M and M's Combat Whenever I get a package of plain M&Ms, I make it my duty to continue the strength and robustness of the candy as a species. To this end, I hold M&M duels. Taking two candies between my thumb and forefinger, I apply pressure, squeezing them together until one of them cracks and splinters. I have found that, in general, the brown and red M&Ms are tougher, and the newer blue ones are genetically inferior. Occasionally I will get a mutation, a candy that is misshapen, or pointier, or flatter than the rest. When I reach the end of the pack, I am left with one M&M, the strongest of the herd. This week they wrote back to thank me, and sent me a coupon for a free 1/2 pound bag of plain M&Ms. There can be only one.
Showcase of Parallax Scrolling Effects in Web Design The parallax illusion is one of the coolest effects to hit the world of web design. This showcase rounds up the best examples of websites that have a scrolling parallax effect. Some use the effect to add a subtle treat to the website’s background, whereas others use the parallax effect more prominently to create an exciting browsing experience. The parallax effect has been around for years in classic video games, but came into trend in the web design community when it was implemented into the background of the Silverback app website. This showcase of examples pulls together some of the latest and best vertical and/or scrolling parallax effects in web design, starting with the ever popular Nike Better World website.

why americans should never be allowed to travel I had someone ask for an aisle seats so that his or her hair wouldn't get messed up by being near the window. A client called in inquiring about a package to Hawaii. After going over all the cost info, she asked, "Would it be cheaper to fly to California and then take the train to Hawaii?" I got a call from a woman who wanted to go to Capetown. I started to explain the length of the flight and the passport information when she interrupted me with "I'm not trying to make you look stupid, but Capetown is in Massachusetts. A man called, furious about a Florida package we did. I got a call from a man who asked, "Is it possible to see England from Canada?" Another man called and asked if he could rent a car in Dallas. A nice lady just called. A woman called and asked, "Do airlines put your physical description on your bag so they know who's luggage belongs to who?" I just got off the phone with a man who asked, "How do I know which plane to get on?"

Scott Haefner‘s Kite Aerial Photography Testing to make sure the shutter is being triggered by the radio control before letting go. You can see the camera hanging from the kite line in the shadow. Recent Photos Background I’ve been interested in photography for as long as I can remember, and kite aerial photography (KAP) seemed like a natural progression. Although I had not flown a kite since I was a kid, I quickly progressed from a single test flight to attaching my camera and hoping for the best. These web pages will serve as a photo gallery of select images, as well as a general information source on equipment, technique, and other related info. What’s New? Asian Photography Magazine: May 1, 2010 I was featured in the “Pro Profile” section of Asian Photography’s March 2010 issue, discussing my kite aerial photography, nighttime photography, and urban exploration.
could it happen here? The following is a *true* story. It amused the hell out of me while it was happening. I hope it isn't one of those "had to be there" things. On my way home from the second job I've taken for the extra holiday ca$h I need, I stopped at Taco Bell for a quick bite to eat. In my billfold is a $50 bill and a $2 bill. Me: "Hi, I'd like one seven layer burrito please, to go." Staff: "Is that it?" "Yep." "That'll be $1.04, eat here?" "No, it's *to* *go*." At his point I open my billfold and hand him the $2 bill. "Uh, hang on a sec, I'll be right back." He goes to talk to his manager, who is still within earshot. "Hey, you ever see a $2 bill?" Manager: "No. "A $2 bill. "Ask for something else, THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS A $2 BILL." "Yeah, thought so." He comes back to me and says "We don't take these. "Just this fifty. "I don't know." "See here where it says legal tender?" "Yeah." "So, shouldn't you take it?" "Well, hang on a sec." He goes back to his manager who is watching me like I'm going to shoplift, and...
This guy’s 258 square foot apartment is better than my house. « blah blah blah… I am fascinated with the small house movement. There is just something about well-designed small living spaces that makes me want one! I could never imagine a way to make 258 square feet into anything but a fantastic closet, but designer Barbara Appolooni found a way to make it into a luxurious apartment equipped with a bathroom, kitchen, closet, bed, and balcony. When Christian Schallert isn’t cooking, dressing, sleeping or eating, his 258 square feet apartment looks like an empty cube. The apartment is pretty fantastic, no? If you’re interested in finding out more about Christian, here’s his photography website. <a href=" Our Poll</a> (Also, pstttttttttt… the bajillion people getting linked here…. if you like my blog, feel free to *like* my Facebook page as well. via Like this: Like Loading...

Story Behind Those Stunning Cinematic Gifs Here at theMET, we're always looking for creative projects that catch our eye. More than anything, we love posting about work that pushes boundaries, showing our audience something that has been changed, flipped or spinned into something magically different. Then, we see it as our job to find out the story behind such projects. What inspired the artist or photographer to start down that path? A few days ago, when Met member Mark Huckabee put up a post called Astounding Animated Gifs, we knew we had to dig deeper. Before we go into that more, enjoy these lovely cinemagraphs that they sent directly to us. What's been the response like, so far, on your animated gifs? Which of them is your favorite piece and why? What do you hope others get out of these works? Which gif has been the most popular and why do you think that is? Were you inspired by other gifs or anyone else before you started this more artistic ones? What do you have next in store for us? From Me to You website
