"You know what really bothers me is when somebody tells you that their cell phone is also a camera. I just hate that. What’s wrong with having something that’s just what it is and being happy about it? It makes me want to say to them… “My sunglasses are also a tricycle.” "

Je bibliotheek in LibraryThing

2010-05-25T16:27:00.001+02:00

ISBN nummers is dubbelop. de N staat voor nummer.

MAAR, het is zeder geen slecht idee om op onze website aan te geven welke boeken we nieuw in de collectie hebben!

#18 Catalogiseer je boekenkast met LibraryThing

2010-05-25T16:24:00.002+02:00

#15 Microbloggen met Twitter

2010-05-25T16:07:00.002+02:00

Twitteren is voor geetjes (no offence) en voor assistenten van aandachthunkerende politici. wel eens gekeken hoeveel mensen echt twittert? minder dat die zich aanmelden en na 2 postjes alweer kappen. omdat het een populariteitswedstrijd is. en bovenal SAAI.

u kunt mij trouwens vinden onder http://twitter.com/Positieveonrust. al post ik niet actief, t is gekoppeld aan een blog. t is allemaal maar schijn natuurlijk.

#14 Spelen in de zandbak van de 23-Archiefdingen wiki

2010-05-25T16:04:00.002+02:00

'The email/username or password was not correct' zeggen ze bij de 23-Archiefdingen wiki. dan heb ik ook geen zin meer.

wat een rare oefening uberhaupt. ik zeg net bij #13 dat ik er geen gat inzie en daarna mag ik er mee gaan oefenen. voorstel voor # 24: logisch denken

#13 Ontdek wiki’s en hoe archieven ze kunnen toepassen

2010-05-25T15:48:00.002+02:00

de enige wiki's die ik gebruik zijn de engelse, en soms nederlandse, wikipedia en de camerapedia. Verder vindt ik wikis voor je bedrijf gebruiken een beetje onzin. als we dat bij het archief zouden doen zou je altijd incompleet zijn. en je kan er bijna alles aan koppelen. archief->nederland->de wereld. waarom het wiel uitvinden? beter een ingang over het gas in de nlse wiki dan andersom.

#11 Schrijf een posting over jouw visie op Web 2.0

2010-05-25T14:08:00.003+02:00

ik denk dat ook al maken we op onze website meer zaken op nieuwe manieren toegankelijk, dat dit niet noodzakelijk een ander publiek zal trekken. ik denk dat die nieuwe dingen ook alleen maar nuttig zijn als ze het makkelijker maken voor de bezoeker. (Na deze cursus heb ik bwvs weer een a4tje vol met wachtwoorden, laten ze daar maar eens iets op verzinnen!) Anders gezegd: de apotheek kan wel lid worden van twitter maar daar wordt je aspirine niet hip van. Als je niet van lezen houdt, ga je ook niet de website van een bibliotheek bezoeken. we kunnen mensen niet dwingen geinteresseerd te zijn in de geschiedenis van hun familie of schiedam. daarom denk ik dat we er bij het GAS beter aan doen gewoon interessante verhalen in de krant te zetten, en online, zodat mensen dit zelf kunnen ontdekken.

2010-05-10T16:46:00.003+02:00

Gadgets en dingen als color picker enzo, het is mijn ervaring dat je dat als je net met iets begint 1 keer probeerd en later nooit nooit meer. k ben zelden iets tegengekomen waar ik wat aan had. Er zijn wel wat leuke dingen als je al lid bent van flickr en een beetje een verzameling aan foto's hebt.

rechten
Foto's van de baby zet ik ook op mn flickr account, maar dan zo dat alleen 'vrienden'
of 'familie' ze kunnen zien. want ook al zet je er in lettertype 34 onder dat er copyright op zit, er is een gouden regel; als je het op internet zet ben je het kwijt.

Een ander gezicht voor je Blogger blog

2010-05-10T16:38:00.002+02:00

Ik heb de sites bekeken voor andere Blogger opmaakjes. Dat valt een beetje tegen. Ik ben eigenlijk wel tevreden met de huidige opmaak. It's classy and classic.

