24 Season 5
It is now showing on the Fox channel, and Pearl channel (3 months behind).
In almost all American TV drama and movie, the President of US is almost a hero. Fox is the most pro government TV channel, and it doesn't suprise me that the President in the previous seasons are decent, brave, etc etc.
In this season, president Logan is a jerk. He couldn't stand pressure, couldn't make sound decision, and, he is the one who behind the big conspiracy! And yes, the conspiracy is related to oil and war.
You may say it's creative. But I see the public image of Bush administration is deteriating.

Digital Lens
The Pentax has her how version of digital only lens, called the DA series. On screen, photos from my DA lens shows higher in contrast and sharper then 'old' lens designed for film.
I took some family photos to print on 4R. They were all in jpeg original, no processing by me. Had a close look on the photos, I find that after photo print, photos from old design lens eg. Tokina 80-200/2.8, M50/1.4, A28/2.8 looks better.
I guess it's the small size of a 4R photo making resolution less important.

Life After The Oil Crash
"Civilization as we know it is coming to an end soon." A pretty hairy analysis comes from this site.
"The peak of oil production is at our door steps. Thereafter the oil production will follows a decreasing trend, and therefore the economic growth. However, our banking system is building on the assumption of continuous growth and honors a lot of 'credits'. Therefore economic collapse is inevitable.
"Since all mining, plantation and transportation are powered by oil; and all alternative / renewable energy source are depended on hi-tech which in turn required a lot of energy when production, all alternative energy source is actually an deriviative of oil, not alternative.
"Say goodbye to econimic growth. Say goodbye to advance technology. Say goodbye to civilization. Be prepared for the upcoming darkage." The site think so.
Critics say the earth actually has a vast among of oil reserve, just that we havn't discovered it. Try 'new oil field' on google and you will find 1 million pages. Oh yes, the world is 70% ocean and we havn't even explore 5% of the sea.
What's the truth? I honestly don't know. But even we have abandon reserve of oil on earth, peak oil will eventually come, thou I may not live long to see it. It's good to look into the problem even if peak oil will be a centuries away.
