One thing that's very crucial to gardening is the seed starter. Seed starters are very important for a number of reasons, including the fact that is an excellent way to make sure your seeds survive in their own little environment until you’re ready to transfer them to your garden. Plus, it is very rewarding to grow plants from seeds (versus transplanting).
The final chapter of Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy is here, The Dark Knight Rises, and if you're anything like me, it made you want to immediately don a cowl of your own and run around punching criminals.

Unfortunately for most of us, we don't have a billion dollars, nor Morgan Freeman, so we'll just have to make do with some good old-fashioned DIY tricks. Read on for a rundown of ...

In today's world of social media, there's really only two powerhouses—Facebook and Twitter. And those of you with Twitter accounts know the power of a Tweet. Getting more followers means reaching more people, but the vast majority of Tweeters are following only a handful of Twitterers themselves. Do you ever wonder why them?

I am the crime watch co-chairman for our neighborhood crime watch committee of our home owner's association. Instead of making a boring "do this, do that" video, I decided to make a funny video from the eyes of a criminal that specializes in stealing from homes, just like mine. This is meant to teach homeowners what to look out for when keeping their homes safe from criminals.
She's not the dog from Mike & Molly, but she might as well be. This is Daisy, our 14lb mix. She's Shih Tzu, Chihuaha, Terrier, and Chin...or oops. She's what happened when our friends didn't know their dog was still in heat.

Taken in September. Had just finished kayaking Lake Atitlan and came across this hammock while exploring the hotel grounds. Craziest part is this place was $34 a night.
Took this picture with a Canon Rebel XS from the top of a 30 foot tree- not sure why but it looks like I'm 10 feet up... The scary part is that the wind MPH was 50+, and this wasn't a strong tree. Every few seconds I would be half crushed by this "puny" tree (it was still bigger than me!). She (the dog) kept on trying to hop up in the tree!
I can't win the prize (though I wish I could), so I decided to show off more than just one photo from a recent hot air balloon ride I took. If you're going to submit to the contest, make sure to only submit one photo, to make it fair.

Cow lurking behind a brick wall in Iraq. There, it's common for cattle, chickens and sheep to be enclosed by brick walls in the cities. It's also pretty common to have them on top roofs, kinda like a rooftop garden, only it's a rooftop farm. Pretty much nowhere for them to go!
A short video on Jon Rafman, Google Street View "photographer" (previously 1, 2).
KEH has a great website and awesome resources for photographers who don't need the newest thing, but know lots of other photographers do, which means KEH is there to scoop up all the gently-used and barely-used gear for the more budget minded or just plain more sensible. Also, KEH is the go-to place for vintage equipment. Who needs to get in a bidding war on eBay and pay more than the true value of a vintage camera? Keep your eye on KEH instead.

Yesterday a friend challenged me to make an paper ant. This is what I came up with: the back of the ant.
What if you skinned a muppet and wore it as a mask? In the virtual 2D world of the internet, it might work a little something like this: photos of muppets + photos of human eyes x Photoshop = weirdest Tumblog ever, muppetswithpeopleeyes.tumblr.com by Mike Lacher.

When I heard that a man wearing a pink wig and matching PVC dress won the 2010 National Scrabble Championship yesterday, I wasn't that shocked. After all, it was Halloween. But it turns out that it wasn't just a Halloween costume. In fact, it's a way of life for this champion scrabbler.
Sebastian Kruger is a German artist known for his "star caricaturist" paintings: stylistically exaggerated, realistically painted portraits of pop icons. My personal favorite depicts the classic Clint Eastwood stance (as Harry Callahan: Go ahead! Make my day!). Scroll below for the Stones, Tom Waits, Michael Jackson and more.
A match between Arew vs NTT ( pronounces Entity, get it? //rolls eyes) goes into bizzaro world very quickly as the two sides make the weirdest choice. First time I've seen it in a match. Watching the first four minutes is enough, the rest turns into a standard match.

Draw aw square nose with a tiny mouth that has a neutral expression. Draw three spikes on the hair, then small ears. After this, draw a collar on the shirt with tiny sleeves, then the belt will come up underneath the armpits. Clean up any lines that you have missed and keep practicing until you have this drawn to your liking. Be creati...
The following is a how to piece about writing a treatment and the skills involved. As a noobie writer, I find these things very helpful, but at the same time I am careful not to take everything said as cut and dry. That is a tactic used by modern day intellectuals (not a god thing to be in most people's eyes). Read some of this and decide for yourself if it is or is not useful to you.
The sudden deceleration, shifting in the knee, popping sound and screaming from the intense pain that immediately follows is becoming increasingly common among our young athletes. Those who
