur says he grew the tomacco plant just for fun, just to see if it would really work.

During the Simpsons panel at San Diego's Comic Con International, executive producer and longtime Simpsons contributor Al Jean announced the news that many fans have been waiting for: "There will be a movie," putting enough "English" on the word "will" to leave no doubt among the faithful that they will be able to see the yellow-hued denizens of Springfield on the big screen. Jean did not provide a release date, saying only that the show's producers were taking the time to get it right.

Judge Knocks EULAs Back A Bit

Judge Knocks EULAs Back A Bit 04/05/2005 07:23 PM
Software "end user license agreements" (EULAs) have received plenty of attention over the years for a variety of problems associated with them. First off, most EULAs are non-negotiable, which has some wondering how valid they can be as a contract. Next EULAs are often used to hide that you've agreed to install spyware or to force you to give the software creator extrao rdinary rights over your computer. Typically, these EULAs tend to be clear as mud. However, what is clear is that almos t no one reads them, despite the fact they basically tell you you don't own the software you thought you purchased. Copyfight has noticed that a recent legal ruling may push back on the power of the EULA, as the judge has made it clear that, despite claims to the contrary in the EULA, buyers of software have certain rights as owners. Many EULAs carefully try to make it clear that the buyer isn't the owner, but just the licensee of the software -- but the judge ruled that certain ownership rights should still apply. It's a small step, but it does give software buyers some of the rights they deserve.

Adobe branches out with stock
photography service 04/05/2005 04:40 PM
What Apple did for music with iTunes, Adobe is doing for digital imaging with its new one-stop shopping service for stock photography. Adobe announced yesterday that the new service, called Adobe Stock Photos, will be available with Creative Suite 2 Premium and Standard Editions, as well as Adobe's Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator and GoLive applications. It provides a single destination point to access hundreds of thousands of images without having to exit the Adobe application. To build the service, Adobe has collaborated with some of the world's leading stock photography providers, including Photodisc by Getty Images; Digital Vision; imageshop royalty free by zefaimages; and amana. It will also feature Comstock Images by Jupitermedia, which acquired Dynamic Graphics in February. "Adobe Stock Photos is an innovative offering for creative professionals and we're pleased to be one of the stock photo agencies to launch with this service," stated Alan M. Meckler, Chairman and CEO of Jupitermedia Corporation. The service will be accessed through Adobe Bridge, a new hub for productivity, imagery and creativity, that provides multi-view file browsing and smooth cross-product integration within Adobe Creative Suite 2 and Adobe CS2 software applications. In addition to offering the ability to purchase royalty free images via Adobe Stock Photos, users will be able to access partner rights managed libraries, and connect with individual assignment photographers via the Adobe Photographers Directory - which was announced last week. Adobe says it has built in extensive search capabilities, with search results from all royalty-free libraries presented in one place, saving designers from having to log into each provider's website separately and view search results across different libraries. An advanced dialog box allows users to search results by media type, orientation and provider. Eventually the service will be available in 27 countries, and the image pricing will be competitive with the prices that are available directly from the participating stock photography library providers, Adobe says.

Nelson Minar rages against the dying of design, in his summary of a discussion with Cory Doctorow around using smart quotes and other typographic niceties in weblogs.

I want to use fancy Unicode characters like U+201C and U+201D ("smart quotes") in my blog. Cory hates that idea because non-ASCII characters behave badly when you paste them into your email or text editor and that they don't work well in RSS.

The underlying problem is an impedence mismatch between new Unicode oriented tech like the Web and XML and old ASCII oriented tech like email and text editors. Browsers and RSS readers should mediate between the two but software often gets it wrong.

This discussion continues a conversation on the SmartyPants plug-in I hacked together for Blosxom.

While compromising design for the sake of compensation for badly integrated technologies and encodings is not on in my book, some allowance must be made for the simple copy-n-paste. To that end, I've added a plainlink (txt) to my template alongside the permalink. This link leads to an utterly plain text (non-smarty) version of the story at hand.

Talk of Steve Jobs has been rampant over the past week in the technology world. Here are a few of the most interesting quotes about Steve Jobs, Apple and Apple products recently found around the web. "The world would soon learn that Jobs wasn’t just joining the revolution; he was about to reshape it." - Jeffrey S. Young and William L. Simon, The Times Online "iCon fails as biography. Maybe that's the real reason that Jobs, perfectionist that he is, won't let it be sold in his company's stores. It's not good enough." - Hiawatha Bray, The Boston Globe "If you haven't got a CPU at home worth writing about, then Steve Jobs has a real gem for you - and it's about the size of a shoe." - Brian Dukes, Up & Coming Weekly "Behind the euphoria generated by the iPod, the skills of its industrial designers and charisma of chief executive Steve Jobs, Apple is quietly burrowing into the enterprise, buoyed by the Unix base of its still relatively new operating system." - Garry Barker, Sydney Morning Herald "By obeying the terms of KHTML's open source license, Apple is upholding every ideal it was asked to uphold. If the KHTML team now feels there are still more ideals they'd like upheld, they should adjust their licensing terms." Neil  McAllister, Infoworld "More iPods are bargain-priced these days and could be cutting into sales of Apple's premium products. There is also no evidence that young iPod users will be any more interested in a Macintosh computer than anyone else is." - Andrew Leckey, Tribune Media Services columnist "I started playing with it, and I don't know, you get kind of hooked on Macs. They have an appeal that never leaves." - Jeremy Seftor, general manager of Capitol Mac, an Apple Computer Inc. reseller and service provider on West Main Street in Richmond
