Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP Is Investigating Bridgepoint Education, Inc. On Behalf Of Its Shareholders - BPI
NEW YORK, Nov. 1, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a national law firm concentrating on investor rights, consumer rights and the enforcement of federal antitrust laws, is investigating potential wrongdoing at Bridgepoint Education, Inc. ("Bridgepoint" or the "Company") (NYSE: BPI). The investigation focuses on whether certain executive officers and directors of Bridgepoint breached their fiduciary duties by causing the Company to, among other things, improperly compensate its admission personnel at Ashford University. Bridgepoint is the parent company of Ashford University, an academic institution. (Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120119/MM38856LOGO )In a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 15, 2012, Bridgepoint announced it had received a letter from the United States Department of Justice ("DOJ"), stating that the DOJ is investigating Bridgepoint over the compensation of its admissions staff. The investigation is a follow-up to a 2011 audit by the Education Department's Inspector General that found that Ashford University may have violated a federal ban on incentive compensation for college recruiters. The DOJ investigation comes three months after Ashford was denied initial accreditation by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges for not complying with certain standards, including spending more money on student recruitment than education. The accreditation denial was followed by increased scrutiny from Ashford's current accrediting body, the Higher Learning Commission. Request more information now by clicking here: www.faruqilaw.com/BPI. Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP is a national law firm which represents investors and individuals in class action and derivative litigation. The firm is focused on providing exemplary legal services in the areas of securities, shareholder, antitrust and consumer litigation, through all phases of litigation.

Call your parents to say thank you.
"Give a man a fish and you'll feed him for a day, teach a man how to fish and you'll feed him for a lifetime." An old saying that rings true to the present. Education, I believe, is the key to remove such dependency.
Our lives intersect in a way that we can learn from one another.
So far, it's been almost five years since I relocated. I have a bachelor's degree, student loan debt (but less than most people), and live with my wife and her unemployed mother in a 100-year-old house that is in constant need of repairs. Here are the things that my wife and I have thought about while we still struggle to make ends meet after we had both been flush.
It's the age old concept of "money can't buy love," and it's true. It can't.
As soon as I realized that what I have, in a third-world country, is something senseless, selfish and superficial, yes, but more so something praised for its self-discipline and commonalities with Mary-Kate Olsen, I stopped talking about it. I refuse to be lauded for this disorder.
You can't eat a soccer ball.
What you earn you have to earn by showing the world that you are strong, confident, intelligent, and important.
Most people would be offended by this.
What isn't covered in the articles on Venezuela on TC is the fact that President Maduro still has a very strong base of support and legitimacy among a broad swath of Venezuelan society.

Bulgaria, Croatia and Romania must address the rising number of injection drug users and sex workers in order to keep HIV prevalence from reaching levels found in other parts of Central and Eastern Europe, according to a World Bank report released on Thursday, U.N. Wire reports. The report, titled "HIV/AIDS in Southeastern Europe," found that despite the low number of HIV cases in the region -- Bulgaria has recorded 366 total cases, Croatia 341 and Romania 12,500 -- the presence of injection drugs, prostitution and highly mobile groups make the countries vulnerable to the spread of HIV, according to the report. Researchers believe that Romania has at least 10,000 injection drug users, Croatia has between 10,000 and 20,000 and Bulgaria has as many as 46,000. In addition, rising syphilis rates indicate that there has been an increase in unprotected sexual activity. In addition, about 80% of Romania's HIV-positive residents were infected as children through blood transfusions in the late 1980s and early 1990s, and as they approach adolescence, they could become sexually active, which Tom Novotny, the study's lead author, said "is cause for concern" (Hukill, U.N. Wire, 7/10). The report calls for widespread education programs, improved disease tracking, increased training among medical personnel and better public health infrastructures (Zwillich, Reuters Health, 7/10). The World Bank in September plans to release the results of an HIV/AIDS study of all of Central and Eastern Europe (U.N. Wire, 7/10).

MEA adspend to hit $10bn
15 November 2013
LONDON: Advertising expenditure in the Middle East and Africa (MEA) will top $10bn in the next five years, almost double the current figure, as a new study says better measurement techniques will boost the industry.
The Global TV and OTT Video Advertising report from specialist business intelligence firm Informa Telecoms & Media includes TV data for 69 countries with forecasts out to 2018.
generated TV advertising revenues
of $5.9bn in 2012, a figure that is expected to rise 6.8% to reach $6.3bn in 2013. Informa projected a compound annual growth rate of 10.2% for the years 2013 to 2018, by when the region's TV advertising revenues will amount to $10.2bn.
