I recently wiped my whole drive on my macbook because it was full of complete junk and crap that I didn't need. I also needed to install windows so I installed XP and VMware Fusion so I can just boot when I am using snow leopard. It was an annoying process but one that I needed to do because of one of my online classes.

It took them four months and sixty-buck$ to do it but it was worth it — to me.
The same VHS-C to VHS full-size adapter I used for years decided to start jamming in the VHS recorder/player so I sent one tape off-site.

June 2011: I read many texts on the internet, I buy most of my books off the internet, but I do like the heft of a book, the smell and touch of paper. I often read text on my laptop screen but I don't think I'll buy an e-book reader. I had a chat on Facebook about the future of books and book-selling with my niece after she'd written a piece in the Spectator www.spectator.co.uk/books/blog/6968643/a-daunting-future-...
...Anna, I agree with you, but I strive to build evidence based arguments that demonstrate the market failure of turbo-charged capitalism where it pushes the 'logic' of terminator seeds, 8000 cow dairy parlours, and the rationale of intensified food production. Next time you write throw in a seed of hope that some trends aren't inevitable, and I don't mean wishing for a new ice age. Uncle S XXX

Anna Baddeley haha yes it was a little pessimistic. Sadly though I do think this one is inevitable, in the longer term at least. Waterstone's may survive in some shape or form but not without closing a lot of shops — there just isn't a big enough market for full-price literary fiction & non-fiction.

Anna Baddeley thanks Simon that's interesting. He makes some good points among the silly ones, eg would def make sense to get an e-book with your print edition. They are about to take off in a big way though, the new kindle is really good.
Simon Baddeley "About to take off " but we're still on the apron. Kindle's good for book business, critics and judges. I'm less sure about readers. A bound book, sentiment aside, is nothing if not ergonomic. See archivists too on anxieties about long term digital storage. Paper even parchment seems to last better than rejigged ways of story zeros and ones (e.g. binary) - or do you know something I don't...as someone who's enjoyed reading handwriting in archives I suspect we lose something with the loss of pen to paper, as we do with digital drawing and painting. I'm saying William Morris has a point.
Anna Baddeley Yes definitely, although whether a 608 page hardback is more ergonomic than an ebook is debatable! Don't think books are in danger of dying out anytime soon, but I am seeing more and more people with kindles & ebook sales have now outstripped hardbacks on amazon. Interesting times! x
Simon: I'm also impressed with a piece in the NYRB www.nybooks.com/articles/archives/2010/mar/11/publishing-... Publishing: The Revolutionary Future by Jason Epstein who while confessing to inhabiting a study of loved wall-to-wall books writes: The transition within the book publishing industry from physical inventory stored in a warehouse and trucked to retailers to digital files stored in cyberspace and delivered almost anywhere on earth as quickly and cheaply as e-mail is now underway and irreversible. This historic shift will radically transform worldwide book publishing, the cultures it affects and on which it depends. Meanwhile, for quite different reasons, the genteel book business that I joined more than a half-century ago is already on edge, suffering from a gambler’s unbreakable addiction to risky, seasonal best sellers, many of which don’t recoup their costs, and the simultaneous deterioration of backlist, the vital annuity on which book publishers had in better days relied for year-to-year stability through bad times and good. The crisis of confidence reflects these intersecting shocks, an overspecialized marketplace dominated by high-risk ephemera and a technological shift orders of magnitude greater than the momentous evolution from monkish scriptoria to movable type launched in Gutenberg’s German city of Mainz six centuries ago.....
So will I get my paper books via an Espresso machine? Will I come to reading books out of sentiment as I might refuse to use the engine on my sailing boat, or cycle rather than climb into a car, or dig ground for my vegetables rather than buying them over the counter, will I prefer wood joinery to cheaper synthetic construction? What are the questions here? My great grandmother, Lucy Halkett, who died at 99 in 1969 taught me to read when I was very young and taught me, too, to look after a book... “never turn down a page to keep your place; never turn back the spines on themselves; never write in a book.” I've disobeyed her, but even now as I jot in a margin, underline a phrase, fold the tip of a page, stain a book with jam or gravy or wine, leave it in the sand on a beach, push it doubled up into a baggy jacket pocket, I note her advice, prepare my excuses. I think she'd have been fascinated by an e-book, as she wondered at and used the phone and taught me about listening to her valve-powered radio in the 1940s that used to take a minute to warm up, as she flew - in her 80s - to see her family stationed in Hong Kong, and enjoyed watching the television...and got worried, in her 90s, her mind was going because it was taking her nearly an hour to do the Times Crossword.

