  1. Most of my work is devoted to the period of World War II. The most powerful impression on me personally produces a series of photos about the siege of Leningrad, this is my hometown. In addition, here you will find the defense of Moscow, the liberation of Prague and Vienna, the storming of Berlin, some pages from the life of Paris. D-day collages will be ready soon. Some pages of my journal will bring you to the streets of the capital of the Russian Empire, St. Petersburg. Wherever I go, I'm trying to penetrate the layers of time. It does not always do well, but I try. -Sergey Larenkov. http://sergey-larenkov.livejournal.com/ Russian photographer Sergey Larenkov is a master of a technique called, alternatively, perspective-matching photography or the fancier computational rephotography, which consists of precisely matching the points-of-view of vintage and modern photographs and exploring what happens where they merge. Since last year, Larenkov has been assembling a series of such photos on World War II: As the photo above shows, the point of combination can be quite haunting. Some Photoshop whizzes have criticized Larenkov’s work on the grounds that the mergers are too jarring in their contrasts and could be executed with greater smoothness on his part, but, in the absence of an explanation of his work, I think that’s kind of the point: It clearly takes a great deal of patience and technical aptitude to create these photos, and the harshness of imposing war and its devastation on pristine modern European cities works better when it’s not too slick. http://www.geekosystem.com/world-war-ii-modern-photos-sergey-larenkov/

  4. my story is nowhere near as good as most, but fuck it every year for his bday my homie has a weekend camping trip at a lake about an hour from dallas. it is usually a small group, maybe 10-15 people. this year though about 25-30 people show up, most i didn't know. well there is this one guy there, i will refer to him as D, he is fucking annoying and a bitch but always has liquor so i don't mind him. well him and his chick(call her R) broke up but are still living together. well she comes out to the lake with her friend(call her K). i didn't really pay attention to either of them cause i was trying to smash on this cuban chick that was there but good thing i didn't cause once the sun came up i realized that bitch was butt ugly. well the next day i am chillin with one of my homies and we are wanting to go to this chill swimming spot with some females but dont want everyone else going. so i mention the spot to my homie in front of R & K knowing they would wanna go. of course they do and i tell them to get their stuff and discretely get in my car. we go to the spot and swim for a few hours, drink a lil bit and talk about sex and whatever. when we get back that dude D was a little pissed off cause i took his ex and K(who he tried to fuck with the first night but she dissed him) away for a few hours. he never said anything but you can tell he got mad. well the girls say they are gonna walk to the shower and ask if i wanna walk with them(bout 15 minute walk). i say yea since i needed to shower anyway and the whole way there and back we were just talkin and bullshittin. well when we get back this fool D is really asshurt and is starting to say some smartass comment and shit about how i am following them around and up their asses. instead of kicking his ass i figure i would do one better and fuck at least one of 'his chicks'. i end up in their tent and am just messing around with them and making out with K when R says 'lets go to your tent, it's hot in here' (i had a small fan in my tent) well of course i say yea and as we walk over to my tent we walk past everyone else, they were chillin by the fire drinking and talking. D watched as i opened up my tent and them get into it and right as i walked in after them i looked up and saw him staring. we all lay down and i start layin pipe on K. i reach over and rubbed on R but she didn't respond so i just kept railing K for awhile. well we get done and pass out. the next morning about 8am they get up and go to their tent. everyone gets up around 9, 9.30 and starts to pack and clean up. as far as D knew, i fucked both of them. haha. well after everyone gets packed and cleans we all are standing around talking when RnK walk over to me to get my #. the entire morning, that fool D did not say a word to me or anyone else. hell that bitch made fool didn't even LOOK at me. well thats my lame story, thanks for reading cliffnotes: instead of beating some fools ass for talking shit, i fuck his ex and chick he wanted to bang. i actually only banged the chick he wanted but he thought i railed them both

  14. congrats Ghost.. you will be very pleased! that should last you more than 5 years. about the antivirus.. taken from another thread but so very true..... i made the switch a few years ago and wondered to myself why i didnt do it before. i do recommend getting the VLC multimedia that can play ANY media file. this way you wont have to experience certain files that "wont" play on a mac.

  21. Just got in the mail a SEIDIO Rugged case, beats the crap out of the Otter Box Defender if you need that kind of protection and aesthetically you can't even compare them. Its actually 2 cases in one, you can strip it down to a slim hard plastic case that fits in your pocket like the slimmest INCASE.