Adam Thomas, Informa's Media Research Manager, noted that most channel ratings measurement had been "very old school" in the region for many years.
"They are usually based on interviews and tend to inspire little confidence as to their reliability," he said. "At a very basic level, this makes it very difficult to assess whether advertising investment is reaching audience levels that justify the outlay."
But the situation was changing with, for example, the launch of sophisticated people-meter technology in the UAE, which Thomas described as a "positive step". As a result he expected that "this movement towards more advanced measurement will continue over the next few years and our forecasts assume revenues will grow as a result".
The first results of this new system showed that, as in other territories, reality TV was a popular choice for viewers, with talent show Arab Idol topping the UAE ratings.
Chris O'Hearn, general manager of the Emirates Media Measurement Company,
told Dubai website 7DAYS
that the data highlighted promising trends for advertisers such as a spike in mid-afternoon viewing after government workers and school children returned home.
He hoped that such nuanced data would encourage major media groups to embrace the new technology. As he observed: "In the US no-one asks 'what is the No.1 channel?'. They ask 'what is the No.1 channel for women aged between 25 and 45?'"

The Secret Shipwrecks of the Baltic Sea
The dark, cold Baltic Sea holds the remains of shipwrecks going back as far as 800 years. The sea's freshwater doesn't support the life forms that break down wood in salt water. In a photo collection at Environmental Graffiti we see a Russian team explore the shipwrecks of the Baltic, including a close look at an American-made ship that once belonged to Tsar Nicholas I, which sank in 1856.

Did you ever make a really huge mistake that you regretted like forever? Well, this is Tuckers problem. He thought he knew it all and had a grip on what was best for him in his life. He made the decision to turn away from Megan and go for the gusto and glory of stardom.
But as it turns out, Megan was the best thing that ever happened to him and life just wasnt the same after his wilful decision. So how can he atone for the past and prove to her that he is the one for her and will be devoted to her from now on? Wow, a really tall order for a man like Tucker. And the story that follows makes for an exciting, sexy read.
I liked Tucker. Hes gritty and real. Strong willed and sexy. He is not a cardboard character by any means. Megan is strong on the outside and vulnerable on the inside. Shes determined to live life by her own desires. Shes a little in conflict with herself because one of those desires just happens to center around the man who let her down in the past.
They share kinky desires but this isnt just another BDSM story with rigid rules and protocols. Tucker and Megan create their own games and their own fun and their coming together is smoking hot.
Wendi writes so well, she puts you right up there near the track and you can smell the fuel burning, hear the tires squealing and feel the vibrating pulse of the engines roaring. Check this story out. It will get your pulses racing.

Vermilion Parish Detention Center Flood Protection Project, Abbeville, Vermilion Parish, Louisiana (June 2012)
President Bush declared a major disaster for the State of Louisiana due to damages from Hurricane Katrina on August 29, 2005, authorizing FEMA to provide federal assistance in designated areas of Louisiana. FEMA is administering this disaster assistance pursuant to the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (Stafford Act), PL 93-288, as amended. Section 404 of the Stafford Act authorizes FEMA's Hazard Mitigation Program to provide funds to states and local governments to implement long-term hazard mitigation measures after a major disaster declaration. In accordance with 44 Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) for FEMA, Subpart B – Agency Implementing Procedures, Section 10.9, an Environmental Assessment (EA) was prepared pursuant to Section 102 of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, as implemented by the regulations promulgated by the President's Council on Environmental Quality (40 CFR Parts 1500-1508). The EA determines if the proposed construction of a concrete flood wall/earthen berm for flood protection at the Vermilion Parish Detention Center in Abbeville, Louisiana will have the potential for significant adverse effects on the quality of the human and natural environment. The results of this EA will be used to make a decision whether to initiate preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) or to prepare a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI).

in response to Angela WAngela, welcome to Apple Discussions from a fellow Texan.
Apparently your iMac has Tiger (OS X 10.4) & OS 9.2.2 (classic) installed on the same hard drive. This allows you to run OS X applications & classis applications.
The first part of your problem (grey screen saying to restart) is an indication of a Kernal Panic. Why, upon restart is goes to classic, I'm not sure. I have OS 9.2.2 & OS X on separate hard drive partitions, so I have not encountered this problem.
A KP is uaually caused by a hardware problem. To start troubleshooting, disconnect all external devices except your mouse & kbd.