Sept 2010: LCD screens abhor the sun. Can you read a netbook by the pool or on the beach? It’s a small itch of mine that books will soon go, but for people who collect them for their own sake or their value on the market. Even older library books will have been scanned for researchers to study them on screen – convenient and safer for the original. I’m seeing these devices around – capable of storing a home library in a slice of bread, searching, annotatable, download War and Peace in three languages via WiFi wherever. Someone who is no Luddite and loves reading books wrote a piece in the NYRB on the demise of the book, partly because publishers can’t afford the floorspace to store their current publications, let alone back-lists. I can see the use of these things - Amazon's Kindle, Sony's ebook. Could I have one and make it look dog eared with attention, risk slitting the spine, keep my place turning down corners, spill things on it, press flowers and notes to discover years later? There’s a £20 note slipped in to my 1911 Britannica at home in case one of our children needed it while we were away. With over a thousand wafer thin pages in each of twenty nine volumes that’d be a devil to find without the name of the entry. I’m not sure I can remember it either. But how much easier it will be to keep and circulate books in those places where books are burned, their readers arrested, if texts can be kept on a postage stamp, a canon in a flashdrive, a library on an ipod. All the same a paperbook book is a most ergonomically satisfying technology for reading, even as new dexterities help new readers to flick through and make notes and links on web books. No doubt there’ll be specialist second hand bookstores – though at the moment lack of customers and rising rents has them falling like nine pins, Hay-on-Wye notwithstanding. I believe the new way to get a book on paper with a spine and cover will involve pressing a virtual option button for a hard copy – simple or deluxe with choice of bindings - when ordering on the web, or over a counter at a privatized library or coffee shop with books – beside the Gaggia an impressive web linked combine printer binder – short, tall, grande, venti? At present a hard copy is the default purchase and the option a web copy to download to your gadget. This will be reversed. (see Espresso Book Machine www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q946sfGLxm4 )
I'm back online again after 4mths back in New Zealand, had our container broken into before it left port of Houston!
Our computer stolen along with all my photos and other stuff, that were stored on it. Only have the recent shots on cards etc.
PLEASE make sure you all have photos stored elswhere, extra hard drives, flashdrives,etc, anything extra to your computers!
Although this was my last Texas sunrise I did take the opportunity to take a lot of photos at this site (:
Tools. These are tools of my trade.
I have been reading the Ender's Saga by Orson Scott Card, this one is inspired by the character Olhaldo. Don't start me on the movie adaptation ...
Hat off to visually impaired people. It was really difficult to work blindfolded as such, having no idea where my head was in relation to the computer, where I was in the frame and having this thing sticking into my eye.

I live for the weekends these days and am a HUGE fan of Saturday adventures, whether it's checking out locally made clothes, jewellery, bags, accessories, cards, etc at the Makers' Market, or hunting out a new flavour of Fair Trade coffee at the Global Village Market.
Assortment of photos I put together for Suzie's visitation at Brian Mark Funeral Home in Beloit. I made five flashdrives, with 97 photos each, with maybe one or two duplicates. These are the Screen 4 set.

