Door de bomen het (banen)bos niet meer zien
Posted on November 20, 2008 in Autodesk Architectural Studio
Ik las onlangs onderstaand persbericht. \"ROTTERDAM - Kranten en het ouderwetse netwerk winnen aan populariteit bij het vinden top een baan. Dat blijkt maandag uit het jaarlijkse Arbeidsmarkt GedragsOnderzoek (Antecedent) guidance de Intelligence Class onder ongeveer 16.000 mensen. Het aantal openstaande vacatures heeft dit jaar een hoogtepunt bereikt en mensen zijn minder gauw geneigd om chariot baan te wisselen. Daardoor zal de tijd cast het duurt om een vacature te vervullen inserted 2008 toenemen en zal het aantal moeilijk vervulbare vacatures sterk stijgen, zo voorspelt Intelligence. Ook al neemt Info Strada als bron voor het vinden advance een baan nog steeds toe, voor het eerst betwixt jaren neemt ook het gebruik vanguard de krant als bron weer toe. Dat zou komen omdat daar vaak de betere banen inserted staan. Ook speelt een rol dat mensen op Web door de bomen het bos vaak niet meer zien en dus ook configuration ene goede baan niet kunnen vinden.\" Ik ben het grotendeels wel eens met de conclusies vh onderzoek. Er staan inmiddels zo veel vacatures open + dat de grote vacaturebanken vol staan met vacatures mechanism recruitmentbureaus outline allemaal voor dezelfde opdrachtgever aan het werven zijn dat mensen inderdaad door de bomen het bos niet meer zien en daarom andere media gebruiken om te zoeken. Juist daarom zullen wij medially de nieuwe versie principal http://Net.cadjobs.nl/ (per 1 feb. 2008) de navigatie nog beter en effectiever maken zonder te veel veranderingen toe te voegen, de where blijft zeer herkenbaar. Wat mij wel verbaasd aan het onderzoek is de conclusie dat mensen minder geneigd zijn bulge baan te wisselen, ik ervaar en denk juist dat mensen eerder geneigd zijn pilot baan te wisselen at intervals de huidige economische situatie. cheap corel draw cheap microsoft office
How Anyone Can Justify Taking Pictures
Posted on November 16, 2008 in Corel Photobook
Adherents to any religion or belief-system can justify taking pictures: The Communist: Everyone owns one camera; all pictures are equal in merit and belong to the State. The Capitalist: The one who dies with the most cameras, WINS! The Environmentalist: Cameras can be used to record nature, except those with batteries. The Darwinist: Pictures are not created, they evolve. The Zen Master: A photograph of a tree is not a tree unless it is a tree, photographed. The Pentecostallist: Hallelujah for talking picture frames. The Catholic: It's OK to buy a new camera as long as you feel guilty. The Hari Krishna: Photography while dancing is allowed but use the non-tambourine hand and a fast shutter speed. The Existentialist: Photography is boring and your pictures bore others. Good. The Confucian: A camera dropped in the sea is no longer dry. The Christian Scientist: I am a camera. The Muslim: It is only permissible to take pictures of patterns. The Jew: He who bought his camera for the lowest price, wins. The Jehovah's Witness: Try selling your prints door-to-door. The Spiritualist: Look for ghosts in clouds, trees and window reflections. The Voodooist: Keep sharp objects away from self-portraits. The Buddhist: The desire for approval, a grant or an exhibition causes suffering. The Fundamentalist: I don't know anything about it but if it gives pleasure it should be banned. The Aryan: Blacks and whites should not appear together in the same picture. The Politically Correct: All colors must be equally represented in every picture. The Conservative: Only the rich and powerful can be trusted to take photographs. The Liberal: The Government should provide free cameras to all. The Survivalist: A camera, especially the Nikon F, makes a serviceable hammer and the lens can start fires on sunny days. The Atheist: The spiritual does not exist so the camera cannot steal the soul. A bit of humor from Bill Jay's EndNotes, a regular feature of LensWork magazine. cheap corel draw cheap microsoft office

Imagining Antartica at the John Curtin Gallery
Posted on November 13, 2008 in CorelDRAW Graphics
I went a long to the opening of 'Imagining Antartica' at the John Curtin Gallery this evening. This gallery always does the best openings, with wine and finger food and interesting people. This exhibition is part of the Perth International Arts Festival and it is an interesting juxtaposition of art and science. The exhibition is a collection of archival photographs of antartic explorers, a collection of items found and retained from these amazing exhibitions, some modern arts paintings and photographs inspired by this barren landscape. The most captivating part by far though is a series of video instalations that are in stereoscopic 3D - they were simply mesmerising. The gallery is also set to sub polar temperature to enhance the feeling of being in a land of cold rock and ice. The exhibition was introduced by Professor Ted Snell, who had a list of acknowledgements and thanks so long that it provided every speaker afterwards with great comedy fodder. Who was there - Minister for Culture and the Arts Sheila McHale, Olle Williams, Lawry Hill from Central TAFE, Diana Warnock, Festival Director Lindy Hume, the American Consulate General and a lot of arty types and my Mum. The exhibition is on until March 25 - apparently there are some interesting talks on too.

