Hack This Photo

This is for week 4 of HackThisPhoto. I kept getting an old school vibe from this picture, like you'd find it in your parent's old photos of thier parents or something so I went ahead and tried to make it a little vintage without looking vintage. I don't know if I succeeded but I like the final result.

Think about it ... that's right: democrats. The elderly tend to vote Democrat in elections and Tennessee gerrymandered the people based on a qualification they knew couldn't be met.

Find Deacon! Originally shared by Matt Lerner *PLEASE SHARE THIS* A good friend of mine, Karen Thomas, had her dog run away this morning. His name is Deacon and he is about the most adorable beagle you will ever see. If you live in or around North Carolina USA, specifically the Charlotte/Mint Hill area and see Deacon please send her a message on here. Like most people, Deacon is more than a dog to Karen, he is her family as well. He is not microchipped nor does he have his ID tags on him but he is wearing a collar. Most of you know I don't ask for a lot when it comes to myself on here. I'm calling in my favors tonight. All I ask of you is to keep an eye out for the little guy and reshare this post.

I'm sharing because everyone should know about this. Originally shared by Sandy Schepis Orangutans are another species on the brink of extinction. Many scientists and conservationists think their time in the wild is numbered. The below article is an example of why. ------------------ "Deforestation has dramatically reduced their habitat and their numbers have dropped from 250,000 a few decades ago to only 50,000 in the wild..." "Company executives are reported to be offering up to £70 to employees for each orangutan killed on the palm oil plantations." --------------- Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2092722/Pregnant-orang-utan-hugs-daughter-bounty-hunters-Borneo-in.html#ixzz1kguHL3Wu http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2092722/Pregnant-orang-utan-hugs-daughter-bounty-hunters-Borneo-in.html

Hey, they're talking about Googl+ on CNN. More specifically, they're talking about letting the childrens in. Of course, once again they're comparing G+ to FB and somehow FB seems to be gathering 100 million people a day while Google+ is merely at 90 million.

This kind of sums it up nicely: Considering that the world consumption of oil has been hovering around 85 million barrels per day, and the U.S. represents about a quarter of that, there's only enough oil in NPRA to fuel the world for about 10-12 days, or the US for about 45 days.

It's not rocket science people. Originally shared by Brandy Ellis The need to respond to emergencies is constant, and the desire to help is part of our humanity. The next time you want to donate after a disaster, please consider this article. People often don't understand the logistics during a crisis, and that is why we depend on relief organizations. - Donate directly to a reputable organization. Please do some due diligence first. - Donate money if possible, donate your time if not. It is entirely appropriate to volunteer at your local shelter "in honor" of the victims of a disaster far away. - Check the box that says "wherever the need is greatest" rather than specifying one disaster. Trust that the organization you are supporting will do their best, or find a different organization to support.

So, I'm perusing Google+ this morning and I see this video posted by Scott Reibolt  about an over-zealous fan of the Baltimore Ravens . It is Baltimore, isn't it? I'm going on memory here and that sounds right. I'm also assuming this is from a recent game. I really don't know since I don't watch football, or any sport for that matter. Why, you might ask? Well, because it never made sense to me. I don't understand why people spend their entire days huddled around a TV hoping someone they don't know does something they can't do. I mean, if Player-A makes a touch-down, how does that affect the world? it doesn't -- it affects Player-A's bank account. How does it affect anything, really? It doesn't, except Player-A might get a new contract or get a better deal if he goes to a new team. But does it change anything important? Is there suddenly world peace? Are terrorists going to drop their plans? Is illegal immigration going to go awa

People For a Better Tomorrow-Tomorrow, today. Stewart has long made ridicule of the ridiculousness of the political system in this country and Colbert, in an effort to show how absurd right wing media is, jumped in with both feet. I am so glad there are people out there, people with a broad reach and popularity that doesn't come with the stigma of returning the favor, who are pointing out the problems with this political system. Originally shared by Jamie Sherman Stephen Colbert & John Stuart are stepping up their game to show the very serious problems with PACs - and the harmful consequences they are already having in the outcome of a presidential candidate's race. This is an article I found in Al Jazeera, written by Cliff Schecter. If you are not sure what it's all about, play the video imbedded in the article.

Woo Hoo! In England I'm considered smart! Originally shared by Emmett Lollis (ThePortalDoctor) Men With High IQ Tend to be Liberal, Atheist and Don't Cheat Evolutionary psychologist Satoshi Kanazawa at the the London School of Economics and Political Science correlated data on these behaviors with IQ from a large national U.S. sample and found that, on average, people who identified as liberal and atheist had higher IQs. This applied also to sexual exclusivity in men, but not in women. The findings will be published in the March 2010 issue of Social Psychology Quarterly. The IQ differences, while statistically significant, are not stunning -- on the order of 6 to 11 points -- and the data should not be used to stereotype or make assumptions about people, experts say. But they show how certain patterns of identifying with particular ideologies develop, and how some people's behaviors come to be. http://www.cnn.com/2010/HEALTH/02/26/liberals.atheists.sex.intelligence/

SOPA and PIPA, or Protect-IP as described by The Pirate Bay: (I've copied it over here for you) INTERNETS, 18th of January 2012. PRESS RELEASE, FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE. Over a century ago Thomas Edison got the patent for a device which would "do for the eye what the phonograph does for the ear". He called it the Kinetoscope. He was not only amongst the first to record video, he was also the first person to own the copyright to a motion picture. Because of Edisons patents for the motion pictures it was close to financially impossible to create motion pictures in the North american east coast. The movie studios therefor relocated to California, and founded what we today call Hollywood. The reason was mostly because there was no patent. There was also no copyright to speak of, so the studios could copy old stories and make movies out of them - like Fantasia, one of Disneys biggest hits ever. So, the whole basis of this industry, that today is screaming about losing control ove

That was spooky. I had to go help my mom with a computer issue (in short she couldn't figure out how to edit her resume, which my brother sent to her from his computer as a PDF) and I had to use her Internet Explorer and her AOL defaults. :shudder: Anywho, she's now on Chrome, but still on AOL. She's using OpenOffice her for word processing since she likes AOL (I'm not sure why and she just gets defensive when I ask questions. In all fairness I asked like you would ask a kid, but it's not my fault she says she knows about this stuff). Anyone have a good (free) PDF editor? I told her to copy her resume over to OOo and save it there.

Can't remember who originally posted this article, but it was in an open tab when I walked away from the computer. This could be what the world looks like if these bills become law. Not only could Costco, Sears, Target and your "review" blog be held accountable and the offending images be forced off the sites, but Google, Bing and Yahoo could be forced to unlist these domains in search results. I remember a few years ago a motorcycle forum I was on was sent a cease and desist letter because it used a stock photo of the motorcycle on it's banner. The owner of the website laughed, posted the letter and made his official response: FU. The site was owned by a non-American and hosted in another country. Could you imagine the whole site being "black-listed" because of the one image? And the letter clearly explained the manufacturer didn't have any problem with the image being used, but the website moderator/owner didn't have any problem with NSFW material