May be a solution on one of these links.

Please visit the Application Requirements page on our website for your particular discipline (i.e., Cinematic Arts, Dance, Design Arts, Jazz, Music, Photography, Theater, Visual Arts, Voice, and Writing) for specific submission requirements.
How will my work be judged?
Your submission is evaluated on its own merit in a blind adjudication process by an independent panel of judges. No identifying information on submitted audition portfolio materials is permitted. The panel consists of highly accomplished master artists within each of the ten disciplines in the visual, literary, performing and design arts. Panelists adjudicate all submissions and identify the National Winners in each discipline. Select members of the adjudication panel also work with the Finalists during YoungArts Week and in the Regional Programs.
How many applications does YoungArts receive and how many winners are there?
Last year alone there were 786 Winners chosen from over 11,000 applications from across the nation. All YoungArts Winners join the ranks of our 20,000+ YoungArts alumni and go on to the top universities and conservatories across the country to become leading professionals in their fields.
Notification and Awards
What types of awards can I win?
National Winners
Every year the country's most promising young artists are selected from across the country as National Winners. Last year alone there were 786 Winners chosen from over 11,000 applications from across the nation. These Winners have the opportunity to attend YoungArts programs which include master classes with internationally renowned artists, workshops, interdisciplinary activities, performances and exhibitions. In addition, all YoungArts Winners join the ranks of our 20,000+ YoungArts alumni and go on to the top universities and conservatories across the country to become leading professionals in their fields.
Recognition Levels
Merit: Receive a Certificate of Achievement, a medallion, a Recommendation Letter and are invited to participate in regional programs. The winner's high school also receives an engraved plaque with the names of every winner from that school.
Honorable Mention: Receives the same benefits as a Merit winner plus a $250 monetary award.
Finalist: Receives the same benefits as a Merit winner plus an invitation to National YoungArts Week held in January for final adjudication to determine award designation (Level 3 $1000, Level 2 $1500, Level 1 $3000, Silver $5000, Gold $10,000).
Is my school recognized as well?
All high schools of winners at all levels will receive a congratulatory letter and award, engraved with winners' names, for display in the school. These school awards are sent out during the month of May.
What is PSA (U.S. Presidential Scholar in the Arts) and how does it relate to YoungArts?
U.S. Presidential Scholars in the Arts (PSA) is the arts portion of the U.S. Presidential Scholars program*. Administered by the U.S. Department of Education, the U.S. Scholars program celebrates 141 outstanding high school seniors each June in Washington, DC during National Recognition Week, which includes a Medallion Ceremony and visit to the White House.
YoungArts is the exclusive pathway to the U.S. Presidential Scholars in the Arts, the nation's highest honor for artistically talented high school seniors. Each year, up to 60 YoungArts Winners who attend National YoungArts Week (in January) are nominated to the Presidential Scholars Commission. From that pool, as many as 20 of those YoungArts Winners are selected as arts scholars. The performing arts winners create a performance-based salute to all of the Scholars at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, and the visual and literary artists exhibit their work at one of the Smithsonian art museums.
If you are chosen to participate in National YoungArts Week before you meet the grade level requirement for nomination, you will have the opportunity for consideration in the year you become a graduating high school senior. At that time, you will present updated portfolio/audition materials to and be interviewed by the current year's panel. Performance disciplines will present their updated materials live during the adjudication process for the panel. To be considered for nomination by the panel in the year that you are eligible, you must also meet the U.S. Presidential Scholars Program GPA and citizenship requirements.
*For further information on the U.S. Presidential Scholar Program including application guidelines, academic requirements, etc., please visit their website (http://www2.ed.gov/programs/psp).
Is it possible to be a winner in more than one discipline or more than one category?
Yes. The panel of judges may select Winners to be awarded for multiple levels in multiple disciplines and categories.
If you are chosen as a National Winner in more than one discipline or category, and you are invited to a YoungArts Program, you will be asked to choose one to participate in during that program. YoungArts will however recognize you in all disciplines and categories for which you were selected as a National Winner.
Once you have selected the discipline or category that you will be participating in for YoungArts Week, you will be honored in the other discipline or category with a "Finalist Award" and will receive a monetary award in the amount of $500.
When are award checks mailed?
All checks will be mailed in May of 2016.
Anyone receiving monetary award from the National YoungArts Foundation must complete and submit a W-9 to the YoungArts office. No monies can be issued without this completed document. The W-9 form must be filled out with the winner's information in order for the award(s) to be issued. There are no exceptions to this.
