Artificial Intelligence is everywhere and being discussed by everyone it seems. But, what is AI? By definition, it is a field of computer science that is focusing on creating intelligence systems; AI is making computers capable of performing tasks that require human intelligence. We have been using computers for decades, but the introduction of AI […]

Das Geschäft mit Hanfstecklingen wächst rasant. Jeder vierte Kunde in Growshops ist älter als 60 Jahre. In Österreich ist der Anbau von Hanfpflanzen gesetzlich verboten, soweit er der Suchtmittelgewinnung dient. Dennoch wächst das Geschäft mit Stecklingen kontinuierlich an. Rund 70 bis 80 Grow- und Headshops verkaufen österreichweit Hanfstecklinge, Cannabisprodukte und Anbauzubehör. Genaue Zahlen liegen der Wirtschaftskammer Österreich nicht vor. Die Geschäfte unterliegen nämlich keiner einzelnen Handelssparte, sondern sind unter anderem als Lebensmittel- und Textilhandel oder Floristen gemeldet.

Das „stille Örtchen“ stillt eines der dringendsten Bedürfnisse der Menschheit. Wie sich Toiletten entwickelt haben, erzählt der Historiker und Autor Arnaud Goumand in einem neuen Buch: von der römischen Gemeinschaftstoilette, in der wohl das Latrinengerücht seinen Ursprung nahm, über den Leibstuhl, auf dem Ludwig XIII. sogar öffentlich thronte, bis zum Hightech-Pissoir, an dem angeblich auch große Geschäfte angebahnt werden.

Am Salzburger Landesgericht wurden am Montag drei Pensionisten und eine 48-jährige Frau wegen der Herstellung und des Verkaufs von Suchtgift verurteilt. Sie sollen zwei Hanfplantagen betrieben haben. Die zwei Hauptangeklagten bekamen je dreieinhalb Jahre Haft, ein dritter ein Jahr.

Eine serbisch-bosnische Tätergruppe soll zwei Cannabis-Indoor-Plantagen in den Bezirken Gänserndorf und Baden mit mehr als 1.400 Cannabispflanzen betrieben haben. Die Polizei konnte zwölf Personen als mutmaßliche Betreiber ausforschen.

Immobilienspekulation als Kunstaktion: Der Künstler "donhofer." versteigerte am Dienstag vor der Wiener Signa-Zentrale 54 Kloschüsseln.Am Dienstag, den 23. Jänner versteigerte "donhofer." Toilettenmuscheln vor der Signa-Zentrale auf der Freyung. Insgesamt 54 "Heisln" standen zur Auswahl, allesamt benannt nach Bauten und Subunternehmen der Signa Holding: vom "Galeria Heisl" übers "Elb Heisl" bis zum "Traum Heisl". "Das große Geschäft" heißt die Aktion, die anhand der im Dialekt auffallenden Begriffsähnlichkeit "Heisl" und "Haus" die Immobilienspekulationen des Konzerns aufs Korn nimmt.

Do you feel as though you're in a rut? Does nothing feel engaging or entertaining? When you want to make sure you're still in the right direction and you don't want to settle for a mundane life, you'll discover that you need to start challenging yourself. When you take on a challenge head first, you're forcing yourself to grow. When your self-esteem needs a boost, challenging yourself can help you see yourself in a new light.

I dreaded graduating college. After a rough start where I got a 1.0 GPA and landed on academic probation, I straightened things out. It took five years and one summer session (a Spanish class in a room with no A/C in the hot Maryland summer), but I finished what I started on May 20, 1993. […]

Hi All! I just got through making a widget that counts down the days, hours, minutes, and seconds until the release of Systm. This is a Konfabulator only widget.

*Note: The image below will not update as it is a screenshot. The real widget updates every second.


What is a widget? Its a small program usualy written in HTML and Javascript that is designed to do a simple task such as display the weather, a calender, to-do lists, clocks, etc. In order to work they need to be run in a program like Konfabulator or Dashboard.

UPDATE!
You can now download the widget here. Its set up on the Konfabulator widget gallery.

ou'll need to download Konfabulator to run it. I'm going to make a Dashboard version soon for all you Tiger users out there.

This is my 1st attempt at a widget, so any feedback will be most welcome.

Do you find it hard to find new music artists to fit your taste? Well, now you can let Pandora do the searching for you. Just type in your favorite band or song and let Pandora tell you other artists that are similar. It uses its Music Genome Project Database of more than 10,000 artists. It even plays full length songs for you, not those little 30 sec clips.



This service is similar to Yahoo's Launchcast, however instead of one big radio station, you make separate playlists based on different generes, or tastes. Also Pandora works in Firefox, Launchcast does not.

Happy Listening

Catherine Flanagan is trying to get her son David back after he was taken by his father and family.

Let's start w/a basic image tag: <IMG SRC="image.gif" ALT="text" WIDTH="specified in pixels" HEIGHT="ditto">.

Now, let's break down these attributes, one by one.

SRC-This is the source/url of your image file.

ALT-This is text that will be seen when you mouse over the image. Also, if some of your viewers have a TEXT ONLY Browser, they'll be able to see the text you wrote. So, it's probably a good idea to be somewhat descriptive.

WIDTH/HEIGHT (specified in pixels)-By specifying the width & height of your image, the browser makes it load faster, which makes, happy visitors! If you don't know the pixel width & height of your image, you can find out by using an Image Editor/Maker. For the sake of explanation, I'll use Photoshop. Click on the Image menu, then click Image Size. When the Image Size dialog box comes up, DON'T CHANGE ANYTHING! Just take note of the height & width, write them down if you need to.

Now, let's make Image Links

To begin, we need a basic link. If you dont know how to make a link, please refer to the links tutorial. Now here's our link: <A HREF="page.html"></A>.

Instead of putting text between the <A></A> tags like we would normally do, we put an image tag. If you'd like, you can refer back to that tutorial.

Here's how it'll look:
<A HREF="page.html"><IMG SRC="image.gif" WIDTH="specifiedinpixels" HEIGHT="ditto" ALT="description" BORDER="0"></A>

That's It, I hope this has been helpful!

Do you like hearing tech news? A great podcast that I really like is Geek News Central. You can grab the feed here.

One of my pet peaves about "new blogger" is the
lack of an updated, compatible blogger button. Well,
I think I've found a solution that works for me.

Did you know that when you click "New Post" & go
to the "New Post" page that the url of this page is
static, instead of dynamic? In other words, it never
changes.

Included in this "New Post" url is your unique blog id #.
For Example, my blog id # is 8755143929966545114. The
url is http://www2.blogger.com/post-create.g? with a blog
id # appended to it.

For Example, mine would look like this:
http://www2.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=8755143929966545114
This link with your own blog id will always work.
If you're not already signed in, it'll have you sign in,
but afterwards it'll still take you directly to your blog's
"New Post" page. Nifty, Huh!
