Grow Your Own Green Light Bulbs

GROW YOUR OWN LIGHT BULBS

The Government has been working with all the large retailers who sell lightbulbs, the lighting industry and our energy companies.

We want them to phase out the old-fashioned bulbs and replace them with energy efficient ones.

If we make the switch, we will be using less energy — we could save the equivalent energy of taking five million cars off the road – Gordon Brown

Getty Uses Flickr: We’re All Paparazzo Now

GETTY is worried:

It was announced on the Flickr blog on July 8th but I only knew about it from this story in the Guardian’s media section today (so score one for the ‘dead tree media’ I suppose).   The plan is that Getty Images will trawl through the photos on Flickr to look for ones they think are marketable, which they will then buy off you for the same rates they pay established journalists.   Darryn Lyons and his Big Picture are also soliciting photos through their Mr Paparazzi website

Ethnic Cleansing: The Sun Photoshops Prince William

CAN you believe what you see in the newspapers?

Prince William’s campaign to try on every uniform Britain has to offer is a wow – next week it’s baker, then butcher, then cub scout, before a week as a traffic warden in Slough, then a few days as a Beefeater before ending the summer as a lap dancer.

The Sun and Metro, one of London’s top half dozen free newspapers, follows the action as Wills tries his hand, legs and arms in a Navy get up.

He calls it: “A charming piece of ethnic cleansing by The Sun.”

But surely it is the Metro that has seen fit to include in the picture Wills’ valet wearing in the uniform of Brent Council’s Youth Liason Officer Corps.

Rehab For Judges

THIS picture: “The Juvenile justice in the Pacific was addressed at the recent annual meeting of the heads of the South Pacific Council of Youth and Children’s Courts (SPCYCC).”

The caption: “Magistrates and judges who attended the recent annual meeting of the heads of the South Pacific Council of Youth and Children’s Courts held in Apia, Samoa.”

The sign above their heads: “REHAB CENTRE.”

The judgment: Judges condemn themselves.”
