LinkedIn Certificate Expired Again! #linkedin

July 6, 2009 by webhat

You would not believe it, last year today I wrote the article: LinkedIn Certificate Expired. And today it happened again, this time it’s not in a weekend.

www.linkedin.com uses an invalid security certificate.

The certificate expired on 06/07/2009 19:41.

(Error code: sec_error_expired_certificate)

Will they learn from this for next year?

Thanks to Ali for the heads up!

Just Finished Reading “Chant and Be Happy” #books

June 27, 2009 by webhat

On the 30th of April, Queensday in the Netherlands, the movement organized a meeting in the Amsterdam. I was given the book Chant and Be Happy: The Power of Mantra Meditation to read by a friendly Hare Krishna who was walking by. (Although he could have been .)

With interviews with John Lennon and George Harrison it is not just an interesting book, but also a book of historical interest.

Just Finished Reading Clive Barker’s “Books of Blood” #books

June 25, 2009 by webhat

I love Clive Barker’s style, so when I found Books of Blood Omnibus: Volumes 1-3 and Books of Blood Omnibus: Volumes 4-6 for UGX 14800 (approx. EUR 5.055[1]) while I was in Kampala I bought them. These are an omnibus edition of a series of 6 books which contained most of the short stories Barker has written, all are inspired by fear of the unknown.

You might think sleepless nights are a thing of the past, they aren’t! A must read!

Just Finished Reading “Who Will Cry When You Die?” #books

June 23, 2009 by webhat

Who Will Cry When You Die? is another book by which I received from my girlfriend.

The book is filled with short punchy wisdom, and life lessons. The book made me realize that one of the goals is to make a difference for others.

A good book to dip into daily.

Just Finished Reading “The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari” #books

June 22, 2009 by webhat

My girlfriend gave me The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari by Robin Sharma, it is a fantastical book, a fable within a fable. The Monk suffers much of the same issues as The Celestine Prophecy, with the exception that The Monk doesn’t pretend to be a novel.

I would certainly read this book again.

  • Holiday 2010: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1, based on the final novel, is scheduled for theatrical release.
  • Summer 2011: The final movie, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2, will be released.

UPDATE: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is being released on the 15th of July.

Fair Use #copyright

IANAL and TINLA but this post, and the wikipedia entry Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and the 1979 Hostage Crisis, are examples of fair-use. Although if this photo was included in an article about the Iran hostage crisis this would not be an instance of fair-use.

So could I freely include a photograph just by discussing the photograph?

I read a book to my god daughter. We practised doing handstands, made pictures on the pavement with chalk, and played with a ball.
