Das eez kaput! Sometime around 2002 I spaced the entire database table that mapped individual entries to categories. Such is life. What follows is a random sampling of entries that were associated with the category. Over time, the entries will be updated and then it will be even more confusing. Wander around, though, it's still a fun way to find stuff.

brian d. foy : iMortar

iMortar will allow soldiers to connect, via Wi-Fi, to other mortars in their area. We use to have a problem shooting at the same target, but once we network the mortars, once you select a target, other mortars in your network will not shoot at the same target , said an FSS spokesman wearing a black mask. Can I have your shoes? I have none.

I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry.

William Safire on the intersection between weblogs and the TIA

Rather, I have in mind the brief notation of the day's highlight, the amusing encounter or useful insight that will someday evoke a memory of yourself when young. Such a journal entry perhaps an e-mail to your encoded personal file can now be supplemented by scanned-in articles, poems or pictures to create a "commonplace book." You will then have a private memory-jogger and resource for reminiscence at family gatherings.

I had to buy a new bicycle tire yesterday.

That was okay. In a moment of rare clarity I noticed that my rear brakes had been misaligned long enough that it was only dumb luck which had kept my tire from exploding. I went to the barber's and then walked up to the bicycle store where I discovered that they are printing URLs on tires these days. I am not especially surprised. Just upset.

Petr Cimprich : XML::Directory.pm 0.93

I mention this because I chipped in and helped to modularize the DTD , enabling you to "extend the list of allowable elements using parameter entities, so that extended XML files can be still validated. ... [F]or instance, a directory of .dbk files, might be munged for <articleinfo> data which would be included in the output. The output could then be cached and munged again later using another SAX filter or XSLT."

As I write this, I am listening to Desmond Tutu being interviewed

and answering questions about the elections in Zimbabwe. A listener called in and asked what Americans, given their general tunnel-vision and a growing apathy with the state of affairs, could take away from other nations experience of democracy . You could hear Bishop Tutu giggling all the while the caller spoke. When he finally replied, he paused and said : Well, if I were to be truly facetious I would suggest that you learn how to count. He then continued with a serious and considered answer.

M.J. Milloy : Will that beer consumption pull us out of the recession?

I think what you meant to ask was "Could Wayne have rubbed Patrick's nose in it any more during the post-game interviews?" Brodeur played well and he deserves his medal -- frankly, he deserved to win for being the only one not to bring his dumbass NHL helmet to the Olympics -- but he'll never be Patrick, no matter what The Loon tells him. And, I prefer to think we won in spite of having Eric Lindros on our team. I mean he did score the sixth goal against the Belarussians, after all.

On slideshows :

Before the templating engine, before the database abstraction class and before the weblog API there was the slideshow tool. We've all written them. They all suck. Partly because there is too much to keep track of and every widget tries to accomodate every step : the images; the scaled images; the list and ordering the of images (how many times have you sullied your file names with 0045_ prefixes?); the meta data or commentary associated with an image; the look and feel of the actual webpages. And while an all-in-one package is always fun my experience has been that, in a slideshow, context, they usually come at the price of zero-flexibility. Apache::Album is a pretty good example. It is a very cool and very easy widget to set up. But, the HTML is hard-coded and meta data is stored free-form in YA file that sits in the image directory and it only outputs HTML. So, I spent the better part of two months, a while back, tearing the guts of the package apart trying to make it more flexible with things like subclasses for output formats, XPath-itis for meta data and all manner of bells and whistles. I learned a bunch of stuff in the process but ultimately failed to create anything more flexible or robust. One of things I learned is that you can use ImageMagick to read and write comments into image files which got me thinking that you could store all of your metadata as an XML blob in the comments field. Which is pretty interesting since when you think about it a directory listing is basically a bare-bones slideshow. With some clever caching techniques you could simply attach a server based handler to a directory of images -- we'll ignore how you get the meta data in there for the moment -- and be done with it. Neat, huh? But I'm not a scholar on image formats and I don't really know what the rules are about one application respecting the comments that another application writes. And truth be told, I'm not that interested in learning. So, that means we're back to the stage where we've got a bunch of images and a bunch of XML files. Or maybe we've got just one XML file. Either way, we've got this funny bird that needs to be massaged before anything can be done with it. And writing any kind of DTD is going to be a pain because everyone is going to have some kind of random meta-ness they want added to their slideshow. Attentive readers (or David who got to listen to this rant, last night) will have begun to see where this is going :



