„A commonplace book is what a provident poet cannot subsist without, for this proverbial reason, that "great wits have short memories:" and whereas, on the other hand, poets, being liars by profession, ought to have good memories; to reconcile these, a book of this sort, is in the nature of a supplemental memory, or a record of what occurs remarkable in every day's reading or conversation. There you enter not only your own original thoughts, (which, a hundred to one, are few and insignificant) but such of other men as you think fit to make your own, by entering them there. For, take this for a rule, when an author is in your books, you have the same demand upon him for his wit, as a merchant has for your money, when you are in his.“http://www.digitalmedievalist.com/it/archive/ cat_pedagogy.html#000217 - Cached - Similar Pages

„I started thinking about all of the companies (and people) that I refuse to buy anything from for one reason or another, usually it is because of jerkish practices, poor experiences, and pure hatred. I'm a very vindictive person and unlike most stooges who say "What does it matter? Just forget about it and just buy it, it's not going to have any difference anyhow."“http://www.saigumi.net/archives/2003_10.html - Cached - Similar Pages
„Had great fun tonight with Scott and John at The Stanford Theatre in Palo Alto watching a couple of classic noir films, This Gun for Hire and The Blue Dahlia. In The Blue Dahlia, there is a scene where a woman is found dead, and the shot of the pathway and the approach to the house is amazingly (eerily so) similar to David Lynch's Mulholland Drive. For those of you who've seen the movie and still have questions (I expect many of you to), Salon.com's guide is top-notch.“http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/stephend/archives/ 2003_01.html - Cached - Similar Pages

„Yet the RIAA, confronted with technological challenges that have been commonplace since the invention of the player piano, refuses to acknowledge that cost might have something to do with their declining performance in the face of these challenges. Rather than exploring new business models, it's all about modifying law and regulations within the industry, and calling for dramatic changes in industries outside of their traditional purview - computer technology.“http://www.mcdevzone.com/weblog/archives/ 2002_07.html - Cached - Similar Pages

„The Region Code is usually specified on the back of the individual DVD packages, either with a Regional Coding logo of a globe with the region number superimposed over it, or specifically spelled out. For example, while currently-released New Line and Warner DVD titles use the globe logo & number scheme, MGM/UA titles state: "This disc has been encoded for Region 1: The United States, U.S. Territories and Canada." In the cast of Lumivision's discs, they are labelled "Available worldwide," which means that the discs contain no regional coding and will play on any player in any country.“http://www.dvdcity.com/codefree/ codefree-dvd-info.html - Cached - Similar Pages
„They are touting DVDs and DVD players as digital replacements for VCRs and VHS tapes, laserdiscs and their players, video game cartridges, compact discs (CDs), and consoles, audio CDs and players, and computer CD-ROMs and CD-ROM drives. As they did with VCR tapes, DVD vendors propose differing standards: Sony claims their DVDs, known as Multimedia Compact Discs (MMCDs), are technically superior and cheaper to manufacture than Matsushita’s DVDs, called Super Density DVDs (SD-DVDs). Matsushita claims their DVD has already garnered more support with entertainment and electronics bigwigs and while Sony’s MMCDs will be playback only, SD-DVDs will sport a rewritable version.“http://lawcrawler.findlaw.com/mad/dvd.htm - Cached - Similar Pages
