...were disappointed when we found out last year that Polaroid was to cease manufacturing film," says John Buckle, bookshop manager at the Photographers' Gallery in London. "People like the look and feel of Polaroid analog photography. They have a retro look with lovely colors compared with the often bland look of digital photography. [Instant pictures are] also sociable, allowing for the sharing of a real photograph rather than just a small image on a screen." (See pictures of Barack Obama on Flickr...
...With the bland looks of a small-town accountant and an even blander style of oratory, Rudd, 51, doesn't fit the typical mold of an Australian man of action.

...Because not being a rapist is not enough,” writes one member. In a video, another encourages his fellow males to speak out against rape jokes. (Is this the sort of innovative thinking that makes the Harvard man?) But where the site is not merely bland, it is alarmist and misleading. The site provides little in the way of actual rape statistics, except for reporting that, “by most estimates, between one in three to one in five women will experience sexual or domestic violence at the hands of a male friend, partner, spouse, or date...
