I'm glad you enjoy the picture.
1. The woman is my friend and coworker, India Branker. See attached for
another recent image of her.
2. She wants you to be quiet because you are making too damn much noise.

3. It was taken as part of the "Silence" Challenge at DPChallenge.com
<http://www.dpchallenge.com/challenge_results.php?CHALLENGE_ID=194>. I
actually preferred the image that you have but was unable to enter it as
it violated the basic editting rules of the challenge. My actual entry
fared rather poorly at 175 out of 312 entries.
