There was a 5.5 earthquake in China, according to CNN.
It was a 5.7 earthquake in China.
I'm a lumberjack and I'm okay...

That's a pretty stiff temblor - 5.7.

I'll probably go for an early supper soon.

My nextdoor neighbor is having a huge old oak tree taken down; it was about eight stories high before it died this summer. Watching the guys from the tree company taking it down in sections has been fascinating. They've now got it down to about three stories. Lots of oak firewood being burned on my street this winter!!
OOO! I just sold 2 Condi for prez beer steins an 2 Laura Bush for Prez shirts. I luv it when Repugs send me money!!!!
Hey DWD!
Cold enough for you?
Well, the good news is that I've been able to resist buying my new camera so far.

Coulter has gotten about all the mileage she's going to out of her "wingnut woman" schtick. Now she
has to keep coming up with more and more outrageous things to say, or people will lose interest. I doubt she believes most of the crap she spews any more than Rush does--if it sells hemorrhoid cream and Stairmasters, she'll say it.
What camera are you getting?
Nikon D200.
I hope. Depends on funds availability, and high-ISO performance (I read something somewhere where the number of CCD sensors was a concern for that).
Vicki, a pretty nice day here except for the foot or so of snow that I (and me boys) just removed from the driveway. Nice to have one back from college and one from Florida. (What a bummer for him. We pick him up at the airport and hand him a shovel)

I let the shoveling go. With the rain and 50 degree temps the next few days, it'll all be melted.
We still need to rake!

We've had 4 trees taken down in the last year from lightening strikes. 3 were huge. So sad to see those big pines die, but the wood peckers love it.
Insurance pays $250 a tree, no questions asked, which pretty much covers it.

firedoglake has an interesting post about the Scanlon investigation:
Clearly, Santa has decided that I have been a very good girl this year. Thw WaPo is reporting that Tom Delay, Conrad Burns, and John Doolittle, among many others, are under increased scrutiny, along with members of the Administration.
The greed gets them in the end, but it takes so long.

I saw the Arthur movie a while back. I read a synopsis of it and the folks that made it were trying to do a "historical" take on Arthur and remove the mythological aspect of the story.
I love the myth, but I quite liked the movie.
I agree on Knightley's Guinnivere.
I also liked Lancelot's line about him visiting Arthur and his wife after they all got out of the Roman army and Arthur having the good fortune of having all his kids look like Lancelot.

Dude, amortize out the D70 a bit longer. I haven't even had mine for two years yet!

It's pretty much going to come down to when I feel like I have enough money saved up. Maybe a nice birthday present for myself or something. I definitely want the 18-200 VR zoom as soon as it's out, though.
BTW, I'm working on a deal with NTodd's Pa to give him my current printer in exchange for his "investment" in a large format HP or Canon. More to come...
Define "large format". Also, HPs are supposed to be the best for B&W prints, which is why I eventually went with the 8750.
I went from 22F last night, and having my scrotum gently spatula'd off the wrought iron chair outside my landlord's house, to 68F today, short sleeves and iced tea...

ReddHedd thinks that Scalon's case will be "the straw that breaks the camel's back for a lot of law makers."
Scanlon flipping opens the door wide to the possibility of a lot of felony prosecutions, by providing the investigators a direct link and testimony on pre-legislation deals, bribes and other improper conduct.

I'd love a little 68 degree action. Here in NE MD, it's 42 and has been colder than a well digger's ass here for several days.
I've got a large format (13x infinity) edge to edge Epson Photo 1280. Not bad- get's pretty crisp images, color tuning can be a pain in the ass! And if the heads are not clean, banding occurs more often than I like.

I liked the R1800 (IIRC), similar size, but the prospect of losing the whole $500 printer to a clogged head was more than I could take.
I do have some quibbles with the 8750, but they're more to do with the print software for it, which is just awful.

Depends on which printer I can con the old man into. At least twice as large as the HP Photosmart series (I've got the 8400), but if I go with one of the Epsons (I accidentally typed Canon above), it might be larger and accept roll paper, not to mention be capable of giclee output.

