Shit man... So sorry Wearewatchingyouman...
about the non-life-threatening injuries, I read another earlier news report. I hope no deaths come out of this. Then again, if guns had been used it would have probably been much worse.
gun rights advocates must be really disturbed today that the guy didn't just get an easily-available gun and get the job done right.. rub a dub.

Sad... But this clearly shows (so far) how much more deadlier guns are... 20 people stabbed with NO life-threatening injuries... Thankfully enough!!
20 people shot... And the headlines would probably be much different.
one of the things that i have only done once... but i would love to do again and again until i perfect the technique, is called star trails.. my camera is a canon 60d.
there is a way to "hack" the canon dslr's so that they get some amazing functionalities, such as taking a picture just by clapping (really cool for when you want to take a picture and no one is able to push the button) and taking pictures at certain intervals.. you can read more about this "hacking" on .

Hi AnnOMaly, was pun intended? Hahaha
I learnt somwthibg new today (the iridium flares)... Perhaps it is those streaks in my picture
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/april_2014_lunar_eclipse.
it says it's the 15th but that's in ut.
i am in utc-6 (on dst) so for me and those who have a chance to see it it will be on the 14th starting at 9:58pm and ending at 2:58 am on the 15th.. .
Anyways... Like I said in another post,
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/April_2014_lunar_eclipse :
Main article: Blood Moon Prophecy
According to the Blood Moon Prophecy popularized by Christian pastors John Hagee and Mark Blitz, the April 15 eclipse will mark bring about significant change. [1] Starting in 2008, Blitz began teaching that the Second Coming of Jesus would occur at the end of the tetrad. He equates Joel 2:31, which says the moon will turn to blood "before the great and dreadful day of the LORD comes", with the eclipse. Hagee takes a softer stance, saying only that the tetrad is a sign of something significant. [6]
Writing for Earth & Sky Bruce McClure and Deborah Byrd point out that the referenced verse also says the "sun will be turned into darkness", an apparent reference to a solar eclipse. They note that since the Jewish Calendar is lunar, one sixth of all eclipses will occur during Passover or Tabernacles. Furthermore, there have been 62 tetrads since the first century AD and that eight of them have coincided with both the feasts. Thus, the event is not as unique as Hagee and Blitz imply. Additionally, three of the four eclipses in the tetrad will not even be visible in biblical homeland of Israel, casting further doubt on Hagee and Blitz's intrepretation. [7]
According to Christian Today, only a "small group of Christians" see the eclipse as significant. [8]

Most recent weather forecast states that it will be variably cloudy... hopefully in 6 days it will turn into a "sunny/clear" forecast!!
as i have mentioned before, i love photography, and specially a technique called hdr.
hdr stands for high dynamic range, and it means the ratio of the "lightness" of the lightest spot in the picture to the darkest.. .

Hi Gypsy Sam... with all due respect, I disagree with that statement.
Here is a comparison of a picture of the same place taken with an iPhone (I can't recall if the HDR was on but it wouldn't have improved much), and with my camera and then doing the HDR process:
iPhone:
Canon 60D plus HDR post-processing:

Congrats!!
I am always happy when I see success stories!!
my girlfriend cult handlers have gotten to her.
they suggested she should no longer communicate with someone who's thinking isn't in line with jehovah's organization.
we argued and she told me to go hang myself.
If there are never more than "two witnesses" to your thoughts they can't really get you. I agree with oubliette on this one.
i went looking for convention releases by year and i did not find a handy source.
so i've started one.
help me complete it, my friends.
marked!!

Yeah... the HDR from the iphone doesn't quite work... Same with the one on the ipad. It takes some time to make a great HDR.
Do you have an actual standalone digital camera?
