old sayings
by blackgoldfish
Don't panic.
Wherever you go, go with all your heart.
The smallest deed is better than the biggest intention.
Better a diamond with a flaw than a pebble without.
The only reason you die is because you live.
Take the chance while you still have the choice.
The only thing you truly own is your time.
Be brave enough to live creatively.
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
Impossible is a word only to be found in the dictionary of fools.
Keep true to the dreams of your youth.
The beginning of wisdom is to desire it.
Always begin with an end in mind.
The eyes believe themselves; the ears believe other people.
Dream lofty dreams, and as you dream, so shall you become.
Pick a path with heart.
Take a chance in the near future.
Change your luck today.
Rest is a good thing, but boredom is its brother.
Let the spirit of adventure set the tone.
Dare to dream, hope, believe, seek, feel, find, and love.
Be mischievous and you will not be lonesome.
Originality overcomes everything.
Good luck is the result of good planning.

Quick App: C64 Commodore 64 Emulator for iPhone — Can Hack Basic! | The iPhone Blog
by sbrothier
(via)
C64 ($4.99 – iTunes link], a Commodore 64 emulator for the iPhone (and iPod touch) is now available from the App Store, despite having been previously rejected by Apple. FCC spotlight? Phil Schiller intervention? Simple change of heart? Sounds more like a slight change of code, says the C64 blog:
Ultimately, BASIC has been removed for this release; however, we hope that working with Apple further will allow us to re-enable it.

my secret to happy relationship - alyson
by blackgoldfish
What makes my relationship with DLB, my partner-in-crime and soon-to-be husband, so special is our friendship. Whether we're singing songs together on a road trip, reading books on a blanket in the park or tasting the newest beer at the local brew pub, it's important to be able to have fun together....Or you could win his heart by baking a peach pie. That one always works.

Salut Olivier,
tu seras peut-être intéressé par les lettres et communications des personnes des camps japonais, comme par exemple Lone Heart Mountain du fond d'archives de Japanese American Relocation Digital Archives (JARDA).

Duoh.com
by fabifab
Veerle, graphic design degree in hand, started Duoh! in 1992, focusing on freelance print work. In 1994, she was wooed by Geert Leyseele. Clutching her strong graphic design principles under one arm, and her heart in the other, she took the leap, and a little while later, beautiful little Duoh! n.v. was born.
Geert Leyseele
As it turned out, Geert wasn't just another pretty face. Veerle's hero brought superpowers to her business: X-ray vision to see around corners into the future of the web, a drive to move to Web Standards, an eye for project management, and the ability to leap wireframes and IA obstacles in a single bound.
When Veerle's blog became famous around the world for her tutorials and insights on design, CSS, and other subjects, fascinated readers saw the picture in the heading and asked, "Is that the designer's girlfriend?" No, it was Veerle, the other happy half of Duoh!
Life is our inspiration
We inhale the richness of life :
* sharing love, laughter, and knowledge with our friends and web community
* absorbing design (from galaxies to retro menus to bathroom faucets, we see it everywhere)
* putting our minds to design puzzles
* digging deeply into markup and code so our designs can sing
* delighting in chill house and progressive house music, art and artists, lovely sandy beaches, and biking through the countryside
and, then, we exhale websites.
Growing up but staying small
We love what we do and want to do it ourselves, not manage others. We create websites for some Big Clients (and fresh, little start-ups, too), and choose our clients just as carefully as they choose us. Each day, we throw ourselves passionately into the task of becoming better at work and at play. The rest of the Duoh! story? Look around; our work says it all.

by karlcow
I listen more attentively. I feel more like I am standing next to the participant as opposed to opposite to them. We compensate participants not only with money but also with respect, candidness, and humanness. We adopted their language to explain that we value them and their obstacles; both sides are “participants” in the research.