YoungArts Student List Service
All applicants can choose to be placed on the Student List Service (SLS) which provides colleges, universities, conservatories, summer arts programs and outside scholarship awarding organizations discipline specific student contact information as well as the ability to view submitted audition portfolio materials. As a result of participation in the SLS, YoungArts applicants and winners have received more than $150,000,000 in scholarships awards from the top colleges, universities and conservatories across the United States.
YoungArts Programs
What are the programs that YoungArts offers to its Winners?
YoungArts Winners have the opportunity to participate in YoungArts Week (Finalists) and YoungArts Regional Programs (All Winners). YoungArts Program participants enjoy the rare opportunity to take master classes and interdisciplinary workshops from world-renowned artists, such as Mikhail Baryshnikov, Bill T. Jones, Marina Abramović, Frank Gehry, Wynton Marsalis, Plácido Domingo, James Rosenquist and other masters in a variety of artistic disciplines. They are also given the opportunity to perform and exhibit their works at cultural venues in each program city.
What is YoungArts Week?
Our National YoungArts Finalists, spanning ten disciplines, converge in Miami for YoungArts Week held each January. Finalists continue to be adjudicated during YoungArts Week by participating in master classes, performances, exhibitions, and interdisciplinary sessions. Finalists who are graduating high school seniors also have the opportunity to be nominated by YoungArts to the U.S. Presidential Scholars Commission.
What is a YoungArts Regional Program and where are they located?
Each YoungArts program is truly a life changing experience. These programs are a time for young artists to share in the creative energy of their peers; perform/exhibit their work; and to learn from renowned master artists.
Inspired by the transformative experiences offered during National YoungArts Week, Regional Programs are designed to offer the YoungArts experience to as many Winners as possible from an ever-growing list of locations. Presently, our Regional Programs are YoungArts Miami, YoungArts New York, and YoungArts Los Angeles. Winners receive detailed information about these programs in their award notification email.
What is a YoungArts Alumnus/a?
Since 1981, YoungArts Alumni are the gifted young artists who have applied and been chosen as National Winners. YoungArts Alumni go on to the top colleges, universities and conservatories across the country and become leading professionals in their fields. From Juilliard to Harvard, New York City Ballet and Alvin Ailey Dance Company to the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, YoungArts Alumni are a strong presence in the arts world and are creative thinkers in the business and technology sectors. Alumni become principal dancers in major companies, members of prominent orchestras, recognizable faces on stage and screen, accomplished authors and respected visual artists. They hold leadership positions across the nation, and bring the same dedication and enthusiastic work ethic to their careers that they invested with YoungArts.
What is the YoungArts Alumni Association?
The YoungArts Alumni Association creates a community for the 20,000+ YoungArts Alumni in order to assist and support them in their educational, artistic and professional development.
All Winners automatically become YoungArts Alumni and therefore members of the Alumni Association.
What are the benefits of being a YoungArts Alumnus/a?
YoungArts always looks for new and different ways to maintain a relationship with our Alumni by integrating them into our national and regional programs and events. We also support Alumni projects and seek ways to promote their artistic ideas.
Benefits of being a YoungArts Alumnus/a include access to the top colleges, universities and conservatories and scholarships. YoungArts has facilitated more than $150 million in scholarships for our winners at the nation's leading colleges, universities and conservatories. In fact, a recent survey shows that in the class of 2012, a total of $12.4 million in scholarship dollars were awarded to alumni because of their YoungArts designation.
YoungArts utilizes Alumni in events, performances and exhibitions across the nation. Alumni are also privy to special partnerships that include an ever-growing list of internship positions and fellowships including those at Metropolitan Museum of Art, American Ballet Theater and Hunter College Art Galleries (NYC). For more information, see our full list of alumni opportunities, here.

January 2008
Apparently the UK government are revisiting the idea of net censorship, in the context of anti-terrorism.
UK Home Secretary Jacqui Smith as reported in the "Guardian, Government targets extremist websites":
Speaking to the BBC's Radio 4 Today programme before her speech, Smith said there were specific examples of websites that "clearly fall under the category of gratifying terrorism". "There is growing evidence people may be using the internet both to spread messages and to plan specifically for terrorism," she said. "That is why, as well as changing the law to make sure we can tackle that, there is more we need to do to show the internet is not a no-go area as far as tackling terrorism is concerned."
