Seriously considering getting a Kindle Paperwhite to replace my second-gen Kindle. Any good reason to get a different model? WiFi plentiful.

I need to pay attention to this a little bit.

And this:

That's a nice video from this page on the PDGA.com site. You must maintain and "demonstrate balance" before moving forward of your marker when "putting" (shots within 10m of the basket) in disc golf.

Currently Disc Golf rules are much simpler than the Rules of Golf, but the USGA should create some videos like that one (maybe a bit less cheesy, but informative just the same). That'd be a swell idea. 😉

Anyone looking for a really belated birthday present for me? 🙂

I'll take one of these:

And one of these:

Thanks! 😀

Here's the video on the TED site.

P.S. I knew this was something I'd seen before. Duh. Here's the first of four parts on Vimeo.

There are more such videos here.

Intermittently I get an issue with Aperture (3.3.2) hanging on launch. The cause? A bad symlink within the application bundle. It typically fails with a 8/27/12 11:20:33.797 am Aperture[31820]: *** -[NSURL initFileURLWithPath:]: nil string parameter and I remember an Adium beta failed similarly.

I'll chalk this up to bit rot at files copied over from my previous Mac Pro, BUT it's happened at least twice with Aperture, and so I keep the 3.3.2 updater around as well as a copy of 3.3.1.

PITA.

You'll get absolutely nothing out of this, but I've put my golf discs online. You can view them (for now) at the URL: http://barzeski.com/dg.

How anyone has the time to do this is beyond me, but… at least nobody was snatchin' your people up this time.

Naturally, the same is true in the golf swing. You want a smooth application of power, not a swing (or throw) that looks like you're trying to muscle it out there.
