I read basically every comment on our videos and one thing is certain, people want the Destructoid Show back. So check out the hot new promo I shot last night for your favorite game news show!

You guys might recall (we sure as hell don't) a month or so ago, Devolver Digital sent me and Bill an early build of Titan Souls and a couple large bottles of some sort of ale made by wizards or monks or something. Bill and I somehow managed to beat a couple of the extremely difficult bosses, and then uhh. I think I put on Hotline Miami and died repeatedly in the tutorial mission.

Today, we're about to embark on a similar and equally stupid mission: we're going to drink some Pernod (Absinthe Supérieure!) the way it's meant to be served: with a golden spatula and some sugar cubes and little cups that look like bells, and we're gonna be wearing neckties and playing The Talos Principle while we do it.

The Talos Principle, if you're unfamiliar, is a philosophical first-person puzzle game from Croteam, the creators of the very stupid (but fun) Serious Sam series, and presumably, they got all the idiotic smashing of things out of their system, because Talos looks like a lot like Portal, but way more surreal, and with lots of pretty trees and stuff.

This'll be happening LIVE at 2 PM Pacific (that's two hours from now) on Twitch.TV/Destructoid

Okay, that's it. We're done. Skyrim is vanquished, and Ronnie James Dio can now mount his big clean tiger and ride it down into the midnight sea full of shiny diamonds like the eyes of a cat in the black and blue. Or something.

Who knows, maybe Dio's adventures in Skyrim will continue someday... But, Bill just showed up with a copy of Ride To Hell: Retribution, so I think we're gonna go play that instead.

My old roommate told me there's some trick to Skyrim dungeons where if you follow one of the walls all the way around, you'll find the exit, or something, but I never listened to him. I'm still actually mad because he buckled my frying pan by dunking it in cold water, so now it rises up in the middle, so when I cook eggs, they always run off to one side. He's a good guy, though. He played an archer with like a level 100 sneak, and then his PS3 bricked. Poor guy.

Here's some more of our Ronnie James Dio vi-DIO series. Ahem. Video.

Our ongoing look at what it would be like if the late heavy metal icon Ronnie James Dio continues his exploration of Skyrim. I like to think, in a decade or so, people will look back on this video series the same way they on that Ken Burns documentary about that thing that he did.

As Ronnie James Dio continues through the land of Skyrim on his stolen horse, we turn our magnifying glasses of journalistic criticism and nitpickery on Metallica and U2. What is the relationship between these two bands of musicians?

In our ongoing attempts to break YouTube by uploading the dumbest things possible into it, thereby short-circuiting the Mother Brain and freeing us all from our virtual imprisonment, we've started the second chunk of our adventures in Skyrim as heavy metal legend Ronnie James Dio. This is a bad video made by dumb people, but those dumb people had fun making it, so there's that.

Here's the fourth part of the idiotic Skyrim Let's Play series Bill and I have been doing. The hook is this: we're playing Skyrim, but our character KIND OF looks like Ronnie James Dio. So, we're talking about heavy metal and that sort of thing. My girlfriend Jenn got home from work and joined us on the couch to eat tacos, play Spelunky, and completely ignore the fact that we were in the middle of something.

Anyway. Here's a video. You can watch it if you feel like.

Sometimes playing video games is a fun experience and everyone enjoys themselves. Other times, someone winds up screaming at the TV. That's life. However, I can't remember the last time I found myself screaming "Eat the f*cking peanuts!" I mean, outside of that one time I was playing Elephant Hell 3D on hard mode.

Anyway, here's the tail end of me and Bill playing D4: Dark Dreams Don't Die. Click here for Chris Carter's review, which I haven't read because I'm so angry

I think the lesson Bill and I learned playing D4: Dark Dreams Don't Die is that we need to calibrate the Kinect, and make sure it can see us properly. Beyond that, I'm still unclear what this game is about, and it's vaguely upsetting to try and make sense of it.

It feels a bit like some kind of crossover between Cheers and The Butterfly Effect, but through a glass darkly, and from within a thick cloud of paint fumes. Is that a good thing? I don't know. But we sure look stupid playing it.

