The Hill of Crosses in Šiauliai, Lithuania, is at the same time mysterious, sacred, and crazy all wrapped up into one. Here are some amazing photos of this unusual tourist spot.

It’s erie. And, I truly don’t understand.

Pharmaceutical Fraud? Prescription for Disaster Documentary
by Robin Good
***Begin Quote***
The following video documentary features contributions of respectful professionals, such as FDA scientist Dr. David J. Graham, who addressed the prescription of Vioxx (a very dangerous drug presently withdrawn from the market) before the US Senate Finance Committee and firmly believes the FDA is “letting people down”.
***End Quote***
Ahh yes, the gooferment is just looking out for … … itself. Its power to reward its friends, punish its enemies, and feather the nests of the anointed.

Web Operating Systems And Web Desktops: A Mini-Guide
***Begin Quote***
Wikipedia defines Web Operating Systems (aka WebOS) as:
“A software platform that interacts with the user through a web browser and does not depend on any particular local operating system.”
***End Quote***
Robin Good summarizes the WEBOS niche. As only he can.
I’m always impressed with what he produces for us in the way of technology direction posts.

What more important technology that the hardware, software, and wetware that makes up a human being? Maybe it doesn’t fit your definition of “technology” but it sure does mine.
Any way, here’s a nice ezine that I’ve been reading for a while. I’ve even interacted with the author and writers. Before I started blogging, some those pearls are probably lost forever in my “knowledge base”.
In my quest to tame the email beast, I have now started using LookOut rules to put stuff in folders. So for example, this ezine gets its own folder because its a keeper.
Brings up the interesting question, is an ezine just a blog with a restricted readership?

In this post, I was trying to show how I went from idea to execution. The last part of the post was supposed to be a WORDPRESS text widget code fragment. (Other WORDPRESS bloggers might be amused at my stumbling attempts and those further back on the learning curve may be able to jump over my blind spot.) Interesting was that although I can see what I put in, it didn’t get echoed in the feed.
Here’s the code as a jpeg. You should be able to see it, but not cut ‘n’ past it.
Interesting?

Here’s a quick way to edit a jpeg without a lot of trouble. I just “photocopied” Ron Paul’s website to a jpeg. Uploaded it to PICNIK. Cropped it to the size I needed. Downloaded the result.
Input:
Output:
Now I wanted to put the image in a WORDPRESS test widget, like so:
<a href=”http://ronpaul2008.typepad.com/ron_paul_2008/”><img src=”https://reinkefaceslife.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/04/ronpaul2008dailyupdate.jpg” /></a>
But it didn’t work.
Maybe I’m too tired, but I don’t see what’s wrong. Maybe if I sleep on it, I’ll get it! Argh!
With the turkey and blogging pictures, I think I’ve identified a mene. I call it “Successories” meme.
You know that “motivational” poster called Successories that attempts to be a cheerleader. http://www.successories.com/
There’s even an opposite, or “negative” energy, “despair” site http://www.despair.com/ which is sadly true and very funny. They even allow you to create your own. That’s where I made my turkey poster.
Recently, I found the one on “blogging”.
Hence, the meme is a phrase with an appropriate picture.

Of course I am interested in your thinking about email and your strategy for exploiting the opportunity it represents.
I’ve come to the conclusion, that despite handling prestigious amounts of the stuff. Stuff that varies in quality from vile trash to gems. I need a better mechanism.
It all ties into what platform are you using. Web-based uninstalled or client based or a mixture.
It all ties into creating a “brand”, spam, and throughput.
Argh.
Just as one can take too many feeds and be unable to “drink from the fire hose”, it is possible to be overwhelmed with email.
So how to handle it?
Do you use one email and deal with it? No, that single channel quickly hides the significant from the trivial in a mass of mess.
I think my strategy of using different emails or different purposes has allowed me to get to my current state. Unfortunately, I need more.
(1) I need conversations like I see in Gmail.
(2) I need Getting Things Done applied to email.
(3) I need Outlook email boxes galore?
Sigh. I don’t know what I need?
