How about this picture. Pretty incredible assuming it's not photoshoped. Here is the whole BBC article. Apparently this picture won first prize in the Science and Technology Singles category of the World Press Photo 2000 contest. It shows an F/18 hornet at the moment of breaking the sound barrier.
Holy shit, did any one else catch the database going down? I almost had a heart attack. It was only down for about 2 minutes (that I saw at least, but I think that's right) but it sure puts a crimp in your dynamic site to not be able to get the data out of the base. Lucky for us, this hosting company seems to be ON THE BALL. Everything is back, and everything appears fine. Guess I better learn some more about that back-up function!
Nice day for dratfink (and it's not even 11:30.) I checked out that trailervision link (couldn't resist the upgraded rating it got) but alas my poor machine is a little too slow. I waited for about 20% of ModeMan to download, so I got to see that much at least. Very funny. I've thought before that movie trailers are really the heart of movie making. Aren't most movies way too long? It's a sort of Borgesian take on making art ("Why would I take 400 pages to say what I can say in 3?") I usually hate trailers because they give away the whole story, but if you turn that around and only give me the trailer - well, we might have something there. (Plus, if I was going to watch a movie on the net, say, at work, I certainly wouldn't want it to be 3 hours long. A minute and a half seems about right.) Thanks Dave.
