![]() I have long thought the story was over too, but I’m guessing we’re reading different books.”Ĭhan and I and the US President are just going to ignore Wilhite and just continue to pronounce it with a hard ‘G,’ like ‘gift’ without the ‘T.’ Because no one on the planet pronounces it ‘jif. The pronunciation of GIF is specified in the GIF specification to be jif, as in jiffy, rather then gif, which most people seem to prefer. Sir, why did you not name it JIF like the peanut butter then! End of story. Gizmodo’s Casey Chan pretty much sums up my view on this, in an article so elaborately ridiculous it brings joy, “He’s saying we, the people of America, are wrong. It is a soft ‘G,’ pronounced ‘jif.’ End of story.” “The Oxford English Dictionary accepts both pronunciations,” Mr. He is proud of the GIF, but remains annoyed that there is still any debate over the pronunciation of the format. Wilhite wants you to know that the White House is wrong: Using it inside your email marketing with a certain amount of finesse can create mood and can, at times, be used to improve the experience over static images.The New York Times has a lovely interview up with Steve Wilhite, the inventor of the illustrious GIF file. When used strategically and appropriately this small bitmap can turn any email into something fun and interesting. the creator of the GIF, would say, Choosy developers choose GIF. The use of animation here is perfect because you can show actual interaction and change in screen view. The GIF (Graphics Interchange Format), pronounced JIF, was designed by CompuServe. They use this animation technique to show a few features in their software. They promote the use of GIFs with their software but on a good content = good email basis. how to pronounce the word to the popular animated file format. Mail Chimp, an email marketing company, addresses the use of GIF’s in this short blog post. Yet the idea behind the animations support the movie’s overall theme. This email graphic for the film Looper is even more subtle in it’s construction. They didn’t use a GIF just to be eye-catching, there is a concept here that showcases the actual product. ![]() If the red doesn’t suite you, you can get it in yellow. Make a Meme Make a GIF Make a Chart Make a Demotivational Flip Through Images. Exhibit Aīoden has used a GIF to show different variations in the products they offer. Yes, these little animated bits of joy can be funny and sometimes pretty entertaining, but where can these actually be used to support a good marketing message? Why not in a marketing email where 50% of the time users already chose to view images as well as in a context that is much more openminded to different types of content. There is certainly a time and place for this specific design trend and that brings me to it’s recent usage in email design. For almost a year now, Twitter has actually stopped supporting animated GIFs for profiles. ![]() I thought it was a bit too distracting, therefore I stopped following that user. The first time I saw an animated GIF being used in the last couple of years was for a Twitter profile image. The same reason that shelved this popular format a decade ago would also become a big reason for it’s comeback a loud and flashy visual that can show meaning rather than say it. This format of short animation quickly became popular in the early 90’s and with that popularity resulted in an overabundance and abuse of the format. ![]() Wilhite corrected them when they pronounced it with a hard G with “Choosy developers choose GIF”. As it’s creator, Steve Wilhite was honored this year for a Webby Lifetime Achievement award, he accepted the award with none other than an animation of his own design that stated “It’s pronounced JIF not GIF”. That sent Twitter and other popular social media outlets buzzing while news syndicates couldn’t stop writing about it. As web developer Steve Olsen explains, employees that worked with Mr. Animated GIFs have had a bit of controversy in the media recently.