The biggest problem I've had with digital is burnt pixels. I had to return my Canon XL1-S for repairs the same day I got it. Burnt Pixels. Same with the digital camera I use (Nikon 5700) AND with my Mac laptop.

diesel what on earth are burnt pixels? I have used and abused Macs and Nikons intensely and never heard the term!
as an old nikon guy, i hate to say it, but you shouda gone with the cannon. i can't afford this digital crap, though i've been researching. but since you are nikon guys. a great pro level camera, which takes nikon lenses, is the fuji fine pix S3. and it's half the price of the nikon pro level cameras. (2100-2500$)
i am currently debating with my self about the cannon 20D or the fine pix (which is significant, because of the lenses, and upgrading latter) i'd definitely go with the fuji if my nikon lenses were up to date.
also if you can afford it, as much as possible avoid zooms. they don't have the clarity of fixed lenses. some are better than others, but you already knew that.

You *have* to buy 2 cameras a year? How terrible! I got the impression there wasn't a whole lot of difference between the 50s and 70s, just some feature/functionality stuff.
iirc, lenses from 35 mm cameras ain't compatable with digital, right? couldn't they design them so they were?
They are, but there's a multiplication factor because of the smaller sensor size. So if I get the 18-200 zoom lens, it's actually the equivalent of a 24-300 for a 35mm camera.
If any of you wants to explain this to me, I'd appreciate it. I guess I don't understand how troop withdrawals work. If you don't have enough troops, what do you do? Don't we get to a point where we have to draft people? If you draft people it takes time to train them.

iirc, lenses from 35 mm cameras ain't compatable with digital, right? couldn't they design them so they were?
Depends on the maker. The lenses from my very old hand-me-down AE-1 aren't, but my other film camera is an EOS canon, so all of my EOS and EF lenses work on both it AND the digital.
Which is most excellent.

Epson might not be so bad for you, since you'll presumably be using it enough to keep the heads from drying out, but I know if I had one the heads would be dried and clogged *right now*.
I had good luck with the Epson I used before the Photosmart. I'm actually impressed with both vendors--my friend flameape is more keen to go Epson, but that's mostly because he's worked with them more than the HPs.
Giclee?
Expensive archival shit. I'm thinking of not only charging a premium for our own products in that format, but also offering services to visual artists who can't afford to invest in their own high-end printer. There's a lot of local demand for sure, and from my recon, national as well.

True, and zoom lenses are slower.
But there are times when you need the flexibility because there just isn't time to change your lens that quickly.

Not really true. The Nikon and Canon digitals will work with legacy lenses. The old ones don't have the "CPU features", but will fit the standard SLR body of both the analog and digital models.

It basically depends on the age and make of the camera and the lenses. Might want to do some research on the particulars. Generally speaking, they at least have to be for the same type of camera, as, say, Nikon & Canon have different sized lenses.
The old ones don't have the "CPU features", but will fit the standard SLR body of both the analog and digital models.
The older lenses don't support TTL.

"Bush must have a plan to save his ass before the midterm elections. What is it?"
armeggedon followed by the rapture.
honest to god, that's his plan.
shawk-
Terrorist attack in NYC.
Tactical nuclear weapons used in Syria and Iran.
Resign.
Move to the Hague
I believe that item 1 and item 2 are Bush's agenda. What I can't understand is how the neocons are allowing bush to ruin their plan for a 1000 reich. I think that they will find a face-saving way for Bush to resign. But when?
bush - retire
Yes, it did. I am just funnin'. We have friends that live in Corpus Christi that called the other night from an oyster bar and were in shorts and flip-flops. It was 28 degrees here.
It was cool enough this morning for me to put on a sweater to go over to the nursery. By the time I'd finished with them I realised that everybody else around were wearing shorts and t-shirts - altho some people had these Sandy Claws hats to signify solidarity with the rest of the country's time...
Where's the crazy, left-wing equivalent of Coulter? Y'know, how come there's no incendiary, inflammatory below-the-belt Liberal on all the pundit shows?
I'd love just once for someone to get on one of these pundit shows and say, "Shut the fuck up, Coulter, you fucking Nazi cunt, before I come over there and kick you in the balls." She gets treated with kid gloves.