Bovendien ben ik verwend met Tumblr waar ik een blog heb. Bij Tumblr is zo'n enorm groot aanbod van enthousiastelingen die zelf templates (bij Tumblr heten ze 'Themes')maken dat je echt mooie kan uitzoeken.

#6 Ontdek Flickr.

2010-05-10T11:39:00.004+02:00

Sinds augustus 2006 zit ik al met dit account op Flickr. ook al 'pro' sinds een tijdje. da's relaxed want dan kun je meer sets aanmaken. Over New York bijvoorbeeld.

Voor het Gemeentearchief hebben we ook een account aangemaakt, daar zijn we nu nog mee aan het experimenteren. Flickr is leuk. Ik kan er wel een opstel over schrijven. Maar dat ga ik hier en nu niet doen.

2010-04-23T16:49:00.003+02:00

misschien ligt het aan de pc hier, maar dat hele Blogger lijkt me stukken trager dan een paar jaar geleden. Na zo'n dag wachten tot ie genegen is iets up te loaden heb ik 's avonds geen zin meer in kompjuuter gerelateerde zaken.

eens kijken of ik vanavond weer eens foto's kan uitvergroten. lekker met je klauwen in de chemicalien!

#4 Maak je leven eenvoudiger met RSS

2010-04-23T15:40:00.005+02:00

ik neem terug wat ik heb gezegd over Netvibes. ik snap er niks van. erg onduidelijke en rommelige opzet.

ik probeer het nu met iGoogle. t uploaden van een normaler plaatje als header is gelukt, net als het weggooien van overbodige gadgets (wat moet ik met sport of met sudoku's? er is toch genoeg te ontdekken op internet?)
ik heb bij een paar blogs Follow this Feed of RSS aangeklikt maar waar kan ik dat dan weer terugvinden? t zit allemaal overbodig ingewikkeld in elkaar is mijn inpressie.

#4 Maak je leven eenvoudiger met RSS

2010-04-20T16:09:00.003+02:00

Maak je leven eenvoudiger door nog meer programma's te kiezen om je leven makkelijker te maken door nog meer wachtwoorden te moeten onthouden door nog meer onderwerpen te gaan volgen door nog meer tijd te moeten verdelen door interactief bezig te zijn door te mailen naar je collega aan het andere bureau of ze nog koffie wil door te sms'en bij het koffie-automaat of ze nou wel of geen zoetje wou door er later over te twitteren of meer mensen dat meemaken door de resultaten daarvan in een blogpost te verwerken door opeens een trent te zetten en een hype te creeren door overal gevraagd te worden voor reacties door als deskundige bekend te worden door er een boek over te schrijven door te beseffen dat leven op Hawaï toch beter is door dáár weer een boek over te schrijven en daarna lekker door te zakken.

hoedanook:
best leuk dat netvibes. (lijkt me een goed alternatief voor igoogle) helemaal aan te passen naar je eigen wensen. Ik blog meer zodra de site wat minder slooooom is.

yesterday was a good one.
stopped work early & went to rotterdam with the missus.
took some pictures that might turn out right.
found a great, great little book: Nobody living can ever make me turn back (from Denver to Chicago on the wild ride, 2006)by photographer Ed Templeton.

This kind of stuff allways makes me think what would have happened if i hadnt given away that skateboard i found when i was 7.
probably not much.
We saw There Will be Blood in the Cinerama - the last real cinema instead of a movie-factory and had a great meal at Hotel Bazar.
The dishes on the menu are mainly from North Africa and the Middle East and reasonably priced.

Think again. I'm about to become your worst nightmare. 'Cause I ain't ever going away. Not until you set the record straight, and apologize to your viewers. "The Most Trusted Name in News?" I think it's safe to say you can retire that slogan.

You have an occasional segment called "Keeping Them Honest." But who keeps you honest? After what the public saw with your report on "Sicko," and how many inaccuracies that report contained, how can anyone believe anything you say on your network? In the old days, before the Internet, you could get away with it. Your victims had no way to set the record straight, to show the viewers how you had misrepresented the truth. But now, we can post the truth -- and back it up with evidence and facts -- on the web, for all to see. And boy, judging from the mail both you and I have been receiving, the evidence I have posted on my site about your "Sicko" piece has led millions now to question your honesty.

