Springsteen ~ March 6th

berner — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 08:00:58 +0000

The Boss is dropping his 17th studio effort, “Wrecking Ball,” on March 6, and has pushed out the music video to the album’s first single, “We Take Care of Our Own.”

If you watch it, you’ll notice that Springsteen wants to make sure you catch what he’s saying: The lyrics flash across the screen as he sings in the background, “Wherever this flag’s flown/we take care of our own/from Chicago to New Orleans, from the muscle to the bone/from the shotgun shack to the Super Dome/There ain’t no help, the Calvary stayed home/There ain’t no one hearing the bugle blowin’/we take care of our own.”

Says Springsteen’s manager, Jon Landau, in a statement on the artist’s website, “Bruce has dug down as deep as he can to come up with this vision of modern life. The lyrics tell a story you can’t hear anywhere else and the music is his most innovative in recent years.”

“Wrecking Ball” contains 11 tracks of fresh music, and a special edition of the disc will also contain two bonus recordings.

This Thursday at 5:00PM CDIA in DC will be holding the following event:

Sony XQD

berner — Sat, 14 Jan 2012 08:00:24 +0000

Sony XQD Memory Card:
Unlike the SDHC, SDXC, and UHS-1 classifications for SD cards, the XQD builds on no standard before it — it’s a completely new standard in tech and in its physical format. Eventually, products formerly using the popular compact flash format will likely update product lines with XQD compatibility as models become updated, but for now, those getting the Nikon D4 (the only camera currently announced to accept the new format) will have to invest in a new kind of card (though they can use their usual CF cards in a second slot). In the long run, I could see the XQD phasing out the CF card, but both will likely live in tandem for quite some time. Thankfully, I’ve read that one advantage of the XQD format is lower manufacturing cost. Hopefully this will be passed onto the consumer in the end (at least to some extent, it seems as though it is, according to prices announced in the press release). Still, the CF card feels substantial your hand. It’s there. Even if SD cards were as unbreakable, I doubt many pros would prefer a card much smaller simply because it’s important to feel the confidence that a CF card gives. The XQD card isn’t too different, based on photos, but it’s a change. I hope it doesn’t change too much — CF cards are already easy enough to lose track of.
In the end, I fear this may be the future:

Pricing info: 16GB XQD for $129.99, 32GB XQD for $229.99, both available at the end of January.
