Actually - that begs the question - can you back up the meta data? Does anyone know how?!! As far as I can tell the best you can do is make a slideshow out of them. I am a paying FLICKR user as well and uploading all my photos and cataloging them took weeks. It seemed like the easiest thing to do at the time, as I could not be bothered with buying photo software and posting it on a website...I am sure I will regret this decision sooner than later:(
Someone should make an app that ports all that info out of Flickr:)
and yes, I would agree, my friends and family are totally thwarted by the Yahoo ID thing, I could only get a few of them to sign up.
TMI. Although..your username is UR...ANUS.
PS guys jack off "all the time" so how is that ammunition against YOU?
case in point...
Andy Stitzer: [motioning to David's box of porn] I don't want this stuff, okay? Because I don't do that, that much.
David: What, masturbate?
Andy Stitzer: Yeah.
David: Dude, I've jacked it twice since I've been here. Are you kidding me? Why not?
Andy Stitzer: It's not a hobby of mine.
David: Well, then, that's the only hobby you don't have.
Snake Like Sharks? Virgin Kamodo Dragons? We better find that source of radiation...I'm just saying...
Scientists announced in December in the journal Nature that Flora the Kimodo had fertilized the eggs herself without any male help, in a process culminating in parthenogenesis or "virgin birth"
I would agree with that, but they must be more than just sales skills. They also need:
- business and financial acumen so they know how to structure the business and deals
- tech savvy (or the savvy of whatever product they are working on) so they can talk about it intelligently
- leadership skills so people will follow them into battle.
It's a complicated, stressful job, especially in smaller companies where you have less support. I've seen a few CEO's burn out in my time, maybe the CIOs have see that firsthand and avoid it.
I have a solution for parents - treat your kids the way YOUR Employer treats YOU!
Employers place the monitors outward for a good reason - they want to make sure their employees are working instead of spending hours playing solitaire. So, to mimic this setup simply remove computers from bedrooms and place them in the family room where you can see what they are doing. Have the monitor facing out into the room - just like work! For an added effect build tiny, depressing grey cubicles, it will make them want to get outside and play!
Then, restrict website access. Can you surf for pr0n at work? Well, maybe if you work for Playboy, but most of us can't - why should your kid be able to look at nude chicks when you are not even allowed? Turn on parental controls - and learn how to use them. Of course, the odds are your kids are smarter than you and can turn them off, that's why moving the computer where you can see it is so effective.
Monitor site passwords. That's right - your employer can read your email anytime they please, why should your kids have it any different? Spot check on occasion to make sure they are not planning a columbine style attack or talking to MySpace predators.
Restrict time usage. If you don't get your work done at work you can't play on the computer either. Why? because you are fired! Computers are for work, so only allow them for fun if they do the work first! After homework is complete allow some MySpacing or on-line gaming for 1 hour. After the hour is up restrict entertainment to solo game play (no Internet access) or T.V. You don't have time to monitor them for 3 hours any more than your employer has time to watch you.
When they whine "it's not fair" say..."well, take it up with my boss."
Hooking their little red wagon to the ridiculous and ARBITRARY "30 years of age" rating will kill this piece legislation for sure. It makes me think it's a ploy for attention, and not a serious bill.
I think so, this is probably a "set an example" type of case oh yeah...the old "example" strategy that serves as a cautionary tale for others...widely utilized by highschool gym teachers across America
Perhaps Health Insurance Companies could fund this type of research - they would stand to benefit directly due to the high costs associated with cancer treatment.
Good point. Damn Vegans, I dated one for years, I *should* have known that. I guess what threw me is he liked to put makeup on animals:)

I also thought "what's the point" when I read this, however, I guess it's interesting for people who have never seen a game contract with milestone definitions. Publishers will nail you on every last detail (for example - Disney specifies Beta as code and content complete) This level of detail can also bite them in the ass - especially if they want to add features or make changes after Beta testing demonstrates revisions are needed (meaning additional code and content!) contracts can work to the developers advantage in that case.
ummm...you don't eat them - the proteins (interferon b-1a, miR24) are extracted from the egg whites and used in creating treatments for various types of cancers as well as other diseases such as MS. I imagine it's less expensive than creating those proteins artifically in a lab like *i think* they do for insulin (also a protein)...that's kewl.
sortof off topic - I saw Pirates (the pr0n version of Pirates of the Carribean) in Blockbuster! They edited it to be rated R....that must be one short movie now.
I would suggest spending the money on a new laptop and a trip to Starbucks or some other place with Wireless...
Shut up, just shut up. You had me at "Merlot"
...just don't try and use "Kramer" as your spokesperson...that ship has sailed...

either way
Watch your back :)
I'm not surprised, they really are cool.

Does this shopping mall make my ass look big?
Wow, these maps are really beautiful - They look like a cross between Paul Klee's painting "Composition With Fruit" and Joan Miro's "Frustrated Cat"
Alright, that's a stretch, but they could be confused for modern art if the viewer was not aware of their origin.

hey...I was just kidding around...I actually appreciate the information. thanks.
