  2. aaaah ..it's that time of year again...... April 'fools' 2004; Please tell us the best April Fools prank or joke that you did to someone...or had done to you... My 'best' April Fools prank was one time when I was around 11 or 12 ...I decided to secretly swap the sugar in the family sugar bowl with salt. Well, my Father got up early to go to work...he got up a little cranky as well. You can imagine his reaction when he poured his usual 2 scoops on his Corn Flakes for breakfast and ..... aaaaaw.....I can still remember his reaction and loud curses to this day. Yes , my butt got beat...and the prank wasn't considered funny ...until about 20 years later...LOL :D :D :D :D :D :D

  5. Xbox price drop to boost sales Microsoft has reduced the price of its Xbox games console in North America by $30. The cut, which had been widely expected by analysts, brings the cost of the machine down to $149.99. The price drop is widely seen as a way of boosting sales of the Xbox in the coming months. The software giant is locked in a battle with Sony's PlayStation 2 and Nintendo's GameCube for the hearts and wallets of gamers. Games are big business. Some $10bn was spent on consoles and games in the US last year. Going down The Xbox has been slowly dropping in price since it was first released in November 2001. It initially cost $299. But this fell to $199 in May 2002 and to $179 a year later. A further cut had been expected this year, ahead of the annual video games trade show, E3 in Los Angeles in May. It is not yet clear if and when the price drop in the US will be mirrored elsewhere in the world. As well as trimming the cost of the Xbox, Microsoft also said it was reducing the prices on games such as Project Gotham Racing 2 and Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge. Overall, sales of consoles have been slowing down, despite the falling cost of owning a games machine. But analysts say the price cuts could help to persuade more people to buy a console. They expect Sony to follow Microsoft and take a fistful of dollars off the price tag of its PlayStation 2 console. The Xbox retails in the UK for around £129. By comparison the PS2 sells for £139, while the GameCube is only £79. Story from BBC NEWS: http://news.bbc.co.uk/go/pr/fr/-/2/hi/technology/3579959.stm :scratchin:
  6. Simputer goes on sale A cheap handheld computer designed by Indian scientists has been launched after a delay of nearly three years. The team first came up with the idea for the Simputer in 2001 to help India's poor join the internet age. But development of the computer was hampered by lack of investment and by little interest in the idea from computer manufacturers. The Simputer was officially launched on Friday and the basic model costs around $240. Cheap and accessible The Simputer is the first computer to be designed and manufactured in India. It was developed by scientists and engineers at the Indian Institute of Science in Bangalore who were looking for a way of taking the internet revolution to India's rural masses. Only nine in every 1,000 Indians own a computer, mainly because the machines are simply too expensive. The Simputer was designed to provide cheap and accessible computing on the go. But it had a troubled time moving out of the development labs and into commercial production. In the end, the government-owned Bharat Electronics agreed to manufacture the handheld. The device goes on sale in April and the backers of the project hope to sell 50,000 in the first year. Branded as the Amida Simputer, the handheld comes in three versions. The basic model has a monochrome screen, a 206Mhz processor and 64MB of memory. It also has an internal microphone, speakers and a battery that lasts for six hours People can use the Simputer to surf the net, send e-mails or organise their finances, using a stylus to write on screen. It also comes with software to let users type notes and letters in Hindi and Kannada. In order to keep costs down, the computer uses the Linux operating system.

