As my photo library passes 10,000 I’ve started to review my work flow and tooling. Of course, a work flow describes some sequence of steps towards some end (or purpose).
Obviously one purpose is to keep order and avoid an electronic shoe-box stuffed with digital images (e.g., you can find the pictures taken, which becomes harder as the number grows). But may be there are other, less obvious goals. This will require more thought.
States of Emergency: Bhutto and the Candidates: The Talk of the Town: The New Yorker Annotated
In 1993, Mary Anne Weaver wrote a Profile for this magazine in which she described the paradox of Benazir Bhutto:She is part Radcliffe and Oxford, with an extremely well-stocked mind, full of feminist literature, peace marches, the Oxford Union, and with a very liberated social life. She is also part feudal Sindh, a haughty aristocrat, the daughter and granddaughter of immensely wealthy landlords, whose inheritance gave her the right to rule. . . . She is an Eastern fatalist by birth, a Western liberal by conviction, and a people-power revolutionary—who has carefully modelled herself on Evita Perón and Corazon Aquino—through sheer necessity. She is an expensively educated product of the West who has ruled a male-dominated Islamic society of the East. She is a democrat who appeals to feudal loyalties.
LILEKS (James) the Institute of Official Cheer.
This site hosts a number of retro-media including old advertisements. I don’t recall yeast as the cure for pimples, but then I went through that period in the 60’s so by then there was Clearasil.

Feature: Supercharge Your Scheduling with GCal
How many calendars do you have? I have 8:
- a wall calendar in the kitchen at home
- a “tent” calendar on my desk at the office
- Desk calendar at my home office
- Outlook
- Blackberry
- iCal on my iMac
- Calendar on my iPod
- Google calendar
The real question though is where do I keep my appointments. The first three are paper-based, so they are really just for reference (e.g., quickly finding the date of some weekend in June).
Outlook is for office appointments, and that synchronizes with the Blackberry.
The last three are for personal appointments. I’m thinking that putting them up on Google will let me share my calendar with my wife. In the past we used the wall calendar in the kitchen for that. May be now we can automate it. Some how I doubt it.
