We've Updated our Terms of Service13 Jun 2016 | 7:54 amLast week I told you about how we'd updated our privacy policy. This week, it's the terms of service's turn for a little sprucing up.

As part of modernizing it, we've added sections to cover the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (the "DMCA") and how we deal with account ownership disputes. It's very dry reading (something perhaps only a lawyer can love?), but it is our contract with you unless we have a separate agreement in place.

Happy Skull Appreciation Day!4 Jun 2016 | 5:00 amFor those of you that don't know, June 4th marks the start of my original Skull-A-Day project way back in 2007. After the project ended I kept the site going as a place for the community that formed around it to continue sharing their skull art and I dubbed it Skull-A-Day 2.0. This year is Skull-A-Day 10.0! It's been an amazing journey these past 9 years and there isn't a day that goes by that I'm not experiencing a benefit of that commitment to practice. I highly recommend giving a daily creative project a shot, you never know where it will take you. And be sure to give your head bone some extra love today.
RIP Prince 1958–201621 Apr 2016 | 6:36 pmI'm shocked and heartbroken that another musical genius has died far too young.
Dead Media 5: Newspaper Skull23 Mar 2016 | 12:34 pmI was invited to speak at Wichita State University in Wichita, Kansas and as part of my visit I worked with students in the graphic design program to create a new large scale anamorphic installation in the lobby of the School of the Arts building. The timing was appropriate as it was just announced that the local newspaper would no longer be printing in town, but moving production to another city before eventually transitioning to just a digital format. This temporary piece will stay up for just a few days before it is disassembled and recycled. This piece is part of my ongoing Dead Media series. Would you like me to make one at your school? Get in touch.

Snowmageddon Skull24 Jan 2016 | 5:02 pmMy hometown was hit by this year's crazy blizzard and since we're not used to dealing with snow down South, everything shut down.

Luckily the sun was out today and snow was finally packing friendly, so I decided to add another snow skull creation to my collection...And after two days in the sun...

Why People Read Weird Stuff?6 May 2016 | 11:00 amLots of people would love to read or hear stories that are weird or unusual.

Curious facts you didn't know about your favourite TV shows22 Apr 2016 | 12:46 pmWhile popular, long-running TV shows reach huge audience numbers and are much loved all across the world, with cult-like fandoms surrounding them, few know behind-the-scenes facts about these shows. We have compiled a list of some of the most interesting and unexpected facts about all-time TV favourites to keep you entertained. F.R.I.E.N.D.S. It is well documented that Eric McCormack auditioned for Ross's role more than once, but in reality it seems he never stood a chance. While many of the other main actors, like Matthew Perry, were close to losing their roles to other actors, Ross's role was in fact written with David Schwimmer in mind. Kevin Bright, the executive producer of the show, had worked with...
Frustrated and Angry? Take It Out with a Bottle Made of Jello5 Apr 2016 | 5:41 amA new weird phenomenon is picking up steam and is likely to take over the world very soon. Well, maybe not.

There must be something weirdly satisfying about it, as more people are joining the craze and taking the Jello-bottle fever to a new level.

Mighty Optical Illusions
Crazy Impossible Fists Illusion27 Jun 2016 | 8:03 amI hope everyone had a great weekend! Mine certainly had its ups and down, that's for sure. But, it's time to get my nose back to the grindstone. Before I do that, though, I'm going to share a pretty cool illusion with you, of course! I'm not really sure what to call today's illusion, so I'm just going to call it the impossible fists illusion. Think that's a fitting name for this one? It looks like two fists are smashing through this brick wall, but that's not the impossible part. The wall looks like it's facing in two different directions, if that makes sense. The wall itself is a bit of an impossible structure. And, look a little closer at the fist on the bottom. Do you see something unusual? It's not a...
Moving GIF Size Illusion26 Jun 2016 | 7:00 amSo, our buddy Kovács shared another pretty cool illusion with us. He sent this awesome moving GIF size illusion to our Facebook page. We've seen similar illusions like this before, but they usually aren't moving like this. Check it out… I think the fact that this size illusion is moving makes it even cooler, don't you? These types of illusions usually involve slanted floors and wonky walls. This one also has a car n it, though, so it might even be outside. There's another element in this moving GIF that adds to this illusion, though. Take a look at the cases that each guy is carrying too. To start, the "short" guy looks even more dwarfed because he's carrying a much larger case than the "tall" guy. I...

