Largest Storage Device to date - excluding the Human Brain.

What a remarkable—and at times sobering—era to be living in. The pace of innovation continues to amaze me. Our pursuit of faster, bigger, and more powerful technology seems almost boundless. Now IBM has introduced a storage device capable of holding 120 petabytes of data —that’s roughly 24 million MP3 files , or about 120,000,000 gigabytes for those who think in those terms. It makes you pause and wonder… who will be the first to step up and fill such a digital “black hole”?

High definition imaging

The Power of High-Definition Imaging This high-definition crowd photo—captured just before the Vancouver riots—demonstrates just how far imaging technology has come. The level of detail is remarkable, making it possible to distinguish individual faces within an enormous crowd. Take a moment to explore it yourself. As you zoom in, the clarity continues to hold—revealing more and more detail the closer you look. Here’s the link to the image—see how far you can go: https://www.blogger.com/blog/post/edit/6778805424205502742/1175120624800724372?hl=en#

Little Cottonwood Creek

Little Cottonwood Creek , a photo by jbdavies on Flickr. Didn't know this existed. Nice shot. Plan a little excursion there. I'd say this was about 10-20 second exposure at f16-22. Could have some NDs on this to, and of course a tripod.

NATO Attacks Water Supply, Libyan Civilian Population Targeted, War On Libya

Welcome to the New World Order or NWO... This and more can be expected by the New World Government. As the NWO Jedi waves it's hand and says to the people of the world, "we are benevolent soldiers for the world, we are doing what is good for you, for the human condition."  Wake up people of the world, don't be controlled - for that is the master of this world's plan, to take from you the inherent liberty given to us and call it freedom (laws), and then take away that freedom, and call it justice (how the law is interpreted), and then remove justice, and call it compassion (you can no longer think for yourselves, someone else must step in), and remove compassion and call it progress (the implementation of an agenda by the minority).  The water is heating up, and we are the frogs. It is a lie. See this for what it is - CONTROL OVER SOCIETY .  Watch for when a liberty is characterized as a freedom - those that claim this is progress have been duped or are working f...

On my way home today...

On my way home today from work the view from my car window was a sight to behold.  Moving my hand to my trusty iPhone, invoking the Camera+ app I become very fond of, I took this picture while going down I-215.   Later I dropped by the Macey's grocery store and noticed another beautiful, as well as patriotic site of a giant American flag waving the wind.  I have become impressed with what the iPhone can produce.

Ron Paul has my vote

Image
I've supported Ron Paul for 9 years.  He has integrity and believes in keeping America free - ask yourself if he is for control, or for freedom. Read about him. Then consider your personal beliefs of evil and good. Vote your conscience , not your party .  Do what you feel is good for this country - my vote is Ron Paul.

This is embarrassing. If this doesn't tell you what  is coming for the world currency there are at least another hundred reasons why it should.