  7. I share, you rip off, they pirate Copyright law has become a tool for the powerful, argues technology analyst Bill Thompson, but that is not the way it is supposed to be. I spent the weekend enjoying the products of other people's intellectual effort, and all for free. I listened to the Grey Album, read some of Lawrence Lessig's new book on creativity and the internet, and watched The Return of the King on DVD at a friend's house. Only one of these activities was entirely legal: Professor Lessig has made a copy of his book available under a Creative Commons licence which allows it to circulate freely without payment, as long as it is not exploited commercially. One was pretty clearly illegal. The Return of the King is not released on DVD until 25 May, but all six gigabytes (or so), is available to download for those with a broadband connection and patience. Happily for my son Max, who is a big fan of the movie, that number includes a friend of mine who was pleased to show off his success in stealing from Warner Home Video. I felt uneasy about enjoying the movie, since although anyone can make music in a bedroom studio, film-making needs the millions of dollars that come from DVD rentals to support future work. So I would like to reassure Peter Jackson that Max will be spending his pocket money on the film when it appears in the shops. But my third exercise in online distribution was the really interesting one. Legal battleground The Grey Album consists of 12 songs created as an experiment by DJ Danger Mouse. He mixed the vocals from Jay-Z's Black Album with music elements sampled from The Beatles' White Album and circulated a few thousand promotional copies before EMI, who own the copyright, notified him that the album was in breach of their copyright and it was withdrawn. Danger Mouse wants his music to be heard and is being stopped by a large corporation and its lawyers: his only route to an audience is through the web Naturally, copies are circulating widely on the internet, and a couple of weeks ago one of my students was kind enough to pass the files on to me. It is not, I have to admit, great music, but it is interesting and worth listening to as an example of what sampling and mixing can do. The Grey Album is clearly a new work of art, inspired by its two sources in the same way as Cezanne influenced Picasso. Yet EMI believe they can stop it, and are using copyright law to do so. Whether or not they really do have a strong legal case, and the Electronic Frontier Foundation has questioned the validity of their claims, their expensive lawyers have managed to persuade Danger Mouse to withdraw his work from public view, and this is where Professor Lessig comes in. Lawrence Lessig is a professor of law at Stanford University and one of the leading figures in the Creative Commons. In 1999 he wrote Code, the book that for the first time made it clear to non-technical people that the internet is controlled by the programs that create it, and that regulating the net is not only possible but inevitable. Since then he has been heavily involved in the battle against those who are using new technologies and copyright law to restrict our online freedoms, especially our freedom to create new work that builds on the work of others. Free Culture argues that cultural creativity is being undermined by rights holders who are abusing the power they have under existing copyright and intellectual property law. For him, "the opposite of a free culture is a 'permission culture' - a culture in which creators get to create only with the permission of the powerful, or of creators from the past". Danger Mouse has not been granted that permission, and the result is that his music is forced underground, circulating via websites which operate in fear of a cease and desist letter from a corporate lawyer. Creative possibilities Both Prof Lessig and I can appreciate the difference between listening to the Grey Album and watching Return of the King. Danger Mouse wants his music to be heard and is being stopped by a large corporation and its lawyers: his only route to an audience is through the web. Peter Jackson wants to control the circulation of his films in order to recover the costs of making them and pay for more, and it is reasonable for him to do this. As Prof Lessig says in the introduction to his book, "a free culture is not a culture without property; it is not a culture in which artists don't get paid. A culture without property, or in which creators can't get paid, is anarchy, not freedom". Copyright emerged as a bargain between creative people and the state, a bargain which gave creators certain legal rights in the belief that doing so would benefit society as a whole. It is hard to see how EMI's suppression of the Grey Album helps anyone. Whatever their legal rights, EMI have no moral right to limit Danger Mouse's creativity in this way. By doing so, they make it clear that existing laws are simply not good enough to cope with the creative possibilities which are open to us all in the digital world. We need to find the balance between the freedom exemplified by the Grey Album and the anarchy towards which completely unregulated sharing of stolen intellectual property could lead.