Betcha can't figure out what today's illusion is all about. Ok, maybe you can. I suppose that song sort of gave it away, didn't it? I have a fun little farmer optical illusion brainteaser for you today. Unfortunately, out farmer today is lonely. You see, his wife has gone missing. Oh no! Can you help find the farmer's wife? Did you find the farmer's wife yet? No? Well, keep looking'! He's so very lonely, and he hasn't even had his dinner yet. Of course, he could probably go into his little country kitchen and pop a TV dinner into the microwave, but he doesn't know that. If you're looking for hints, you won't find...
Multiple Meaning Soldier Illusion24 Jun 2016 | 6:00 amMultiple meaning illusions are probably my favorite illusions. I love to see images that are actually two different things. They're like hidden object illusions, but just a tad cooler, in my opinion. I found a pretty great multiple meaning illusion this morning too! Check out the soldier illusion below… The soldier wearing a helmet was the first thing that popped out in this image to me. But, if you look again, you can probably spot why this is a multiple meaning illusion. It's not actually a picture of a soldier's face. It's actually a picture of a person bending over creating a soldier illusion. The creases in his pants make the eyes and mouth of the soldier, the arms make the back of the head, and his...
Funky Sand Faces Illusion23 Jun 2016 | 8:02 amIt's summer time, and that means beach time! There are all sorts of fun things you can do at the beach, like build sand castles, splash in the surf, and hunt for buried treasure. But, the beach is also great for something else too—photo ops! I ran across this awesome sand faces illusion this morning and really wanted to share with you… Recreating your own funky sand faces illusion is pretty easy too. Just draw some faces in the sand and position your bodies over them, so your heads' shadows fall on them. Bam! Instant creepy and weird faces! And, a pretty awesome photo! We're planning a trip to the beach this summer, and I'm definitely thinking about trying this out. Anyone else? If you liked this funky...

She was, even by the standards of the early 1930's, not a particularly impressive sight, with a brief career spent meandering about the then-quiet Panama Canal Zone. Decommissioned on 17 June 1924, she was consigned to the Philadelphia Navy Yard to […]

Skittles Gives Up Its Colors In Honor Of London Pride27 Jun 2016 | 8:13 amThis weekend the London Pride parade took place and Skittles decided to show their support for the LGBT community by ditching its vibrant colors, because "only one rainbow deserves to be the centre of attention." "So this is kinda awkward, but we're just gonna go ahead and address the rainbow-coloured elephant in the room," writes Skittles in their campaign created with the help of adam&eveDDB. "You have the rainbow … we have the rainbow … and usually that's just hunky-dory. But this Pride, only one rainbow deserves to be the centre of attention – yours. And we're not going to be the ones to steal your rainbow thunder, no siree." (h/t: designtaxi) "Only one rainbow deserves to be the centre of...
Studio Ghibli Inspired Watercolor Paintings By Louise Terrier (14 Pics)27 Jun 2016 | 7:38 amFans of Japanese animation will instantly recognize the inspiration found in these beautiful paintings by Louise Terrier. The French artist, painter and sculptor takes well-known characters from Studio Ghibli (the animation house behind such well-known films as My Neighbor Totoro and Kiki's Bakery) and adds her own creative flair to some of anime's most beloved heroes. The Annecy-based Miyazaki fan says she's scribbled since the day her parents put a pencil in her hands, and as she writes on her Facebook page, "When people ask me: where does that creative energy come from?