Prophet’s Prey is a disturbing and shocking examination of Warren Jeffs and the Fundamentalist Church of Latter Day Saints. Prophet’s Prey focuses its lens on a different religion, and different leader, perpetrating similar crimes. Prophet’s Prey (2015) is directed by Amy Berg, whose specialty as a documentarian appears to be in exposing crimes against children within the context of their society or religion at large beginning with as her Academy Award nominated documentary Deliver Us From Evil (2006), which explored numerous reports of child sexual abuse by defrocked Catholic priest Oliver O’Grady. PROPHET'S PREY premieres Thursday 11 August at 8.30pm on Rialto Channel.Documentaries which focus on uncovering the evils of religion are a particular favourite of mine to watch, and this documentary is no exception, despite its harrowing and sickening subject matter. Much respect to Berg, and I can’t wait to see what she tackles next. Todd Bridges, the “Diff’rent Strokes” star who has said he suffered sexual abuse as a young actor, is interviewed, while Corey Feldman, who has spoken out against sex abuse in the past, appears in footage from prior TV interviews but doesn’t directly participate in the movie.Īt time of writing the film has apparently finally received a (limited) distribution deal, and will be yet another harrowing yet essential watch. The movie features extensive interviews with Michael Eagan, who, subsequent to participating in the film, drew headlines for his allegations against key Hollywood power players like X-MEN director Bryan Singer (he subsequently dropped the lawsuit). The film centres on the rise and demise of Den, an early digital network that was allegedly at the heart of a Hollywood sex-abuse ring. The problem is the subject matter, which is amongst Berg’s most controversial yet. “We get one screening,” the director reportedly told the audience after the credits rolled. The film premiered in late 2014 as part of the DOC NYC festival, and has faced significant hurdles in securing a release, a fact that Berg, who attended the screening along with some of the film’s subjects, acknowledged up front. “Thank you for telling this story!” an audience member cried out just before the first screening of her Hollywood sex abuse documentary, AN OPEN SECRET, which is a title that begs for an expose. It is frustrating viewing, but like many of Berg’s other works, it is a story that needed to be told.Īs aforementioned, Berg doesn’t shy away from unpleasant subject matter, and is often the person willing to tackle the most insidious of tales. From his cell, he continues to correspond with his followers, issuing apocalyptic warnings of imminent natural disasters. Though Jeffs is now imprisoned, there are many children still living in dangerous conditions, and Berg has her doubts that many members of the cult will be able to shake off their leader’s influence. Despite a trail of abuse and ruined lives, Warren has maintained his grip on power. Even now he has a devout following numbering in the tens of thousands - many of whom would give their life at any moment with just one word from the “great” man. The finely crafted film examines Warren Jeffs' life and shows us exactly how he became a worshipped and adored Prophet. ![]() To say he took things to the next level would be putting it mildly - he bridged the gap between sister wives and ecclesiastical rape, befuddling the moral compass of his entire congregation. In a short time however, Jeffs managed to expand these practices and the power of his position in unprecedented ways. When lead subject Warren Jeffs rose to Prophet of the Fundamentalist Church of Latter Day Saints, he took control of a religion with a very long history of polygamous and underage marriage. The Oscar-nominated documentarian delves into another story of innocence abused, but this time the lens is turned on authority figures in the Fundamentalist Church of Latter Day Saints rather than the upper echelon of the Catholic faith. ![]() To say I admire and have utmost respect for what she does would probably be a better way to phrase things, as the incredible talent is one who doesn’t mind getting her hands dirty when it comes to some of the most repugnant topics out there.Ī chilling portrait of a megalomaniac, tonight’s documentary helmed by Berg is PROPHET’S PREY, a narrative of warped religious authority and patriarchal abuse every bit as chilling as her pedophile priest exposé, DELIVER US FROM EVIL. Usually featuring subject matter that is incredibly hard to stomach, her films are amongst some of the most confronting being released today, and completely compelling. To say that I “love” the work of documentarian Amy Berg would be a poor choice of words.

There is a TV in every household- stats show the majority of U.S. While their services are still needed, their value is no longer a luxury but a commodity. These companies had their heyday from the 1920s through the 1980s.

In the death spiral, the company grows beyond Man’s capacity to understand and the death spiral ensues. On the Slope of Enlightenment, Man meets the company half-way in harmony to make excellent progress. The death spiral is one of those gothic relationships with art where the art object overpowers Man. Other companies desperately try any attempt that might help save the company from failure, obsolescence, and death.

But how does that get into the change?įor me, it’s simple. Well, if you know the change reference, perhaps you could use that as your search term. It’s important then to be able to search for what you’re looking for.įor example, let’s say that you executed a network change and two days later a problem arises that you think might have started during your change, and you’d like to check your session file to see what you might have missed at the time. Tracking iTerm2 Log FilesĪs I mentioned above, logging every session by default is great but does create a log of files, so how are you going to find the one you want? Each file is dated, so that’s a good starting point, but if like me you keep terminal windows open over a period of days and weeks (simply because OSX makes it so gosh darned easy to just shut the lid and walk away then open it the next day and carry on where you left off) then you may have files whose start date is not the same as the data you are looking for. Yes, you can easily log on demand (Shell menu > Log > Start, then give it a file name), but this is much simpler in my opinion. iTerm falls into the same trap perhaps I’m unusual in wanting to be able to scroll back through an entire configuration after I’ve viewed it? So while you’re adding session logging, I suggest you pop to the Terminal tab and select Unlimited Lines for your scrollback buffer: ![]() We aren’t running machines with 64KB of memory any more nor with meagre storage, so why PuTTY’s default profile still only has a teeny tiny scrollback history, I just don’t know. Check the option under Miscellaneous and choose a file path to store your log files: Choose Default (or whichever profile you want to edit), and click on the Session tab on the right hand side. It’s easy to enable go to the iTerm menu > Preferences. Especially if you make network changes and need to keep a session log, this is a real win, because it means you never forget to log the session! The down side is that this means lots of files, but on the other hand it means I am always keeping a record of what I saw, what commands I have issued, and so forth, and there’s never a conflict. Each one is date stamped and is unique for each session, so six open windows means six session files. ![]() In iTerm2 though, there’s an option to enable logging of sessions by default. I don’t know if you can automatically create unique filenames to stop conflicts when you have two sessions using the same profile, but then for some reason I never tried. In PuTTY I didn’t set up logging by default in any of my profiles. So with that said, here are a few tips for iTerm2 that I find valuable as a network engineer. But what to use on the Mac? I started off using the built in Terminal which actually isn’t bad at all, but in the end I was encouraged to try iTerm2 and I am very happy with it for my needs. On Windows I’ve been using PuTTY for years as my default telnet/ssh client, partly because it’s a stunningly good, lightweight program (huge tip of the hat to Simon Tatham here, along with anybody else who had contributed to that project). Now that I’ve joined the hipster gang and have a MacBook Pro, I’ve also had to adjust my habits in terms of terminal program. ![]() “‘From 2 to 3’ was the first song that I wrote for the album.