<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"



          "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd" [



<!ENTITY % Slides SYSTEM 



           "http://www.aaronland.net/src/dtd/mod/xhtml/slide.mod">



%Slides;



]>



By redefining the XHTML %Block; and %Flow; entities, you can create a flexible slideshow format that is both XML fit for munging/transforming and HTML for easy viewing :



<!ELEMENT abstract (p*)>



<!ATTLIST abstract id    ID    #REQUIRED



               class CDATA #IMPLIED



                   style CDATA #IMPLIED



           title CDATA #FIXED "Abstract">







<!ELEMENT slide (meta*,a)>



<!ATTLIST slide  sid    ID    #REQUIRED



             class CDATA #IMPLIED



                 style CDATA #IMPLIED>







<!ENTITY % Block "(abstract,ul)">



<!ENTITY % Flow "(slide)">



The ul (yeah yeah, it should probably be an ordered list...) element can only contain li elements. li elements are defined with the %Flow; parameter entity which means you can redefine your XHTML document to validate as a single list, that contains one or more items. Each item contains a "slide" which consists of zero or more meta tags (remember them?) and a link. If all your fancy pants server tools are broken you're still left with a list of named images that link to actual images. Not great but better than than an XML document rendered as a collapsible outline. So far, so good. But wait! There's more :



  <Directory /path/to/image/directory>



   DirectoryIndex       index.html







   SetHandler   perl-script



   PerlHandler  Apache::ImageViewer



   PerlSetVar   ScaleSmall      25%



   PerlSetVar   ScaleMedium     50%



   PerlSetVar   ScaleLarge      75%



   PerlSetVar   ScaleThumb      x50







   <FilesMatch "index\.html$">



    PerlModule            AxKit



    SetHandler            perl-script







    AxProvider            Apache::AxKit::Provider::Filter



    AxAddStyleMap         text/xsl        Apache::AxKit::Language::LibXSLT



    AxAddProcessor        text/xsl        /site/xsl/slides/slide-tools.xsl



    AxCacheDir            /usr/local/www/htcache







    AxDebugLevel          0



    AxStackTrace          Off



    AxLogDeclines         Off



    AxNoCache             Off







    PerlHandler          AxKit



   </FilesMatch>



  </Directory>



And while the example cited is mod_perl specific, there isn't much to prevent it from being implemented in whatever environment suits your fancy. All you need is a widget that can speak to ImageMagick and an XSLT engine that can suck in CGI parameters : sid and scale . Those are the keys used to 1) tell the stylesheet whether or not to render an image or an index and 2) tell the image widget which image to display and how big it should be . The next step is to write an XSLT stlyesheet to convert the XHTML described above in to an AxPoint document. download : slide-tools 0.1

Bernard F. Reilly, Jr. : What the Cultural Sector Can Learn from Enron

"Artistic and cultural products are no longer objects, like books, paintings, sculpture, with the degree of immanence that the physics of the natural world imparts; nor are they discrete, self-contained events in time, like musical performances, dance performances, and so forth. They will not stand alone, but depend on the presence of a network of activities, relationships and contingencies, that must be maintained."

In Québec, it is called a "positive obligation"

under either the Civil code or the Charter of Rights (I have sent my little lawyer friend off to find out.) There is, however, a distinction to be made between whether or not the house is burning down or burning down with people inside. If the former there might be some grounds for bringing a suit on the grounds of negligence but apparently it is difficult to convict a person based solely on "acts of ommission". But, if the latter and you didn't call 911 and the person dies then you can be sued for having not fulfilled a civic responsibility. This was enforced a few years back when a driver neglected to provide any kind of assistance for persons stranded on the side of the road and they subsequently died of exposure. Equally important is the provision that says if you do come to the aid of a person and something bad, but unintentional, happens in the process you, personally, are immune from further suit. This is refered to as the "Good Samaritan" clause; something that apparently the American legal system overlooked much to the delight of its practitioners.