Okay, so Chris Carter absolutely loved D4: Dark Dreams Don't Die, so Bill and I figured we'd check it out... and uh. Wow. Goodness gracious.

That certainly is some sort of video game. I think. Honestly, if I didn't have this whole experience on video, I might think there was a gas leak in my house making us go all stupid and insane.

Our pal Mike Cosimano (who, in all seriousness rivals Jonathan Holmes when it comes to kindness and all-around positivity) was our video editing man at PAX Prime earlier this month. I made sure he got a chance to check out some games he wanted to see, and two of those games were Until Dawn and Bloodborne.

Both of those games were too scary for me and Bill to cover, so Mike did us a solid and summed up his thoughts in this lovely video, though first he had to go to back to college and then attend a Transformers convention. Sorry for the delay!

Sunset Overdrive was one of the most exciting announcements to come out of E3 2013, and since then, I've had numerous people say it looks like a game made just for me.

For whatever reason, I didn't get a chance to check it out at E3 or PAX, and a couple weeks ago, I was giddy to finally sit down and check it out. I played through the first hour or so, and while it seems like a pretty solid game, I came away feeling totally uninterested.

Maybe it's a case of hype fatigue, or maybe I'm just too old for energy drinks and parkour. Maybe I just need something weirder to scratch that itch. Anyway, check out the video for my full thoughts.

Man, Destiny. I seriously can't remember the last game that I felt so ambivalent about, but was so completely hooked on. Here's me and Bill dicking around on the Moon and discussing our general thoughts on the game, and killing the Moon-Princes with a big dumb sword.

Is it a "Let's Play?" I don't know. But we're enjoying ourselves, and maybe you'll enjoy watching our enjoyment.

Today there are a bunch of new trailers for games like Assassin's Creed Unity, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, and The Last of Us Remastered (which is on sale) but Bill and I would rather talk about superhero cartoons from twenty years ago, and guns we can't remember the names of in Unreal Tournament.

Monday is the worst day of the week, so Bill and I are coping with it by drinking blueberry smoothies and talking about wonderful things like superhero nonsense from Comic-Con, Mass Effect's exciting new (old) sharkmobile, Trine 2's awful poetry, Destiny's two unoriginal races, and True Detective, which Bill doesn't like, and therefore isn't allowed to have blueberry smoothies anymore.

As we recently learned, Sunset Overdrive lets players protect their genitals with the head of a green kangaroo, which is a very silly idea. But is that silly enough, in this post-Saints Row world? The answer is "who cares?" because there are also Hawaiian Shirts and Hawaiian Shirts are my jam.

One of my favorite parts of Pokémon Black & White was the ability to haze your magical pets by dressing them up and having them perform musical theatre, so putting Pikachu in drag in Alpha Sapphire and Omega Ruby sounds awesome to me. If you want to watch the full Pokémon trailer in all its awkwardly-paced Nintendo-approved sterile family-friendly glory, here it is.

For whatever reason, AOL accidentally let the cat out of the bag about Tekken 7, which is going to be running on Unreal Engine 4, and now we have a big ol' trailer for the game. Meanwhile, in a different game about guys with dumb hair hitting each other, Raiden has been revealed for Mortal Kombat X, and he seems to have a very loose understanding of what thunder can and can't block out.

I've liked just about everything I've seen from Dragon Age: Inquisition, which is weird, because historically I've basically avoided the series. Here is literally everything I knew about the previous Dragon Age games going into my Inquisition hands-on:

They are fantasy RPGs developed by BioWare

The first game was called "Origins," which is so redundant it's actually confusing. I spent a year or two thinking it was a prequel to another game.

The second game reused a bunch of dungeons.

You can do totally horny sex stuff. Er, I mean, there are "romance scenes."

An early episode of The Destructoid Show with "Dragon Age Blowjobs" in the video title is the single highest viewed video on our channel.

There's a character named Morrigan, who seems a lot less fun than the other Morrigan.

The pre-order bonuses for Alien: Isolation have been announced, and they're really, really cool... but should we take it at some kind of sign? After all, it was a very similar lust for bonuses that led to the crew of The Nostromo investigating the distress signal coming from LV-426, in the process granting passage to the film's titular nightmarish stowaway.

