so...stock turbo + 10.8 drag comp = not too fun (Dec 20 2007 04:59 GMT)

- So I finally did an acceleration from a stop with my drag comp on 5/5, and since I need to adjust something in my transmission whenever it gets to the top of 1st whne I don't get into it right away it won't shift until I let off, so I do that it goes to 2nd, then beginning of 3rd and I look at my egt gauge, and its pegged at 1600, so I let off, everything is normal so I'm not worried ,just won't do that again. ....so I've come to the conclusion that...I really, REALLY need a turbo before I think of doing anything else, not to mention I need to take my transmission down and have it serviced, hopefully they don't give me the whole "it needs this and that done" since it acts completely normal other htan that 1st -2nd gear shift on WOT.

U2 in first ever 3D concert beamed live to a cinema near you (Dec 20 2007 04:59 GMT)

- Everyone is probably aware of the early attempts at 3D on the cinema screen using the flimsy cardboard goggles with the red and blue plastic lenses for each eye. This, while being a valid execution of the stereoscopic principle that is necessary to create the illusion of three-dimensional perspective, was in practice a monochromatic, uncomfortable and generally disappointing viewing experience. But the technology is now being dragged into the 21st century as Irish supergroup U2 follow film-maker James Cameron?s lead in embracing state-of-the-art digital 3D technology, with plans for a concert to be filmed live in 3D and then streamed in real time to digital cinemas around the world...

- Today in the LA Times, a piece by Joseph Menn on striking WGA members in Hollywood who hope to launch venture-backed online entertainment startups as a way to bypass conventional entertainment economics: At least seven groups, composed of members of the striking Writers Guild of America, are planning to form Internet-based businesses that, if successful, could create an alternative economic model to the one at the heart of the walkout, now in its seventh week. Three of the groups are working on ventures that would function much like United Artists, the production company created 80 years ago by Charlie Chaplin and other top stars who wanted to break free from the studios. "It's in development and rapidly incubating," said Aaron Mendelsohn, a guild board member and co-creator of the "Air Bud" movies. Link.
