JISC Digital Media - Still images, moving images and sound advice
This is a good site for information and resources on digital and imaging issues.
I believe that this site is related to TASI, Technical Advisory Service for Images ; which I can't find anymore.
The desktop images from TASI are very useful.
Paid Advertisement
While looking at the CSS Formatter and Optimiser site I was treated to this paid advertisment.
I dislike this when it is used on TV; to take control of my screen and push unwanted information at me.
Even more so, when it is used on the web.

Cats Adore, Manipulate Women
Cats attach to humans, and particularly women, as social partners, and it's not just for the sake of obtaining food.

- Relationships between cats and their owners mirror human bonds, especially when the owner is a woman.
- Cats hold some control over when they are fed and handled, functioning very similar to human children in some households.
- While the age, sex and personality of owners affect these relationships, the sex of the cat doesn't seem to matter.
Although there are isolated instances of non-human animals, such as gorillas, bonding with other species, it seems to be mostly unique for humans to engage in social relationships with other animals.
The bond between cats and their owners turns out to be far more intense than imagined, especially for cat aficionado women and their affection reciprocating felines, suggests a new study.
Cats attach to humans, and particularly women, as social partners, and it's not just for the sake of obtaining food, according to the new research, which has been accepted for publication in the journal Behavioural Processes.