Of all the games we saw at E3, No Man's Sky is probably the most difficult to describe without sounding like we just came down from a mescaline trip. A procedurally-generated universe filled with millions of planets? Each with new and unique flora and fauna? Spaceships that shoot lasers? This is definitely a high concept game. Hopefully, the final product delivers, because it sounds cool as hell.

Here's some very flaccid news in the wake of E3 -- Destiny's Alpha is over, with a Beta next month. The game'll be a Sony exclusive in Japan. The new dude from Halo 5: Guardians has been named Agent Locke, and he'll be introduced in the Nightfall series. Capcom is essentially up for sale, kinda, sorta, and Nintendo's selling more Wii U's than you might've thought. Ubisoft apparently nerfed Watch Dogs' PC capabilities, and GTA V on PS4, PC, and Xbox One looks great and will have hammerhead sharks. Oh yeah and there's new Emoji. What? Emoji's sort of a video game.

Absolutely (or nearly) impossible to categorize or pin down, some of you may be intrigued by, if you're not already acquainted with, the music / career of this artist.
Phosphorescent is the pseudonym for musician Matthew Houck, who has recorded under this name since 2001. He is all at once folk, experimental, southern rock, country, synthie pop, all of which are ultimately held together with the "glue of industrial strength indie rock."
Brought to my attention due to a new and recent album release in mid-March entitled, Muchacho, there's more here than meets the initial passing glance. It's Houck's sixth album -- already. I'm not entirely sure if he uses session musicians, or plays all of the instruments / synthie himself -- but he is *it*, as the sole member of Phosphorescent; all of the vocals belong to Houck.
"Song for Zulu" is the track on Muchacho that will get you addicted. Very contemporary folk, experimental, and fresh. Yet, it's not my favorite, of all the tracks I've checked out over the past few weeks. I wish I could be more specific, but I'm learning as I go.
I'll be back to post some selected tracks later.
Comments or thoughts? Anyone a fan, or similar to my experience, caught the bug recently with Muchacho?

that's really awesome! you saw a rusted skillet, and conjured a really aweosme background and texture! you're brilliant!
Yah know, if you want that iron polished, use steel wool and oil (old frying oil, witch I use to sharpen my tools most of the time, would do just fine).
awesome texture hon thx for sharing it!
Great close up. I agree thats frightening!

