Lowest Tomato-meter rating ever. Makes me almost want to see it.
Shure E3C headphones,
on sale for $119 (you have to add the item to your cart to see the discount). These are possibly the best light-weight earphones in the world. I've got the E2C headphones, and I love 'em to death. The E3c is better.
Yay, it's time for
SF IndieFest again! I took one look at
this movie, and immediately bought myself a festival pass.
Ah, now this is the notebook of my dreams:

Most important
NEWS of the day. Should be in 24-Font NY Times Headline across the top.
Perhaps my next laptop?
"Toshiba P35-S6292" .. available at CostCo, of all places?
I caught
The Bright River last night, and I have to say this is far and away the best independent theater production I've seen, ever. The production consists of four performers/musicians on stage, giving everything they've got for 90 non-stop minutes. It's a production of the "Travelling Jewish Theater," so keep an eye out for it drifting through a theater near you.
Elements of Dante's Inferno, Kabbalah mythology, traditional klezmer, jazz, beatboxing, oral histories, commentary on Iraq, improvisation -- except that it all works. Stopping just shy of going over the top, sensible enough to avoid patronizing cliches, it still manages to feel raw, emotional, involving. The ending left the audience in shocked silence -- followed by the only standing ovation where I actually felt the performers had earned it.
Good stuff.
This device should be called
SenSamSung. Shake your
Cellphone but the PR image came from Mirror World.
Talking about small Cameras; this is
as tiny as it gets:
Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T1 or 11
Great LCD sceen size. Negatives; non-std batteries & Memory Stick.
Volunteersrilanka.org: something I'm daring myself to do. I figure I can probably take a month or two off between jobs.
Panasonic Lumix DMX-FX10 looks good, too (12x optical zoom, image stabilisation, F2.8, $373). Hmm.
I'm struggling to make music while my aquaintance Naru (aka
chiral) cranks out a song a week.
Alas, my trusty Canon A70, which weathered three trips to Burning Man, was finally done in by the damp of the recent rainstorm, so now I'm looking at replacing my digital camera in time for our trip to Italy. The A70 was a nearly perfect camera. I'm hoping to find a camera similar to it, but with better low-light performance, better optical zoom, faster operation, and (maybe) image stabilisation. 3 megapixel resolution is sufficient for my needs. I'm trying to keep cost below $500. I'm considering:
Advice?
Hippo & Tortoise cannot get
their story right. After surviving the Tsunami, I had to hide in this dried-up water hole...
So why not use
THIS for planning Tsunami-hardened landuse in the Bay Area?
This includes judicious placement of access roads, emergency centers, etc.
Some places I'm sending my resume:
UPEK,
Stream Processors, and
Dolby.
Will Eisner died yesterday, but his last work,
"Plot : The Secret Story of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion" will be out this May. It's his final gift in his life-long efforts to
combat anti-semitism.
Burning Man tickets go on sale today? Am I really going again this year? Why? Well, I might as well get my fool ass a ticket.
I'm not entirely sure what to make of this, but
Jew School seems to be a progressive pro-Jewish/Zionist webblog on the hip-hop tip, yo.
