Snow's Coming Soon to Big Bear!

Winter Fun Coming Soon

Snowmaking is underway at Snow Summit and Bear Mountain. Typically, the resorts open mid to late November but with this this cold spell and great snowmaking weather, Bear Mountain could possibly open Central Park Run in the near future. Snow Summit is stockpiling snow in preparation of future cold snaps. We will announce Summit's expected open date as we get closer to the winter season.

BK unveils septa-patty Windows 7 Whopper



Burger King in Japan is so thrilled about Microsoft's new Windows 7 operating system that it's cooked up a giant seven-patty Whopper in honor of it. According to Engadget, it will be available for seven days only, and the first 30 customers can buy it for 777 yen (that's about $8.50). For latecomers, it will cost 1,450 yen (about $17). It's not clear whether the sandwich will make it to the U.S., where rogue BK employees now seem lame for making four-patty "Quoppers" for their friends.

The Punch Camera





The Punch Camera by designer Matty Martin.

The PUNCH takes regular digital images but allows its users to physically punch a rasterized image of their photo. The punched image gives information which can connect its users to the digital gallery.
"This is a camera which was inspired by the loss of tangible memories. It is meant to connect both physical and digital while minimizing excess materials and the hardships in sharing images."
