I like this quote and think it applies to people in other areas as well, including athletes.

There are two kinds of geniuses: the 'ordinary' and the 'magicians'. An ordinary genius is a fellow whom you and I would be just as good as, if we were only many times better. There is no mystery as to how his mind works. Once we understand what they've done, we feel certain that we, too, could have done it. It is different with the magicians. Even after we understand what they have done it is completely dark. Richard Feynman is a magician of the highest calibre.

If you could have one meal, regardless of cost (both financial and health), what would it be? Describe it in as much detail as you please.

My answer is probably lame: some whole milk, corn, mashed potatoes, and a big ol' juicy slab of steak, perfectly seasoned, with some chocolate cherry ice cream for dessert.

When I'd previously asked about Eye-Fi cards I was interested in them primarily from a tech, ease-of-use perspective.

Well, a few people using Analyzr have asked about "live capture" of swings. This has historically been done on a machine hooked up to two Firewire- or, occasionally, USB-driven cameras to capture swings immediately into the software. Some software will note impact, record the two seconds prior and the one second after, and import that as a swing.

The downsides are that this is only really feasible indoors, with cameras recording 30 to (at most) 60 frames per second, and every swing will be recorded while in live recording mode. Cameras simply aren't being made these days to support this, so the feature is slowly dying in cameras as well.

With the Eye-Fi, I think instructors can get you the best of both worlds. They can record the swings they want, in high-speed (120, 240, 300 FPS), and they can sync the video to their computer for easy importing.

Perhaps we'll do a screencast on this…

Mike Bennett and Andy Plummer are conducing a one-day school at Whispering Woods and the Golf Evolution Academy on Saturday, April 30, 2011.

Unlike the previous post, they teach a golf swing that makes sense.

Uhm, what?

An article from Macworld explains all. Looks pretty awesome.

The long wait is over (except for those poor folks wanting a new MacBook)!

I helped a friend pick out a 13" model today. They pack a good punch and are nicely sized.

Why must SteerMouse be "reconnected" every morning? Why can't it automatically poll to see if it's still "connected" and reconnect if it is not?

The software works fairly well - and is a bit less confusing than USB Overdrive¹ - but this "reconnect" thing is annoying.

I've recently helped a friend set up a phpBB forum, and we're wondering if there's one really good anti-spam tool available for phpBB.

I've used and am familiar with a few of the vBulletin ones, and Akismet does a pretty good job, but I'm not sure what's available for phpBB.

Any recommendations?

Looking forward to:

• Mission Control (Spaces Done Better?)
• Gestures
• Auto Save (not much)
• Versions (a little)
• Resume (nice)

Don't really care about:

• App Store
• LaunchPad
• Full-Screen Apps (care a little)
• Mail 5 (eh, whatevs)
• AirDrop (isn't this just the public drop box?)
• FileVault

Whatever party this guy supports, I wonder if they're glad to have him. Did he get the "moran" guy to make his sign?

Highly recommend Calvetica. Works great. Apple's "Calendar" is now tucked away in a "folder" I never open.

It's a little bit interesting that I use neither iCal on my computers nor Calendar on my iPhone. BusySync and now Calvetica, thank you very much!

Coming soon to a Golf Evolution near you.

Yeah, science. What's it ever done for anyone?
