Jun. 8th, 2003 01:08 pmgot up at 8 am this morning, for some reason the bleary mind got the impresion that it was noon. it wasn't. but i'm up now, and i bet everbody regrets that.
anyhow at nine or so i tried to connect to the internet and it prompted me for my password, which it shouldn't be doing.... so i opened the Remote Access Control Panel and yupper.... prefs for remote access and TCP/IP have mysteriously purged themselves. Internet? Whutchu talkin bout, WIllus?
so i've spent a few hours now trying to teach my computer how to re-connect to the internet. no easy feat without any of the jumble of odd numbers, passcodes and ip addresses needed to get through to Temple. Eventually i found an old piece of paper with all of that stuff written on it, so i'm okay there, but i was sweating bullets for a bit, and now i have to clean the living room again. But I'm wondering, how did the internet prefs kill themselves to begin with? nothing else seems affected.

the fake detective is on the case
Oct. 8th, 2002 12:14 pmLast Friday, NPR's Morning Edition contained a feature on the progress (or lack thereof) in case of the mysterious anthrax tainted letters sent to various congressmen and media groups.1 In an odd turn of events, they interviewed a private citizen, one Ed Lake, concerning the details of his own private, non state sponsored investigation of the letters, which is suprisingly lucid and logical, considering that he has culled most of his conclusions based upon image files gleaned from the internet. 2
Mr. Lake is no stranger to examining images, he is also known as the "Fake Detective," a man performing a perhaps dubious service for celebrities, namely he examines nude celebrity pictures to determine their legitimacy. He has uncovered hundreds of "fake" photoshopped pictures and preserved the "Good name" of celebrities such as Winona Ryder, Gillian Anderson, Madonna, and Tom Daschle to name just a few. The results of his investigations, along with the images that he examines, and proofs he uncovers, are on his website.3 I've known about the site for some time, (my motto: "If it's useless, and on the web, i'll find it.") always wondered if the site existed as a clearinghouse for these fakes, and a target for all the fakers out there, ("dude, let's see if we can get THIS one past the fake detective!") or as the site itself states, a public service.
I'm not sure how I feel about all of this, NPR citing someone with no credentials other than as a website operator with considerable experience examining pictures as a credible source in the Anthrax investigation, or the fact that he was their most compelling spokesperson. Of all the people interviewed, he seemed to have made the most concrete progress.