Christopher Walken in russian

Baptism
Originally uploaded by Blinky Pitz

this is what you get if you translate Christopher Walken from the Russian Esquire (http://www.esquire.ru/articles/18/wil/walken/). madness.

Actor, 63 years, New York

As a rule, 4 I do not play people, which cause confidence.

When I was dancer, I worked in the night club with Monica van vooren, singer. We with two fellows danced, and she sang. At the end of the show she introduced us, and once at night she said: "You know, Ronni (Present Name Of uokena — Ronald. — Esquire), I will call you kristofer ". I answered: "certainly, as you want". Now everyone calls me kristofer, except wife and brothers.

People consider me strange. In me the truth is many strangenesses as in any, who from five years in show business. All my formation, entire my experience, all my acquaintances, everything, with whom I grew, everything that I know, — everything of show business. 4 in it it always lived. Certainly, 4 strange. 4 from another planet.

I played many villains. Possibly because younger than its years appeared. Now perhaps I will play good children. I would want to obtain the role of father with the dog. To have house and children, and so that they would ask: "Popes, that to me to make?", and 4 it would answer: "you must enter correctly".

My weakness as director was in the fact that when me they asked, that to make, I always spoke: "make that you want". It seems me, director must be a little General. But General me would leave terrible.

One time 4 nearly was removed in To skorseze. It several times attempted to make the "last temptation of Christ". At some moment I had to play Iisusa. I spent with it certain time, but then studio did not allow it to remove, and they put off project to ten years.

With any possibility I scrutinize children's figures. Such impression, that among them there are no poor. This is always terribly interesting.

Before to read scenario, I emphasize the name of my character, the stage directions, which are concerned the circumstances of action, everything that "he speaks in it with cold". Then I re-read it again and again, until I run into the phrase, which on some it could say to reason in the life. This is the catch, with the aid of which I understand its hero. From this point on, everything goes by itself.

Wages in the film business do not yield to explanation. Thus far to me were not carried out thirty five, 4 never earned in yr of eleven thousand dollars. But 4 by that time he was the actor already of twenty years.

When television appeared, my parents took a seat to it. They purchased the largest television set. The spectres from those years sometimes come to me: for example, small monkey on the motorcycles. There were very famous monkey, Jay Fred Of mags, it has its own motorcycle, it was star!

I worked as child in the particular circus. Owner they called Kerol Jacobs. He wanted with it in the circus number its son, dressed in exactly the same manner to participate . But it not had son, and it placed on the number me. To me they did not pay wage, I worked there, because this was interestingly.

I have theory about the words. There are thousands of methods to say "transmit to me salt". This can mean "in me it is insufficiently salted food" or "I I love you". But can "4 very to you ashes" — this list can be for long continued. Words — these are the small bombs, in which the mass of energy.

When I was boy, there was this rule: if you do not know how to float, it is necessary to throw you into the water and you will float. It was necessary to catch me from the pond. 4 , until now, I do not know how to float.

When I disappear — 4 in Venice. I lived there the pair of months, it learned streets, 4 even I know, where the there Chinese restaurants. I found the place, where gondoliers have dinner. Problem in the fact that, after arriving into Italy, I can collect six kilograms in one week. This is bad for the actor. To actors it is better to drive there, where the food is a little bit worse.

In the cinema the actor corresponds to subject. And so it is understandable that 4 poor fellow, — to me very it is not necessary to be for poor. Everything that I make, already badly. I come to the work, I tell my words and the ides home. I think, real villains make in exactly the same manner . They, probably have families.

Once I was in the small city, the dusty hilly town in the south of Italy, and it met woman with the child. To it there were, probably about eight. It looked always at me, and then he said: "max!" — keeping in mind Max Schrek from "betmena". Here to you and the force of cinematography.

Most complex in the life of actor — always to remain in sight . To be lost in show business is too easy.

I know that I appear very strangely. 4 and in the childhood it was similar — you will look photographs. But 4 I do not feel itself strange. Although to play simple fellow from your street to me is difficult. Camera converts strangeness into the villainy.

