A DSLR That Shoots Video

The Nikon D90. Only DSLR that does this at the moment, with all the exposure and depth-of-field control of an SLR camera. About $1300 and I'd say Nikon has the early score against Canon's EOS 50D.

Nice, much?

How To Draw Anything In One Step

An ingenious solution to most drawing problems. In one step.

You may be asking, "How could you possibly learn how to draw anything and everything in just one step? Are you a moron?" And if you are, there is no need for childish name-calling. Let's be civilized adults here.

Follow along as I teach you how to draw everything, in this tutorial.
The Step?

Draw a dog covering the thing you can't draw.
Genius.

The Olympics So Far

Everybody's going to be talking about badminton in a bit, so let me weigh in with the sports that I'm watching alone.


Choi Min-Ho is GOD. I am in awe of the Judo he plays. The above throw is a te-guruma, or hand wheel, and he managed to pull it off even though Ludwig was sprawled forward. My jaw dropped open throughout the entire thing.


Oh, and it turns out Bill Gates likes Badminton. Cute pants. Hehehe.


Masato Uchishiba won the 66kg class last night, apparently by landing on the Frenchmen's head, and then choking him. Poor Darbelet tapped out. A great bunch of the Thomian judokas were talking about it this morning, and I wondered aloud how the poor guy felt winning like that.

Tonight's match (74 kg) was won with a 13 second morote-gari (double handed reap). Both Elnur Mammadli and Wang Ki-chun are 19.



Sweet. =)