Photographer Spends 25 Years Trying To Document The Majestic Beauty Of Whales And Dolphins27 Jun 2016 | 4:44 amChristopher Swann has spent over 25 years taking majestic photographs of whales and dolphins, and as you can see from these beautiful pictures, the British photographer and cetacean enthusiast clearly has an intimate bond with these awe-inspiring marine mammals. "I love the beauty and perfection of the sea," Swann told mymodernmet. "Cetaceans epitomise that, and nothing is more perfect than any cetacean underwater, but whales are really special. To see animals so huge yet so graceful, so at ease and at one with their surroundings, is exquisite." The photographer has spent years running whale and dolphin-watching holidays around the globe, but he's decided to bid farewell to this career in order to focus...

German Beer Ad Shows Men Cradling Their Beer Bellies Like Pregnant Moms27 Jun 2016 | 1:39 amWe all know that beer isn't the best thing to drink if you're trying to maintain a healthy lifestyle. However, that doesn't stop alcoholic beverage companies from using chiseled and perfectly toned models in their ad campaigns. But one German beer company has decided to take an honest approach to their advertising (forgive the oxymoron), and as you can see, the result is as refreshing as a cold beer on a hot day. Instead of using typical male models, Bergedorfer Bier, in collaboration with German advertising firm Jung von Matt, decided to use men who they believed were more representative of the regular beer consumer. And by that we mean men with beer bellies. Not only that, but they decided to show them...

"Professional Plaintiff" Accused of Threatening to Sue Big Companies for Profit27 Jun 2016 | 1:43 amFor the past few years, a man from Green Bay, has been threatening to sue big companies who perform background checks on him during the hiring process if they don't pay him hefty settlements. Believe it or not, his plan is actually working. Although he's apparently been at it for years, Cory Groshek's strategy was recently revealed by Time Warner Cable lawyers filed a motion to dismiss a case filed against the company by Groshek. It claims that within a recent 18-month stretch, Groshek applied to 562 jobs with high-profile companies, without any intention to secure long-term employment. Instead, he merely tried to to catch companies violating the law during the hiring process, so he could threaten a...
Chinese Teenager's Found with Rotting Feet after 6-Day Gaming Binge27 Jun 2016 | 12:34 amChina's serious video-game addiction problem is once again in the news, after a 19-year old boy was found passed out in some bushes with badly infected feet, after a 6-day gaming marathon at an internet cafe. Police discovered the avid gamer collapsed near some train tracks. They quickly called an ambulance as the man's feet seemed badly infected and were giving off a strong putrid smell. When he woke up briefly to ask for some water, he told police officers that he had spent all his money playing video games and had not eaten or slept in several days. When he couldn't afford to play anymore, he just started wondering around the city and eventually passed out from fatigue. After identifying the man, local...
Chinese Man Walks Around with 40Kg Rock on His Head to Lose Weight24 Jun 2016 | 4:27 amA 54-year-old man from Jilin, China, is making international headlines for his bizarre exercise routine. Cong Yan claims daily walks with a 40-kilogram rock balancing on his head have helped him lose 30 kilograms in the last three years. Cong Yan is a familiar, albeit unusual sight in Jilin parks. Every day, he can be seen walking on the narrow pathways, ascending and descending steps alongside other health-conscious Chinese trying to keep in shape. But what sets him apart from everybody else is the heavy-looking block of solid concrete dangling on top of his head. Read More
$249 Smart Pen Scans and Replicates Any Color on Earth, Allegedly24 Jun 2016 | 3:48 amThe Scribble Pen is one of those awesome things that exist in our imagination, but that we never expect to actually become a reality.

Persian Hercules Looks Like He Could Tear the World in Two24 Jun 2016 | 2:29 amMeet Sajad Gharibi, a 24-year-old weightlifter from Iran who has stunned the internet with his impressive physique. Weighing a whopping 345 pounds – most of it sheer muscle – Gharibi is said to be able to lift up to 386 pounds. He certainly looks like a guy you never, ever want to get on the bad side of. Lucky for us, those who know this mountain of a man say that, despite his grizzly appearance, he is actually a gentle giant with a very big heart. They mean that both literally and metaphorically, I presume. That's reassuring as he is probably the closest we'll ever get to seeing a real life The Hulk, and we don't want him sharing both his looks and short temper. Read More

Three Things to Check On Your Car Right Now25 Jun 2016 | 6:49 amLots of people have almost mystical relationships with their cars. They get inside every morning and simply hope (pray?) for the best. It's one thing if you own a new car. You can pretty much be assured that it's going to get up and go every time you use it for at least a couple of years. But for those of us who try to depend on undependable older vehicles, the situation can be much more tenuous. 600-01645938 (c) Masterfile Model Release: Yes Property Release: Yes Model & Property Release Car Saleswoman and Client Right now, your older car might feel like a ticking time bomb.