4 in general I do not love violence. Only in the very good films. But by properly strange me seems the society, in which the adolescents have automatic weapon, and serial killers quietly travel along the superhighways.

In the theater I played many enormous roles — of Hamlet three times, Romeo three times, and, it is possible to say, played they badly. I depicted all these gloomy Shakespearean heroes, but I consider that me one ought not to have made this.

People focus attention on actors, because actors play well, but not because they know, about which they speak. It is necessary to follow its words. In order to play well, it is not necessary to be for clever, it suffices to be a good actor.

4 it is dressed in the black, because this is practical. You appear more thinly, you appear clean, even if this in reality not then. Asiatics knew this of thousands years.

For me it is necessary to read tabloidy. From where otherwise I did learn, which does occur, that who a coma did make, who parts and concurs again? Really to you it is uninteresting about the recently open rolls of dead sea? Perhaps this is not important? For me — very.

In some sense to write memoirs, if you do not plan the multivolume labor, this as to sign to yourselves death certificate .

Directly now 4 with the pleasure looked cinema about zombi. Films about zombi are interesting because it is possible to make them with any budget. It is possible to remove them free of charge, while it is possible to spend the heap of money, and nevertheless this there will be film about zombi.

I do not have computer, i do not have cell phone and there are no wrist it is hour.

Good in the actors was tails. Tail is very expressive. It is immediately evidently on the cat, if it is angered or frightened, because it raspushayet tail. If me it was necessary to play fright, to me sufficient it would be to scold tail. If in the actors would be tails, this changed everything.

When there was Caribbean crisis, in me was "Volkswagen", and once I sat in it with the girl. We listened to radio, and this was similarly to the end of the light. Bombs were moved, and all this seemed very realistic. To me it was near the eighteen years.

Professional dancers never walk to the dances. This contradicts their religion.

When left "hunter to the deer", there were communications in the newspapers about the people, which play into the Russian tape-measure. Pridurki exist everywhere, and 4 I do not think that the cinema has to this some relation. Think about the peace, in which we live. People, whose portion in the weapons business of 5-10 percent, they become multi-millionaires. But then they speak about the responsibility of cinematography. Cinema does not have this value.

The older I become, the greater the confidence, that everything in our life — from the success. And from the punctuality. If we come in time, everything goes well.

Once I walked to the psychiatrist, but it was such strange, that I immediately left. To me did not be required aid, but someone said to me to go and to have a talk with it. I said By "o'key" and I — went it solved, that this it needs aid. It assumed in its apartment, and they called it to the telephone. For the minute through the door I saw its kitchen, it entire was in the dirty dishes. It was, obviously, it is very slovenly, and I solved: you cannot advise me as to live, if you do not manage the dirty dishes. But me greatly it is desirable to play psychiatrist. In me it came out well.

People ask me: "where you drive to rest?" But 4 anywhere not to ezzhu. This — cinema picture, for the surveys usually selects picturesque places. I visited places, where never it went into the leave. Never. I was in the jungle, at the mountain peak. I was removed in the place in Hawaii, where made the "park of Jurassic period", in the preserve. This as to return to the times of the creation of peace, you will not believe, that on the earth there are such places.

My dear occupation — to sit house with the scenario and to teach role. 4 actors, i do not have hobby, there are no children, and 4 I do not love to travel.

On the surveys I always repeat one drawing. For this it is necessary to arise early in the morning, to go into the grimirovochnyy trailer, and thus far beautician works at your face, to be shut by very sad. Sooner or later it will ask: "which did happen? You appear depressed today ". I speak: "everything in the order". Then she speaks: "well nevertheless, which happened?" And I answer: "today i have birthday, and to me it is sad, since I will conduct it in the solitude and without the cake". But then I add: "only no one you tell!" To the lunch all already in the course, and bring cake — this very ridiculously.

