Reshared post from +ZUG

Our latest Photoshop Contest gives you another chance to win a $25 Amazon Gift Card for your clever Photoshop skills!

We're looking for the funniest "censored" photo that didn't actually require censoring! There is no picture so innocent that it can't be made to look absolutely filthy with the addition of one of those black "censored" bars.

Simple and unsettling as well as humorous! (Love her Jesus treatments.) Genius.

I shared this with my husband last night and he noticed the link to her site – more photos there to check out.

I'm not dead – just busy with work (a good thing!) so I've been taking a break from G+. Hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the warm early spring weather here in the US ~ and hope the weather is awesome for my friends who are in other countries throughout the world.

Stay happy!

I found a new "programming" blog … about movies.

My favorites :

var grit = true;

if(work > 0 && play == 0) {jack = dullBoy;}

.titanic {
float: none;
}

I've always enjoyed TED

Now, they're opening up their talks to 10 minute lessons. Love it!

If you are a teacher or animator or know of a teacher or animator who would be interested in sharing these inspiring lessons, check out the video that +Google Students shared below. I'm thinking of volunteering for animation, but am a little intimidated!

"A permanent initiative, TED-Ed harnesses the talent of the world's best teachers and visualizers, extending great lessons beyond a single classroom to anyone with internet access.

In the first stage of this initiative, TED-Ed launches a new education channel on YouTube today. It offers up original video content that marries the talent of great teachers with top animators to bring concepts like neuroscience to life in in short videos, typically 5 minutes long. The channel is part of the youtube.com/edu offering – a collection of half a million educational videos – available in many schools as well as to the public online."

This is great for themes that don't automatically add a class to the <body> tag. Having class="home" and class="single" sure can be helpful!

Note: ESMI's response was the most helpful in this post. I put this in my theme header and bam! the body has some class. Woo!

Inspired by the article Lizzy shared (below), let's have fun and make some great last tweets*: What will yours be? What about a celebrity's last tweet?

An epic (but death-expected) tweet of mine could be:
"OMG, this bacon-encrusted ham and cheese donut sammich is so delicious!**"

* Or G+ or Facebook posts.
** No, I have not had this concoction, but I would surely die a happy woman.