Letter From Rabbi Waskow:
I need to consult with you and ask your help on an important matter.
We are close to being able to publish in the NY Times "The Tent of Abraham, Hagar, & Sarah," an unprecedented peacemaking call from Muslims, Christians, and Jews that addresses both the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the US occupation of Iraq.
Though a number of distinguished Muslim leaders helped initiate the Call, the number of Muslim signers is not yet on the same level as those of Christian and Jewish signers.
These are the initiating signers:
Dr. Sayyid Muhammad Syeed, Islamic Society of North America; Imam Abdul Faisal Rauf, Imam Talib Abdur Rashid, Imam Mahdi Bray, Meena Sharify-Funk, Saadi Shakur/Neil Douglas-Klotz; Sister Joan Chittister, OSB; Rev. Bob Edgar, National Council of Churches; Jim Wallis of Sojourners; Rabbis Rachel Cowan, Elliot Dorff, Gerry Serotta, David Teutsch, Zalman Schachter-Shalomi, Arthur Waskow, and Sheila Weinberg.
The Call draws on the Abraham saga that is shared in one way or another by all three traditions.
So I am making a special appeal to you to sign the statement, to contribute as much as possible to its publication, and to circulate it to your friends withn the same request. For poossiuble ease of use on Email, I am sending ther text below.
In adddition, as you will see from the attached graphic, the ad has already been formatted and a powerful graphic added by a public-relations firm skilled and experienced in shaping public-policy ads.
The Shalom Center, working also with ?Faithful America,? a project of the National Council of Chuirches, have now jointly raised about $30,000 to publish the ad. It will take another $15,000 to publish in the Times.
We believe that this statement, by showing Muslims, Jews, and Christians working together, will set an important tone to cut through the anti-Muslim feeling that has surfaced around parts of the country..
This moment is both urgent and propitious. Both in regard to Iraq and in regard to Israel-Palestine, we are at a moment when more energy can be brought into play to transform present US government policy, and to strengthen the networks that can keep working for peace.
On this issue, the participation of all three Abrahamic traditions makes it much easier for people from each of them to take part.
In the NY Times, the statement can reach a wider swathe of people and bring in enough additional support to be able to move into smaller cities. We believe the Biblical / Quranic language we are using in this ad can awaken and attract people whom many liberals have ignored.
Donations to support the publication of the statement are tax-deductible.
Rabbi Arthur Waskow, Director
The Shalom Center
Dear friends,
Please join with Rev. Bob Edgar, general secretary of the National Council of Churches; Dr. Sayyid Muhammad Syeed, general secretary of the Islamic Society of North America; Sister Joan Chitister, OSB, former president of the Society of Women Religious of America; Rabbis Rachel Cowan, Elliot Dorff, Zalman Schachter-Shalomi, Gerry Serotta, David Teutsch, Arthur Waskow, and Sheila Weinberg; and many others to sign this call: "The Tent of Abraham, Hagar, & Sarah."
In order to publish this to a wide audience, we need your support. Please send a (tax-deductible) donation to The Shalom Center, as shown at the end of this mailing. Though all gifts help, please aim at $250 if at all possible. Thanks!
We are members of the families of Abraham—Muslims, Christians, Jews.
Our traditions teach us to have compassion, seek justice, and pursue peace for all peoples. We bear especially deep concern for the region where Abraham grew and learned, taught and flourished. Today that region stretches from Iraq, where Abraham grew up, to Israel and Palestine, where he sojourned, and to Mecca and Egypt, where he visited.
Today our hearts are broken by the violence poured out upon the peoples of that broad region.
That violence has included terrorist attacks on and kidnappings of Americans, Israelis, Iraqis, Europeans, and others by various Palestinian and Iraqi groups and by Al Qaeda; the occupation of Palestinian lands by Israel and of Iraq by the United States; and the torture of prisoners by several different police forces, military forces, and governments in the region.
These actions not only shatter lives toiday, but endanger the future of our children and the children of our children. From our heartbreak at these destructive actions, we intend to open our hearts more fully to each other and to the suffering of all peoples.
In the name of the One God Whom we all serve and celebrate, we condemn all these forms of violence. To end the present wars and to take serious steps toward the peace that all our traditions demand of us, we call on governments and on the leaders of all religious and cultural communities to act.
We urge the US government to set a firm and speedy date for completing the safe return home from Iraq of all American soldiers and civilians under military contract. We urge the UN to work directly with Iraqi political groupings to transfer power in Iraq to an elected government.
We urge the UN, the US, the European Union, and Russia to convene a comprehensive peace conference through which the governments of Israel, the Palestinian Authority, Iran, and all Arab states conclude a full diplomatic, economic, and cultural peace with Israel and Palestine, defined approximately on the 1967 boundaries, with small mutual adjustments.
We urge the international community to work out lawful and effective means to deal with the dangers of international terrorism, the spread of nuclear and similar weapons, and conflicts over the control of oil and water.
We ourselves will act to create transnational and interfaith networks of Jews, Christians, and Muslims who will covenant together -
_ to insist that governments take these steps,
_ to undertake whatever nonviolent actions are necessary to prevent more violence and achieve a just peace throughout the region,
_ and to grow grass-roots relationships that bind together those who have been enemies into a Compassionate Coalition.
According to tradition, Abraham, Hagar, and Sarah kept their tent open in all four directions, the more easily to share their food and water with travelers from anywhere. In that spirit, we welcome all those who thirst and hunger for justice, peace, and dignity, to join in affirming this statement.
- Sister Joan Chittister, OSB; Rev. Bob Edgar, National Council of Churches; Dr. Sayyid Muhammad Syeed, Islamic Society of North America; Rabbis Elliot Dorff, Gerry Serotta, David Teutsch, Zalman Schachter-Shalomi, Arthur Waskow, Sheila Weinberg; —- and YOU?

Hi Mohd,
Scheduling of labs are done on a first come, first serve basis and they can be scheduled up to 8 months in advance.
If there are no open dates returned during your search on the online system for the lab locations you have listed, it means that all the current available lab dates are fully booked.
You may continue to check the online system (www.cisco.com/go/scheduleccie) frequently for openings due to cancellations. As soon as there are vacancies, candidates can grab the seats once they are available so we recommend checking the online system regularly for available dates.
Good luck!

