Zi6 Kodak HD camera
I had previously pre-ordered the Zi6 HD Kodak video camera on Amazon.com but it apparently won’t ship until October. But videos are popping up all over Vimeo that were shot with the camera and its killing me that I don’t have mine yet. So I went and ordered it on Kodak’s site, but of course its backordered. So, now I wait. I guess we’ll see which one ships first.

Dolphins rescue surfer during shark attack!
This story is AWESOME. Apparently a surfer was attacked by a Great White shark so big that onlookers thought it was a whale. As the beast had the surfer in its jaws a pod of dolphins systematically attacked and distracted the shark forcing it to let go of the surfer, then formed a PROTECTIVE RING around the surfer allowing him to get to shore.
Don’t eat dolphins. Give them hearts.

OpenTape up and running. And Awesome.
I installed Opentape and it is definitely all it is cracked up to be. Rock solidly awesome. And SUPER easy to install. You just drag and drop 1 folder to your ftp server. Anyone can do it. (I’m looking at you, Pips.)
Get it here.

– Hillary Clinton at the Democratic National Convention
Good job Hillary
I just heard Hillary’s speech at the Democratic National Convention and she did a great job. I’m glad she pushed her delegates to Obama, and HOPEFULLY, those serious Clinton supporters will do the right thing and come on board. Do the right thing.
Bank Card disaster!!!
My life has fallen apart since I reported my bank card stolen. I had NO IDEA how often I used it. Even in the background. I can’t download iTunes music, movies or even iPhone apps… Netflix knows my card is not active and won’t send out new dvds they owe me… all because some jerk in stole my bank card # and went to get chinese food. That bastard.
I am watching the democratic convention and I am blown away at the cheesy music they use between segments…
WatchI caught Tori making dangerous video mixes in her editing bay when she should be making advertisements for dog food. Srsly.

A Limerick for Meow Mix
More odes to kitteh. My cat holds a kind of power over humans and waves his paw, creating awe, splendor and fear.
mindgrapes:
There on his throne sits King Meow Mix the First,
whose rule as a tyrant could not be worse.
if you dare state the fact
his cock’s short a sac,
Then you my friend won’t be long for this earth.

Vimeo Roadmap
Vimeo offers a “behind the scenes” feature on their site called “Roadmap” that allows users to see what cool new features they are working on.
I LOVE this kind of stuff. I routinely visit this page, just to see cool new pics and get a handle on where the site is going.
Check it out HERE.

Criterion uses PS3 as their reference Blu-Ray...
This is the second news item today that got me thinking about buying a PS3 for all my HD and Blu-Ray movie needs…
Apparently Criterion uses a PS3 as their reference Blu-Ray player. If it’s good enough for them, it’s good enough for me.
Read a bit about it here.
And if you don’t know about Criterion, check them out here.

Mad Men Misogyny...
I’m watching the first 3 episodes of Mad Men’s season 2 and I’ve started to get the impression that all the empowered, independent, strong willed women in the series are represented as whores, sleeping with any married man they can find… The remaining girls, the laced up wives, the women creating families, dutifully following husbands are demonstrated to be constantly...