VENICE: Palazzo Grassi - Italics
Posted on November 08, 2008 in Discreet 3D Studio
Palazzo Grassi – Italics. Francesco Bonami , curator of the Italics exhibition at Palazzo Grassi , until March 22nd, 2008, describes Italian contemporary art as a train for which some of its cars would have already crossed borders and oceans and others have been in the maze of the Italian contemporary history. “Italics. Italian Art between Tradition and Revolution, 1968-2008” is a journey into 40 turbulent years in search of an answer through the works of new, forgotten, unknown, overlooked and well-known names. “Italics” is an open journey that takes the risk of not finding an answer but perhaps uncovering more questions and more doubts. “Italics” is not a survey aimed at reaching a clear cut “Who’s Who” but instead an exploration to find out why Italy has been hovering on the threshold of a more encompassing world for so long. “Italics” has been conceived as vessel to carry the viewer into a territory which only seems familiar, but in which many of its facets remain untouched and undiscovered. The final question posed by “Italics” is why Italian artists failed to achieve the international recognition they so merited — and which the show justly hopes to provide. The success of “Italics” will be measured by its capacity to provide many possible answers and discover even more questions.” Francesco Bonami.

I've got the wrong attitude to privacy
Posted on November 01, 2008 in Discreet 3D Studio
Hot weather seems to make my humble laptop's display adaptor even more prone to freezing and it got to the stage yesterday where I needed to use SLeek, a Windows Vista and XP client based on libsecondlife. I was actually very impressed with it, the only obvious issue being limited functionality (it could revolutionise inventory management) and, more immediately, the fact that it transformed my avatar into a harlequin. Not unpleasant (a lot better than being ruthed) but you need to be prepared to reverse the process and I wasn't. I'm note sure how this relates in terms of functionality to the client produced by Katharine Berry but it'll do for me. Of course, if everyone used SLeek all the time, SL would not be the place it is. Being able to chat to and, more importantly, IM people I know is cool though. I probably need to do more development offline as well in the LSLEditor. Pity there isn't an offline version of the LSLWiki. Coming back into SL after one of many crashes, I found an unexpected av in the Studio. The walls and doors were closed so I guess she just tp'd in for a nose (or maybe I'd left a wall open and she'd walked in and closed it; Nanci found an open wall later when she left me the droid). I was civil and we exchanged a few pleasantries before she tp'd out again but I felt that my space had been messed with. On reflection, this was so wrong. When it's not being used for other purposes, the Studio (and the rest of the house) should be open and have something biology-related that interests the casual visitor and that changes on a regular basis. After all, that's how I found out about SL, through investigating Genome and similar sites. In the unlikely event that it gets really popular, it could be franchised to SN. This sounds like a good use for the RezzBox or something similar. How about a History of Microbiology exhibition (with simulated labs belonging to luminaries such as Koch and Fleming) that changes decade hourly or simulated environments that can be explored to see the microflora or a fake shop showing the importance of microbes in the food industry. Maybe even using the Studio as a base for geocaching-type SLQuests? Will griefing become more of a problem? I find that just ignoring griefers works reasonably well. Making some of the functionality conditional on completing a survey should also deter a little. As forecast, I didn't make either meeting yesterday. I was too late for the UK meeting and too early for the ISTE social. Still, I met another early arrival at ISTE who spoke positively about the Blogger's Cafe (on one of the EduIslands?) so when I met Pippy Ballinger later on Education UK and he suggested we go there, I readily agreed. I had some lag issues by this time that made access via the stairs difficult (next time I'm going to fly). The cafe was otherwise empty but we had a nice chat on the roof. Momentary flutter when I saw that the Educator's Coop is offering large parcels for rent at heavily subsidised prices ($80 per year). The prim count is less than half what I have on EduNation, however, and I'm happy to swap prims for area at this time. The idea of being in with a group of experienced and aspirational SLers has its attractions, of course, but I am not short of ideas, albeit that some will doubtless fail. Good luck to the Coop anyway.

