Light, camera, action — but no gray card?
Chances are you have one in, literally, the palm of your either hand, which palm, reasonably clean, is about one f-stop brighter than an 12–18% gray card.

Chances are you have one... but a download away:

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 01:16:43 +0000

At the focus, the family comes together and sits down � at least in Ancient Rome, where "focus" still meant "fireplace", among other things.
In Yahoo! Mail today, your hottest contacts' messages come together in the focus, and you sit down for a wider virtual family gathering:
�� "Focus, focus, focus," they say. You do: you see only the important emails � emails from your Yahoo! connections � in your Yahoo! Mail folders.

Thanksgiving Cornucopia - Free IncrediMail Letter Download and E-Card

Mon, 02 Nov 2009 02:32:46 +0000

Zeus, father of the Greek gods but still a kid, was fostered by Amalthaea, who lovingly fed him goat's milk. When one of the goat's horns broke off, Amalthaea filled it with fruits and flowers and brought it to Zeus. Zeus in return placed both Amalthaea and the horn among the stars. The horn became a horn of plenty or cornucopia, always filled with whatever the owner wished for:

How to Access Free Windows Live Hotmail in Gmail

Mon, 02 Nov 2009 01:24:13 +0000

Hot, loud, dark and full of people. This is a nightclub.
Looking down from one of the pedestals with two scientists, you observe all kinds of odd behavior. When people try to talk, for example, they will put their mouth to the listener's right ear.
They do this because humans, like many animals, process meaningful sound with the left half of their brain � which is better connected to the body's right side.
Hot, live and full of mail: this is your Windows Live Hotmail account.
Want to connect it better with your other email accounts? Gmail is all ears, if you know the path to take:
�� Windows Live Hotmail plus Gmail: access messages arriving at your Hotmail address in Gmail and send messages using that address right from within Gmail, too.

What is Unicode?

Sat, 31 Oct 2009 01:13:37 +0000

Umbrella? Rainy weather.
What happens when rain drops appear and dot the brolly? That's showery weather, of course, and worse, I presume.
Thankfully, the very next symbol in Unicode's universal table of characters is just what we need now: a hot beverage, "tea or coffee, depending on locale". The steaming cup warms not just the hands, of course, but also the heart.
Let us, thus, warm to Unicode. It is a bag of wonders, as we have seen, and an assortment of weathers — but what else?
›› Unicode assigns a number to each character no matter the writing system, language or operating system, allowing information to be exchanged without obstruction between computers.

Free: Your Weekly Mac OS X Mail Tip

Wed, 28 Oct 2009 01:01:07 +0000

As is proper for any respectable philosopher, Aristotle used to walk around while teaching. This is why his school is called the "peripatetic" or "wandering".
This etymology is, of course, wrong. It is true, though, that "peri-" means "around". Add to this "hodos", "going", and you get periodos, a going-around, a circle, a cycle of events, a period of time.

Kaldi's goats were bright, hardy and stubborn; just the way goats are. This afternoon, one goat after the other started to move a bit faster, though, then to run and, finally, to dance with a glee look on its white, pointy face.
Kaldi investigated. He found all the dancing goats had nibbled from bean-sized, brightly red berries — which, roasted and black, we know today as coffee.
Now, how about your iPhone's Gmail moving a bit faster, dancing almost, on alkaloids?
