Thanks, man. Being in Iceland is like being on another planet, but you don't have to be a rocket scientist to take beautiful photos here - it's mindbogglingly gorgeous.

(In case you wondered, the snow looks soot-black from the large volcanic eruption the month prior.)

Thanks!

(If you look closely, you can see two people off for a walk with their dog.)

One more. Similar themes.

Thanks! I find that Nikon's kit zooms are actually pretty nice and crisp. If I weren't planning a wedding this year, I'd have my hands all over that D800, though — finally, a full frame sensor housed in a fully featured "pro-thusiast" body.

No, thank you! I rock the D7000, too, and I always like seeing it used well. I'm not a professional, but it's an awesome, affordable camera for the enthusiast or the professional looking for a backup. Did you use a prime super wide or a zoom?

Great shot. A little off topic, but what did you shoot with?

"By the way, Sonja, I told the Daily Mail all your business about having breast cancer, and me paying for your mastectomy. And that you're going to have a mastectomy. BFFs?"

Not for nothing, email scams sound over-the-top fake and absurd for a reason (e.g. i is a nigeriAn prance and need to givz u $!$): it helps the con artist weed out the less gullible, less intelligent, or otherwise more victimizable marks. I'd wager pick up artists use the same strategy: treat women bad enough and you…

I actually think many developers have moved into the "mature" territory, in terms of adult themes. The problem (I think we agree on) is that poor execution results in low brow, run and gun CoD offal.

.................This one goes to eleven.

This one goes to eleven.

That was my gut reaction, too. Then again, Aston Martin's current line is a homogenized. So, mmmmmm, Zagato.

If good law-abiding citizens don't make video games like this, then the only ones making video games will be criminals and Rockstar Games.

Which speaks to your point about functionality. I'm not buying Cousins's argument on the basis that he is unable to establish a material difference between two kinds of hardware (consoles and handhelds like the Vita), which are essentially identical in terms of manufacturing. Sony's Vita must overcome the same…

So, customs officers are not looking at passports anymore. Great.

I'd like to see the data points for mobile gaming hardware profitability.