I absolutely love this story! Beautiful model, beautiful hair, beautiful make up, beautiful styling, and beautiful photography. The tones and color are stunning. I always love Andrew Yee's work, and think he is always pushing for something phantasmical….I think this is where fashion photography should honestly be. In a fabulous dreamlike state……

Hello everyone!
I'm looking for the really nice mommy my daughter and I met a few weeks ago. It was a Friday night, towards the end of August, and we met you at Plan B restaurant in Simsbury, CT. My daughter, AJ, and I had come over to your table to say hello just before leaving. I thought you were really nice and wanted to know if you wanted to connect, maybe have coffee or lunch together, or perhaps have a play date with the kids. I really, really hope you're on BC. Please reply to the message if you are!
Mary Ellen, AJ's mommy

I'm busy testing the new Panasonic GX7 for an upcoming magazine article. Today I had a quick play with the video options so here's a very quick, rough and ready test of the Program Mode video output.
I've been asked a few times how and where I made the cover shot for the 1st edition of Belgian Beer & Food.
I thought a quick post to explain how simple it was wouldn't be a bad idea.
The shot was made at Moeder Lambic Fontainas in Brussels. A very cool bar where there is of course, a very cool selection of beers on tap. We'd gone there for a to interview one Jean, one of the owners. I shot the atmosphere photos as Alan was interviewing Jean and I immediately realised we had a cover shot somewhere here. A very sunny day and the light was beaming through the open door. This was an ideal backlight for a beer glass shot but the light wasn't getting where I wanted it.
I had a Dedolight DLH4 and a DP2 projector fitting with me so quickly set that up so I could illuminate the rear of the glass as accurately and as much as I wanted. The DP2 projector unit has shutter blades in it that can precisely control the light beam so there is no spill around the target. As I was shooting a nice amber beer, the tungsten DLH4 lamp didn't even need colour correction.
As simple as that.
A very fast shot, seen, setup and made in just a few minutes.
I'll be demonstrating the Dedolight system at Luxillag in Brussels on the 30th Sept. If you're interested in seeing how it all works and how you can use it in your work, give Aileen a shout at Luxillag or have a look on their Facebook page for details.
A quick sketch of the setup and situation.
Brick walls, dark furniture and floor. The windows and door are bringing in a lot of light but not quite where I wanted.
I could have used a reflection panel, but then I'd have to be very careful for reflected light spill.
The Dedolight with DP2 allows for very accurate light placement.
The base shot, as it was.The final cover.
What started a year ago as a pipe-dream for Editor in Chief and Publisher Paul Walsh, finally became reality last night.
Issue 1 of 'Belgian Beer & Food' was launched and presented to a group of passionate beer lovers.
The magazine is produced by ex-pats living in Belgium who share the love of beer, especially Belgian beer. A talented group of journalists teamed up to help get this magazine into print. I was asked to be Artistic Director and Chief Photographer so a huge part of me is in this magazine too.
As Belgian Beer & Food is an English language publication it is predominantly aimed at overseas readers. It gives them an insight into what's what over here. Not just in our ex-pat vision though, we have a number of Belgians backing the magazine too. Hilaire Spreuwers is a rising star in the culinary world and is also the Culinary Editor of the magazine.
If you're travelling on Brussels Airlines in the near future, keep an eye open, there is a good chance you'll be offered Belgian Beer & Food to read during your journey. If you're not flying, the magazine will be available at specialised beer retailers and bars. You can also subscribe to the magazine to be sure that you receive each and every of the quarterly issues. Keep up to date via the Facebook page too.
Cheers, and here's to issue 2!
Classic work as ever Rob.
Well done! I love it when someone has an idea and brings it to fruition! Looks like a great magazine.
This spring I was given the task of following an entrepreneur on one of his daily routines. Client meetings, driving, more client meetings and a appointment with the energy supplier to assess his own energy use.
The images were published in one of the door to door newsletters that Electrabel produce.
Client: Head Office.
Talk to anyone lately and they are looking for a compact camera solution that matches the performance of their DSLR. A huge ask. After all, a DSLR is what it is because of what it is. A large camera with mirror box, shutter mechanism and optical prism. The bulk has been tuned down as much as it can and now we see DSLRs in the marketplace that start at 400 Euro. An incredible feat that has only been made possible by the demand of the consumer market and the cheap production facilities.
So, the Nikon Coolpix A.
1. A fixed lens compact camera.
2. A whisker under 1000 Euro.
3. DX sensor.
Some people might have already stopped reading at the mention of a fixed lens. Others might have got as far as the price tag. Hopefully the majority have got to the bit about the sensor and are still reading.