  8. From www.darwinawards.com: Living on Zionist Time 1999 Darwin Awards Winner Confirmed True by Darwin 5 September 1999, Jerusalem In most parts of the world, the switch away from Daylight Saving Time proceeds smoothly. But the time change raised havoc with Palestinian terrorists this year. Israel insisted on a premature switch from Daylight Savings Time to Standard Time to accommodate a week of pre-sunrise prayers. Palestinians refused to live on "Zionist Time." Two weeks of scheduling havoc ensued. Nobody knew the "correct" time. At precisely 5:30pm on Sunday, two coordinated car bombs exploded in different cities, killing three terrorists who were transporting the bombs. It was initially believed that the devices had been detonated prematurely by klutzy amateurs. A closer look revealed the truth behind the explosions. The bombs had been prepared in a Palestine-controlled area, and set to detonate on Daylight Saving Time. But the confused drivers had already switched to Standard Time. When they picked up the bombs, they neglected to ask whose watch was used to set the timing mechanism. As a result, the cars were still en-route when the explosives detonated, delivering the terrorists to their untimely demises. :wha':

  11. Umma with Broadband....hmmmm ...be very very afraid :D :D :D
  12. Northern Ireland set for 100% broadband Full broadband access is expected to be available throughout Northern Ireland by the end of next year. The region will be the first in Europe to have 100% broadband access. Broadband is the system which allows "always on" access to the internet at much faster speeds than traditional dial-up connections. The government is keen to promote its take-up, saying use of broadband could produce £4.7bn in productivity and cost savings for small and medium-sized businesses in the UK. On Monday, Enterprise Minister Ian Pearson said all homes and businesses would have broadband access. BT has been awarded the contract to deliver the services by the end of 2005. Through broadband, a small engineering firm is competing on the world's stage in the aerospace and automotive industry Ian Pearson Enterprise minister Mr Pearson said local businesses would have a level playing field to compete in a global economy. "This vitally important contract will deliver the government's broadband vision of a fully connected Northern Ireland. In turn it will help make Northern Ireland more competitive," he said. The minister said Datum Tool Design in Ballynahinch - where the announcement was made - was a classic example of just how beneficial to business broadband could be. "Here we have a small engineering firm located in a small town in Northern Ireland," said Mr Pearson. "Yet, through broadband, it is competing on the world's stage in the aerospace and automotive industry." 'Tremendous boost' Bill Murphy, the chief executive of BT Northern Ireland, said there had been "a groundswell for broadband availability" which had exceeded any other region of the UK or Europe. "It is a tremendous tribute to be a key part of this momentum to enable all businesses and households in Northern Ireland and bring the very real benefits of connectivity," he said. "This will ensure that Northern Ireland is a seriously attractive area for existing company expansion and new inward investment." John Gilliland, the president of the Ulster Farmers' Union, said broadband access would be a tremendous boost to all rural areas. "Many rural communities have already been campaigning to bring broadband to their locality. "This demonstrates the demand for the service and having it available to every household in Northern Ireland will ensure that a rural/urban divide does not open up. It's very good news for rural families and rural businesses." Story from BBC NEWS: http://news.bbc.co.uk/go/pr/fr/-/2/hi/uk_n...and/3578763.stm :psychofun: :psychofun:

  16. Saxophonist Andre Ward Re-Defines Smooth Jazz Words: Hard Hittin' Harry Saxophonist Andre Ward is re-defining and reinventing smooth jazz with the highly anticipated release of his sophomore album effort, Steppin Up (Orpheus Music). The set arrives in stores on Tuesday March 30, 2004. Steppin' Up borrows elements from various formats such as R&B, Gospel, Hip-Hop and Jazz thus attracting new listeners to his unique and innovative sound. The existing debut single is a smooth jazz version of R. Kelly's smash hit, Step In the Name Of Love. The re-vamped instrumental version is currently on heavy rotation averaging over 300 spins a week on stations such as CD-101 (New York), KCOZ (MO), KUAP (AR), and WFSK (Nashville). . Andre's rendition of Step In The Name of Love has reached a listening audience of well over one million people on a weekly basis and still gaining momentum. He says, I love that song. R. Kelly is one of the best R&B songwriters we have today. Being that we're both natives of Chicago, I understood the stepping mentality and I felt that R. Kelly really represented on that song, so I'm just paying homage from an instrumental standpoint. Andre's 2003 debut album Feelin' You, received the top 5 position in Billboard Magazine's Contemporary Jazz Chart. His latest album, Steppin' Up is an