Gemma doesn’t seem to have picked up on this one yet, but a while ago Ben and I were talking in MSN, or Yahoo, and he showed me this link, to a woman (she is a Graphic Designer) in the US’s blog, and at the same time this link, to Gemma’s site, and asked me what was the same (the hint is to the right ->) it seems Ferris, doesn’t understand that linking to the copyright owners site is a good idea on the web.

Which all in all leads me onto my point about copyright infringement (please note that because a Picture is worth 1000 words, I have included the article that appeared in the Redbridge Guardian in its completeness, as its not online. (please click on for larger)

As stated in the previous blog post Ruth was involved with the Woodhouse players Little Mermaid. and I took some photos for, including the one on the right, and if your looking at it thinking you have seen it before, well yes, its the one in the news paper clipping. On the Wood hose players page the following is stated "Images by and © Skippy - http://PhilipMcGaw.com"; why is it that the Redbridge Guardian have failed even to state that the image was provided by the wood house players for inclusion in the article, there is space for the copyright, or reference directly below the image. I would not have minded having something like "image provided by Woodhouse players" as I gave the images to the WHP, but as it is the source of the image is unclear.

Which brings us back to Gods Copyright; in the conversation between Ben and me, he asked if because Ferris had stated

I am going to cherish a sunset that God has made previously and that someone else thought was so beautiful that it had to be captured by a photograph

Is this why she did not feel the need to reference Gemma for taking the photo?

Updated title with regards to bens post on Creationist Copyright.

In this article all copyright holders, and sources have been attributed, and items for which I don’t hold copyright have been used for Citation, I believe this is fair use, please tell me (in the comments section) if you disagree.

Dan the evil guy, who likes Google. (who try to do no evil) came up with an image of who is getting there arse’s kicked by the pod cast [see here] now at the moment I am in no danger of loosing to it, but i have remembered just how long ago my last post was, as such its time to fill in.

Since the 14th November I have not put fingers to keyboard once, towards putting information(?) in my blog!

so in the news.

1. New Job! - since the 28th of November, I have been working as an Assistant Engineer with a company called Kembrey Wiring Systems Ltd. There main product is boxes filled with wires, and connectors to go on British Aircraft, the job is not too bad, but can be a little slow, and monotonous at times.
2. Loupie’s Panto, Ruth was in a rendition of The Little Mermaid over Christmas, (you may have been told about it) and i took some of the photos that have since appeared on the Woodhouse Players site :D
3. Ruth and I pent Christmas and New year together, (your not having all the details :p).

There will be more to come, so enjoy :D

After a bit of fun looking for keys i know are on a keyboard! here we are with the latest blog post, and yes this one was sent from Spain!

 A friend fromn School, Hannah, Her Boyfriend, Ruth and I are all shairing a small villa in the Costa Calda region of spain, on the cost of the largest salt water lagoon in europe!

any way, just poped in to upload the photos and have done, it should all make more sense when i fix my laptop (blown it up i think….) but more on this all later as i only have two minuts to log out……… 

(some photos http://skippy.org.uk/lazy-index.php?file=Spain/)

Ruth, Hannah, Eddy and I are off to Spain today!

In Other news Swindon Station was closed off last night due to a “Security Alert” [from Swindon Advertiser], Now as some one on the 18:11 departure from Swindon to London Paddington, i can assure you that the adver is yet again full of crap. (not really unusual) the security response was, the guy in a yellow jacket that FGW employ to look after the station, four plane clothed security staff (possibly police), and only when the train was due to depart one lowly WPC on the platform. oh and no one had a gun,

So 2 hours of sitting on a train in swindon, and Ben has lots of work to do.

A while ago Manda posted about LibraryThing.com in her blog, Ruth has also signed up, as have I, my library shelf can be found here, they also let you have little widgits for your blog (mine is at the bottom of the right hand collum)

On Wednesday my two bunnies arived from Think Geek, My Nabaztag was to be called Frigg, as my computer naming convention is currently running with Norse Goddess, Ruth has called Hers RoSS, at the moment they are both sat on my book shelf, RoSS on the right, Frigg on the left.

The two Nabaztags were to mark Ruth and I’s three years together. as a web controled rabits, they comunicate with servers in France, however this does not stop people writing there own functions for them, Nabaztalk is a forum set up for developers. and has a list of API interfaces, also you can get cloths and other things for your Nabaztag from Nabzone, however i am looking to make mine a coat out of Chainmail.

The Origional Bolt is dead, After 10 years of online-ness, they closed it today, that is 10 years of my online life closed, all the REG’s i have met and know from there have moved around, some i can keep in contact with through Facebook, Tedious Path, and helldot[seems to be down]. but it wont be the same without the Wiccan Board.

Bolt(folio) is no replacement, if your an old Bolter and want to keep in touch please check here.

I tried that stupid thing, and felt well, silly, 20 miles in i got attacked by a bunch of Bogles and cold, and pouring rain!

on the weekend (16th-17th) I will be down in plymouth, hopefully i can give the money to ViP and RAG then.

Can some one Get Kitty to call me please?

Also if you dont yet know what a Bogle is go here.

my poor lil Ruthie is still ill, and so is Dave, which seems to be odd, as Manda and I are both fine at the moment, today the four of us went into Carlisle to see three Manchester Raggies; Ian, Pete, and Harry Potter. All of whom were collecting for the Meningitis Research Foundation. hopefully if my car is good *finds an approprate god, and starts praying* we will be seeing Harry tommorow on the way south.