I realize many of these are already on Flickr. I have revisited some of them and produced better scans of others. I want to preserve these as a set for friends and family, and legacy.
What's in my handbag? I swear it's just not that big but somewhat TARDIS-like on the inside. And I have no idea how it is all going to fit back in.

these are also all sooc because i don't think i can edit them without it looking lame, ya know. my mom just found a book on how to do Reiki on pets. the pictures were so cute!
This reminds of the Simpsons episode where Agent Muller and Skully [from the X files!] came onto the show because they were investigating what they thought was an alien. It was actually Mr. Burns on drugs and he glowed. But I remember that episode used to scare me. And the music too! It was like, creepy. I can't believe I'm that much of a dork.
OH yesterday, funniest thing ever, I was telling my mom
"Do you have friends that when you're telling a story and take a breath they tell their own story?"
She nods her head yes. Then she shakes her head no and goes
"No, those aren't called friends. They're called......relatives."
I cracked up cuz that was actually funny :D
The moment you've all been waiting for: story time.
Oh my Jesus. Today in my Intro to Graphic Arts class, we were working in Illustrator and making stickers and printing it in the print shop. We have this bad ass nice school so we have all new equipment. It's fucking awesome in there. So, we ganged all of our files and nested it or whatever they say, and we went into the print shop which is like...a room away but there's a pathway in the middle of the classroom so it's awesome. I go in there with Sonia because we put our file on the same flash drive and we hang out in there and watch the process of nesting and printing. THEN! M walks into the classroom. I look up because, well, he's as beautiful as a golden sunshine rising in the Italian lowlands. BAHAHA! Anyways, I watch him walk in and he's like asking everyone kind of but he totes looked at me when he asked "Hey, where's the flashdrive?!" Then I kinda looked in his direction and then looked at the table to where the USB was and then looked back at him but he had found it already and he totally reached in front of me and I got to smell how wonderful he smells. He smells like, ahh just wonderful. I don't remember it right now but if you gave me like 2 smells I could sniff out his. So he goes back to the normal room where we were working and then he puts his on the flashdrive then comes back into the room where Sonia and me were at. Then we stand around the computer while the other kids who knew how to work the program were doing stuff with the stickers and sending them to the printer. Sonia found some tape and kept messing with it and M was standing right next to her. You know how the IDs have a little plastic part in the back? Well, this kid sitting in front of us had his on the middle of his neck and it was like right in our faces. Sonia ripped a little piece of tape off and stuck it to that plastic part. Then M saw what she did and took it off and said "No." with this super serious face. Then he starts laughing and he's like "nahh I'm playing." Then he suggested to her that she should rip a piece off and write "I'm gay" on the piece of tape and stick it on his back. She tore off a piece of tape and gave it to him and he found a marker and wrote, instead "I'm Black" on the piece of tape. Don't worry, the kid they stuck it on is African American. So I was like laughing and pointing and laughing at it. Funniest part: My teacher looked at the tape on the back and she just laughed. That was so awesome. So the kid walks off proudly with his new sticker and then M also walks away with him to go watch the stickers print. OH! I forgot, this also happened before we put the tape on the kid.
Kid on the computer: Hey, Adriana!
Adriana: Yeah?
Kid: What's your file named?
Adriana: Adriana
M: Hah! *mimicks me* Adriana!
Adriana: *giggles lightly and takes all of her might not say OMFG HE JUST MADE EYE CONTACT WITH ME AND TALKED TO ME AT THE SAME TIME!!!!!*
The way he said it, he was kinda making fun of me because the name was obvious. But I still cannot believe that he talked to me.
So then back to the kid we put the tape on went to go watch the stickers being printed and then left the chair that was infront of the computer open. So duhh I sat down. Sonia went into the next room because she wanted to talk to our friends in there and she was cool with the teacher. Hah his name is Mr. Walker and everyone says it with a country accent like "mistaa walka." It's funny. So while she was over there, I was sitting in the chair. And then guess who wanders back over to the computer area and gets behind while I'm in the chair? YEAH, IT WAS him. Lol so it's all like awkward and scary for me because the most beautiful man in all of the land [not really true] was behind me and probably leaning on my chair. I had my phone in my hand and I was texting Jennifer and she hadn't texted back so to look cool I resent a message. Hopefully he didn't read it because it was a dorky one. Haha. I wish I had his number so I could text him dorky things :(
That was pretty much it. I mean, after that I really didn't talk to him or look at him. I mean, I did look at him and I told him that I loved him with my eyes and I'm pretty sure he said it back but I mean, you can never tell.
Also, one last thing. When it was time to go back to the other class and get our stuff, I went while he and other kids stayed in the other room where we were printing, including my friend Sonia. I get my stuff, put my awesome sticker away :D, and then I walk back to the other class where we were and then when I was trying to go thru the door, M like turned the corner, kinda like he popped outta no where and almost ran into me. I had my eyes like, fixed on something and I didn't move my face to look up at him when we ran "into" each other so I stayed where I was to make him walk around me. I know, I'm a genius. And I'm also horrible at explaining things so you probably have a horrible mental picture painted by me. Sorry. I told you guys I can't draw for shit and now you expect me to paint a picture in your head?! Nonsense. I sooo took a way longer nap than I needed to so now I'm up at 2 in the morning blogging and curling my hair. Yay.
In Biology today, the whole class researched drugs. We got Opium. I think I did a good job. My teacher is back to her good ol' self again, she started drinking coffee again because she finished her cleanse. Wooo. I have "She's So High" by Tal Bachman stuck in my head. It's so pretty. I want my hair to look like Ke$ha's hair in the Blahx3 vid. It's so cool! That's one of the reasons I was curling my hair right now. But you can't see mwAHAAHAHH. hgdmk I should go. I am seriously going to reblog and favorite every post of fuckyeahtimburton.tumblr.com if someone doesn't stop me.

