Right now John and I are sharing his digital camera. Anything we take on our cell phones is easily Bluetooth-ed to our respective computers but any photos taken on the same camera can prove to be an issue. When it up to my computer I don’t really want all his 20 pictures, I just want my 5. The problem is, iPhoto wants to just import everything, I cannot choose what I want to import, as I could easily do with my Windows PC.
So before I start cursing at iPhoto – is there any way you can pick and chose the items you want to import off your digital camera instead of always doing an “import all”??
Update: Thanks to John Biehler, I have now discovered the beauty and freedom of Image Capture. Soon enough I’ll learn my lesson – Macs aren’t dumb and they know what they’re doing, I just don’t know everything about them… yet 😛
First I have to say thank you to Rob for posting this and noting it’s Surrey AND Delta since Scott Rd and 72nd is in fact the border.
This video is not of people in Vancouver, driving down the shmoozy Robson Street. It’s on a busy street corner in the suburbs, where hundreds of people were out celebrating when the Canucks beat the Stars last week to enable them to move on to round two of the playoffs.
If you live in Vancouver, this will give you chills. If you don’t live in Vancouver… you have to know the heart of this team’s fans is not solely located in the downtown core – it’s everywhere.
Get Connected is the ultimate guide to getting your business connected with technology. Each week host Mike Agerbo and co-hosts AJ Vickery and Yolande Lougheed are going look at what’s hot and why.
Dave alone has about five podcast, while John and I have two – although we’ve been slacking on the RadioZoom lately – and we’re all avid bloggers. I’m pretty uncertain as to the content of the show, what we’ll be asked or asked to talk about but it should be some great exposure for our group project and podcasting as a medium. Listen Live on CKNW, today from 1:00pm today, and we should be on around 1:30pm.
In Episode #33 we’re all on the line to discuss Game 7 and our thoughts going into game 1 of the Anaheim series (Dave, John, JJ, Alanah and me).
Yesterday, we posted a special Episode #34 where Alanah interviewed Earl Sleek, Ducks blogger from the site: Battle of California. She also gets JJ’s thoughts after the 5-1 loss in the first game of this Conference Semi-Final. Notes on both episodes are below:
Episode #33
“A quick turnaround from the last posting, the whole crew gathers to give their rundown on the upcoming series against the Anaheim Ducks in round two of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Of course, we have to bask in the celebration a little bit longer of beating Dallas in game seven, but the attention gets turned towards the upcoming battle against the Ducks. It should be a beaut!” (Run Time 27:30, click for mp3 or visit the site to subscribe, for show notes, and links)
Episode #34
“…on the phone after he attended the game at the Honda Center in Anaheim – Sleek gives his perspective on the series opener as well as the Canucks fan presence at the game. The second half of this episode, Alanah links up with J.J. by phone to get his thoughts on the game.
Can you tell the difference between the two segments? Listening to J.J., you would never have known that the Canucks lost this game. Here’s to a better game two! ” (Run Time 16:59, click for mp3 or visit the site to subscribe, for show notes, and links)
The Canucks are in action tonight for Game 2 at 7:00pm Pacific time.
If you’re a fan of the hit reality show, The Amazing Race like I am then you know about Phil Keoghan. For 11 seasons now he’s been leading teams all over the world, to over 70 countries, in massive adventure race – introducing us to the various cities, explaining tasks and greeting sweaty, stinky teams at the mat to check them in at the end of each leg.
Canadians have long wanted to participate on the show but you need an American passport, so local races such as The Amazing Hunt will have to keep people like me going, for now. Phil’s actually moving his new show “NOW” over to the CBC and the good news is this time – Canadians are more than welcome.
If your life were to end at 3pm tomorrow what would you regret not doing? And why haven’t you done it? Does fear stand in your way? Or are you stuck in the same routine day after day?
Taking on a NOW Challenge is about accomplishing in 72 hours something you have never thought possible and probably taken every measure to avoid. It’s about turning thought into action and your fears inside out. There’s no more woulda, coulda, shoulda. It’s time to live life NOW.
In search of participants, Phil is touring around various Canadian cities so that means of course, that means he’s coming to Vancouver, making it one of 8 stops across the nation (for more dates, visit Inside The CBC blog).
“[Phil brings] his spin-off show No Opportunity Wasted to the CBC in October — and casting has begun for that series. In each half-hour episode, two people get challenged to set aside fears to achieve a specific task. Keoghan says he came up with the idea for the series’ philosophy after a near-fatal scuba diving accident in his native New Zealand when he was 19 years old. [NOW]”
The local search for show participants occurs: May 16, 7 pm to 9 pm at Chapters, 788 Robson, Vancouver
They start out in Newfoundland on May 8th and Vancouver will be the last stop. Although I’d love to go, just to meet Phil but I don’t think I’d want to get in the way of those trying out for the show. For some inspiration, read the blog on the NOW website and see the personal stories that have been shared thus far. Also, you can also pick up the book that started this all, I suppose while you’re in Chapters on May 16th, “No Opportunity Wasted: 8 Ways to Create a List for the Life You Want” by Phil Keoghan.
*Special thanks to Kevin who tipped me off about NOW via the Contact Form, and on the Amazing Race blog.
