New Equipment
Thanks to UsedCameras.com, I have some new equipment. I traded in my EF 35-135mm and my EFSs 18-55mm IS for used EF-S 17-85mm F/4-5.6. I had to add in a little extra cash, but so far I really like the new lens. It is quite an upgrade from the two that I traded. The range is really nice, and compliments my 70-200mm well. Look for new pics soon.

Mega Link Post
Lifehacker had a bunch of "Best Of 2009" posts today, and I found myself pouring through a bunch of the articles. I am going to link to them, because I will most likely want to reference them at some later point. There is some cool stuff. Also, I am a nerd. Lifehacker is a fantastic site, and not just for the geek minded. It is one of my favorite sites. Lifehacker, their sister site Gizmodo and (formerly sister site) The Consumerist take up a lot of my internet browsing time.

I Need $300 Million Worth Of Pabst!
"Pabst has hired Bank of America Merrill Lynch to find a buyer and has just sent sales books to prospective suitors. A buyer will need to pay about $300 million, according to sources."

What will happen to Pabst? Does it lose hipster appeal if they are owned by Budwiser??

This Is Nuts
I don't pretend to be an expert on policy, politics, or government, but this video has me in a rage right now. I can't believe that people can act like this, particularly people who are elected to office. No matter what side of this issue you are on, this type of behavior is juvenile and embarrassing. Wow.

"This morning, the House began consideration of the rule for debate of the House health care bill. As the Democratic Women’s Caucus took to the microphone on the House floor to offer their arguments for how the bill would benefit women, House Republicans — led by Rep. Tom Price (R-GA) — repeatedly talked over, screamed, and shouted objections. “I object, I object, I object, I object, I object,” Price interjected as Rep. Lois Capps (D-CA) tried to hold the floor.
In an effort to delay and derail the proceedings, the Republicans continually talked over the Democratic women for half an hour. They sought to prevent the debate by calling for unnecessary “parliamentary inquiries” and requests for “expanding the debate” by an hour."

The Metalocalypse Has Begun...
Episode 41 "Renovation Klok"
After the attack on Mordhaus, Dethklok is left without a manager and plagued by greedy record execs and forced to face the brutality of the slumping economy while dabbling in interior design. Will they spend everything and sign a deal that will render them powerless? Or worse, will they allow Murderface to turn the living room into an Arizona-styled sandscape?

Also, I hate Glen Beck. This is by far the funniest imitation of him that I have seen so far. Props to you, Mr. Stewart. I am officially a 11/3-er.
So much media hate for Glenn lately. The Onion, and now The Daily Show. Please keep it coming.

"A new study out of the Swedish Institute for Social Research published in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health has found a correlation between the mortality rates of men and the education level of the women they marry. Specifically, men married to women that are well-educated live longer."

What Harrison Barnes' Decision Means for Duke
BOO!!!
A debate between former presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush was canceled, according to the New York Post, after the event's promoter advertised it as "uncensored, unedited and unpredictable."
"This event ... was supposed to be a discussion between the two former presidents, and has been canceled because it was not being billed as such by an overeager promoter," said Matt McKenna, a spokesman for Clinton.
It was never supposed to be a "debate," McKenna said, which is how the promoter described it. The event was to be held at Radio City Music Hall in February -- with tickets going for as much as $1,250 a pop.

Bill Clinton and George W. Bush Will Debate At Radio City Music Hall
Tickets are $60. It would be funnier to see Will Ferrel and Darryl Hammond debate in character. I don't see this going well for W.

Holy Crap... The RED Makes Me Drool
via Gizmodo
There are a ton of pictures if you hit the link. The Scarlet sounds amazing (with interchangeable Canon or Nikon lens mounts), but the 5K sensor at 100fps on the EPIK-X blows my mind. The price also blows my mind. $28k.

I was going to wait on this for a couple of weeks, but I am downloading it right now. Karmic Koala?? Where do they come up with the names for this? I though Jaunty Jakalope was bad. Lucid Lynx (10.04) comes out next year. I am curious about this one. Jaunty worked pretty well for me.
Fat Little Girlfriends?? That is my new excuse for everything.
It is bad enough that Tech lost 52-30 to A&M, but this scapegoat is
a little far fetched, if you ask me. Fat and little? Something is amiss.

a security guard ordered students to hand down
