			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ran across this funny piece entitled <a href="http://www.thenetworkadministrator.com/top20.htm" target="_blank">The Top 20 replies by programmers when their programs don&#8217;t work</a>. Sad but true:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>20. &#8220;That&#8217;s weird&#8230;&#8221;<br />
19. &#8220;It&#8217;s never done that before.&#8221;<br />
18. &#8220;It worked yesterday.&#8221;<br />
17. &#8220;How is that possible?&#8221;<br />
16. &#8220;It must be a hardware problem.&#8221;<br />
15. &#8220;What did you type in wrong to get it to crash?&#8221;<br />
14. &#8220;There is something funky in your data.&#8221;<br />
13. &#8220;I haven&#8217;t touched that module in weeks!&#8221;<br />
12. &#8220;You must have the wrong version.&#8221;<br />
11. &#8220;It&#8217;s just some unlucky coincidence.&#8221;<br />
10. &#8220;I can&#8217;t test everything!&#8221;<br />
9. &#8220;THIS can&#8217;t be the source of THAT.&#8221;<br />
8. &#8220;It works, but it hasn&#8217;t been tested.&#8221;<br />
7. &#8220;Somebody must have changed my code.&#8221;<br />
6. &#8220;Did you check for a virus on your system?&#8221;<br />
5. &#8220;Even though it doesn&#8217;t work, how does it feel?<br />
4. &#8220;You can&#8217;t use that version on your system.&#8221;<br />
3. &#8220;Why do you want to do it that way?&#8221;<br />
2. &#8220;Where were you when the program blew up?&#8221;</em></p>
<p><em>And the Number One reply by programmers when their programs don&#8217;t work:</em></p>
<p><em>1. &#8220;It works on my machine.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote>
<p>I can add several more:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>24. &#8220;Open a ticket.&#8221; (the sane yet bureaucratic approach)<br />
23. &#8220;Does it reproduce? No? I&#8217;m closing the bug.&#8221;<br />
</em><em>22. &#8220;&#8221; (awkward silence)</em><br />
<em>21. &#8220;It&#8217;s not a bug, it&#8217;s a feature.&#8221; (the classic)</em></p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Having seen the <a href="http://www.myheritage.com/celebrity-face-recognition">celebrity look alike webapp</a>, I had some funny inspiration for testing. Let&#8217;s see how well it works and see if the celebrities look like themselves!</p>
<p><a title="MyHeritage - free family trees, genealogy and face recognition" href="http://www.myheritage.com/collage" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.myheritagefiles.com/K/storage/site1/files/67/12/82/671282_89050952bf7284kxq7gt44.JPG" border="0" alt="" width="500" height="574" /></a></p>
<p>My <em>Hollywood Twin</em>, Johnny Depp, only looks like himself by 76%. That sucks for the algorithm developers. On the other hand, this guy has a hundred different faces in a hundred different roles, so what&#8217;s the wonder he doesn&#8217;t completely look like himself. One could also get a little philosophical and ask what it even means to look like yourself. Both <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddha">Buddha</a> and <a href="http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Heraclitus">Heraclitus</a> have said thousands of years ago that there is no permanence. If the cells in my body die and new cells are constantly born, why should I even look like myself by 100%?</p>
<p>Apparently Scarlett Johansson doesn&#8217;t even look like herself as a top match, but more like Lara Flynnn Boyle. Lost twins, or just hot babes? You may be the judge:</p>
<p><a title="MyHeritage - free family trees, genealogy and face recognition" href="http://www.myheritage.com/collage" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.myheritagefiles.com/K/storage/site1/files/67/12/22/671222_432543d1bf72846ncta789.JPG" border="0" alt="" width="500" height="574" /></a></p>
<p>However, if there is once constant in the world where you can&#8217;t enter the same river twice and not even once, it&#8217;s the beloved Arnold Schwarzenegger with the well sculpted face of iron:</p>
<p><a title="MyHeritage - free family trees, genealogy and face recognition" href="http://www.myheritage.com/collage" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.myheritagefiles.com/K/storage/site1/files/67/51/82/675182_05634368ef7284ynkpqr27.JPG" border="0" alt="" width="500" height="574" /></a></p>
<p>And who looks the most like a chimp? Jet Lee, Albert Einstein, and apparently also the late Yitzhak Rabin:</p>
<p><a title="MyHeritage - free family trees, genealogy and face recognition" href="http://www.myheritage.com/collage" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.myheritagefiles.com/K/storage/site1/files/67/11/72/671172_036185f0bf7284i3kty753.JPG" border="0" alt="" width="500" height="574" /></a></p>
<p>Last but not least, if you want to make another remake for the film Frankenstein, save yourself the heavy costs of makeup and special fx by hiring David Beckham as the lead role:</p>
<p><a title="MyHeritage - free family trees, genealogy and face recognition" href="http://www.myheritage.com/collage" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.myheritagefiles.com/K/storage/site1/files/67/13/32/671332_61890533bf7284xun09e89.JPG" border="0" alt="" width="500" height="574" /></a></p>