The older lenses don't support TTL.
Yeah, that's what I mean: none of the fancy features will work with the old lenses, but hey, you've got a sunk investment, at least you can still use 'em!
Well, that is the nicest thing I have read all day.
They're good peeps, despite all the hell I've given them for 36 years.
" Generally speaking, they at least have to be for the same type of camera, as, say, Nikon & Canon have different sized lenses."
thanks...I have no idea about this stuff...my 35 mm is a Minolta X-GM the old lady bought me, and the macro lens I use a lot is a minolta 50mm 1:35
i really don't have a reason or $ to upgrade from my 4 mpix coolpix, but that hasn't stopped me from buying shit in the past....
"They are, but there's a multiplication factor because of the smaller sensor size. So if I get the 18-200 zoom lens, it's actually the equivalent of a 24-300 for a 35mm camera.

Good afternoon, peeps! What's the good word?
four legs good: That's fucked up.
Yes, it is. It's the grunts' responsibility (during 12 hrs. of non-stop calls) to verify the accuracy of the "timecard" app (keyed off the login time on the phone), while having no ability to edit the app's numbers, etc., and to send an e-mail to the Spherion idiots to let them know about innaccuracies -- which I have somehow managed to do, each time (often, by staying off-the-clock in order to verify and do the e-mailing).
My manager said he didn't ever want to hear a complaint without a solution. Our entire team got dinged a couple of weeks ago because of call auditing -- we apparently weren't reading the new service script... which we never received. I told the manager, look -- the supposedly integrated software we use doesn't contain this language -- why is that? I mean, the whole fuckin' thing is done in Micro$oft's .NET framework, and the text of the scripts is simple HTML or XML (which I can do in my sleep). I offered to help the developers get it implemented, and the manager says, "no way -- it takes an act of Congress." I told him that I was sending him an e-mail, outlining the complaint and solution, regardless.
I figure I needn't be the only one expected to do the job right.

You might have to revise the articles of incorporation...they prolly say things like 'educational and research purposes' and nothing about healthcare.
You should look into that.
bo - It really depends on where you are. If your people have been in much the same place for a great length of time, then your best local donation group is going to be whoever the Historical Society is - assuming it's legit and functional. After that, you should take a look around at City respositories - some concentrate on local history quite heavily - and at state level archives. For example, a dear friend of mine who was old Arizona was able to donate her son's groundbreaking photography to the UofA - on the basis of his excellence and on the family location. State historical societies are very good at accepting material and taking good care of it, despite being under more or less constant financial duress. Whichever you choose tho, you should make sure that the matter is entirely businesslike. Get things appraised - you'll be able to find an independent appraiser thru your local reference librarian. Make the proper legal arrangements.
I told the manager, look -- the supposedly integrated software we use doesn't contain this language -- why is that? I mean, the whole fuckin' thing is done in Micro$oft's .NET framework, and the text of the scripts is simple HTML or XML (which I can do in my sleep).

We better all get used to decisions like that. If there's one thing that'll happen for sure when we finally have national health insurance, its that a lot of end-of-life care we've taken for granted will not be available...or will only be available if you can pay for it. Healthcare is already about 17% of GDP...and that's with 15% of the population uninsured. It's gonna cost a lot of money to get them insured. Rationing will happen.

Eeewww.
I prefer to shoot with available light.
I shot many many weddings, video and pictures. The flash is mandatory. But there are good tricks you can use to stop the flattening that happens with an on-camera flash. Redirecting flash with white cover stock paper for instance.
But handheld flashes rule. It's a whole extra dimension to artist expression.

I generally agree with you, but lately the feeding has gotten so bad, the threads are unreadable.
John Lennon knew nothing at all about recording technology.
Those musicians who believe they're a valued part of society should take a lesson from the sinking of the Titanic. The musicians on board were forced -- at gunpoint -- to continue playing while the ship was sinking. After the rising water shorted out their sound system, and silenced their electronical guitars, they were shot in the head and fed to the hammerhead sharks wich were circling the ship.
So all you musicians should disembark from your high horses.

Given a good ear innocence of notation isn't fatal in a pop or jazz musician. Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, anyone who was blind, didn't use it. It's when you have to reproduce exactly the notes the composer intended or to convey those to someone else that you need notation.
Never hurts to learn it, though.

