On the rhetoric of adverts...
On the rhetoric of adverts...
02/10/2004 02:46 AMBrief one this: So I'm watching Contact on television and there's
an advert for Pantene shampoo.
And the voice comes on - the deep pounding "buy me" voice of the
professional voice-over artist - and he says ,"Pantene makes your hair
not just once - but twice as shiny!" Can you imagine that? Can
you imagine how awesome that must be? I mean something that makes your
hair once as shiny is clearly pretty good (given how important
the advert made it sound), but this is way way beyond once! This is
like twice! That's like once as shiny two times over!
Can someone explain to me how an advert can present "once as shiny"
as somehow something pretty awesome that only Pantene can beat? I
mean, wouldn't hair naturally be once as shiny? If it wasn't -
that would be a problem, wouldn' t it? I mean if your shampoo made
your hair 90% as shiny, then wouldn't it gradually and eventually
decrease in shininess every time you washed it? Wouldn't it eventually
come to absorb all light? Maybe that does happen in very poor places
where they can't afford proper almost-once-as-shiny-making shampoo.
God how confusing that must be for people at night. It would hurt your
eyes eventually, wouldn't it? And wouldn't it make people's heads
really really hot after a while? Frankly the thought's so scary that
I'm now scrabbling around for a shampoo that guarantees me precisely
100% normal shininess and not a single millionth of a percentage
either way. If it's not precisely once as shiny, I don't think I want
to go near it...

Objective Rhetoric
07/28/2004 02:46 PMAt this point, thirty years after New Journalism and Post-Modernism,
you'd think we wouldn't still need to have this argument, but, here
goes: Objectivity isn't objective. Or, as my friend AKMA puts it, "The
only people you can trust to be objective are the ones who know that
objectivity can’t be reached." If you need proof of this, look no
further than the lead article in today's Boston Globe. I have no
quarrel at all with the article. In fact, I read it with interest this
morning over breakfast. Glen Johnson does a fine job reporting on the
second night...

Libertarian Rhetoric is
Counterproductive
06/22/2004 08:23 PMThere's a problem with typical libertarian rhetoric, and it's
illustrated in this article in New Hampshire's Union Leader. When we
speak like crazed Rand-worshippers, how do we expect people to react?
Of course they're going to call us 'cultists.' From the article: "if
you care at all about New Hampshire, you should do everything in your
power to cause the Free Staters and Towners to abort their mission.
They're nothing but a selfish group of anarchist carpetbaggers whose
sole purpose is to destroy a place and people they don't give two
hoots about." (I'm not a member of the FSP by the way, just taking an
interest.)

Microsoft Security Bulletin MS03-050:
Vulnerability in Microsoft Word and
Microsoft Excel Could Allow Arbitrary
Code to Run (831527)
11/13/2003 12:36 AMA security vulnerability exists in Microsoft Word that could allow
malicious code execution. This vulnerability exists due to to the way
Word checks the length of a data value (Macro names) embedded in a
document. If a specially crafted document were to be opened it could
overflow a data value in Word and allow arbitrary code to be executed.
If successfully exploited, an attacker could then take the same
actions as the user had permissions to carry out, such as adding,
changing or deleting data or files, communicating with a web site or
formatting the hard drive.