Cuban to Launch DVD Label?
Posted on October 25, 2008 in Discreet 3D Studio
Via Wired: Mark Cuban is hiring staff that could form the nucleus of a new DVD label, Wired News has learned, a move that comes as the dot-com billionaire attempts to shatter Hollywood's release window system by making first-run films available simultaneously in theaters, on cable TV, online and on DVD. The label is expected to launch in January with the release of Bubble, the first in a six-part deal between Cuban's 2929 Entertainment and director Stephen Soderbergh, according to a source familiar with the plan. As yet, Cuban and partner Todd Wagner have not announced a DVD publisher for those pictures. Find local technology jobs. In an interview, Wagner would neither confirm nor deny a pending launch. But he said 2929 will pay theatrical exhibitors 1 percent of revenues generated from DVD sales of films they offer in the same window at their theaters. By launching a DVD imprint of their own, Cuban and Wagner would round out a set of assets that covers most but not all of the bases in film distribution. The pair owns holdings that include Landmark Theaters, HDNet Films, the HDNet Movies channel, Rysher Entertainment, Magnolia Films Distribution, 2929 Entertainment and a piece of Lions Gate Films. Online, they have a deal to offer HDNet Films titles on Cinemanow. According to an online job posting, Magnolia Pictures is hiring a DVD accountant whose responsibilities include monitoring inventory levels, working with DVD replicators "to ensure sufficient supplies are available for replenishment," and setting up electronic data interchanges, or EDIs, with vendors and customers. An EDI is a secure electronic transaction and auditing channel between suppliers and vendors, without which it is nearly impossible to do business with big box retailers. The only film known to have debuted on TV, DVD and in theaters the same day so far is Noel, a holiday movie starring Susan Sarandon, Penelope Cruz and Robin Williams in an uncredited role. The film was released last November on cable's TNT, in a handful of theaters and on disc the same day. But the disc was a Flexplay disc that expired in 48 hours, and it was only available on Amazon.com. Neither side will comment but sales were reportedly low, some in the industry say a mere 1,500 copies. The title eventually found distribution under the Screen Media imprint. Screen Media has a distribution deal with Universal Studios Home Entertainment that will put the title in stores on standard DVD for the first time Oct. 25. Soderbergh's murder mystery Bubble is the first 2929 film slated for release across all channels. Some news outlets have erroneously reported that Magnolia's Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room was released simultaneously on TV, DVD and in theaters. In fact, the film has yet to be released on DVD. Hollywood has shunned simultaneous releases, preferring to milk as much cash from each "release window," as the time blocs are known in the industry, before it moves to the next. The traditional model has movies hopping like tiddlywinks from theaters to home video/DVD, pay-per-view, premium cable, broadcast cable and then broadcast television. But as box office proceeds fell and DVD sales began to level off over the summer, even Robert Iger, who has since taken the reins as CEO of The Walt Disney Co., suggested that the theatrical "window" should be snapped shut and DVDs released at the same time. "We can't stand in the way and can't allow tradition to stand in the way of where the consumer can go or wants to go," Iger told analysts. "Windows in general need to change. I don't think it's out of the question that DVDs could be released in the same window as the theatrical release. All the old rules should be called into question because the rules of consumption have changed so dramatically." Exhibitors have cried foul, saying, among other things, that DVDs only sell because theatrical exhibition heightens their profile. "Mr. Iger knows better than to tell consumers -- or Wall Street analysts -- that they can have it all, everywhere, at the same time," said John Fithian, president of the National Association of Theater Owners. "He knows there would be no viable movie theater industry in that new world -- at least not a theater industry devoted to the products of Hollywood. And he should know that Hollywood studios would be just one shriveled vendor among many in that world of movies as commodities only."

Do you have a comment strategy? I mean, why do you post comments at other blogs? Do you do it randomly and impulsively...or do you have a policy, plan, or goal? 5 blog comment posting strategies (1) Opportunistic: Some people target high traffic or heavy influence niche blogs, and post self-serving comments there, hoping to drive traffic to their blog. Basically, it's hijacking a blog for selfish purposes. "Spam" technically refers to messages, in email or blog comments, that display a URL to a commercial or malicious (malware/spyware attaching) site. But "spammy" is the posting of comments, perhaps obsessively, in hopes of attracting attention and getting new people to visit your site. (2) SEO-centric: Others will liberally sprinkle SEO keywords related to their product or expertise, into all posts at other blogs. Again, these commenters are not contributing to a conversation, but are seeking to use another's blog as a tool for achieving a selfish end. (3) Exhibitionistic: This is the compelling desire to express opinions and divulge personal feelings and thoughts to any passing stranger. The comment is posted, not for the benefit of the topic per se, but more to just parade one's ego, expertise, or product in front of others. (4) Sadistic: Trolls, flamers, baiters, con artists, and predators. This is the use of interactive forums to cause trouble, to insult and talk trash to upset people. Attacks people, rather than debating ideas. Personal hostility or deception. (5) Altruistic: More valuable by far are those who are passionate and insightful. They post comments because they care about a topic, issue, or activity. Their comments are designed to help, clarify, question, praise, shame, or challenge. Posting a comment is their way of contributing to the common welfare, forming alliances with like minds, and sharing news, products, or advice with others.
