I think that this inllustrates the fact that schools are not for everyone, and also speaks volumes about the support her father gave her in raising and educating her and giving her the confidence to achieve her goals.
As an artist* I do choose how my audience experiences my art. I have chosen to make copies, print t-shirts and give them to my friends. And in some rare cases I have given the original away.
I have also chosen not to digitise nor distribute them on the net, because I do not desire to be well known or recognised while I am alive. When I am dead, as part of my will I want my works to be released to the world then freely for all.
Being an avid gamer, I thought I'd list my favourites as suggestions for people.
Peurto Rico : Resource building game : 3-5 players : approx 1 hour per game : an intricate and balanced game where each players actions affect other players.
San Juan : Card game : 2-4 players : approx 30 mins per game : A simplified verion of Peurto Rico done using cards.
Citadels : Card game : 2-9 players : 15-45mins per game : a good game when there is a lot of players
Roborally : board game : 2-8 players : 30+mins per game : programming a bot to destroy other players bots has never been so much fun. The only problem is getting a hold of this game.
Carcassonne : tile game : 2-5 players : 45-60 mins per game : nice and simple with out the expansions.
Guilotine : card game : 2-5 players: 15-30 mins per game : simple and amusing. A good time filler before or after other games
Tantrix : tile game : 2-4 players : 30-45 mins : will twist your brain in knots
I guess the main thing to consider is how many people are likely to be getting to gether to play games and how much thinking they want to do.
I think most of the new games that are coming out of european games companies are very good.
Well, as someone who works in one of the public circus's, pretty much all sites of dubious nature are blocked, plus most that can't be justified as work related.
There have been a couple of people dismissed (read fired) for accessing pr0n at work.
- Talk face to face with my passengers - or read a book, catch up on sleep, or work - not worry about getting intoxicated at a party and having to drive home or find crash space on a sofa (or some girlie's bed *I wish* ) - send the car out to pick up food from a restaurant after phoning through an order. Now that would be very cool, sending the car out to do errands:)
Why not scanned books?

If this guy is so keen on preserving culture, why not scanned books as well?
But is it really worth it? Isn't it all just footprints in the sand?
Has anybody thought to ask wether this whole structure/process for making and releasing games is out of date? With the interest of having advertising in games, maybe companies will sponsor a game to include their advertising and the have the game released for free?
If we provide more food and medicine through technological advances, the global population will just grow to absorb the increase in resources, without actually increasing quality of life. Sort of reminds me of my pay from my job, the more I earn because of getting a promotion, the more my expenditure increases to match it.:)
An even better thing is this thing called REAL-EYE-TV, with stereo vision, changable POV, scratch'n'sniff and full sensory emersion.
But on a slightly more serious note, what I'd use something like that for is wargaming or rts. Have it set up like a table, it could display the entire map, wireless controls, put an array of speakers beneath it for localised sound effects. Drool.
Having separated from my wife, I find that I have been having some trouble sleeping. Partly its to do with having moved into a unit, but the thing I miss most is the presence of her in the bed, just knowing that she was there.
Also I don't sleep nearly as deeply as I did pre-separation, as I wake up a lot earlier than I used to, been seeing a lot of sunrises, so I get to work earlier now.
Since when did patriotism require the telling of the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth?
As far as I'm aware, in the dictionary patriotism means something like:
Love of country; devotion to the welfare of one's country; the virtues and actions of a patriot; the passion which inspires one to serve one's country.
In my opinion, a partriot is just as bad as a zealot, they may have different adgendas but both will do what ever can to further them.

The only evil bits that I know of are sticky bits, but those aren't that evil once you get to know them and understand how they work :)

# All your files are belong to me :)
But let`s be honest. 99% of modded Xbox and PS1/2 serve a lone purpose : playing games without paying for them.
I'm not sure that its 99%, 'cause I know people use them as a digital media centre and have their music & video collection on them as well.

... of a form of interacting with members of the opposite sex over the internet.
:P
The pr0n industry is gonna love that.
They'll call it the Tele-G-Stick
And now I'm suposed to enjoy eating vegemite? Note: Pronouncing yosemite like vegemite will cause amusements :)

... it were available now. Because then I could:
:)
- Talk face to face with my passengers
- or read a book, catch up on sleep, or work
- not worry about getting intoxicated at a party and having to drive home or find crash space on a sofa (or some girlie's bed *I wish* )

i'd be calling the script to start that h0t butt3rd
Hard Pore Corn :P
:)
Its so hot, it keeps on popping up
If so, I can just see a whole pile of images of chip designs circulating on the p2p networks.
:)
But hopefully there would be some designs that were open source.
Even better would be the minaturisation of the pc down to the size of a matchbox, now that would be a chip of the ol' block

I can see Tux in stockings, showing tail saying - "ISO hot 4 U 2 rip me a nu 1, & then put ur burnt disc 0n my spindle" :)

Sort of reminds me of my pay from my job, the more I earn because of getting a promotion, the more my expenditure increases to match it.
Then there is the bottom line most males are interested in, the VPL (visible panty line), which is much more noticible in the warmer weather :)
.. a level playing field :)
So if my pc is currently level 5 and in a years time its only rated at level 2, does this mean its been level drained?
The whole idea sounds bad, its like moving goal posts.
