So it's the day after Valentine's day and you forgot to do something nice for your S.O. You're in the doghouse. What to do? Try the Acme Candy Heart Generator. Guaranteed to work. Submitted by Ed.

Also if you're stuck for some lovey-dovey fonts while making that card? Try these Cute and Romantic fonts. There's a popup, but I guess it's the price you pay for free fonts. While you're at it, here's another pretty cool free font site.

Here's a page by people after my own heart. The Apostrophe Protection Society seeks to prevent the most heinous misuses of that little fleck of ink. God I hate apostrophe abuse.

I've been a bit critical of Mario Lemieux's decisions to sit out games while the Pens struggle. This article talks about why he did it, and I pretty much agree with its conclusions.

Here's a page from Lankus: this guy takes common oil filters and cuts them up, then comments on the relative merits of their designs. But we always new the Fram orange filters sucked, right?

We've been getting a lot of Sircam-infected emails lately. It seems to have come from a reader's Web cache, so be on the lookout for suspicious email, and remember, don't open those attachments or you deserve every bit of pain you get.

Well, it was technically yesterday, but Gung Hee Fat Choy nonetheless. Or should I say Gung Hee Fat Tuesday? Anyway, it is now the year 4699. Or is it 4700? Anyway, hope it's a good year for you ...

I finally got around to starting up the Rebait section. The concept is to compile a listing that shows which manufacturers make good on rebates and which ones stiff you. Please submit your experiences to us.

Going to try early morning posting since I never seem to get home early enough.

Comes now the latest review of the Plextor 40x cd-rw. I remember when 40x was a fast speed for a cd-rom. My 12x feels so limp now.

Yes, despite the lack of posts, content-gathering was going on. The AFC defeated the NFC 38-30 in this year's Pro Bowl. Check out the photo gallery here.

Foveon, a company that has been doing professional digital imaging for a bit, has announced an entirely new image capture technology that might just revolutionize the digital camera world. Foveon's X3 sensor is a new design that can sense one color (R, G, or B) at EACH SENSING SITE on the sensor. This is different from traditional Bayer-pattern sensors, which can only sense ONE color at each site. Because of this, while a normal sensor has to use interpolation to "fill in the gaps" in the sensed colors, the X3 sensor does not need to and can achieve much higher resolutions on the same size chip. In layman's terms? A 3 megapixel X3 sensor captures as much information as if the sensor were 12-16 megapixels!

Sigma is the first customer for the X3 chip, and their new digital SLR is slated to be announced at PMA in two weeks. X3 is truly exciting stuff, and if it lives up to expectations, it WILL become the standard, and probably very quickly.
