class="toc"> <li> <a href="newcombs_paradox.html">Newcomb's Paradox</a> <p> How to win cash prizes playing games with omnipotent beings. </p> </li> <li> <a href="pi_is_wrong.html">Pi is Wrong</a> <p> Why the value of Pi has been wrong all these years. </p> </li> <li> <a href="map.html">Google Map</a> <p> An embedded Google Map showing places of interest to me. </p> </li> <li> <a href="goldbach.html">Goldbach Weave</a> <p> A graphical illustration of Goldbach's Conjecture which states that every even number greater than 2 is the sum of two prime numbers. </p> </li> <li> <a href="commercial.html">Commercial Email</a> <p> My commercial email receiving service, designed to lure spammers into harvesting an email address that obliges them to pay me when they use it. </p> </li> <li> <a href="ben.html">Ben Wardley</a> <p> We're fortunate enough to have a professional phototgrapher, <a href="http://www.phototech.co.uk/" class="ext">Bill Prentice</a>, as a friend. He took some photographs of our son, Ben, for a christmas present for his Grandma and Grandad. Fortunately G&G don't have Internet access so I can safely put this picture up without fear of them seeing it and spoiling the surprise.... </p> </li> <li> <a href="ben_luke_jedi.html">Ben and Luke: Jedi Knights</a> <p> It's not true that we named our children after characters from Star Wars. But that's not so say they don't like playing at being characters from Star Wars. This is what we did with a little Photoshop magic. </p> </li> <li> <a href="greedkillsmusic.html">Corporate Greed is Killing Music</a> <p> Here is my version of the "Home Taping is Killing Music" skull-and-crossbones logo that the record industry used to scare young children back in the 1980s. It is a protest aimed at the likes of Hewlett-Packard and Sony who have announced that all their products will soon be including Digital Rights Managements software. DRM is eroding your rights as a consumer to give even more power and money to Microsoft and their corporate buddies. Resist! </p> </li> </ul> </div> </div> <div id="footer"> <div id="reddit"> <script>reddit_url='http://wardley.org/misc/index.html'</script> <script language="javascript" src="http://reddit.com/button.js?t=3"></script> </div> <div class="iconset"> <a href="/index.html" class="abw icon" title="Home"><span class="caption">Home</span></a><a href="/computers/index.html" class="computer icon" title="Computers"><span class="caption">Computers</span></a><a href="/computers/tt.html" class="tt2 icon" title="Template Toolkit"><span class="caption">Template Toolkit</span></a><a href="/computers/perl/index.html" class="camel icon" title="Perl Programming"><span class="caption">Perl Programming</span></a><a href="/kites/index.html" class="kite icon" title="Kites"><span class="caption">Kites</span></a><a href="/boards/index.html" class="mboard icon" title="Boards"><span class="caption">Boards</span></a><a href="/graphics/index.html" class="cool icon" title="Graphics"><span class="caption">Graphics</span></a> <br clear="all" /> </div> <div class="copyright"> © Copyright 1995-2009 Andy Wardley.
