STUFF

• News: New Words for the Merriam-Webster Dictionary. 100 new entries for the 2008 edition. 'Air Quotes', 'Fanboy', and 'Mental Health Day' to name a few.
• Today's Tech Pic of the Week is from Austin of Syracuse, NY. And he checked with his local law enforcement to make sure he wasn't breaking any laws.

• Scott found a list on digg.com from webupon.com of 10 Interactive Websites. After watching the news this morning he had to add one more. Crime Reports.
• This week's question is from Kevin of Central Cali:
I have a home-brew HTPC attached to my LCD TV. The problem is that I always seem to have an A/V sync issue with any video I play. I know this is caused by a slight lag in my audio receiver processing the signal. I can find fixes to recode the video files individually, but I'm hoping for a system-wide fix. Any solutions?
One piece of equipment to check out is the Felston DD740.
