Taken from urban dictionary. Pretty much sums up our "beloved" Prime Minister 5 years in power.

badawi
   
badawi baa-daa-wee (noun): To start something full of promises but ends in disappointment, failure and/or disaster.

I'm trusting you to perform this task well… don't do a badawi, ok?

Whatever I do, I will always find a way to badawised it.'

France badawied their Euro 2008 campaign. England pre-badawied theirs, while Italy were guilty of over-badawification.

Ever wanted your kid to grow up and become a Formula 1 driver? Millionaire, supermodel as girl friend and champagne lifestyle are standard for all F1 drivers. You better start training him since a baby and you certainly need one of this. The world first carbon fiber skin high grain leather seat stroller, by Maclaren. No, it has nothing to do with the Mclaren F1 team. Just a naming coincident.

The features are as followed.

• Carbon fibre skin for strength and style (same material F1 car made of)
• 4 reclining seat positions
• Footmuff with ultra-plush faux fur liner keeps baby warm and cosy. Also provides luxurious padding for entire length of the seat.
• 5 point harness for added security (requirement for F1 car)
• Removable washable seat
• Compact umbrella fold
• Water resistant hood
• High-performance aluminum frame
• Handy mesh shopping basket
• Carry strap for easy portability
• 5 second one-hand fold (faster than pit stop)
• Ergonomically optimized, foam insulated handles (it gets hot when racing)
• Lockable, front swivel wheels (to prevent skid)
• Weight 6.3kg only (ultra light is a must for F1 car)

Amazon is selling USD999.95

The point is if you can't afford one of this, chances are you won't be able to afford training him to become a F1 driver.

The world is full of strange things and this is one of them.

The first thing in mind when Steve Jobs designed iPhone is to get rid the annoying stylus, yet there's actually a company that produces stylus, specifically for iPhone. WTF!?!

Meet Pogo.

Below description is taken from Pogo website.

"The sleek design of the Pogo Stylus features an ultra-light aluminum body with an anodized finish and laser graphics. The soft tip glides easily over the surface of the display, making it fun and easy to sketch, draw characters, or just slide to unlock. Sized for accuracy, it does away with the awkward typos and misfires common to fingertip-only use. Eliminating fingers has the added benefit of keeping the screen free of smudges and grease. Designed to firmly hug the contours of the iPhone 3G, the Pogo Stylus travel clip will keep your stylus close at hand."

Here's my message to Pogo.

1. I have ten naturally gifted "Apple Stylus" on my hands and they are called FINGERS!
2. I do not have OCD (Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder).
3. Use a Window Mobile device if you are so obsess with stylus.
4. Don't worry, no one is going to imitate your stylus.

5. Even a pigeon can do it. Shame on you? I am going to train my hamster soon.

By the way, it costs USD19.95.

Olympus announced the Micro Four Third Standard, but turn out Panasonic is the first to debut Micro 4/3 camera - Lumix G1.

What excites me is not the compactness. It comes in three different colors! Black, blue and red. The traditional color for DSLR has always been silver and black. I don't recall there's any DSLR with such stylish appearance. No doubt this is a marketing strategy to attract a different group of customers as Panasonic has successfully implement on compact camera.

There's a catch though. Lumix G1 is not a DSLR as I have explained in previous post. Thus honor for first colorful DSLR is still up for grab. Canon, Nikon what you waiting for? I would love to see a red Canon, yellow Nikon, orange Sony, blue Olympus and green Pentax in the future.

If you are given a multiple choice question, "What is the most practical method for aerial photography?"

A. Throw and parachute
B. Kite
C. Balloon
D. Train an eagle
E. Hire a chopper

Commonsense tells me is E, and for most professional aerial photographer, this is the only way of doing it, until now.

Meet Dragonfly.

No, I am not talking about the RC toy.

I mean serious industrial aerial surveillance system.

The Draganflyer X6 helicopter utilizes an innovative six-rotor co-axial design, able to maneuver quickly and precisely. The Draganflyer X6 is small enough to fly indoors where other full-size helicopters or airplanes can't, yet is large enough to fly outdoors in winds up to 30km/h (18mph). Not only does the unique design maximize thrust, it also minimizes sound output. At hover the Draganflyer X6 produces less than 65dB of sound at one meter (3 feet), and less than 60dB at three meters (9 feet). It can be controlled manually using handheld flight controller or by GPS. The whole thing is built up using Carbon Fiber, making it extremely light weight to transport to work station. Powered by lithium polymer battery, it allows flight time up to 25mins and recharging the battery only takes 30mins.

The best part is the Base Station Case contain a laptop computer for viewing real-time streaming video from the X6 helicopter, viewing telemetry, and for storing video and images. No blind shooting. What you see is what you get!

It can be configured for different applications. Aerial photography, HD Video, emergency services, military surveillance and many more.

The only problem is this ain't some RC flying toy. Price starts from USD14,995. By the way, DSLR and professional camcorder not supported. For serious aerial photo/videographer, please remain seated in the big bird.
