You know how some women dress a certain way because they believe that it makes them look sexy (even if it doesn’t)?
Or put on too much makeup, or poof their hair higher than it should?
Yes, it’s a mating ritual based on a perception on enhancing one’s outward appearance in order to attract a significant someone.
Men do the same thing, but often in a different way – some do it with fancy cars, big suits, or other things that emit levels of flash and style.

This week, the NEW YORK TIMES finally wrote an article about a study that WEB WATCH wrote about in a September 2009 piece entitled “MULTITASKING SUCKS”. Glad to see that the NY Times is on top of today’s news…
In the NYTimes article called “Your Brain on Computers – Attached to Technology and Paying a Price” (or, depending on which version you’re reading, also titled as “Your Brain on Computers – Hooked on Gadgets, and Paying a Mental Price”, take your pick), the NYTimes examines the impact that computers and portable gadgets have on people today, and whether being so surrounded by information and multitasking our way through the Internet marsh is worth it.

Sending a text message can be tough on the thumbs.
Web Watch, however, envisions a time in the future when the full-size computer keyboards that we know today are piled in the junkpile next to the typewriter, as more and more people grow up being comfortable typing in such a small space.
But how efficient can a peanut-sized keyboard be when you’re actually trying to type something meaningful?
The World’s Fastest Texter competition is what it’s all about.

At a party the other day, the girls were talking about various chick things, like shoes, when one of the men threw out their opinion on the current topic.
The women pounced on the opportunity, loudly proclaiming that the guy who dared voice his opinion had “lost his guy card”. The conversation quickly went badly for the men in the room as they defended their buddy’s innocuous comment.
Whether the men were successful in their defense or not is really not today’s topic – but rather, the one question left unanswered that night:
If there are at least 16 WAYS FOR A MAN TO LOSE HIS GUY CARD (give or take five or more other ways), can a woman lose her CHICK CARD? And if so, how?

Tilt shift photography is a way to make an image or film look like it’s of a toy miniture or the object is made of plastic — just by adjusting the focus used by the camera.
You can use a special tilt shift lens on your SLR camera, or you can manipulate the image digitally with Photoshop to change the focus to a much narrower frame of reference. Doing so makes the image appear much further away in the shot than it actually is.
You may have already seen some examples of tilt shift photography without even realizing it. Joss Whedon’s TV show DOLLHOUSE uses tilt shift photography in its opening credit sequence, seen here:
