This is a nice twist on the shooter genre. It’s very simple, compact and attractive.
Read up on this depth of field photography tutorial.
Depth of Field is one of the most important aspects of photography, whether it be digital or film. It can be the difference between an ordinary and stunning photograph. However so many photographers have little or no idea of how to set their cameras for a desired Depth of Field effect.

Becky’s favorite conspiracy creator, Alex P Jones, made the videos and a Kentucky man who passed copies of them out to friends and family was arressted for terroristic threats.
There came a time when Rushing thought it would be nice to give the 911 tape as well as the C-Span tape to local Kentucky State Trooper Lewis Dobbs. Mr. Dobbs is a young State Trooper working out of the Mayfield Kentucky Post in western Kentucky south of Paducah . So Rushing slipped the tape into the Dobbs mailbox one afternoon. Mr. Rushing did not go out “stalking” the state trooper as the trooper seems to believe. He drove past his house nearly everyday and it was well known by many persons where Trooper Dobbs lived.
…
Within a week or two, Rushing was pulled over on his way from work, by Trooper Lewis Dobbs. Dobbs went through the usual procedure, asking for drivers license, registration, etc., after which Trooper Dobbs slapped his handcuffs on him.
Since there was no probable cause as to his motor vehicle operation, Kelly asked Dobbs what he was being arrested for, and Dobbs said, you are being arrested for “giving me that tape. You are being arrested for terroristic threatening.” The trooper also asked Kelly, “Why did you threaten me? ” Kelly answered, “I never threatened you.” In his zeal, Trooper Dobbs never got around to reading the “tape desperado” his Rights.
Craziness attracts craziness, I guess.
It’s official. Rush Limbaugh is a total nut job.
There’s also the possibility that Hillary wants to be on the VP ticket so that she dispels the notion that the Clintons are sabotaging the campaign and so that she can also go out there and really be the star. She’d be the star because she’ll be the one bringing excitement to it. And, by the way, she’ll get all kinds of criticism and the Republicans will launch all they’ve got at her, and she’ll endure that. They know that they’re pretty confident Kerry is going to lose and if Kerry wins there’s always Fort Marcy Park. So they’re rolling the dice on this.
Fort Marcy Park is where Vince Foster’s body was found when…get this: Bill and Hillary dumped it after killing him.
(As usual, only funny because it wasn’t me.) Video proof that “shop at home” tv networks increase consumer safety. This poor guy breaks a “ninja” sword on the desk while trying to demonstrate it’s strength only to need an emergency room visit.

Today’s reason: bad science.
It’s a domestic issue that just won’t die, probably thaks to the Union of Concerned Scientists bringing it up over and over…and over. The Bush White House is setting a pattern of decrying scientific research that doesn’t match their agenda, using research that doesn’t match their related issues, and assigning non-qualified people to government science-related posts. (Easy-to-read excerpt available here.)
To cap it all, the report points out that Mr. Russell, who holds the most senior White House advisory position devoted specifically to technology, has only a bachelor’s degree in biology, no graduate or professional training of any kind, and no experience in a technology-related industry.
Looks like the scare commercials about recreational drug use funding terrorism wasn’t so far off.
Using common drug traffickers as intermediaries, Acebes said, the bombers swapped the Ecstasy and hashish for the 200 kilograms, or 440 pounds, of dynamite used in the blasts, which killed 191 people and wounded more than 1,400 others in the Spanish capital. Money from the drug trafficking paid for an apartment hideout, a car and the cellphones that were used to detonate the bombs, an Interior Ministry spokesman said.
I’m going to be happily voting in favor of raising my taxes at the end of this month.