4 I cannot walkas usual person. No one, who dealt with dances, cannot. Although in women this is less noticeably.

Men vroeg mij opnieuw een stukje te schrijven voor het personeelsblad. iets over dat mijn vorige bijdrage ‘niet duidelijk was’. Onzin natuurlijk.
Nou had ik helemaal geen zin in een bijdrage, dat mag u gerust van me weten. Zo’n flauw ‘éven voorstellen’ stukje waarin Hans van Administratie mag uitleggen dat hij de het hier prima naar z’n zin heeft maar dat hans’s grote passie toch z’n miniatuurmodelbouw project van treinstation Utrecht wat hij bij z’n moeder op zolder heeft gebouwd en waar hij “graag op z’n fluitje blaast”. Waarna collega’s de andere dag bij het koffiezetapparaat zeker zullen zeggen: “Goh Hans, dat wist ik niet joh, dat jij zo’n waanzinnig interessant individu bent!” Lijkt mij onwaarschijnlijk.
Nee, dan zou ik liever van de gelegenheid gebruik maken om te vertellen hoe ik nog voor de toenmalige BVD in Leningrad ( U kent het waarschijnlijk als Sint-Petersburg, maar voor mij zal het altijd Leningrad blijven!) een Frans lid van het Olympisch comité moest ‘ompraten’. Helaas mag ik daar niet verder over uitweiden, maar geláchen dat we hebben met die Russen! Geláchen! Chtob vse byli zdorovy!

All bombing is terrorism
Originally uploaded by Blinky Pitz.

Sunday, November 26th, 2006

Friends,

Tomorrow marks the day that we will have been in Iraq longer than we were in all of World War II.

That's right. We were able to defeat all of Nazi Germany, Mussolini, and the entire Japanese empire in LESS time than it's taken the world's only superpower to secure the road from the airport to downtown Baghdad.

And we haven't even done THAT. After 1,347 days, in the same time it took us to took us to sweep across North Africa, storm the beaches of Italy, conquer the South Pacific, and liberate all of Western Europe, we cannot, after over 3 and 1/2 years, even take over a single highway and protect ourselves from a homemade device of two tin cans placed in a pothole. No wonder the cab fare from the airport into Baghdad is now running around $35,000 for the 25-minute ride. And that doesn't even include a friggin' helmet.

Is this utter failure the fault of our troops? Hardly. That's because no amount of troops or choppers or democracy shot out of the barrel of a gun is ever going to "win" the war in Iraq. It is a lost war, lost because it never had a right to be won, lost because it was started by men who have never been to war, men who hide behind others sent to fight and die.

Let's listen to what the Iraqi people are saying, according to a recent poll conducted by the University of Maryland:

** 71% of all Iraqis now want the U.S. out of Iraq.

** 61% of all Iraqis SUPPORT insurgent attacks on U.S. troops.

Yes, the vast majority of Iraqi citizens believe that our soldiers should be killed and maimed! So what the hell are we still doing there? Talk about not getting the hint.

There are many ways to liberate a country. Usually the residents of that country rise up and liberate themselves. That's how we did it. You can also do it through nonviolent, mass civil disobedience. That's how India did it. You can get the world to boycott a regime until they are so ostracized they capitulate. That's how South Africa did it. Or you can just wait them out and, sooner or later, the king's legions simply leave (sometimes just because they're too cold). That's how Canada did it.

The one way that DOESN'T work is to invade a country and tell the people, "We are here to liberate you!" -- when they have done NOTHING to liberate themselves. Where were all the suicide bombers when Saddam was oppressing them? Where were the insurgents planting bombs along the roadside as the evildoer Saddam's convoy passed them by? I guess ol' Saddam was a cruel despot -- but not cruel enough for thousands to risk their necks. "Oh no, Mike, they couldn't do that! Saddam would have had them killed!" Really? You don't think King George had any of the colonial insurgents killed? You don't think Patrick Henry or Tom Paine were afraid? That didn't stop them. When tens of thousands aren't willing to shed their own blood to remove a dictator, that should be the first clue that they aren't going to be willing participants when you decide you're going to do the liberating for them.

A country can HELP another people overthrow a tyrant (that's what the French did for us in our revolution), but after you help them, you leave. Immediately. The French didn't stay and tell us how to set up our government. They didn't say, "we're not leaving because we want your natural resources." They left us to our own devices and it took us six years before we had an election. And then we had a bloody civil war. That's what happens, and history is full of these examples. The French didn't say, "Oh, we better stay in America, otherwise they're going to kill each other over that slavery issue!"

