Of most interest to photographers will of course be Photoshop CS4, which brings some interface changes (tabbed windows) as well as 64-bit Windows support and OpenGL support to use graphics cards to speed up operations (and provide nifty zoom and rotation tools) and a new non-modal approach to adjustment layers.

Siggraph 2008 at the LA Convention Center is all about 3D! Not that it hasn't always been, it's just that expect 3D glasses from Dolby to be the in-thing next year when most movies dive into the technology. We've seen this phenomenon start this year, but when home theater screens and high-definition creep into consumers' homes - theater owners and movie producers need to find a way to keep audiences running to the theatre. They even previewed Star Wars Episode 4 in 3D! Awesome! See you this December in Singapore and next year in New Orleans!

mayaherrera.com: UP is home to a student population that looks at the world and cares. It is easy to see pictures of protesting students and dismiss it as radicalism. But there are few campuses in this country where students go beyond a passing curiosity about what is happening in the world beyond their own lives. Character is not molded by speeches or long classes in ethics or theology. Character grows from within. It begins by being handed the keys to your own self and being told you are in charge; you now have power over yourself and your own actions – and with that power, you take on responsibilities.
