i've had this lens for about 7 months now and while i think it's a great lens, how to get consistent focus with the AF is still a mystery to me. i generally shoot around 1.8 to 2.2 so i know the dof is pretty shallow and perhaps that is part of the reason, but when i shoot, i generally use the center point, focus on the eyes or some part of the face and then reposition. sometimes it comes out the way i want, as in this example (http://www.flickr.com/photos/70072717@N00/5555471847/in/pool-56354702@N00/), other times, the focus seems to be on something else (http://www.flickr.com/photos/70072717@N00/5556060766/), not where I had intended (the water gun is in focus but i wanted the face to be). any advice on what i need to change in my methodology? thanks.

Maybe one should receive his/her G4 and G5 status 6 months after it is reached in post #'s or, in other words, "announced."
That way, it would be a fairly accurate depiction of market conditions. :D
maybe you have to be a 601 for a designated amount of time then you have to do some special project to reach g3 much like boyscouts

as long as you have money...theyll sell it to you..trust me
Im hoping that the lines arent too bad. I pre-ordered online..although it doesnt seem to make any difference.
Im really hoping that the lack of a subsidy and the fact that they are shipping them from the website will make the lines almost nonexistent.....but im thinking thats probably not gonna happen. I dont even know when my local mall opens..i guess they would open early enough to let people line up? who knows..

Hurricanes are a "random" occurence.
Prediction is impossible.
Next year can be less or far worse than this year. There is no telling. if it IS as bad next year as this year, we as a country are f*cked but thats what we get for living on planet earth I guess.
Get a helmet, hurricances are nothing like earthquakes. You know when a hurricane will hit welll in advance, making them not "disasters" in the same sense an earthquake is a disaster.
I live in florida.
And while I will take anychance to bad motuh Dubbya, Global Warming from a scientific (NOT environmentalist) point of view cant be proven.
All the data on global warming is only a few decades old. And over GEOLOGICAL TIME, which is how weather and the way the Earth functions is measured, this is less than a fleeting moment.
So with that in mind, just cuz the last few years have been "hotter" doesnt mean that it will continue that way. As it stands you cant predict global warming anymore than you can predict the coming of the next ice age. It takes too long for permanent changes in the earths environment. How long did it take to go from methane and CO2 to a 28% oxygen atmosphere, ~BILLIONS of years. So 20-50yrs of "global warming" data isnt enough and never will be.
But it cant be ignored that greenhouse gases and all that toxic crap IS BAD FOR THE PLANET.
So your assertation is that since nature takes a long time to make changes on it's own, any changes we make much faster will be OK. That makes sense, insomuch as now i know that the anti-global-warming people just aren't applying any logic anymore.

Hey guys, I just started folding again after a long time off. I'm running the SMP bigadv client on my Windows i7 box, and I have a couple questions.
First, I'm folding the P6901 (R21, C10, G6) protein, and according to FahMon, it's worth 552,139 points. Is this correct?! :eek:
Second, at this rate I won't finish it. The deadline is in 94 hours, and I'm at 1%, completing a percent every hour and 20 minutes. (So I need 132 hours to finish it.) Task manager has all 8 cores at 100% on my i7-920, so there's not a lot I can do, is there a way to switch to a different protein, or should I just let the deadline run out?

There are so many threads on this general topic, that, ugh, please just search for them? But on the specific issue of TBE not working on your Mac, what do you mean? This sounds abnormal. I use FF and love it on my Mac. And I have TBE, and it works fine. The only thing that's flaky for me in TBE is closing FF and re-starting and having tabs resurrected on restart. That has never worked properly for me on PC or Mac. But TBE behaves the same for me on both OSes.
OTOH, I definitely do agree that a number of themes behave strangely on FF/Mac. Try Safarish -- http://www.aroussi.com/article/11/firefox-osx-safari-look -- if you like the way Safari *looks*. NOIA Xtreme worked pretty well for me on my Mac too.

But if I was on the same network as you, you very well might show up in the finder side bar account name and all. For people who file sharing is enabled this is a huge flaw.
Agreed. And even though file sharing may not be enabled my default, I'd venture a decent amount of people have had need to turn it on.

Try a Thinkpad T-series. Best-built for the money, with user-replaceable parts (try finding that on most machines today), and a keyboard that puts all others to shame.
Agreed. In fact, IBM/Lenovo and Apple have historically been the only companies that could build a laptop that survive a year or more in my loving care xD
Looking back, every Apple laptop I've owned since my PB1400, barring one of the two 12" AlBooks that just got dropped one too many times still works. The same can be said of my T20, T30, and the cheap Lenovo N200 I bought when I thought I wouldn't be able to afford the MacBook I'm using now.
In the same time, I've killed Dells, Sonys, various MSI and Mitac machines badged as unheardof manufacturers, so YMMV, but I'll stick to Apple and Lenovo. Sonys tend to feel just as flimsy as all the others IMHO, but maybe I've only had the misfortune to meet their lower end machines.

The impedance affects more than just the volume it also affects the quality of the sound pretty significantly.

So some of this could be new stock that's just repacked for a low price? Possible I suppose.
Although I wonder where they've dug up the 3rd gen iPods from. Think they've found a stock room that they thought they'd lost? :eek: ;)
I'm sure there is some iPod cemetery where the undead 3rd-gens wait to be sold as refurbished... *BUUUAAHHH* :eek:

You could maybe get an older model white one. They were wireless and had a number pad. Like this...

Might be able to pick a cheap one up somewhere?

I've heard that ruby on wheels is a really good editor - it will allow you to do allsorts, but you need to be pretty handy with code side of designing... if not, just take a bit of time to look into it...
You mean ruby on rails, lol. :)

Hi with all the wonderful help in this forum I have just jailbroken my iPhone 4. Now I am trying to do the same for my iPad. Since iPad doesn't have baseband, should I just restore to 4.2.1 directly from iTunes or I should still download the firmware somewhere and start TSS server of TinyUmbrella while restoring to 4.2.1? Thank you very much for all the help. :)
