To celebrate the 200th birthday of the invention of the camera, photographer Dennis Manarchy built one of his own. It looks just like a classic film camera with a wooden frame, leatherette, and brass hardware but, oddly, I don ;t remember cameras normally being 35-feet long. Dubbed The Eye of America, this enormous, trailer-mounted camera is will snap portraits of notable do-gooders around the country during a 20,000 miles tour of the USA. Despite a large plasma screen mounted on the back end of the camera鈥攕o that the public can observe as pictures are taken鈥攊t is a real film camera.

In Sapphire and stanley spain Steel, the stanley taza ghosts always represent the past or future breaking through and disrupting the present, due to the malicious nature of time. The time-displaced cannot be reasoned with, they can only be exorcised, just like other ghosts.
