The Power of Now - Eckart Tolle
Most people treat the present moment as if it were an obstacle that they need to overcome. Since the present moment is Life itself, it is an insane way to live.

Mac OS 7.6 Instruction Manual
This is my instruction manual for my Apple Performa 6400 purchased in April 1997. What was cool was that it was "internet ready", which sold me on it.

A man who knows how to live
Master Po: He who knows how to live need not fear death. He can walk without fear of rhino or tiger. He will not be wounded in battle.
Young Kwai Chang Caine: How can this be?
Master Po: In him the rhino can find no place to thrust his horn. The tiger, no place to use his claws. And weapons, no place to pierce.
Young Kwai Chang Caine: Why is this so?
Master Po: Because a man who knows how to live, has no place for death to enter.

Clockwork Universe, Time, Reality and Great Filmmakers
The clockwork universe we were taught about by parents primarily — but importantly by friends and the mainstream voices in the media … does not exist. Sorry.
The best filmmakers know this. That’s why their films are so astounding and soul wrenching. If film is a subversive art, then film by these great filmmakers are subverting the clockwork universe one generation at at time.

Laura (1944)
Laura (1944)
Directed by Otto Preminger
A classic film noir masterpiece.
“Film noir is known for its convoluted plots and arbitrary twists, but even in a genre that gave us The Maltese Falcon, this (Laura) takes some kind of prize … That Laura continues to weave a spell—and it does—is a tribute to style over sanity”

The Hughes Brothers
Albert and Allen Hughes, Filmmakers
(Allen Hughes) “The elements have to be right for us to make a movie. If there’s one personality off in that room and, you know, we’ll bow out gracefully. The material doesn’t speak to us on an emotional level - it can be an action movie, it can be great but, you know, it needs to speak to us.
And there will not be another nine years, but I can guarantee one thing, for me - and I’m sure Albert will agree - is that we’re connoisseurs of life. And in between each movie, we go out of our way to actually observe life and interact with real people. And we don’t live in the buffer zone of valet cars and lunches in Hollywood, this, that and the other. So, I think the movies will get better over time. They won’t get worse.”

Interview with Director Werner Herzog 'I Am Clinically Sane'
Werner Herzog is head of the jury at this year's Berlin International Film Festival. He spoke with SPIEGEL ONLINE about why he agreed to judge the competition, his sanity in an insane industry and why his books will outlast his films.
Question: You have a reputation as something of a lone wolf who doesn't look for external validation in the form of awards. And yet here you are at the Berlinale, heading a committee which is going to judge the competition. What's going on?
Herzog: I admit I had to be kind of persuaded to do this. But I see a lot of sense in taking part. Firstly, I thought it was right to return to the Berlinale with a real duty, as a working member of the festival. (Editor's note: When Herzog last appeared at the festival in 1992, his film "Lessons of Darkness" triggered a furious reaction from the audience .) Also, I do believe it makes sense to give awards to films. Last year a young female director from Peru, Claudia Llosa, won the Golden Bear for her film "The Milk of Sorrow." I believe the award is extremely helpful for this young filmmaker. When I was in Peru not long ago, I saw how it has somehow translated into a certain pride for an entire nation. Of course, the other side of the coin, as I've always said, is that films do not really need awards. Prizes are much more something for the agricultural fair, something you give to the best milk cow.

Bell & Howell Filmo № 75
The beautiful Filmo 75 is a 16mm movie camera, produced in Chicago beginning in 1928. It was intended for amateur use, but the quality of its construction makes it easy to see why Bell & Howell cameras were the tools of choice for Hollywood studios in the early days of motion pictures.
Although rather heavy by today's standards, the 75 was quite compact for its time, and was marketed as a ladies' camera. Its ornate leather covering was available in Walnut Brown, Ebony Black, and Silver Birch (seen here).
Truly a work of art.

This shot was taken from a book called "Photography's Beginnings - A Visual History" Featuring the collection of WM. B. Becker 1989 Oakland University.
Original photo was taken in year 1880.
This shot shows dresses bangals and necklaces that wore in that period in Sri Lanka (known as Ceylon at that time). Look at the number of necklaces worn by those women.
