Rainbow with Waterfall - www.StareClips.com London's Most Beautiful Bookstore Older London's Most Beautiful Bookstore by Christine Chang Hanway Issue 56 · In the Library · January 24, 2013 Newer In 2009, literary agents Sarah Lutyens and Felicity Rubinstein opened their Notting Hill bookshop (named after their eponymous literary agency, Lutyens & Rubinstein) on a simple premise: to recreate the magic they remembered from the bookshops of their childhoods. With more than 4,000 hand-picked titles, a visit to Luytens & Rubinstein is like popping into your favorite boutique where you feel a kindred spirit with the owner; implicitly trusting their judgment and knowing with full confidence that you’ll be going home with that perfect something you went in for. Unless otherwise noted, photography by Dennis Gilbert /View. Above: Lutyens & Rubinstein is on Kensington Park Road in London's Notting Hill.

Ten Things You Can Do with CSS (That You Might Not Have Known You Could Do) 1. Transparent Backgrounds If you're doing anything in, on, or around Web design, you probably already know the basics of using Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). But just learning a few rules doesn't mean you know everything. There are many subtle (and not-so-obvious) techniques that combine CSS capabilities in ways to get some striking design effects. Jason Cranford Teague shows you 10 of his favorite things to do with CSS (that you might not have known you could do). If you are doing anything in, on, or around Web design, you probably already know the basics of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). But learning a few rules doesn’t mean you know everything. One of the great frustrations of Web design is integrating text into graphics without having to resort to "baking" the text directly into the art—that is, using a program like Photoshop to create graphic text.

Main Page - FreeOsZoo Tech & Tonic & What code DOESN'T do in real life (That it does in the movies) As a nod to my days of old and hours and days (read: I’m downplaying that figure a lot) spent whiled away in World of Warcraft or Counter-Strike, I’ve got to reference this new, and actually extremely cool, piece of news that hit the wires just a few hours ago. Big Blue (IBM for those not hip to the lingo) has just announced that they will be developing and opening 12 islands in the massively multiplayer online (MMO) game Second Life. Some of the new possibilities which I would say may become SOP within about five years time are things like off-site training (demonstrations in game — can you call it a game anymore?), marketing campaigns and community outreach as PR ploys in these cyber worlds (haven’t settled on a term yet), and e-commerce … in a virtual world. Whoa. Check out the full story on Yahoo! As a courtesy, I’ve ripped off a screen capture from Yahoo! P.S.
A dog named Sex When I went to City Hall to renew my dog's license, I told the clerk I wanted a license for Sex. He said, I'd like one, too! Then I said, But this is a dog. He said he didn't care what she looked like. When I got married and went on my honeymoon, I took my dog with me. He said, You don't need a special room for Sex. Well, one day, I entered Sex in a contest, but before the competition began, the dog got loose and ran away. Another contestant asked me why I was just standing there, looking disappointed. Well, my wife and I decided to separate, so we went to court to fight for custody of the dog. I said to the judge, I had Sex before I was married. Then I told him that after I was married, Sex left me. Well, last night Sex ran away again, and I spent hours looking all over town for him. I said, I'm looking for Sex. My case comes up on Friday. ~anonym~