This could go really wrong, really fast. Will we be allowed to read Bin Laden texts online? Hitler, Stalin? Talk to people who sympathise with organizations deemed terroristic? Who live in countries in the 'axis of evil'? Doubtless the first sites to be targetted will be the most outrageous, but we're on a slippery slope here.
It's pretty much impossible to stop the online radicalisation of angry young men. But driving that process underground, and criminalising anyone on the fringes of the scene, will make it all the harder for calm voices and nuanced opinions to be heard. 'Us and them' is exactly what we don't need right now.

OpenID and Wireless sharing
via Makenshi in #openid chat on Freenode IRC:
<Makenshi>: I found a wireless captive portal solution that supports openid.
With the newest release of CoovaAP, some new features in Chilli are demonstrated in combination with RADIUS to allow OpenID based authentication. (coova.org)
I'm happy to see this. It's very close to some ideas I was discussing with Schuyler Earle and Jo Walsh some years ago around NoCatAuth, FOAF and community wireless. Some semweb stories may yet come to life.
At the moment, the options available for wireless 'net sharing are typically: let everyone in, have a widely known secret for accessing your network, or let more or less nobody in without individually approving them. Although the likes of Bruce Schneier argue the merits of open wireless, most 802.11 kit now comes out of the box closed by default, and usually stay that way. Having a standards-based and decentralised way of saying "you can use my network, but only if you login with some identifiable public persona first" would be interesting.
OpenID takes away a significant part of the problem space, allowing experimentation with a whole range of socially oriented policies on top. Doubtless there are legal risks, big privacy issues, and lurking security concerns. But there is also potential for humanising interactions that are currently rather anonymous. In the city I live in, Bristol, there's a community wireless effort, Bristol Wireless, as well as wireless Internet in countless local cafes. Plus commercial hotspots and whatever the city council are up to. Currently these are fragmented, and offer a variety of approaches. Could OpenID offer a common approach for Bristolians to connect? I like the idea that (for those that choose to 'go public') OpenIDs could link scattered presence across community sites. Having OpenID-based login used eg. for cafe-based access could be a nice step in that direction. But would people trust their local cafe to know what they're doing online any more than they trust Google? Should they?
OpenSocial API roadmap
From the opensocial-api group, an OpenSocial Javascript API priorities document.
"This page contains the updated priorities (in draft) for the next iteration (version 0.7) of the OpenSocial JavaScript API."
Flickr (Yahoo) upcoming support for OpenID
According to Simon Willison, Flickr look set to support OpenID by allowing your photostream URL (eg. for me, http://www.flickr.com/photos/danbri/) to serve as an OpenID, ie. something you can type wherever you see "login using OpenID" and be bounced to Flickr/Yahoo to provide credentials instead of remembering yet another password. This is rather good news.
For the portability-minded, it's worth remembering that OpenID lets you put markup in your own Web page to devolve to such services. So my main OpenID is "danbri.org" , which is a document I control, on a domain that I own. In the HTML header I have the following markup:
<link rel="meta" type="application/rdf+xml" title="FOAF" href="http://danbri.org/foaf.rdf" />
<link rel="openid.server" href="http://www.livejournal.com/openid/server.bml" />
<link rel="openid.delegate" href="http://danbri.livejournal.com/" />
…which is enough to defer the details of being an OpenID provider to LiveJournal (thanks, LiveJournal!). Flickr are about to join the group of sites you can use in this way, it seems.
As an aside, this means that the security of our own websites becomes yet more important. Last summer, DreamHost (my webhosting provider) were compromised, and my own homepage was briefly decorated with viagra spam. Fortunately they didn't touch seem to touch the OpenID markup, but you can see the risk. That's the price of portability here. As Simon points out, we'll probably all have several active OpenIDs, and there's no need to host your own, just as there's no need for people who want to publish online to buy and host their own domains or HTML sites.
The Flickr implementation, coupled with their existing API, means we could all offer things like "log into my personal site for family (or friends)" and defer buddylist – and FOAF – management to the well-designed Flickr site, assuming all your friends or family have Flickr accounts. Implementing this in a way that works with other providers (eg. LJ) is left as an excercise for the reader ;)
Bouncin' around
A couple weeks ago, in a pathetic and greedsome bid to monetize you all, I added Google Adsense ads to this blog. Needless to say, the jaded foaftards who read this thing aren't the kind to go all clicky-buyey on adverts. When I finally earn a whole dollar, I'll celebrate by having it converted to hard currency and spend it on, er I dunno, charity. Meanwhile, the ad targetting engine is entertaining if nothing else. I'll leave the thing running on archive pages, but it should be gone from the main page now.
