What's new in JW land?
by Jourles init's been a very long time.
i just wanted to pop in to see what sort of changes have occurred in the last few years.

Finally received our "shepherding call" today
by Jourles init was inevitable.
after dodging the bullet for a few weeks, the elders finally made their way to our house today.
the reason i think this to be so, is because he asked me what he should write down for my report.

HDR photography anyone? (pics inside)
by Jourles indoes anyone employ hdr(high dynamic range) photography in their bag of tricks?
in a nutshell, you take several photos of the same scene but at different exposures - from dark to very light(your aperture needs to remain exactly the same).
you then merge them together.

Honda FCX Clarity - hydrogen powered car coming in 2008
by Jourles inif you live in the socal area and $600 a month for a lease is chump change to you, honda will be offering a new hydrogen powered car in mid-2008.. just imagine the implications to the entire automotive industry, not to mention the oil industry, once this technology becomes more commonplace.
the car's range is roughly 270 miles.
of course, the hydrogen fuel infrastructure needs to be built out, so this may take an act of god to accomplish if the oil companies have anything to say about it.. http://automobiles.honda.com/fcx-clarity/.
