TWIP (39) permalink
Photo by Scott Bourne You can’t always carry a tripod. Sometimes, a monopod will do. Monopods (also called unipods) are usually lighter and smaller than tripods, but don’t offer the same level of stability. Monopods do offer some obvious advantages. They are less expensive than tripods and they are light enough to carry almost anywhere. They allow you to compose and shoot almost as fast as you would if you were hand-holding, where tripods require ...Shared by cgsheldon (159) Mathew (37)Contribute comment - First GameFly casting call in LA next Tuesday (1)

Mercs 2 gas giveaway causes 'chaos' in London (3)

Joystiq (524) permalink
Filed under: Culture While a similar publicity stunt in LA went off with relatively little drama, it appears the Mercenaries 2 petrol giveaway in London was "irresponsible and dangerous," according to local residents. The BBC reports that traffic was gridlocked as drivers waited to get their £40-worth ($70) of gratis gas. The promotion started at 6:30AM and ran until police apparently shut it down. Local residents were quite upset about the traffic and honking the ...Contribute comment - Norway Post's new logo: Pok????ball or Marathon symbol variation? (1)

New tech puts ESPN anchors on video game gridiron (5)
onFiled under: Culture, Simulations, Sports Don't be surprised if this Sunday's edition of ESPN's Sunday NFL Countdown looks a bit more like a game of Madden. According to a New York Times report, the Disney-owned sports network will use the "EA Sports Virtual Playbook" and a special studio and camera setup to allow "both real and virtual people move around the ESPN set to demonstrate plays and possible situations." It sure sounds a lot simpler ...Contribute comment

Groundbreaking Energy Ball Wind Turbine for Home (46)
on
Inhabitat (223) permalink
Swedish company Home Energy recently revealed an innovative wind turbine that spins in a spherical formation. Eschewing traditional rotors for a sleek orb structure, this beautiful rethinking of conventional wind turbine design utilizes the Venturi principle, which funnels wind within the turbine’s blades. The resulting spherical wind turbine features increased efficiency and lower noise levels - making it ideal for small scale energy needs such as personal home use. Best of all it’s called the ...Shared by Alex Dumitru (374) Alexander13 (493) Allan (14) Ananya Walia (771) Andrea Lazzari (6) Andrew the Organic Maven (20) Azeem (46) Babychen Mathew (388) Chris Johnson (5) Chuck Grohowski (27) David (64) Doug Adams (129) erbianchi (27) Erwin Tang Yew Hon (58) Evelien (10) George Brickner (78) hallie (22) Haris Nadeem (26) Jason Hoch (30) Javed (150) John Jorgensen (45) Jordan (411) Jorge (30) Kuanyin (15) LauraLee (214) Leena (1187) Lester (60) LUCCHINA (446) Mathew (37) mattress (9) Meise (4) Mike Perkins (90) MikeonTV (69) Nick Cobb (497) Nikollas Ordway (75) Nishith Prabhakar (43) Piyush Aryan (24) Rami Taibah (533) Ritu (754) Shaun Coates (9) th13rteen (159) Trevor Wermund (166) Trisha (18) twotwo (14) w0lfh0und (782) Will (10)- Will said: Clever, a spherical turbine.

One of the odd bits of a wedding photographer's schedule is that, in a full day of shooting, you often have a lot more time to shoot the bride getting hair and make-up done than, say, the entire ceremony. So anything you can do to make those shots better or a little different is welcome. While the shot at right is nothing truly ground-breaking, there is one thing interesting about it -- it's from the ...Shared by Mathew (37) mjs (13)Contribute comment -

My mouse problem seems pretty rare, a synaptic issue only with certain computers, and my only other complaint is a compatibility issue with Executor that doesn't seem to be a problem with Launchy. In fact, I recommend it.
