{Don’t forget to enter our anniversary giveaway here!}
The PBS series, American Experience, has a new documentary airing tonight: Tales from the Poisoner’s Handbook (check local listings; it’ll also be available online) and an interactive website to go with it. Those of you who are members of AAFS have undoubtedly received the emails about it (the subject of the documentary was a founding member). A description after the jump:
Happy Anniversary to us! Five years and tens of thousands of visitors later, here we are. As a way to say thank you to all of you who visit regularly, FHO is hosting a self-sponsored giveaway filled with some well-loved items mentioned here in previous posts. Details after the jump: THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED. THANKS FOR PARTICIPATING.
First, let me say thank you to all of you who call and email me about using my work as a part of your presentation or handouts, whether from FHO or other areas of my professional existence. There are a lot of you who do this and it’s not just the right and legal thing to do, but it’s also deeply gratifying to receive those requests because it makes me feel like the entire profession hasn’t lost its collective mind when it comes to being ethical and professional. That being said, I am seriously tired of finding my work (and the work of my colleagues) online, embedded in other people’s slide decks and presentation handouts without attribution and without asking permission. I have said this before–don’t do it. And yet, once again, this weekend I have found my work in someone else’s presentation, including photographs.
