Frampton's voice guitar thing explained

Somehow never really thought about how he did this before. #roadblogging

This hard work had changed how she told her story. Her sense of this choice being “right” no longer hinged on a Tarot reading and a timely conversation with a neighbor. After all, it wasn’t just luck that steered her to a new life. Her heart told her not to take that dream job. Her gut told her not to move to San Francisco. She’d wanted to design gardens since she was six years old. She finally listened to that desire. She would have got here, synchronicity or not. She now got her sense of “rightness” from the joy in her life. She was fulfilled. She was proud of her work. Every day, this “rightness” reaffirmed itself.
Damn, right now that seems impossible.

I hadn’t noticed this before. Probably the most effective anti-theft message I’ve ever seen.

Firefox 3.5 released, ready to "upgrade" the Web

azspot:

Mozilla has officially released Firefox 3.5, the next major version of its popular open source Web browser. Ars takes a close look at the new version and evaluates its enhancements. Support for HTML 5 video and other important emerging Web standards make this one of the most significant Firefox releases ever.

I will never be able to guage software speed. Every time I update something, I somehow trick myself into thinking that it feels faster (see iphone 3.0, this), whether or not it really is. But some sciency people are saying it’s quicker, so I’ll believe myself this time.

Marian Hossa apparently turned down a 10yr/$40 million offer from the Detroit Red Wings. A low-ball offer if I do say so myself.
I found this post on Pensblog funny… mainly because 99% of Red Wings fans probably said this upon hearing about Mr. Hossa.
“The sheer gall of Marian Hossa…This is the RED WINGS!  This isn’t just the organization that sits high upon their perch and chortles at the rest of the NHL.   This is the RED WINGS.  This isn’t just the model hockey franchise.   This is the RED WINGS. This is the organization that invented hockey…no, no, no…wait! This is the organization that fucking invented RUBBER because without rubber, there would be no pucks. After they invented rubber, THEN they invented pucks. After they invented pucks, THEN they invented hockey. I thought every hockey player was falling all over himself just for the chance to play for the Red Wings, for the chance to become part of “The Family”.  I thought every hockey player would play for free just for the chance to wear a Red Wings practice jersey.   I thought every hockey player would give anything to see the soft glow beam down from the heavens and chorus of angels singing as they first set skate to Joe Louis Arena ice.”
Yes, I still hate Detroit.
And you should too.

This is the stage where they start applying lens flare to potluck fliers and digitally inserting their long dead childhood cat into family photos.
