Rant: Ethical Journalism
I sometimes like to rail against news outlets and journalists for their shoddy reporting. It’s not that I think that all journalists have an agenda.

Papercraft Friday #4: Link and the King of Red Lions
Time for a gaming model! This one comes from Ninjatoes’ Papercraft Webpage and is from The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. Excellent looking model that is nicely detailed.

Papercraft Friday #3: Notre-Dame de Paris
This week we move from the realm of figure papercraft to that of architecture papercraft. This is what I traditionally think of as papercraft, having started down the papercraft avenue with the likes of Alan Rose‘s excellent “World at Your Feet” series, such as the Japanese Pagoda.

PC Finally Fights Back?
According to the Wall Street Journal, Microsoft is FINALLY responding to the “Mac vs PC” ads that Apple has been running for the past few years. What took them so long?? Apple has been running its successful Get A Mac campaign since 2006. Microsoft, like the Titanic heading for an iceberg, took 2 years to…
