Here’s a look back to 1973 when Paul Simon immortalized Kodachrome film (and the Nikon camera) with this tongue-in-cheek song. He sure seemed to be a prophet since unfortunately mama did take the Kodachrome away in 2009…
Kodachrome, they give us those nice bright colors
They give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world’s a sunny day, oh yeah
I got a Nikon camera, I love to take a photograph
So mama don’t take my Kodachrome away
Late to the party? Party doesn’t start without you? Think again… in this tongue in cheek video about the hottest here-to-stay trend in digital cameras. It’s a joke, but like all good jokes, there’s usually an element of truth in them.

No, it’s not! Though many of our neighbors to the south think of Canada like this block of ice up North. It’s in fact NASA’s latest high resolution image of the Arctic, Europe, and Asia. How high resolution? Is 11,000 x 11,000 pixels high enough for you?

The galactic war is over and what’s an out-of-work Stormtrooper to do?
Paul French, dressed as a Star Wars Stormtrooper, is on a 4,000 kilometre [earth] trek across Australia, from Perth to Sydney. If you see him, honk but a ride you shall not offer — unless you have a storm trooper bike. Otherwise, his plan is to walk 35-40 kilometres a day, 5 days a week, until he reaches Sydney around Christmas.
This Stormtrooper has definitely gone to the right side of the force, aiming to raise money for the Starlight Children’s Foundation.
Even Obiwan Kanobi would agree that “There’s something to see here and this is the stormtrooper you’re looking for!”