Dealing With Personal Injury Car Accident Cases11 Jun 2016 | 10:36 amAny car accident is scary. When you get hurt, the entire situation is stressful. Most people end up being terrified and make very bad decisions. The injured party has to deal with psychological problems, physical problems and a potentially lengthy recovery process. To make matters even more complicated, insurance issues will be problematic. If you want to get the best possible result, consider this advice offered by Tario. The Very First Thing To Do People will tell you different things about the first step to take but the truth is that the most important first step that has to be taken is to not panic.

How to Claim Car Accident Insurance6 Jun 2016 | 9:41 amIf you have been in an accident – or if you would like to be prepared in case you ever get in an accident – there are several steps you need to take both at the time of the accident and afterward. At the Scene of the Accident There are several steps you should take right after the accident has happened. In the heat of the moment, it is easy to be distraught or upset with the other person or persons involved, but taking these steps will set you up for safety afterward.

NEVER say the accident was your fault. If you admit fault, then the other party can hold that against you and try to make a claim even if they were clearly the reason for the accident.

Preparing for Your Driver's License Tests Can Be Made Easier28 May 2016 | 9:07 amWhen we are teenagers, one of the things that we look forward to the most is getting our driver's license. After all, teenagers love their freedom, and what better way to express that freedom than to take to the open road and enjoy a fun road trip? Getting a driver's license, however, is sometimes a little challenging, because it involves two main parts – a written test and a practical driving test. Fail either of these, and your driver's license will be out of reach for a little bit longer. But these days, there are ways to easily practice for both of these tests. In fact, there are even companies that can assist you along the way with both of them. The Internet Has What You Need Many companies...
5 Defensive Driving Tips for New York Drivers22 May 2016 | 11:00 amDriving anywhere can be hazardous, but New York's roads have an especially notorious reputation. Aggressive drivers and bad weather can, at times, make the roads perilous. If you're headed out on New York's roads, here are five defensive driving tips to help keep yourself and others safe. Bring a Navigator If you're headed somewhere that you don't know the way to, you'll, of course, need to bring directions. You should also bring a navigator. Often, you'll need to make navigational decisions in heavy-traffic areas. Bringing a navigator along who can tell you where to turn will help you get to where you're going while also keeping your eyes on the road. A navigator may be another person...

