O #fail da semana: Técnica da esponja.
Resolvi usar laranja porque o Daniel (um grande amigo meu) cismou que queria me ver de unhas laranjas. E como a gente ia se ver ontem, resolvi atender o seu pedido.
Queria usar os dois esmaltes há muito tempo e resolvi fazer a técnica da esponja. Daí, começou a desgraceira...
O Férias formou MUITAS bolinhas, nem o roxinho salvou (ainda bem que não apareceram nas fotos) e também manchou demais; mesmo sendo uma cor linda, isso já me enervou (e eu deveria confiar mais no meu sexto sentido, porque não trouxe quando comprei a coleção toda da Hits, foi depois porque fiquei com dó rsrsrs). Na próxima foto vocês verão o quanto usei ele.
Quanto ao Refresco, só mancha um pouco, o que é comum pra um tom pastel. Passei ele no pé e ficou muito lindo e não formou bolinha alguma; posto a foto durante a semana. Mas o efeito esponja na mão não apareceu; segundo o Dani ficou parecendo uma francesinha.
Enfim, ficou tudo feio e não gostei. Disse o Dani que as cores ficaram bonitas, mas mesmo com o elogio dele, cheguei em casa e tirei tudo.
This is a nice looking pannier, but not at all designed to actually stay on a rack. Mine falls off 2-3 times per day. Luckily no major accidents have been caused, and my laptop (which I now realize should not go in one of these) still works, but this thing was already falling apart, as well as falling off, after 1 month of use.
Might work as a short ride/market bag, but don't ride over any bumps or 10 mph. It IS, however, pretty effectively waterproof.
I took this picture with my cellphone, so please excuse the bad quality. It says: "push for emergency".
If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
— 1 Corinthians 13 (NIV)
An example of why I don't like DRM...
A Canadian who's over here helping with stability ops (supervising road building, etc...) came to me with his iPod shuffle. His daughter gave it to him, and loaded a bunch of songs on it -- using her computer.
He's frustrated because he can't put any new songs on it without erasing the songs his daughter picked for him, Apple's DRM will only sync one Shuffle to one computer at a time. He found a website that documents a hack to add songs to the shuffle and asked me if I could do it for him.
I warned him I'd never tried this before and it might wipe the songs.
I obliged, and now he can put new songs on it, but it wiped out his previous library. Now he's sad because he can't listen to the songs his daughter picked out for him.
So here's a guy who's halfway across the world in a war zone trying to fix the place and he can't put new music on a device which he owns... Really? He owns the device, but is locked out.
This is real-world sadness. I mean, there are people worse off, Afghanistan is full of them, but I can tell by his voice that music meant a lot to him. He was desperately trying to figure out a way to both listen to his old music and add a few songs.
I'm restoring as much of his library as I can, he knows which albums were on there. Thanks LimeWire.
DRM breaks otherwise good products.
First attempt at suspension = FAIL. In this attempt, the el-wire is joined to baling wire. While the wire was stiff enough, it didn't scale well, and the wire tried to resume its original curled up shape.
The resulting oblong shapes are interesting, I'll admit, but too hard to replicate consistently, and in the end, just not what I'm going for. I'd like to investigate these shapes in the future, though.
having lots of trouble with youtube uploads.
1. login fails. 403 error.
2. login and upload are successful but conversion fails.
3. installed ffmpeg to preconvert .mov to .flv but ffmpeg gave error saying it didn't recognize the .mov file.
.mov files are being created by photobooth application on mac os x. 10.5.4
but i can get the same movie files to upload when doing it manually from web interface. argh.
I've had one hell of a bad year. Here's why I was kicked out of the Philippines for those that missed my Fail Festival presentation:

my freshman year in college I went on a road trip with 5 friends all over the Eastern US. one of our stops was in Panama City, FL. At the beach we attempted to do some poses with handstands. the failed attempts were hilarious! we have so many great memories together from this trip!

Final fail of Alpine Design bag 900-FJ-FH bought at Sports Authority. Pity, the bag still looks good. Too bad we could not find a place to register the observation. Maybe the brand owner finds it here.

You may want to lower the sound before clicking to view 47 seconds of video.
Stick a little Canon camera out of a car window and you get a lot of wind noise.
Plus dirt blown on the lens.
But still, so very much beauty.

Northern Lights (FAIL)
Decided to chance our luck with the recent amazing photos that have appeared of the northern lights from Scotland. Sadly we only saw a couple a flashes of it in the night sky!
Yes the mini cafetiere plunger fits the matching Bodem cup, but if you have broken the jug and think you can do without, consider that when you have plunged, you won't actually have access to the contents of the cup anymore.
Maybe I should call this Cleverness Fail?
it really slows me down to take my right hand off the keyboard and use the mouse. so I got to thinking, what if I get a split keyboard and put a trackpad in between the two halves? that way I could manage the cursor without my hands leaving the keyboard. so I did that. the trackpad was too low, so I propped it up with a book. still, I can't reach it without taking my hand off the home keys. bummer.
The 50x70cm poster "Dr.Fail" is our participation for the SEEAR Exhibition 2013 themed "Superheroes".
The brief was to create a character and visualize him through a poster.
-
The poster exhibits the origins of Dr.Fail through three basic timelines. Two of them are centered around his personal life and events, that inspired him to build machines and weird inventions, most of which failed miserably. The third timeline is focused on his relationship with Megumi, the girl who unwillingly broke his heart and transformed him to a super villain.
-
The idea behind the poster is not to show the character itself, but instead allow the viewer, through an emotional association, to visualize the character based on similar experiences. The color theme and the choise of the data circle, was inspired by the character's japanese origin, which is enhanced by the use of english and japanese languages for the legend and text of the poster.

Um, what drop downs? I've tried in Firefox in Win/Linux and IE, so it doesn't seem like a browser issue...
Mystery Train - North Wales to Skegness 30th August 1982. 47236 took the train to Skegness & there was a rumour that money had changed hands to get the driver to fail the 47, so we could be rescued. 25's took us back to Derby then a 47/4 took us back.
Steve Lambert and I chatting about the merits of live action, documentation, and whether you can just photoshop everything. This was before his LA show.

Take a close look at the Fianna Fail election posters in Cork (this one is John Dennehy's) and you will see that they are printed in Dublin. Now, I have no doubt that Fine Gael, Labour, the Greens, etc. print their election posters in Dublin too. However, they have the good sense no to advertise the fact on their posters!
