Posted on: January 21st, 2009 HDR Images – Lumix TZ5

It’s been a while since i’ve been looking into getting a point and shoot camera… initially I wanted to invest in a real pro camera… but I quickly realized that I wanted was just something simple, that I can capture fun moments with my friends and family… So a friend of mine owned the Lumix TZ5, and he kinda let me play with it for a little while… It turns out to have a bunch of pro features, and it makes this camera a powerful little monster… So I went online and ordered it.

I can say so far I am pleasantly surprised with the quality and clarity of the images, very easy to use, point and shoot or manual. I’m not here to review the camera, there’s plenty of people out there that do a better job at that… but all I can say that so far, I’m very happy with it.

I did an HDR test, using the bracketing feature, here’s the result.

Here’s one of the images used for it… this was the regular exposure shot.

Posted on: January 8th, 2009 The Saga of Bloodninja – Funny Cyber Sex

I found this while stumbling the net, this is sooo funny… proceed at your own discretion!

The Saga of Bloodninja.

This is a little sample:

Bloodninja: Wanna cyber?
MommyMelissa: Sure, you into vegetables?
Bloodninja: What like gardening an s**t?
MommyMelissa: Yeah, something like that.
Bloodninja: Nuthin turns me on more, check this out
Bloodninja: You bend over to harvest your radishes.
(pause)
MommyMelissa: is that it?
Bloodninja: You water your tomato patch.
Bloodninja: Are you ready for my fresh produce?
MommyMelissa: I was thinking of like, sexual acts INVOLVING vegetables… Can you make it a little more sexy for me?
(pause)
Bloodninja: I touch you on your lettuce, you massage my spinach… Sexily.
Bloodninja: I ride your buttocks, like they were amber waves of grains.
MommyMelissa: Grain doesn’t really turn me on… I was thinking more along the lines of carrots and zucchinis.
Bloodninja: my zucchinis carresses your carrots.
Bloodninja: Damn baby your right, this s**t is HOT.
MommyMelissa: …
Bloodninja: My turnips listen for the soft cry of your love. My insides turn to celery as I unleash my warm and sticky cauliflower of love.
MommyMelissa: What the f**k is this madlibs? I’m outta here.
Bloodninja: Yah, well I already unleashed my cauliflower, all over your olives, and up in your eyes. Now you can’t see. B**ch.
MommyMelissa: whatever.

Posted on: January 8th, 2009 Upgraded to Wordpress 2.7 – No Problems

So I finally took it upon myself to upgrade my wordpress, I think I was like 3 releases behind… the reason why I hadn’t done it was because of all of the horror stories i’ve heard about upgrading. People have problems with it, they loose posts, images, and more. Well, It’s all good in the world of Cursing Angel.

I you haven’t upgraded your version, make sure you do, it has a brand new interface, super easy to use, much more intuitive. Not that the previous was bad, but this is just better ;) .

Download it here:

Happy blogging!

Posted on: January 7th, 2009 Wii Media Downloads

So, I came across this service a few days ago, and I was very reluctant when I first learned about it. I’ll give you my short review…

So, apparently you can donwload movies, games and music to the Wii… this essentially makes your Wii a very powerful entertainment center. Not only that, but you can download all of the media into your PC and then transfer it to the Wii, giving you even more flexibility with your downloads.

And what’s the downside? Well, after a while, you’ll find yourself paying a lot of money for all of this media.

Solution: Wii Media Downloads

These people offer unlimited downloads to all kinds of media. I’ve taken their key description and used it here (I hope they are ok with this):

Posted on: October 28th, 2008 ScrollBar

Ok, so I found this on Kirupa.com, it’s a complete tutorial on how to build a scrollbar… NOTE: I haven’t tried doing this tutorial myself, so I don’t know the extent of the code, complexity or ease of use. With that said, it seems pretty straight forward, nothing you can’t follow yourself.

Posted on: October 21st, 2008 Rec Movie Vs Quarantine

By now, pretty much everybody’s heard of the movie Quarantine, I won’t talk about what the movie is about, all I will say is that is pretty suspenseful, with a weird ending… To be honest, I wasn’t too impressed with this rendition of the movie. I first heard of the film by looking at Rec Movie’s website

http://www.recmovie.co.uk/flash/

Here’s the teaser trailer:

Here’s the trailer for Quarantine:

I have to say, after watching both movies, I can say that the original REC Movie was more intense, and really kept me on the edge of my couch. Maybe it’s because I already knew what it was about, the Quarantine fell short of that. Not to say that it is a good movie, but i’ll just say that if you haven’t watched Quarantine, do yourself a favor, watch REC first.