4 TALES THAT PROVE OUR BRAINS ARE SWITCHED OFF AND IN OUR POCKETS12 Jun 2016 | 5:52 pmSUDDENLY REALIZED THAT when I wash food by holding it under the horrible yellow water that comes out of my tap I am really just adding an extra dose of carcinogens. Funny how we do things without thinking these days. *** Case in point: A reader sent me a news report about an unobservant man who collected the wrong child from school. Joseph Fuller, 65, intended to pick up his grandson, but took an unrelated boy home instead. The child, equally out of it, confirmed to school staff that the old man was his grandfather before going off with him. Fuller's wife made him take the child back to the school in the US state of South Carolina. I think most guys would have just kept the boy and hoped nobody...
Differences between Westerners and Easterners6 Jun 2016 | 12:04 amAsia contains literally four billion people. So it's kind of weird that every time I visit the West, people say: "You're from Asia? I met a guy from there once; I wonder if you know him?" What's even more weird is that I usually do. *** At a writers' festival in Singapore recently, the authors' panel and audience were given five minutes to answer a question: What topics should NEVER be covered in children's books? The Westerners in the room gave identical answers: Nothing should be banned! All censorship is evil! FREEEEEEDDDOMMM!!! The Easterners in the room wrote long lists of unmentionables including cannibalism, violence, politics, religion, sex, kissing, underpants, democracy,...
4 true stories about taking risks23 May 2016 | 7:17 pmI NEVER USED TO be a risk-taker but then I had children who would play in the dirt and say things like: "Daddy, close your eyes and open your mouth." Parents soon learn what true courage is. I've been thinking about brave decisions after reading a news item: a couple who got top score on a farm-themed mobile phone game took home A LIVE COW as their prize. Game-maker Digital Media gives winners the option of taking their award in the form of steaks, but the latest winners, from Tunisia, took the entire cow "as is". "That way they get the cow as a pet, but also have the option of turning it in steaks later," said reader Bernard Betts, who sent me the news item. *** Reading it reminded me of a...
The gift of persuasion15 May 2016 | 8:51 pmINTERVIEWER: "And exactly how much leadership experience do you have?" ME: "Does being admin of a Whatsapp list count? Because I had 20 names on one before I accidentally deleted it." He wasn't impressed by that or anything else I said. I guess some folk have the gift of the gab and some don't. *** Amazing true story about someone who really, really did: A handcuffed villain recently escaped from a police station and raced across town to another police station. He persuaded them that he had escaped from kidnappers, so police from station two released him, received his grateful thanks and let him go—just before police from station one arrived to re-arrest him. *** This happened recently in...
Gender, toilets and all that2 May 2016 | 6:20 pmA WOMAN WAS SACKED for having short hair and wearing trousers to work recently. "They said I was gay," she complained to an unsympathetic Labor Tribunal in the city of Guiyang, southwest China. How could her employers get it so wrong? A pixie cut and skinny pants are what all the BABES wear these days. Only guys these days have long hair, handbags and Paisley pattern mini-dresses. *** The growing gulf between modern and ancient attitudes became evident a few days ago when I witnessed a discussion on gender politics. No one is born male or female, an American friend insisted. In evidence he offered a recent US court judgment saying, in an unmistakably skeptical tone, that the law should not give much...

The Selaron Steps of Rio de Janeiro27 Jun 2016 | 8:59 amRio de Janeiro's most famous street is actually a flight of stairs connecting the streets of Joaquim Silva and Pinto Martins in the Lapa and Santa Teresa neighborhoods. Officially it is known as the Manuel Carneiro street, but most people know it as "Selaron Steps" or "Escadaria Selarón", named after the Chilean born painter Jorge Selaron, who famously decorated it as a "tribute to the Brazilian people." It all began in 1990 when Selaron started renovating the dilapidated steps that ran along the front of his house. At first, neighbors mocked him for his choice of colors, as he covered the steps in fragments of blue, green and yellow tiles – the colors of the Brazilian flag, but he remained...
Whale Bone Alley of Yttygran Island27 Jun 2016 | 8:57 amAlong the northern shore of the remote Siberian island of Yttygran, in the Bering Sea, is an area known as the "Whale Bone Alley". Forty years ago, Soviet archaeologists here discovered dozens of bowhead whale bones, and skulls carefully arranged in the ground stretching for 550 meters and running parallel to the shore. The rib bones are either stuck into the ground or propped up by rocks in a double line to form a sort of alley. Down the middle of the alley were huge skulls and square pits once thought to have contained tons of meat. Archaeologists believe that the Whale Bone Alley was built as a shrine and sacred meeting place by the Eskimos in the 14th century. At that time there was a temporary ice...
Wakakusa Yamayaki: The Mountain Burning Festival25 Jun 2016 | 9:12 amFireworks are a great way to celebrate any occasion, but like NuanQuan's molten iron throwing festival, the Japanese city of Nara (the city of deer) has taken their festivities a notch higher. Just behind Nara Park, stands an old, extinct volcano, called Mount Wakakusa, that rises gently to a height of 350 meters. From its peak, one can have unobstructed views of the entire city. Mount Wakakusa is hence very popular for walking and strolling. The mountain is covered by grass, and lining the slope of the mountain are cherry trees that are usually in full bloom around early April. But as winter approaches, the grass begins to die and the cherry trees lose their leaves and the mountain looks very bald. This...
Grandma Prisbrey's Bottle Village25 Jun 2016 | 4:27 amGrandma Prisbrey's Bottle Village is tucked away in a small residential neighborhood of Simi Valley, California. In an area one-third of an acre, there are over thirty sculptures and sixteen houses built by Tressa Prisbrey out of an estimated one million bottles and other discarded items which she collected from a nearby dump. Grandma Tressa Prisbrey began building the Bottle Village in 1956, when she was sixty years old. Tressa was collecting pencils, as a hobby, for the last few decades and had amassed 17,000 of them. She needed a place to keep them. At first she thought she would build a storehouse, but when she realized that cinder blocks are too expensive, she decided to make one out of bottles...
Da Shuhua: Molten Iron Throwing Festival24 Jun 2016 | 8:28 amOn the 15th and final day of the Chinese Lunar New Year festivities, while the rest of the country celebrates with traditional fireworks, the small town of NuanQuan, about four hours' drive west of Beijing, puts up a unique pyrotechnic show. A small team of blacksmiths scoop hot molten iron from buckets and throw it against a brick wall. On impact, the molten metal explodes into a thousand brightly glowing shards like sparks shooting from exploding fireworks. The locals call it Da Shuhua, which translates as "tree flower", so called because the blobs of metal, after they have been smacked against the wall, form floral pattern once they cool.

