Like most digital cameras in this class, it comes with an automatic PHD (push here, dummy) mode, which takes gorgeous photos--up to four a second. Every aspect of taking a picture can also be isolated and tweaked, satisfying even the pro. Indeed, Kupcake was so blown away, he might buy one himself. "I could shoot professionally with this frickin' camera," he said, looking at me sadly. With digital cameras improving so fast and getting so cheap, so could...
...their convention in Minnesota gets under way, Republicans are feeling a little better. Barack Obama hasn't blown the presidential race wide open, as many expected.

Days after the cease-fire was agreed, the Russian army was still destroying military and civilian targets; the Georgian government accused it of inexplicably setting fire to vast tracts of woodland. In South Ossetia, the looting and deliberate destruction of ethnic Georgian villages mean that the two populations - Georgian and Ossetian - will not any time soon live side by side, as they had for centuries...
