10/29/2003 02:21 AMHeavy metal rock band Iron Maiden used Final Cut Pro to assemble and
create the gold master for its DVD "Iron Maiden: Vision of the Beast."
Macworld UK notes that EMI, the band's label, suggested that using
Macs for the preproduction of the DVD might lead to manufacturing
issues, but "it all worked out fine, and now we've sold over 400,000
copies of the DVD," says Johnny B, the bands technical advisor. The
band is also using Macintosh computers for its...

ience-fair-projects.com/Today your teacher announced
that your school is going to have a science fair and students are
responsible for exhibiting their projects. What do you feel?
Enthusiastic? Despondent? Dreadful? Fearful? Excited?" This statement
opens the Super Science Fair Projects site. Actually, whether student
or parent, science fair projects, while great ways to get students
actively involved in learning the scientific method and problem
solving, can be tough assignments. This site may help you with one of
the hardest parts: coming up with an idea. The site does a great job
of walking the visitor through the steps needed to plan and implement
a project, from Choosing a Topic, the Scientific Method, and writing
the Project Report. There are even tips on displaying your project,
rehearsing, winning over judges, and what to expect the day of the
fair. This is definitely a great tool to tap into when planning a
science fair project.[From The NSDL Scout Report for Math,

was just on G4's Attack of the Show, and thanks to my hacked TiVo,
it's available as a 85Mb
MPEG2 torrent.
Jason did great for live TV, which is just about the most stressful
thing in the world. He seemed relaxed, though the host seemed a little
manic. I assume a producer was screaming in the host's ear to keep
Jason moving, which caused the host to cut Jason off whenever he
started sounding reflective. My favorite parts were the host violating
the Adsense terms of service by goading people into clicking his ad
links and the graphic "Blogging for Bling" in the background (because
clearly, Jason's only in it for the benjamins).

Ernie's post and read up on the four<

do not have a right to "fair use" of the digital files we purchase.
Not surprising given the way the entertainment industry has framed the
debate and paid for legislation over the last decade, but discouraging
nonetheless.
If legislators were forced to vote today for the "right of first
sale" of digital files, which is the exemption that has traditionally
allowed libraries to circulate physical materials, I wonder how many
of them would blindly sign it away without a second thought to
libraries. If public libraries didn't already exist, would we be able
to start them in this day and age? My guess is no.

"Fair use" is a doctrine of copyright law (with counterparts in patent

copying of copyrighted works. Shocking! Squatters' rights! Can a
teenager take my car for a joy ride and when he's caught plead "fair

Fair and Balanced?

Bill Gates recently got together with Steve Mills from IBM and
demonstrated some web services interoperability between our two
companies' products. It has taken awhile to get to this point,
from the initial hype to the point where some of these key scenarios
work without smoke and mirrors; so it is nice to see a "status report"
like this.
The first response I saw came in the form of this shrill attack
piece run on CNET. The author seems stuck in the last
century, when people still bought the big lie about "write once run
anywhere". He fails to explain how "runs only on Java" is
significantly different from "runs only on Windows", and completely
misses the point that most enterprises have to support both
types of systems (and many more) and therefore place a high priority
on interop.
The attack piece brought back fond memories of the days when Bob
Metcalfe and Jai Singh (now managing editor at CNET) were together at
the helm of Infoworld. Then I saw another analysis in
CNET, covering the same interop event, but surprisingly balanced,
at least in comparison to the first piece. Finally, I found yet another
analysis on CNET, again covering the same event; and this one is
positively glowingly accurate!
What to make of it? A single presentation by Bill Gates
inspires three different pieces in CNET which cover the whole spectrum
of opinion. Can't complain about that.

Internet “detectives” are busy at work trying to locate
and bring to justice persons guilty of using the Internet for illegal
purposes. They are hunting offenders for illegal prescription drug
sales, illegal trade of copywritten material and
“phishers” who fraudulently send email to users posing as
a trusted online service such as a bank, seeking personal information
which is later used for identity theft.

« Lumimarja, a.k.a. sno
wberry , that grows rather well around Finland. When the guys at
work told me it was the 'famous Finnish popcorn berry' I was willing
to believe it since it does look like popcorn on a stick, but when
they asked if I had seen the yellow variety known as the 'buttered
Finnish popcorn berry' I knew I was being toyed with. :) »
While I was walking to the bus stop this morning, I thought I saw
'vuokraamo' in the window of a gunshop that usually has a few rather
serious-looking samples on display. I thought, wow, there's something
you never see - Gun Rentals. Can you imagine the clientele? The
promotions? "Rent 5, get the 6th for free!" Ah, well, I misread the
sign.
It's amazing how work kills your freetime. :) Sifting through the
Tunisia pictures, getting them online and annotated has taken a bit
longer than I had planned this week, but everything should be together
by tomorrow as once the puppy comes I'll have even less time for the
next few weeks while we get him all settled in.
There's a tyynysota on
Monday at noon, in the railway station square, where the world's
record for largest pillow fight will be attempted. The event will last
about an hour and the duration of the pillow fight itself will be
approximately 15 minutes. Bring your own pillow and inner child. I'm
disappointed that I'll be too busy with the puppy to help Finland
achieve greatness in tactical pillow warfare.

Johnny Ryan interview
02/01/2005 08:37 PM
Mark Frauenfelder:
I've
written about Johnny Ryan's excellent comics before. His work is
juvenille, hostile, violent, and funny. I don't really know why I like
it. I hate South Park, which is also juvenille, hostile, and
violent. But I don't think South Park is funny. Here's an
interview with Ryan on G4techTV.
Do you ever worry about how people are construing your work –
that they may think you’re a homophobe, or a racist, or
anti-religion?
These are sort of elements that are part of us in some ways.
Everybody has that fear of the other or whatever. But it sort of goes
back into my whole sense of humor: making fun of people is funny. I
don’t have any sort of agenda against minorities, or gays, or
religion. I think my comic is self-deprecating in the same way that it
is insulting to everyone. I try to insult everybody, that’s just
my sense of humor. As far as people thinking I’m those
things… I don’t know, I guess it doesn’t really have
too much effect on me since I’m still doing it. It’s all
for the sake of making fun of people and humor – it’s not
some sort of political soapbox I’m standing on.