The lens is 18.5mm ( 28mm in 35mm terms) with maximum aperture of F2.8. Obviously the choice of lens is a massive design consideration when penning a camera design. Nikon opted for what is widely regarded as a nice wide but not too wide general lens setup. Not so much a focal length that I'd do many portraits with but for general shooting it's a nice length. The F2.8 maximum aperture on the DX sensor also gets away from that typical 'all in focus' feel we dread with compact cameras, Selective focus with the wide open lens immediately opens doors to creativity.
Getting back to that Holy Grail of DSLR quality in a compact body dream. What Nikon have done is not simply drop a DX sensor into a compact, they have also added a rather decent AF system that is not unlike the system found in the D7000. In fact,what they seem to have done is pretty much shoe-horned the entire D7000 gubbins into a very solid feeling Japanese build plastic and magnesium alloy body.
How does it perform?
Well, it does everything it says on the box, Focus is very fast and accurate, image quality is superb. The compatibility with Nikon Speedlights is very welcome, as is high speed flash sync speed. I connected an SB800 via the Nikon SC-17 cable and was shooting happily at 1/2000s.
For the feel-at-home-factor, the complete menu structure just mirrors that of my Nikon DSLRs. No upsets there at all. Programmable function buttons and 2 user preferences settings on the mode dial offer a very flexible custom setup. I managed to get 940 shots out of one battery, albeit shooting a time-lapse and in manual focus, that's not at all bad.
ISO goes from 100 to a very usable 6400. Of course, the camera can shoot in NEF too so the full flexibility of the RAW image data can be exploited.
So basically, it really is all there. However, there is one HUGE omission in my book. The lack of viewfinder. I'm one of those people that have slowly crept into the world of needing reading glasses. Viewing the LCD screen at close quarters is getting tiresome for my eyes so I need to put my glasses on to use the camera, but then take them off to look over the camera at my subject. There is an optional optical viewfinder that sits on the hotshoe that will relieve you of $379. Ouch. That's a lot for something that merely gives you an idea of what's going on in front of the camera. No, for a 1000 Euro I would expect an EVF built in. In fact, without it, the camera is very hard for me to use seriously. The same goof that Sony made with the RX-1 and one of the things that wins the Fujifilm x100s so many points.
I want, and in fact I do love the Coolpix A, I can grab it blindly after using a Nikon DSLR and use it purposefully. I can set it up just the same as one of my DSLRs I can edit the NEF files alongside the DSLR into a consistent look. The lens vignettes a bit but can be post fixed, the charger annoyingly has the power plug built in but on the whole, I love it and can oversee the minor shortcomings.
What I can't love is that lack of EVF.
My bottom line.
Nikon, you have the makings of a excellent companion camera here. It is an excellent product. However, by proving that you can squeeze a DSLR into a compact body you did forget one of the most important bits.
I've just returned from a road-trip around Florida (full trip post coming soon) and noticed that during the trip I used the Coolpix A more than my D800E.
I put this down to a couple of reasons.
1. I could put it in my pocket.
2. A fixed lens just made me enjoy the trip more then fiddling with switching lenses or zooming.
3. I could use the camera one handed.
4. I was even more incognito and if I didn't talk, I didn't stand out too much like a tourist.
5. It has more then enough resolution.
I shot pretty much entirely in aperture priority and was pleased with how little exposure compensation I really needed to use. However, that's one thing I'd like to see different. A dedicated exp-comp dial like the Fujifilm X series. To be honest, the lack of viewfinder bothered me less than I expected. Even in the incredibly bright Florida sunshine the rear LCD screen was ok, that's probably more down to me 'snapping' shots though rather than me worrying too much.
All in all, it's one of the test cameras that I really am going to miss. It's travelled everywhere in my top pocket, gets pulled out, started, used, put away.
That 28mm (equivalent) lens is nice and wide too. I usually love 35mm but after seeing what the 28mm does, I've another favourite focal length for holiday photos.
The Auto Focus is very very quick. Very few missed focused shots and no hunting for focus either. I love the X series but this is one area they really need to be stronger in. The Coolpix A just nails even the quickest snapshot every time.
Battery life has been stunning and image feel is totally comparable to the Nikon DSLR range. It might look like a generic compact camera but it sure does deliver the goods.
Nikon DSLR users. You want a camera to stick in a pocket but want to keep your 'Nikon feel' in post processing? Give the A a look.
I've inserted some more photos from the Coolpix A too.
Your blog is great. Two things I like about the post, one it is straight forward and two it does not attempt to promote anyone's position particularly. Nice work Rob.
I'd jump on the Nikon A (or the Ricoh, for that matter) but for the focal length. I'd love to see Nikon hit 35 or even 40mm then I'm in. Great review though – got me changing my mind a bit there…
Well, the fuji is awesome. It's the DR that does it. And the 35mm (for me, anyway).
it should be noted that the Ricoh is essentially the same camera as the Nikon (DP review even thought it better in their opinion). And perhaps crucially it is also to be found significantly cheaper.
That said, I'd buy the Nikon purely because of the speedlight compatibility.