Azerbaijan police charge election protest
BAKU (AFP) - Police used water cannons and tear gas to disperse thousands of demonstrators protesting against results of parliamentary elections won in a landslide by President Ilham Aliyev's ruling party.
Hundreds of police mounted a baton charge and fired tear gas at the retreating crowd, before using truncheons and two water cannons against the protestors as they fled into nearby streets of the capital, Baku.
Up to 10,000 people had gathered in the city's Victory Square days after election officials confirmed the victory of Aliyev's party.
The United States embassy condemned the police action, saying: "We deplore the unjustified and unprovoked use of force against citizens peacefully exercising their right to freedom of assembly."

Hundreds cross through Gaza terminal
Palestinians asserted control for the first time over an international frontier as hundreds of Gazans moved across a newly opened terminal at Rafah into neighbouring Egypt.
Travellers on Saturday exchanged embraces and some flashed victory signs, happy to be freer to travel and to be processed by Palestinian police rather than Israeli soldiers who occupied the Gaza Strip for 38 years before they withdrew in September.
"I feel free and happy as a bird with 10 wings," said Jihad Zanoun, 29, the first Palestinian to have his passport stamped at the Rafah terminal formally opened a day earlier. Israel had barred Zanoun from leaving Gaza for three years, citing security concerns.

Oxfam: Free trade may drain Arabs
Oxfam, the global anti-poverty organisation, has cautioned the EU against seeking rapid free trade in agriculture with Arab nations around the Mediterranean, saying it will drive people there deeper into poverty.
Oxfam said on Saturday that Europe must not force Mediterranean countries to open their agricultural markets too fast under any Euro-Mediterranean free trade agreement but urged them to accept more goods from northern Africa and the Middle East.
The group staged a small protest in downtown Barcelona early on Saturday, depicting a scene in which a few activists dressed like African farmers are stopped by a European Union (EU) customs barrier.

Video prompts inquiry into 'abuse' of detainee
Malaysian officials scrambled to repair the nation's image yesterday after it was tarnished by a minute-long video clip showing a naked woman of Chinese origin being compelled to do squats while holding her ears in front of an ethnic Malay policewoman.
The police are investigating the grainy footage that looks like it was shot in a police station, and prime minister Abdullah Badawi insisted there should be no cover-up if the mobile phone recording is found to be authentic.
Chinese women have made many complaints about their treatment while in detention.

a lady up there has had trouble getting handyfolk to either show up or finish their jobs (she's not from around here)...
so i said i'd drive up next week and take a look around and fix a couple of things for her...
i said i'd normally not charge for an estimate, but the mileage (about 100 mi, one way), but i'd have to charge for gas...
she was fine with it...
so i'll get paid to drive up to my old stomping grounds, mebbe stop in at the old homestead (if anybody's there; it's out of the family now) in nambe...i'll take a dog or two...

Lucas really effed up the prequels, IMHO. While a lot of the dialogue, story line, etc in the original were a little goofy, it couldn't hold a candle to the idiocy of the latter.
The original trilogy had kind of cheesy dialogue, but Lucas actually allowed his actors to put some personality into the roles. Luke Skywalker started off kind of like a whiny, bored teenager, Princess Leia was always pissed off, Han Solo had the rakish charm. The second trilogy was all about trade federations and the worst love story ever committed to film. Everybody is so goddamned serious. Revenge of the Sith is the only watchable movie of the second trilogy, and just barely.
I just reloaded the main Eschaton page...I think we need to have an "open thread" quotation contest. Any takers?

Lucas really effed up the prequels, IMHO.
That's not opinion. That's objective fact.
But I gotta say that I liked Epi III to a certain extent. Give me that, cut the stupid "I'm knocked up dialog" and add a summary of Epis I and II, and it's exactly what was necessary.
I mean, really, Epi IV is a great movie with the shittiest dialog ever, but it had spunk. Mebbe some of that's because I watch it with my 7yo eyes, but man, it was full of soul and that organically shitty FX that CGI just can't compare to.

I kind of agree with Eli - the 3d one was not as bad as the other two. It had the feel of the originals, more than the other two did.
Lucas cannot direct people to save his life. The reason the characters were more developed in the first one is because Spielberg was involved. Ever since then, the effects have taken over. That's all Lucas ever really did - effects.

Stephen Hunter, one of the WaPo critics, observed after Epi II that the American actors all seemed lost, while the British actors seemed to be having a grand old scenery-chewing time.
He theorized that it was because of the Americans' reliance on method acting, where they try to get inside the characters, and Lucas didn't give them fully-fleshed characters to try to inhabit.
