The End of an Era, The Stinehour Press is Closing!

Sun, 20 Apr 2008 06:41:21 PDT
I find this post very disturbing to write and a sad reflection on our current economic situation here in the US, as well as an unfortunate look at the trend in book publishing to find the cheapest and “good enough” printing press for the production of Fine Art Books. Where are most “fine art” books printed now?…China! That is not to say that

Canadian socialist IRONY DU JOUR: CBC calls Zimbabwe’s media “state-run”

Thu, 17 Apr 2008 12:35:21 PDT
Canadian socialist IRONY DU JOUR: CBC calls Zimbabwe’s media “state-run” This morning, the state-run, state-owned CBC Newsworld state-media employed news anchor, Suhana Meharchand, referred to Zimbabwe’s “state-run news media” and how they are accusing the political opposition of treason. Canada’s state-owned, state-run CBC never refers to itself that way! Now. Countdown to liberals and sundry leftist and downright Marxist CBC apologists emailing me those seething reprimands insisting

Ads on Contraception: How Far is TOO Far?

Thu, 24 Apr 2008 05:27:44 PDT
Ok, so maybe the people who run the ad campaigns for Durex Condoms should keep their mouths shut for once. It’s great that the makers of condoms want to advertise and promote safe sex practices….I think….but how far is too far? If there’s a fine line between promoting safe sex and being crude, then they’re walking a mighty thin line! I’m not so sure that a giant billboard with a woman’s mouth taped on either side with a package of XXL condoms near her face is helping people everywhere realize

Future of Web Design London 08

Thu, 24 Apr 2008 03:30:22 PDT
This time last week I was at the ‘Future of Web Design’ conference (FOWD), listening to some of the most interesting speakers in the field. I found the first lecture ‘Inspiration and Design Trends’ by Patrick Mc Neil most interesting, and ‘Design sign off in 12 steps’ by Larissa Meek the most practical. ‘Inspiration and Design trends’ by Patrick Mc Neil This man predicted the future! Apparently, the up and coming design trends are: Brown earthy colours – as a background colour this colour

The Plumbiest Plumber In All The Land!

Thu, 24 Apr 2008 05:25:53 PDT
This morning I am home so that our water heater can be replaced. As a side benefit we had him take a look at our garbage disposal which stopped working a couple months ago. After about five minutes of fiddling he pulled out one of CootieBoy’s metal spoons - it was completely mangled and nasty. And voila - the disposal works again. I LOVE our plumber. And now he and three of his guys are in the garage replacing the water heater. And can I tell you? The prices he quoted to replace it were AWESOM

The end for patent trolls?

Sun, 20 Apr 2008 10:01:13 PDT
IT'S good news for small-time inventors but a blow for some of the giants of technology. A bill going through the US Senate that would have slashed the damages inventors receive when patents are infringed has been kicked into the long grass.

BOOM BLOX could head to other platforms

Wed, 23 Apr 2008 11:48:12 PDT
“Once it’s over (Wii release) the sky’s the limit. There’s definitely the possibility of going to other consoles.” - Amir Rahimi, senior producer on Boom Blox BOOM BLOX is one of the few titles on the Wii that I feel would lose a lot if it were played with a traditional controller. I guess if the game doesn’t do well on the Wii, EA has to try and make money elsewhere. Please…Wii owners…don’t let this happen. Trust me, this game is DEFINITELY worth your hard-earned cash. Link

No Age at the Central Library Mark Taper Auditorium, April 20, 2008

Wed, 23 Apr 2008 11:52:28 PDT
Never one to shy away from unconventional venues–witness last year’s performance at bacterial hotspot the LA River–No Age and roughly 250 music fans filled the inner sanctum of Downtown’s Central Library this past Sunday. It was all ages but everyone who got up early and waited in line was still carded. (Library cards that is… ha ha, yeah not funny, I know.) Anyway, fellow LA rockers Mika Miko started off the event with an array of inflatable accoutrements to

Oil up! Freak out! Dow up? Shut up!

Fri, 18 Apr 2008 12:50:34 PDT
Oil up! Freak out! Dow up? Shut up! The state-run media in Canada (and the citizen-owned media who do their best to compete with them) all lament, daily (with intra-day lament updates, all day long), the price of a barrel of oil, and the resulting price of gas. (Of course they don’t have the foggiest clue what they’re talking about, but they pretend they do.) Even as I was writing this, the state-owned CBC did a story about the latest rise in gas prices. Apparently it’s getting h