evolution from his debut album, and he is determined to take the term smooth jazz to the next level. There are tons of saxophone players, however, exactly what will make Andre Ward distinctive from the rest? He says, I took it back and studied legendary vocalists such as Sam Cooke and Al Green. I wanted to make the saxophone sound like a voice. My sound is an exceptional one that will appeal to everyone. The stylish musician describes the entire 6 month recording process of Steppin Up as a labor of love, as well as the final two months an invigorating process of intense writing and lengthy recording. This time around, Andre produces most of the album, and he teams up with veteran producer Yasha (Najee, Alex Bugnon) and Michael Powell (Anita Baker). Stellar songs such as Keep Running emit Hiphop influences, whereas All I Ever Ask, featuring Chantel Rose, can easily crossover to any market. The moody Utopia will transport the listener into another dimension, while Andre's version of Simply Red's Holding Back The Years features Maurice Jacobs on vocals. Andre Ward is definitely no newcomer to the game, and his energetic live performances leaves his fans breathless. He has worked with legendary artists such as Freddie Jackson, Will Downing, Dizzy Gillespie, Teena Marie, Me'Lisa Morgan, and Angela Bofill. Andre Ward is expanding the base of smooth jazz listeners, touching both young and old. This is beyond smooth jazz, it is cutting-edge. :)

  18. MORRISSEY SELLS OUT Morrissey’s five night stand in Los Angeles has completely sold out. Tickets for the singer’s live return at the Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles this April were gone within one hour of going on sale yesterday morning (March 27). "It really isn’t about money," he said about the shows where ticket prices ranged between $50 and $65. "It’s a nice venue and I think it’s convenient to people to come on different nights." He told KROQ radio in LA he expected the shows to have a different atmosphere each night. "I think it’s never the same regardless of what happens, because the audience take part so much and the audience are so lively and interesting so it never feels like the same old night, ever." Morrissey said he was looking forward to return to the stage, where he’ll be playing most of the material from his May 17 release, ‘I am the Quarry’. "[being on stage], it really is the best part because it’s like a bull being released from the pen and nobody can stop you and nobody can interfere with what you do and it’s fantastic" Morrissey has just added another date in Anaheim, California on April 18 and says he will be on the road for most of 2004. :strumma: :strumma:
  19. Pasadena Star News Now It's Overhead at The Glass House By Jennifer Cho Salaff Staff Writer Saturday, March 27, 2004 - "Fall Back Open," the second full-length release from Athens, Ga.-based band Now It's Overhead, is a decided departure from the group's first album. While the indie band's self-titled record, released in 2001, focused on the beginning and disintegration of a romantic relationship, "Fall Back Open" revolves around themes much more vast: self-acceptance, coming of age and the search for meaning and fulfillment. "The songs are definitely a direct reflection of what I'm going through," lead singer and producer Andy LeMaster, 28, revealed while taking a break during the SXSW Music, Film and Interactive Festival in Austin, Texas. "Each song is a different avenue to putting an end to the cycle of searching for the right answer. The themes vary from sexual identity to mortality. It's not a lightweight record," he said, laughing. Now It's Overhead includes Orenda Fink on bass, keyboards and vocals; Maria Taylor on keyboards and vocals, and Clay Leverett on drums and vocals. Fink and Taylor (also of Azure Ray) provide ethereal harmonies and Leverett (frontman of Athens band Lona) collaborates with LeMaster to create rhythms both organic and otherworldly. Notable guest vocals include Omaha-based band Bright Eyes' Conor Oberst and R.E.M.'s Michael Stipe. LeMaster's soul-searching has resulted in lyrics that are honest, heartbreaking and reflective. The music, soundscapish and cinematic, has qualities of immediacy and longing. "The Decision Made Itself" is perhaps the most personal song on the 9-track album. At the core of the lyrics is a celebration of self-acceptance. Some said I should have done it a long time ago Just kept it hangin' over Somehow I never went but wanted to go Out into the open. It was a long year, and I wasted it Now each breath's getting shorter Get it over with but I'm not convinced It will lift my shoulders. Struck in slow motion 'til this is through And it's kill or be killed I'm facing up to it with nothing to lose The decision made itself. "It's a bit mysterious and kind of universal enough to be about anything, but for me, it's directly inspired by accepting myself as a gay person," LeMaster said. "(Writing it) was both difficult and cathartic. I mean, I said, "I'm going to ... put this on the record, I'm going to lay it on the line.' It's extremely freeing to do that. That's the biggest thing I get out of music -- losing the shackles." When