However, research has shown that once you get slightly above an average I.Q., intelligence and creativity are not related. So you could be a genius and display little creativity or have fairly average intelligence and wield amazing creative powers.

Martha Stewart moment - It's a good thing
- Bwana ☠
No internet radio has not been saved not by a long shot. Once the labels notice that companies are adhering to the new royalty rates and starting to turn a profit, they'll moan and groan and say that they're still not getting enough. It won't be long and they'll be asking for another royalty percentage hike. It'll be a cold day in hell before I let anyone take 25% of my company's profit. I don't care what business I'm in either.

How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bot - O'Reilly Radar - http://radar.oreilly.com/2009...
Ehren Cheung liked this
Bots love to exchange gifts with you, too. Generally, my tweets are relatively long and filled with informative nouns - and bots appreciate my efforts. Every instance when I mention "celebrity" or "baseball" or "journalism" to the world is like giving a tiny gift to a bot that keeps it relevant. And in exchange, the bot ensures that my information automatically gets to a wider audience of people that I don't know yet. Around the clock, bots are selflessly recruiting my next generation of fans. And my love affair with bots is just beginning; because they're inherently unjealous creatures, I can use as many bots as I want, whenever I want, however it pleases me. Brands, on the other hand, always want to be my soulmate, even though they don't often love me back.

that's misleading. most of these jobs still require some vocational training beyond high school and/or an apprenticeship.

All of those require advance learning and in most cases some standardized qualification testing. College in the traditional sense, no. Time and money learning what is needed and passing a test or many, well... yes.

How to Escape a Minefield - wikiHow - http://www.wikihow.com/Escape-...
Ehren Cheung liked this
Unlike the figurative minefields that litter the wastelands of political punditry and business management books, the very real minefields of the world, or rather the very real landmines within them, kill and maim people--as many as 20,000 people in 2005 alone. So the next time you are unlucky enough to read some puffed-up prattle about navigating the minefields of online marketing, remember those people. And if, heaven forbid, you ever find yourself in a real minefield, remember this article.

"London's High Court will on Wednesday hear allegations of dirty tricks in the biggest class action ever brought before the British courts. It arises from the dumping of toxic waste three years ago in Ivory Coast's largest city, Abidjan. In the aftermath, up to 100,000 people fell sick and 16 died. The waste belonged to a multi-national oil trading company, Trafigura. In the wake of the incident, 30,000 Abidjanis are suing them for damages."

70 year-old Buddhist monk Hua Chi has been praying in the same spot at his temple in Tongren, China for over 20 years. His footprints, which are up to 1.2 inches deep in some areas, are the result of performing his prayers up to 3000 times a day. Now that he is 70, he says that he has greatly reduced his quantity of prayers to 1,000 times each day.

I am modifying this post to make it conversational, per Robert Scoble's "my posts are conversational and that's why I get more comments" recommendation. Here it goes...
- Eric @ CSTechcast.com
Pancakes are light and fluffy. That's what makes them successful. It's not syrup. That's already been proven by use of whipped cream and fruit. They cannot be done on anything but a griddle. Waffles are a poor substitute because of their reliance on syrup to fill those tiny squares. You should eat pancakes over waffles. Discuss here:

I must take issue with Eric's comment about the syrup. Pancakes are an excuse for syrup, just like lettuce is an excuse for dressing (preferably 1000 island). Don't hate me, though--I make fabulous waffles.
- Kathy Fitch
(Game face, game face, ... and go) What do you mean Kathy? You can't take issue. Show me proof that syrup has anything to do with a pancake. There are experts who back up my statement. And waffles? Pancakes clearly have the market share!
- Eric @ CSTechcast.com
Yes, blueberries are mandatory!
- LogEx
OK Lindsey, and Kathy. You are obviously syrup fanboys. That's fine, but that doesn't mean they are required to be together. I agree with Kathy's point on salad and dressing, but syrup? Just because it's legend doesn't make it true. (WHAT am I saying?)

- Eric @ CSTechcast.com
Last visit my brother-in-law used almost a whole bottle of real maple syrup for two breakfasts. Next time, he's getting the imitation kind.
- Tom Landini
Lindsey not only spells her name correctly (with an e not an a, just like my daughter), but is clearly an expert in these matters, 'cause she knows that pancakes are *all about* syrup. Alas, though, since you have so graciously conceded the point, I find that there's little left to argue. Bummer. Can we mix it up about butter, maybe? Also, I have to go on record as voting for sausage with pancakes. Bacon is for eggs.
- Kathy Fitch
Kathy, I agree, really, on the preference to sausage as a pancake pairing. On the name front, I like it both ways.
- Eric @ CSTechcast.com
Oh, and butter > margarine.
- Eric @ CSTechcast.com
Kathy, I am inclined to agree with you: sausage with pancakes, bacon with eggs and gravy should be made with bacon drippings (not sausage) for gravy and bicuits) That said, during my years of experimenting with a 14 grain rotation diet, I can tell you that pancakes are not *All about* syrup. Indeed, they are about combinations such as Buckwheat pancakes with fresh blueberry syrup or Teff crepes filled with marscapone cheese topped with strawberry preserves, or Apple Barley-oat fluffy pancakes with....
- Melanie Reed
I would like to stated for the record, that everything is better with bacon. Everything. This is all.

I so very highly approve of all people who can actually cook stuff that I would surely be willing to suffer through an abomination such as blueberry syrup (ahem--it's still syrup, just sayin') in order to get at those buckwheat pancakes. Crepes, I dunno. They seem so fussy, and not at all hearty. However, I would taste test through the pain, oh yes I would.
- Kathy Fitch
Christian's point is well taken. I do think sausage is even better with a side (or would that be a side-side?) of bacon.
- Kathy Fitch
RE: syrup. I agree, syrup is the point of these things. RE: pancakes vs. waffles. Waffles have little cups for the syrup, hence waffles > pancakes. RE: bacon vs. sausage. I vote BOTH. RE: crepes. With chocolate, for dessert. So waffles + bacon + sausage + chocolate crepes for dessert = PERFECTION.

In infrared photography, the film or image sensor used is sensitive to infrared light. Because everyday objects reflect infrared in proportions that differ sharply from that of visible light, the tonal relationships are wildly unexpected. Such near-infrared techniques used in photography give subjects an exotic, antique look. Green vegetation becomes white, whereas human skin becomes pale and ghostly.
