The Photoshop Action Pack Ironclad License
Agreement (PAPILA)

You can use these actions for anything you like, and you can give them to your friends and co-workers (or even your enemies, if your experience of the actions leads you to believe that that’s where the real worth of this software lies). However, if you give them to someone else, you must include the whole package - the installer, documentation, sample workflows - and a kiss on the cheek. You must then stand on one foot and cluck like a chicken. (Man, I can see why people want to be lawyers. Once you’ve got someone under your licensing power, you can make them do anything. But I digress…)

Every person in this country with half a brain should be charging the capital and throwing batteries at these scum.

“…the president would have broad authority to designate various private networks as a “critical infrastructure system or network” and, with no other review, “may declare a cyber-security emergency and order the limitation or shutdown of Internet traffic to and from” the designated the private-sector system or network.”

The following is in response to a discussion we’ve been having at work lately which was sparked by these two posts:

Why CSS should not be used for layout

CSS and the meaning of life

A few thoughts:

I just finished ordering tickets for my brother and myself to go see Richard Dawkins’ lecture “The Purpose of Purpose” at the Northrop Auditorium on March 4th. I would encourage anyone else in the area to attend. Dawkins is a great speaker and it is sure to be a good time.

My brother used to work at the Northrop, I’ve been to a number of shows there, and I’ve never had a bad experience. And I’m sure it’s just a third-party product, but their ticket ordering system is a joke. Well, it would be a joke if it weren’t so painful.