he's not writing, producing or recording for Now It's Overhead, LeMaster is also playing guitar, bass and keyboards for Bright Eyes, producing for various bands and co-running Chase Park Transduction Recording Studio in Athens. With so many concurrent projects, LeMaster realizes there's the danger of becoming spread too thin. "It has sort of evolved recently where I am spending the most time with (the band,)" he said. "I'm aware of trying not to do too much. I went to a school of visual arts and I did too much at one time, so I decided to not do it anymore. I wanted to focus more on my music." LeMaster, who grew up in Toccoa, Ga., a 9,300-population town located about 80 miles northeast of Atlanta, dove into music after graduating from the University of Georgia in Athens. Athens, he says, has a great music scene. It's a small enough place that musicians can share ideas and get inspired by each other. "It's a really good music community, you can still live cheaply and work there," he said. "Plus, it's the gothic, mysterious, lush south. I love it. It's magical and weird." :strumma: :strumma:

  22. Intel plans to rebrand CPUs MONDAY , 29 MARCH 2004 By TOM PULLAR-STRECKER Does speed matter, or does performance come down to the size of your cache? Both are important but dominant chip maker Intel believes consumers are attaching too much importance to the clock speed of processors when choosing PCs. The company, which supplies about 85 per cent of the market for PC central processing units (CPUs), plans to introduce a new labelling system for its most popular processor lines in May. It will encourage retailers to draw less attention to the clock speed of PCs, which is measured in gigahertz, by adopting of a numbering system for processors that is designed to provide a more holistic indication of their features. Intel Australia and New Zealand spokesman Dan Anderson says the company is concerned that customers may not realise the size of a chip's cache and the speed, type and position of its bus are also key determinants of performance. Instead of having their clock speeds headlined, Pentium Celeron, Pentium 4 and Pentium M, processors will be branded with three-digit codes starting with 3, 5, and 7 respectively, which may go up in increments of five to denote different models within each range. Higher numbers should indicate a chip has either a higher clock speed or more performance features. But Mr Anderson says Intel can't preclude the possibility a chip with a lower three digit code may be faster than one with a higher number, in some circumstances. He says Intel doesn't intend to hide the clock speed of processors in its branding material. The gigahertz rating of chips will appear in smaller print, alongside details of other features. The change is expected to come into effect at the same time Intel launches its Pentium M chip for notebooks, codenamed Dophan. Mr Anderson says Intel will need to educate retailers on the changes to point-of-sale branding. The clock speed of a processor is an indication of how many tasks a CPU can undertake in a billionth of a second, though this is complicated by the fact some processors have more than one core and can carry out multiple instructions simultaneously. The size of the cache determines how much frequently-used data can be stored close to the processor core where it can be accessed quickly. The choice of bus determines how quickly and efficiently data can be moved to and from the processor. Intel won't rebrand chips that are designed for computer servers. Mr Anderson says Intel is looking at introducing a 4 gigahertz processor by the end of the year. The highest clock speed in its range today is 3.4 gigahertz.
  23. The phrase, almost a cliche in the cult of American hip-hop music, whips the crowd listening to Malaysian rap duo Too Phat into a frenzy. The staccato beats and displays of urban ghetto fashion could place the scene in any of hundreds of U.S. or European clubs. "Too Phat's really good but they need to be exposed more outside of Malaysia," gushed Anna Hazlett, a 19-year-old British student. "But I think they could be popular in the U.K." The increasingly global appeal and popularity of hip-hop could thrust Asian acts such as Too Phat before a wider audience, music industry executives say -- possibly even into the tough North American market. EMI Group Plc signed Too Phat in 1998 -- through its "Positive Tone" label -- and Singapore hip-hop group "Urban Xchange" in February. Both could find appeal at home and abroad, said Caroline Qwek of EMI Music South East Asia. "Asian hip-hop music has come a long way and I think Too Phat certainly has the potential to do a lot more," Qwek, an international marketing director, told Reuters. In China, a new "Generation Y" has embraced hip-hop as an emblem of free-spirited expression while the sound has been a dominating influence in Tokyo sub-culture since the late 1980s. Artists such as Taiwan's Machi and South Korea's Drunken Tiger also have strong local followings although their appeal is limited somewhat by lyrics written in their native language (read more) http://abcnews.go.com/wire/Entertainment/r...040328_120.html