The 13,530 acres protected by ALT are diverse in size, habitat, and location throughout the state. The majority of this land is under conservation easements, but also includes land protected through fee simple donation. These properties are located in 26 counties and in 9 of Georgia's 14 major watersheds. These lands include natural habitats and river frontage in addition to working agricultural land and land of historical significance. Many of these tracts connect with other protected land, as we work to create corridors adjacent to national forest, wildlife management areas, and land protected by other land trusts.
For more information, please contact
Conservation Director
Kyle Williams
Conservation Coordinator

Recently Protected Land
Three of the four conservation easements were donated by the City of Madison. Round Bowl Spring is a park of 1.35 acres that is adjacent to the city's original water source and Downtown Madison, and contains walking trails, native plants, spring runs, and a stream. Presidents Park comprises 2.52 acres of bottomland hardwood forest containing a tributary of Horse Branch and is the future site of vital greenspace and recreation for an underserved neighborhood. Pritchard Farm is 19.00 acres of Oak-Hickory-Pine forest and successional meadow, a portion of which will be the future site of the City's rural cemetery expansion. The fourth conservation easement was donated by the Downtown Development Authority of Madison, the City's urban renewal agency. Located in the Downtown Urban Redevelopment Area, Tanyard Branch includes 2.85 acres of bottomland hardwood forests and its namesake water source. All four of these parcels will be open to the public and include walking trails, the first components in a planned 40-mile trail system connecting downtown, neighborhoods, parks, and places of assembly.
Our Conservation Projects
Bear Creek: 243 acres of forest, wetlands, and streams near Bear Creek Reservoir in Athens-Clarke and Jackson Counties. Donated by Lewis Scruggs and Mike Gautreaux, this property is located downstream from the reservoir, protecting our community drinking water.
Bibb: 45 acres of forest and streams in Bibb County, near downtown Macon. The landowner, Jim Goolsby, has placed a Conservation Easement to safeguard the streams and sloped oak-hickory forest found on this property.
Boulevard: A small, urban, forested property that maintains neighborhood greenspace in Athens' Boulevard neighborhood. After a tornado irreparably damaged a house on Boulevard, the owner donated an easement on the lot for the establishment of a neighborhood park.
Bowden Park: 17 acres of hardwoods and old fields located two miles west of downtown Athens. The easement protects land around a pond that the neighborhood uses for fishing and picnicking. An unimproved trail around the lake also provides walking and birding opportunities.
Brent Dooly: 326 acres of natural forest and farmland in Dooly County that includes 1.5 miles of Jallapo Branch. The easement preserves native grasses and other riparian species. The easement also preserves 242 acres of prime and important farmland soils for future agricultural use.
Bryant: 59 acres of farmland, forest, and a pond in Oconee County. Clay Bryant donated this property filled with diverse sloped forest filled with many large hardwood trees and native woodland species.
Burdett: 167 acres of forest land, located just east of historic Washington in Wilkes County. The farm has been in the Burdett family since the early 1800s, and contains the grave site of Revolutionary War veteran Abram Simon.
Camden-Maryfield: 483.5 acres of wetlands in Camden County on Georgia's Southern Coastal Plain. This property includes 1.2 miles of frontage along the Satilla River, a High Priority Waterway as identified by Georgia's Comprehensive Wildlife Conservation Strategy. The tract has significant conservation value for this ecologically rich region.
Chase Street: 49 acres of forest, pasture, and streams that flow into the North Oconee River in Athens-Clarke County. The landowners, Virginia and Carrol Beavers, are generously allowing Athens Land Trust to provide public access for the community with walking and biking trails and an urban farm
Five Acre Woods: 5 acres of urban forest, home to large hardwood trees and an important bird habitat. The Athens Land Trust holds a conservation easement on the tract to further ensure its protection as a natural park. There are walking trails through the park, which is accessible to all.

