Photography
I'm a Photographer...



"Photography is under attack. Across the country it that seems anyone with a camera is being targeted as a potential terrorist, whether amateur or professional, whether landscape, architectural or street photographer.

Not only is it corrosive of press freedom but creation of the collective visual history of our country is extinguished by anti-terrorist legislation designed to protect the heritage it prevents us recording."

That font looks familiar...

Ah yes:



Simlar.

Bike
Honda EVO6 concept bike




Honda reckon they'll start producing this one (the engine is taken from their 1832 cc (christ on a stick) Goldwing engine.
If it stays close to the concept, it'll be a very pretty bike indeed, huh?

Ganked from Bike Exif.
Music
New Music File Format

The record industry attempts once again to disappear up its own greedy orifice by trying to bring out a replacement for all those MP3's we have:

"Forget WAV, MP3 and M4A - major labels have something new in mind, and it's called CMX. Sony, Warner, Universal and EMI are reportedly preparing a new digital album format that will include songs, lyrics, videos, liner notes and artwork."

Ganked from The Guardian

I have to wonder why they called it CMX, when another nice name like FAIL would have suited it much better. Forward thinking Apple are working on one of their own, called Cocktail.

Ridiculous.
Religion
Uhm, yeah, right...

So just how kooky is Scientology? This kooky:

"According to Scientology, when a person dies - or, in Scientology terms, when a thetan abandons its physical body - they go to a "landing station" on the planet Venus, where the thetan is re-implanted and told lies about its past life and its next life. The Venusians take the thetan, "capsule" it, and send it back to Earth to be dumped into the ocean off the coast of California."

Yup, that's kooky on a high level of kookiness.

Word is Will Smith has set up a private school for young children where a few of the staff are Scientologists. Way to go, fresh prince.