Alex Russell : netWindows

"has about as much to do with windows as a nail factory has with a house: one might help you build the other, but it's mere coincidence that a house got built and not a desk. At it's core, netWindows is a DHTML framework for component and code reuse. What does that mean from an applied standpoint? One of neater uses of this framework is to provide a way to create and use DHTML "widgets". Widgets need not be "windows" or "menus", but can include almost any part of a design that calls for reuse, abstraction, or data representation. In this way, netWindows can function as a display layer for web applications, letting them act more like applications and less like web pages. ... It's also modular to a fault, meaning that if you don't need a part of the system, it doesn't get sent down the wire." The "windows" widget would be useful for things like comments or threaded discussions, but I wonder if it would be effective (read:not annoying) for displaying remote links in a weblog context...

Tamara Munzner and Paul Burchard : Visualizing the Structure of the World Wide Web in 3D Hyperbolic Space

"We visualize the structure of sections of the World Wide Web by constructing graphical representations in 3D hyperbolic space. The felicitous property that hyperbolic space has ``more room'' than Euclidean space allows more information to be seen amid less clutter, and motion by hyperbolic isometries provides for mathematically elegant navigation."

developerWorks : Reading and writing Excel files with Perl

I can say, from experience, that the Spreadsheet::* modules are a wonk's best friend if you work in a Normal Office. I am not particularly well suited to the Normal Office enviroment and have actively worked to avoid it. Last year, though, it came to pass and, on my first day, I was given a quick glimpse of what was to come. I went to a meeting to discuss the UI for a website. The site was frames-based and after being made to understand that it was too late to change, I piped up and said, "Well, we atleast need a print button to spawn a new window for the main frame." Not exactly rocket science, eh?. The response to the inevitable desire of Joe User to create a hard-copy of a webpage? Oh, we can just email them a Word document. Only later did I come to understand the strange and twisted relationship people have with their spreadsheet software... see also : The Perl Journal on Spreadsheet::WriteExcel and Integrating Perl into Microsoft Office Innards

Leah McClaren : "But what else could Bush say?

What else could people do but pray? The frustration the young New Yorker felt was not with the President's sentiment, but with the cheap, canned feeling of déjà vu it evoked. The sense that we had been here many times before when, in fact, we had not."

The North Atlantic Treaty, Article 5 : "The Parties agree that an armed attack against one

or more of them in Europe or North America shall be considered an attack against them all and consequently they agree that, if such an armed attack occurs, each of them, in exercise of the right of individual or collective self-defence recognised by Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations, will assist the Party or Parties so attacked by taking forthwith, individually and in concert with the other Parties, such action as it deems necessary, including the use of armed force, to restore and maintain the security of the North Atlantic area." google cache Gah! It has not been invoked yet, but Dubya::ColinPowell is on television floating the idea which ought to be enough to make for another sleepless night...

Gregor N. Purdy : A Commentary on the XML-RPC Specification and Definition of XPC Version 0.1

"These comments are stylistic in nature, and it is well recognized by the author that style in program and protocol design are very personal. This commentary will, however, point out the rationale of the proposed changes to the specification's design."

National Post : "Taped to the walls and halls of Callahan's home

are letters, both those in praise of his work and the sharply critical. One is from Judge Lance Ito, thanking Callahan for the books he sent after the cartoonist heard the judge ask during the O.J. Simpson trial: 'Why do I feel like I'm in the middle of a Callahan cartoon?'" In many ways, this sort of thing can be the highest honour for a cartoonist. It is also, though not exactly the same, the kind of behaviour that finally drove Ralph Steadman from political cartooning. When the subjects of your work start calling, wanting the originals as a kind of trophy you have to wonder if something isn't quite working.
