Wow. This is taking more or a soap opera turn lately.

yeah, the fact that he posted it to live journal in October is kind of meaningless given that you can edit an entry after the fact.

Very interesting! Nice detective work Thomas.
- Jeff P. Henderson
So looking through Edward's photo stream on Flickr, I see photos that were more than likely not shot by him. For instance http://www.flickr.com/photos... or http://www.flickr.com/photos... The second even says it's an AP photo in the description. All are listed with all rights reserved Copyright. Doesn't this violate Flickr's TOS?

Just posted this update to my blog: Update: I received a reply back this morning from Przydzial to my Facebook message asking him if he filed the DMCA takedown notice against Firas and if he is claiming ownership to the Obama image.

Update #2: I just received back a second reply facebook mail to my reasking Edward the question as to whether or not he filed this DMCA takedown notice and this is what he replied:"i'm finding you have already posted a blog about me, made your assumptions and printed all type of trash that has been deemed harassment. the links to...

Well, so either Edward or Firas is lying. Based on all of the information I have read, it is not clear who is the actual author of the image. I wonder if we will ever find out?

Giant Coconut Crab (birgus latro) - http://www.magazine13.com/giant-c...
Kim, Alex, amygeek and 51 other people liked this
"The coconut crab, Birgus latro, is the largest land-living arthropod in the world, and is probably at the upper limit of how big terrestrial animals with exoskeletons can become in today’s atmosphere. The species inhabits the coastal forest regions of many Indo-Pacific islands, although localized extinction has occurred where the crab is sympatric with man. Generally nocturnal, they remain hidden during the day and emerge only on some nights to forage. Their body is divided into four regions; the cephalic lobe, forepart, trunk, and opisthosoma. It is a highly apomorphic hermit crab and is known for its ability to crack coconuts with its strong pincers to eat the contents. It is the only species of the genus Birgus."

They are VERY good to eat, one of my favorite foods from our sailing trip. The only problem is I'm a lobster fan myself so I went straight for the tail. It is filled with a brown goo I called butt butter.. it tastes like smokey peanut butter mixed with saltwater. The claws are fantastic.. better than lobster!! You have to be VERY careful they can snap your fingers off . You better be careful not to overfeed those cure little hermit crabs you all have.. cause that is what you will get!!

I wonder how much coconut flavour the meat has.
- Andrew C (✓)
Not much but it does soften the meat. It's the best darn arthropod meat I have ever tasted. hmm first time I've ever used arthropod and meat in the same sentence. When you kill them (machete into the soft under belly) nothing but coconut liquid comes out (the clear stuff not the milk). Anyone ever tried a coconut apple (the foam that forms inside after a coconut starts to sprout)? yumm!

I got the new Curve 8900. I did mess around with the Bold 9000 quite a bit, but felt it was too bulky and heavy despite the slightly more lenient keyboard. I think when the Tour comes out, I'll like that more, but it wasn't an option for now, so I went with what I could take.
- Mike Nayyar
I have to say, typing on the Curve, and then immediately typing on the iPhone, the biggest difference was the autocorrection. The iPhone has become a breeze to use since I know it will likely (>70%) know the word I meant.
- Mike Nayyar
That is the one thing that I can't stand about BB, is the apps. They have the crappiest app store ever. When I got Touch, I couldn't believe all the apps. I instantly wanted an iPhone.

That's why, in my opinion, iPhone is better. Email is the killer app for Blackberry, apps for iPhone. Apps > Email

I have the 8900 Curve, which I use when I'm away from the house, and the iPod Touch for when I really don't want to get back in front of the growing behemoth that is my workstation. Love both, but I NEED that QWERTY. 8900 rules it.

Why does CutePDF have such horrible quality when it does the same thing as printing to PS and running ps2pdf of the results? #fail
And that's exactly what it does, too! It even includes its own install of GhostScript (which is what powers ps2pdf).

CutePDF is a free printer driver for Windows which allows for printing as PDF. All CutePDF does itself, though, is create a PostScript file which it pipes to GhostScript.