The only way a war of liberation has a chance of succeeding is if the oppressed people being liberated have their own citizens behind them -- and a group of Washingtons, Jeffersons, Franklins, Ghandis and Mandellas leading them. Where are these beacons of liberty in Iraq? This is a joke and it's been a joke since the beginning. Yes, the joke's been on us, but with 655,000 Iraqis now dead as a result of our invasion (source: Johns Hopkins University), I guess the cruel joke is on them. At least they've been liberated, permanently.

So I don't want to hear another word about sending more troops (wake up, America, John McCain is bonkers), or "redeploying" them, or waiting four months to begin the "phase-out." There is only one solution and it is this: Leave. Now. Start tonight. Get out of there as fast as we can. As much as people of good heart and conscience don't want to believe this, as much as it kills us to accept defeat, there is nothing we can do to undo the damage we have done. What's happened has happened. If you were to drive drunk down the road and you killed a child, there would be nothing you could do to bring that child back to life. If you invade and destroy a country, plunging it into a civil war, there isn't much you can do 'til the smoke settles and blood is mopped up. Then maybe you can atone for the atrocity you have committed and help the living come back to a better life.

The Soviet Union got out of Afghanistan in 36 weeks. They did so and suffered hardly any losses as they left. They realized the mistake they had made and removed their troops. A civil war ensued. The bad guys won. Later, we overthrew the bad guys and everybody lived happily ever after. See! It all works out in the end!

The responsibility to end this war now falls upon the Democrats. Congress controls the purse strings and the Constitution says only Congress can declare war. Mr. Reid and Ms. Pelosi now hold the power to put an end to this madness. Failure to do so will bring the wrath of the voters. We aren't kidding around, Democrats, and if you don't believe us, just go ahead and continue this war another month. We will fight you harder than we did the Republicans. The opening page of my website has a photo of Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, each made up by a collage of photos of the American soldiers who have died in Bush's War. But it is now about to become the Bush/Democratic Party War unless swift action is taken.

This is what we demand:

1. Bring the troops home now. Not six months from now. NOW. Quit looking for a way to win. We can't win. We've lost. Sometimes you lose. This is one of those times. Be brave and admit it.

2. Apologize to our soldiers and make amends. Tell them we are sorry they were used to fight a war that had NOTHING to do with our national security. We must commit to taking care of them so that they suffer as little as possible. The mentally and physically maimed must get the best care and significant financial compensation. The families of the deceased deserve the biggest apology and they must be taken care of for the rest of their lives.

3. We must atone for the atrocity we have perpetuated on the people of Iraq. There are few evils worse than waging a war based on a lie, invading another country because you want what they have buried under the ground. Now many more will die. Their blood is on our hands, regardless for whom we voted. If you pay taxes, you have contributed to the three billion dollars a week now being spent to drive Iraq into the hellhole it's become. When the civil war is over, we will have to help rebuild Iraq. We can receive no redemption until we have atoned.

In closing, there is one final thing I know. We Americans are better than what has been done in our name. A majority of us were upset and angry after 9/11 and we lost our minds. We didn't think straight and we never looked at a map. Because we are kept stupid through our pathetic education system and our lazy media, we knew nothing of history. We didn't know that WE were the ones funding and arming Saddam for many years, including those when he massacred the Kurds. He was our guy. We didn't know what a Sunni or a Shiite was, never even heard the words. Eighty percent of our young adults (according to National Geographic) were not able to find Iraq on the map. Our leaders played off our stupidity, manipulated us with lies, and scared us to death.

But at our core we are a good people. We may be slow learners, but that "Mission Accomplished" banner struck us as odd, and soon we began to ask some questions. Then we began to get smart. By this past November 7th, we got mad and tried to right our wrongs. The majority now know the truth. The majority now feel a deep sadness and guilt and a hope that somehow we can make make it all right again.

Unfortunately, we can't. So we will accept the consequences of our actions and do our best to be there should the Iraqi people ever dare to seek our help in the future. We ask for their forgiveness.

We demand the Democrats listen to us and get out of Iraq now.

Yours,

Michael Moore