Thanks to Bob DuCharme for pointing out that I'm apparently now endorsing rebounders.com, your one stop solution for post-breakup adult dating social networking. Thanks, Google. Maybe they caught me looking at the Internet Dating Conference website (they're still looking for speakers btw)? Well I think not – I've decided that the ad targetting reflects more on their knowledge of danbri.org's readership than on its author. There's some logic to that, so thanks everyone…
Seriously, I am really suprised at how weak the Adsense targetting is. Google too often are treated as infallible gods, but the ad targetting I've seen so far feels like it's done with grep. But I don't have anything better right now, so I should shut up with the complaining. Here's that ad again for those that missed it.
Open social networks: bring back Iran
Three years ago, we lost Iran from Internet community. I simplify somewhat, but forgivably. Many Iranian ISPs cut off access to blogs and social networking sites, on government order. At the time, Iran was one of the most active nations on Orkut; and Orkut was the network of choice, faster than the then-fading Friendster, but not yet fully eclipsed by MySpace. It provided a historically unprecedented chance for young people from Iran, USA, Europe and the world to hang out together in an online community. But when Orkut was blocked at the ISP level in Iran, pretty much nobody in the English-speaking blog-tech-pundit scene seemed to even notice. This continues to bug me. Web technologists apparantly care collectively more about freeing Robert Scoble's addressbook from Facebook, than about the real potential for unmediated, uncensored, global online community.
Most folk in the US will never visit Iran, and vice-versa. And the press and government in both states are engaged in scary levels of sabre-rattling and demonisation. For me, one of the big motivations for working (through FOAF, SPARQL, XMPP and other technologies) on social networking interop, is so young people in the future can grow up naturally having friends in distant nations, regardless of whether their government thinks that's a priority. If hundreds of blog posts can be written about the good Mr Scoble's addressbook portability situation, why are thousands of posts not being written about the need for social networking tools to connect people regardless of nationality and national firewalls?
Some things are too important to leave to governments…
Update: a few hours after writing this, things get hairy in Hormuz. Oof…
Imagemap magic
I've always found HTML imagemaps to be a curiously neglected technology. They seem somehow to evoke the Web of the mid-to-late 90s, to be terribly '1.0'. But there's glue in the old horse yet…
A client-side HTML imagemap lets you associate links (and via Javascript, behaviour) with regions of an image. As such, they're a form of image metadata that can have applications including image search, Web accessibility and social networking. They're also a poor cousin to the Web's new vector image format, SVG. This morning I dug out some old work on this (much of which from Max, Libby, Jim all of whom btw are currently working at Joost; as am I, albeit part-time).
The first hurdle you hit when you want to play with HTML imagemaps is finding an editor that produces them. The fact that my blog post asking for MacOSX HTML imagemap editors is now top Google hit for "MacOSX HTML imagemap" pretty much says it all. Eventually I found (and paid for) one called YokMak that seems OK.
So the first experiment here, was to take a picture (of me) and make a simple HTML imagemap.
As a step towards treating this as re-usable metadata, here's imagemap2svg.xslt from Max back in 2002. The results of running it with xsltproc are online: _output.svg (you need an SVG-happy browser). Firefox, Safari and Opera seem more or less happy with it (ie. they show the selected area against a pink background). This shows that imagemap data can be freed from the clutches of HTML, and repurposed. You can do similar things server-side using Apache Batik, a Java SVG toolkit. There are still a few 2002 examples floating around, showing how bits of the image can be described in RDF that includes imagemap info, and then manipulated using SVG tools driven from metadata.
Once we have this ability to pick out a region of an image (eg. photo) and tag it, it opens up a few fun directions. In the FOAF scene a few years ago, we had fun using RDF to tag image region parts with information about the things they depicted. But we didn't really get into questions of surface-syntax, ie. how to maker rich claims about the image area directly within the HTML markup. These days, some combination of RDFa or microformats would probably be the thing to use (or perhaps GRDDL). I've sent mail to the RDFa group looking for help with this (see that message for various further related-work links too).
Specifically, I'd love to have some clean HTML markup that said, not just "this area of the photo is associated with the URI http://danbri.org/", but "this area is the Person whose openid is danbri.org, … and this area depicts the thing that is the primary topic of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eiffel_Tower". If we had this, I think we'd have some nice tools for finding images, for explaining images to people who can't see them, and for connecting people and social networks through codepiction.
