And the Fence Fades…

Well a few nights ago (Sunday actually), I went out shooting. It was fairly cold, but relatively still outside. I took a few hundred shots, but of all those, there were only a few that I think are nice. This is one of them. Interestingly, the levels are way out of whack, but that is part of what gives it the ghastly tone.

EXIF:
Canon 20D
Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 L IS USM
30 seconds @ f/8
ISO 100
Bogen 3011N tripod with 3265 grip-action ball head

25% view
50% view
100% view

Hope you like it. 🙂

KYLE IS HERE!

Well today proved to be an incredibly exciting day. My K20a and all that other stuff arrived today (3 days ahead of schedule). I still have to wait for a few other parts come in (from Acura and Honda of America). I only had one small part missing from the order, and that was the power steering return line. So, in essence, I’m still waiting on the following:

Koyo Radiator
2004 Civic Si radiator fan and shroud
2004 RSX type-S clutch lines
2004 RSX type-S power steering return line (missing from order)
ECU sent to TrueHonda to have K-Proed

All those things should be in by Friday. Wish me luck. 🙂

Stems cells can form into any organ, including a washed brain

Everywhere I go I seem to see these signs saying “No stem cell research!” or even “Say NO to cloning!” These types of signs really frustrate me because all they demonstrate is a complete lack of understanding. While I have nothing against one following one’s own religious values, I do disagree with BLINDLY following the ideas of a religious figurehead! The Pope & Catholic Church have instilled the grossly skewed correlation between stem cell research and cloning

Stem cell research could improve the quality of life for many individuals and could even save the lives of some. Interestingly, these same Catholics that are opposed to stem cell research are against abortion because of their high regard for the sanctity of life. George Carlin eloquently summarized this contradictory logic by saying:

“If you’re pre-born, you’re fine; if you’re pre-school, you’re fucked!”

In closing, I have no problem with supporting one’s pre-election beliefs by placing signs urging a certain type of vote, but PLEASE have a firm understanding of the issue at hand before doing so.