Open Text Corporation, provider of Livelink collaboration and content management software for the enterprise, is introducing new software tools for corporate governance compliance, including the ability to upload information from internal controls databases, such as Deloitte's Risk and Controls Knowledgebase or RACK. The new capabilities are intended to enhance Open Text's Livelink for Corporate Governance solution, which offers a central place to manage corporate risk and internal controls, organize project teams, and improve corporate governance compliance. Open Text launched Livelink for Corporate Governance last year to give companies a single system to manage compliance with corporate governance laws.
The new features for Livelink for Corporate Governance include an XML-based bulk import loader, which uploads internal controls information from Deloitte's RACK as well as other databases that produce Excel or XML representations of control structures. Once internal controls data is uploaded into Livelink, project teams can use the data in the workspace to create, manage, and monitor procedures for each area where internal controls are needed. The workspaces provide workflows and checklists for each control; process documentation; audit practices; risk mitigation and issue remediation plans; policy documents; and records of a company's assessments of its controls. The new capability was developed after Open Text engaged Deloitte for assistance with Sarbanes-Oxley compliance. Open Text used portions of Deloitte's RACK and developed the bulk loader to improve compliance preparation.
Other features Open Text is introducing for Livelink for Corporate Governance include: Risk Register--gives customers a place to identify, assess, and monitor mitigation efforts for company risks, whether financial or operational, which impact corporate governance. The Risk Register is integrated with internal control workspaces in Livelink for Corporate Governance, so companies can assess risks along side efforts to manage and track internal controls. Companies can set up their own risk parameters and establish matrices based on type, severity, and probability of occurrence. Collaborative Document Review--new document review features offer a secure framework for managing reviews of critical documents intended to be filed with a regulatory authority. The document review tools provide a flexible process for managing multiple, parallel reviews of documents in Adobe PDF. Users can securely and concurrently review and add comments to un-modifiable PDF versions of documents, and record their comments and changes. Authors or editors can then consolidate comments from reviewers and create a new version of the original document. The solution also provides additional controls to guard against the misuse of documents.

text: Politics 25 July 2013 Newington I Print HTML Charles Walwyn Radclyffe Cooke was Tory MP for Newington from 1885-92.

Nor was he impressed by the new democracy in the Tory party represented by the "tyrannical" Primrose League. He recalled that at their meetings you were forced to drink "half a dozen full cupfuls" of "inferior Souchong at two shillings and frequently the coarsest Congou" or "your conservatism is considered blemished" › J K Rowling's whodunnit Subscribe This article first appeared in the 22 July 2013 issue of the New Statesman, How to make a saint More Related articles A father's murderous rage, the first victims of mass killers and Trump's phantom campaign I want my country back Why won't politicians admit the truth: life is hard, and drugs are fun?
