Q: What does the hit 1985 comedy “Back To The Future” have in common with the tense 1960 courtroom drama “Inherit The Wind?”
A: Exteriors for both movies were filmed at Courthouse Square on the back lot of Universal Studios Hollywood--25 years apart.
A long exposure taken while at dinner with my friend Lea the other week. The food at this place is okay, and they have specials on week nights (mostly on drinks-- half price bottles of wine or cocktails or whatever), but their policy on the specials seems to be to charge you full price and if you happen to notice that they didn't put the discount and complain then you win the special price. I'd probably go their more often if they didn't do this, despite the pretentious attitudes, which- along with the fact that the wait and bus staff all dress entirely in black and all seem to come from somewhere in the former Soviet bloc- I find kind of amusing.
I recently refound the Pixies' Trompe du Monde, which I played so much when I first got it that I had to throw the tape out. (As an aside, the song UMass, for someone who spent their middle & high school years in the Pioneer Valley is nothing short of genius). I think that perhaps the proprietors of this joint-- perhaps imagining the restaurant they would design once they left Minsk or whatever-- listened to that album a little too much, and to the song Subbacultcha in particular....
We went out to the clubs, what ass
I was hoping to have her in the sack
I was looking handsome, she was looking like an erotic vulture
I was all dressed in black, she was all dressed up in black (black)
every thing was fine down here
what you call it here
call it what you will here
way down down down in this subbacultcha

The University of Tsukuba, Japan is the star of the 2011 Campus Exhibition. This institution of higher education has long been associated with the festival, and numerous works developed there or created by its alumni have been showcased at Ars Electronica.
"Tsukuba Scope" is a work by Fumiaki Murakami (JP).

Otherwise known as Silent Scope 2, and released as such on the PlayStation 2 (and later part of the "Complete" package on XBox), it's one of the last reasons to spend money at arcades these days mainly because the original iteration has a light-gun rifle attachment with a screen inside the rifle scope.
As I took the shot, one of the employees at Dave & Busters scolded me for not having someone playing the game. No taking pictures of the games... without people in them!

This buck was part of a group of approximately 5 other deer (2 does, 3 fawns) which meandered onto the 150 yard berm of our rifle range. We of course called a cease fire, and while watching the deer calmly feed, I thought I would try to get some pictures by holding my little pocket Kodak digital camera up to my Leupold 15-30x 50mm spotting scope.

In 1925, the Rhea County Courthouse was the scene of the famous Scopes Evolution Trial, in which John Thomas Scopes, a Dayton high school teacher, was tried for teaching that human beings evolved from a lower order of animals. The trial (July 10–July 21, 1925) was covered by H. L. Mencken, world famous journalist, and was reported in newspapers all over the country. William Jennings Bryan, a fundamentalist, served as prosecutor, and Clarence Darrow, well known agnostic, served for the defense. Scopes was convicted and fined $100. On appeal, the decision was reversed by the Tennessee Supreme Court in 1927. The trial raised issues debated for many years: the right of taxpayers to control curriculum, separation of church and state, academic freedom, and the relationship between science and religion. Built in the 1890s, the courthouse has been restored to its 1925 appearance and houses the Scopes Trial Museum.
The best junk scope money can buy! Like new wonderfully outdated Carson refractor telescope with a 50mm aperture, two .965 eyepiece lenses (4mm and 20mm), star diagonal, tripod, moon filter and lockable aluminum carry case. Cost: $42.00 at a local antique store.
Actually, I plan on giving this scope to my grandchildren to learn how to use a finder scope, interchangeable lenses, use of a tripod, etc.
On an educational note, Galileo's telescope was 50mm. Fun!
My lovely mare :-)

I think random photo shoots are my favourite. :)
This is another way that I take pictures of the night sky. Seen here is the Losmandy GM-8 mount and tripod. This allows the camera to track the sky over the course of the night, avoiding star trails. On this mount is the DUPS - a side-by-side platform that holds the camera and the guidescope. The guidescope is the Stellarvue SV70. My Pentax K10D camera with the 300 mm lens is mounted on the Manfrotto lens support.
Taken with on-board flash (ick!) as the light was fading.
