This is superb. I just showed it to my 5 year old son who enjoys Lego and has already taken some great photos, including one or two of his toys. So now he has the seed of the idea that, in time, he could take multiple stills and put them together to make moving pictures. Thank you very much for posting it and giving me and him that opportunity. Maybe, he might use FriendFeed one day too!

I think they need to make a full stop-motion version of the Matrix in legos. Now THAT would be awesome. I wonder what bullet-time looks like in LEGO?

Because a docking station means you won't buy a second machine from them ;)

We just got a pressure washer. I started pressure washing the bricks in our back patio and the teak furniture when Paul wanted to try it out "for just a second." It's been more than a half an hour and he's still out there. "This is a lot of fun," he says. Yeah, I thought so, too. <pout>

I got to use our pressure washer exactly once; and even then I had to fight for my turn. Gabe loves it so much he will take it over our friends houses and pressure wash their walks too!

Just be careful when doing wooden steps or a deck. I took about a quarter of an inch of surface wood off on of our steps before I realized what was happening. I was using a "turbo" attachment, which evidently heightens the effect more than one would think.

"What does that paper tray of deliciousness contain? I’ll break it down for ya. Top: Har Gow dumplings– Shrimp and bamboo. Center: Chicken Bun– Chicken and mushrooms in… that fluffy dough stuff. Bottom: Lotus-Wrapped Sticky Rice– Rice, chicken, shrimp, veggies… and pork. All that was just under $10. (In LA, $10 for lunch is relatively reasonable… it’s cheaper than what I’d pay if I ordered from the menus in our office’s menu-book.)"

These images show the elevation (yellow is high, green is low) and moisture (blue is wet, brown is dry). In polar coordinates, elevation varies along the radius and moisture varies along the angle. The combination produces some good variety.
