I’m still new to the whole cast iron skillet thing. I like how versatile it is. This isn’t much of a recipe more than a procedure.
Ingredients
- 2-4 Pork Chops, bone or no bone, roughly 1-inch thick
- Olive Oil
- Salt & Pepper

Had the honor of taking photos of my niece for her one month anniversary. I’ve never done a “new baby” photoshoot before, but I took it as a challenge. I knew what type of shots I wanted to do — and what shots I didn’t want to do (eg Sofia in a hallowed-out watermelon a la Anne Geddes… blech).
The challenge was in post-production. I’m in love with the film look that many photographers are mimicking. It softens the photo and adds a lot more character to the subject. It took many hours to get what I wanted… and I don’t think it’s fully there… but it’s close. I can’t wait to do more photoshoots like this to get more practice at post-production.
There are some tutorials out there similar to this, but WordPress has since updated their media uploader, making those tutorials obselete. This code is essentially a combination of the best ones I’ve found
Javascript
first, you’ll want to save this code into a .js file, say “uploader.js”

i’m not getting a ps4. i’m quite content with my ps3 — except for when either it overheats or the controllers decide to randomly push buttons for me when i’m playing a game.
not cool at all. especially when i’m on a breakaway down the pitch and my player decides to boot it into the stands sitting in the sideline (fifa)
this has happened to me before… it’s quite annoying. i used to think that it may have been interference effing with the connection from controller to ps3… but apparently it’s the contacts within the controller itself
to the youtubes! i found this great video tutorial, discussing the problem and also the solution. all i really needed was electrical tape and a jeweler’s screwdriver

so i’ve been using this wordpress plugin that will help your site become multilingual called qTranslate. it’s awesome. it allows you to add different translations for menus, posts, pages, widgets, etc with a little bit of effort (of course, every project is different, some php coding may be required). here’s a fairly quick startup guide
the thing is, we only need the plugin for a set of pages and that’s it… not the most ideal solution, but it’s working… or was
i found a random issue that no amount of googling could resolve… every page that didn’t require translation would display fine except for the below snippet of code
essentially, the code was using “get_posts” to display a page within a page (almost inception-like)
so i’ve been running into a nagging issue with wordpress’ new instance of its media uploader (released in v3.5)
if i had a meta box with an image uploader, it would conflict with the standard “Add Media” button for the editor
previous code
uploader.js
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
var form_field;
jQuery('.button-upload').click(function() {
form_field = '#' + jQuery(this).next('input').attr('id');
tb_show('', 'media-upload.php?type=image&TB_iframe=true');
return false;
});
window.send_to_editor = function(html) {
imgurl = jQuery('img',html).attr('src');
if(!imgurl){
imgurl = jQuery(html).attr('src');
}
if (jQuery(form_field).length > 0) {
jQuery(form_field).val(imgurl);
}
tb_remove();
}
});
i’ve seen a few good doppelgängers in my day… but they’re always qualified with a “but” e.g. “that looks like ‘so and so,’ but fatter”
there’s a good one at ballast point — one of the chicks that works there looks like rashida jones
over the weekend, i spotted the doppelgänger to end all doppelgängers — he essentially was THREE people Read more »