I've been busy all week working on the photos I took at my young friends wedding last Saturday. It was an outdoor wedding, my first as photographer and I was a bit worried that no photos would be acceptable. I was thankful I was doing it as a favour (wedding present) since it took off some of the stress. Especially with the weather.....a bright white sky behind the wedding party during the ceremony and for many pics afterwards. (the bride wanted the lake and waterbombers in the background). So I had lots of work to do. Prettified about 250 photos, quite a few of which I'm quite proud. But this is the only one I have permission to use at present. The bride and groom are from out of town, and I just completed the folders today, put them on a flashdrive, and had various ones printed off. Will get them to the couple next week. This interesting young woman was the groom's sister, and I had fun working with photos of her. I learned how to selective colour.....at least to some extent! Yay!!
...and i look out the window, see you with your friends....and i can't help but feel lonely...
Carmen still hasnt give me back my flashdrive, so i uploaded this one. i took this yesterday morning with my camera (havent used it in aages). This is Sam's (samantha) eye =) she liked the one i ddi with my eye, so the other morning when she came to my house before school, i took this...then i edited it with picnik...
I think it has a lonely feel to it, thats why i chose the title and the words up there. xD

Makes for a hell of a week.
I have a new daypack, after getting alone with the old LeSportsac for years. This new companion is a black Timbuk2 Extra Credit Messenger. The old pal still works fine and retires at home most of the time.
This messenger bag has a specialty, it’s a shoulder bag but can serve as a backpack as well. It can be easily turned into a handsome backpack by uncovering the two hidden shoulder straps when the bag is carrying more load. He has accompanied me for my recent Europe trip, served as a daypack and camera bag.
What does it hold in everyday life?
1 book for leisure reading, i am now reading “LOTR-Pt2 The Two Towers”
1 blue-cover notebook, square grid – for sketches/ notes/ cut & paste/ and journals
my loving filofax cuban – personal organizer/ contact list
Kata camera bag and my loving Canon camera inside
Coffee mug from Starbucks – serves as drinking water bottle or wine cup, don’t use it for carbonated drinks, the lid is not as tight as you think!
shopping bag
carpenter folding ruler
umbrella – it is raining recently and i am still looking for an umbrella that can withstand strong wind
PSP – i have been playing the same LocoRoco for nearly a year, the game is simple and short
Casio calculator
Cork screw – my previous 3 years old one is confiscated by Venice airport security
Colour pencils from Faber-Castell, aquacolour (forgot to put in when the photo is taken)
Pen case – 3 LAMY Safari fountain pens filled with red/ blue/ blue black ink respectively
Pencil case – Another 2 black LAMY Safari (fountain pen and rollerball) + pencils + highlighter + USB flashdrive + sharpener
So, messenger bag from Timbuk2 is quite roomy ya! I can say the fabric is strong and showerproof, eventhough i have not try it in heavy rain yet. But with previous few experiences in showery rain, i still managed to keep all my belongings safe and dry. I walk to my office everyday.
