24 Stunning HDR Photographs of Abandoned Places
2008-09-21 16:05:00 Something about the vibrant colors, stark contrasts and vivid depths of an HDR approach lends abandonments to HDR photography like few other subjects.

Faces In Places.
2008-08-23 18:32:00 Faces In Places.As its correctly said beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder, perhaps its true how a thing is present and this project makes one perceive it in that particular way. We wouldn't have agreed to this, but it was only until we saw the photo of Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen. We see this toy car most of the time when our son plays with it, but we never saw a face in it until we saw the photo of it. Quite amazing and this comes from 'Faces in Places' - A photographic collection of faces found in everyday places. And here is similar work we came across in past.

Thinking The... People Who Move Places From Alaska Ought To Re-Register The
2008-08-21 00:10:00 When I was a kid, we'd go on vacations and play "The Alphabet Game," where you had to find letters of the alphabet, in order, on signs and license plates, and "The License Plate Game," the goal of which was to find all 50 states' licenses on the trip.I know what you're thinking, too, and the answer is, yes, those were the most creative names we could come up with. If we had invented "Monopoly," it would have been called "The Buying Properties Game."There were always two licenses that were the hardest plates to find: Alaska and Hawaii. They were the hardest because, in the case of Hawaii, who drives a car here from Hawaii? Only those people in Bedknobs and Broomsticks, I presume. Or Speed Buggy.In the case of Alaska, the licenses were hard to find because nobody actually has ever lived in Alaska, or if they did, they were eaten by polar bears.Now, though, Alaska plates are not hard to find; I see them all the time driving around town here in Wisconsin, and not the same car, e...

Google Places An Emphasis On Link Popularity
2008-06-09 07:14:00 Link popularity is by far the most important factor for determining your search engine ranking. You need to know what link popularity is, why it is so important, and how Google evaluates it (over 50% of all search engine traffic comes from Google, and if you can rise to the top of Google, you will rise to the top of all the other search engines as well). But, before we talk about how Google measures linking, we need to cover some basics. Link popularity is defined as the number of sites that are linking to your site. Some websites have thousands or even millions of sites linking to them, while others might have only a few. The search engines use the number of inbound links your site has as a measure of how important your site is, which translates into your search engine ranking. The actual number of links to your site is not the only variable used to calculate your link popularity. The search engines also examine the relevance of the links to the subject matter of your site. For exa...
An Alphabetical Journey of the Places I Went in (and Around) the Twin Citie
2008-06-09 05:32:00 1. Axel's. "You know," I said to the Bryant Lake Bowl audience on Thursday, "Minnesota is nothing like the movie, Fargo," because I hadn't run into anyone as eccentric or at least accented like the characters in the Coen Brothers film. The BLB audience assured me that Fargo was closer to the truth than I had witnessed in my short time in the state, an assertion that was confirmed when I had dinner with Brandon, his mom, and Kellie at Axel's, a fancy steak and seafood restaurant in Mendota, a town with a population of 197, just south of St. Paul. The waitress spoke with the accent and carried Minnesota Nice in every pore on her face. In the car after dinner tonight, Brandon told me to run back in so I could interview her for this blog, but I have to be up at 4:30 tomorrow morning to catch a plane to New York. This bitch is tired.2. Dixie's. Sunday Champagne Brunch here is a real culinary treat, made even more complete with a glorious chocolate fountain that you could dip strawber...

The Story of My Ass
2008-06-07 03:17:00 Once upon a time, there was an old miner who was traveling through the desert with his trusty mule of many years. All of a sudden, the mule fell over dead. The old man buried his old friend and put up a cross as a grave marker. He wrote on the cross, "My Ass". Then he continued on his journey. Years later a town grew nearby the grave. The road into town went right by the marker, so the town adopted the name out of respect for the dead mule, that had taken care of the miner. It had become somewhat of an historical site. Then one day, a traveling salesman, who was lost, wondered into the old desert town, but didn't notice the marker. He saw a man on the street and stopped to get directions. The salesman asked, "Could you please tell me where I am?" "Sure," replied the old man. "You're right on the edge of My Ass." The salesman was puzzled by what the man said, so he decided to ask someone else. He thanked the man and continued to what appe...

Ideal places for gay dating
2008-06-03 06:31:00 Gone are the days when gay dating spots were considered to be gay clubs or gay night clubs. Today, there are many more opportunities for gays to visit when gay dating. As life becomes hectic, gay dating needs to be more relaxing than just adrenaline rushing. Going to gay night clubs is still prevalent but not for many dates. After some dates, people need a change and from the harried gay night clubs they prefer to move towards soothing and calm gay saunas.

Do You Know These Best Places to Meet Girls?
2008-05-30 17:20:00 Sometimes, just knowing where to go in your own city to meet women can be a challenge, especially if you're new in town. It always seems easier to try the online thing, especially if you've just finished unloading the moving truck and you're settling into your new home. But seriously, once you've studied your new surroundings a little and you won't get lost driving from Point A to B to C and then back home, get in your car and check out a few of the following places once you know what you're doing. There are a lot of social settings that cause men and women to congregate in those particular settings. But you want to try and find certain places where more women congregate than men. After all, you're trying to avoid/eliminate as much competition right out of the chute as you can. So why walk into a situation where you feel like a Roman gladiator in an arena full of lions. Even though it may not be your style, check out local area cultural events. When you show up at these, it b...

5 Places Teens Should Look for Summer Employment After Memorial Day
2008-05-28 16:04:00 Due to their lack of experience, teens often encounter challenges while searching for summer jobs. With the school year about to end, many are finding that it’s too late to apply for some summer positions.
