57th anniv. of Nagasaki bomb

AP: Nagasaki anniversary marked. The mayor of Nagasaki lashes out at the US for reversing efforts toward global nuclear missile disarmament.

This story mentions the number of people killed by the atom bombs dropped in Japan during WWII. I hadn't heard the figures before. They are huge. Scary huge.

RE: No pictures

Two years and two months ago, I said I wouldn't be able to continue the daily pictures on my site until I had a digital camera.

For those of you who didn't visit HBWT in early 2000, for a few months I had a little picture for each day on the weblog. Here's an example, from the Wayback Machine.

Fast forward to last night: my dream of having a digital camera of my own finally came true! We went to London Drugs at Tillicum Mall and picked up a Nikon Coolpix 4500! I'm really happy about getting this camera -- I drooled over the 900 series for 2 years now, which the 4500 belongs to by virtue of form-factor.

Maybe this weekend I'll find the time to redesign HBWT again to allow for daily pictures. Fun fun!