Charlotte Church would quit career for loveCharlotte Church would rather quit singing forever than lose boyfriend Gavin Henson.
The Welsh star says she's so besotted with the rugby ace she couldn't imagine being without him.
She revealed: "If I had to choose between him and singing, I'd definitely choose him over my career any day of the week."
The singer also says she knows she's found her Mr Right in Gavin - as she feels differently to how she felt when she was dating ex-lovers Steven Johnson and Kyle Johnson, who both dished the dirt to tabloid newspapers.
Charlotte said: "It's so different to when I went out with piece of shit No 1 and piece of shit No 2. With them I always knew it wasn't going to last - it was good for the moment. I thought I loved them, but now I'm with Gavin I just know that I didn't at all. It was just a union.
"With Gavin, I feel so special."
She added to Britain's Now magazine: "Gavin always makes me cups of tea and brings me back fags when he's been abroad, which is great. He texts me the sweetest messages out of the blue. He's just perfect."

Things Are Getting Nasty! Cops Called Again To Gosselin Home!Sassy Smith
What happened to Jon and Kate Gosselin putting their eight children first? Did they forget that it's in the best interest of their kids to put their own emotional BS aside and concentrate on their needs first? Apparently, the cops were called once again, to the Gosselin home.
According to sources, police were once again called to the Gosselin's Reading, Pa. home around 7 p.m. on Thursday (Aug 20). Jon and Kate were reportedly in an "argument," and police calmed the situation down.
There are no other details at this time but no arrests were made and it's unclear if anyone else was involved.
Maybe Kate got wind of Jon's girlfriend, Hailey, possibly being pregnant. I can see that starting a fight!

I'd love to have one of those for my own. I don't know if I need to be in a club or something... But a blueish Rouge helmet would be so awesome. *Praying*
Not open to making them right at the moment, 'cause I have a few left to do and scheduling constraints, but when I re-open the queue, I'll post a journal about it.
This is pure awesome in a concentrated avatar full of epic.
If you have any trouble saving it as a .png, let me know and note me with your Email, I'll send it to you that way.

I know my 2.5 dd can do it. She was almost fully potty trained in Sept and then started "holding it in" and ended up with a UTI. We took a break from the potty and went back to diapers and pull ups.
So, now she's on her way to 3 and think we're ready to start again. I know many of the issues are sensory related. She had constipation and with OT and Listening Therapy that has been resolved. She has a dry diaper for long periods of time. She tells me when she peed and she tells me when she's going to poop. She likes the potty--just not what is supposed to happen on it. We did stickers, but I'm thinking maybe we should move on to something edible like M&Ms or jelly beans.
Any ideas? I want her to be potty trained, but not at the cost of UTI's and constipation. How do I get her to go without being so scared of the result.

Morphic Fields and Change (Part 4): Survival of the Fittest

Yes, we are all very busy being lawyers; however, remember to take even just a few minutes every day this June to "stop and smell the roses." Read more about the benefits of being in the garden.
