My favorite mixed martial artist Nick Diaz fights Carlos Condit this weekend. Here’s a class photo of a very young, but always tough Nick. The dude hasn’t changed.

This is my latest desktop picture at work. It’s awesome. Just thought I’d share it. For more background on these rhinos, watch this video on YouTube.
Ultra Hipster Creates Faux-Faux-Aged Photos of Brewery
These photos were not taken with a vintage Polaroid camera. Neither were they taken with an iPhone armed with faux-aged filters ala Instagram and Hipstamatic. These were taken with a digital SLR, dragged into Photoshop, altered by one-click Photoshop actions (made by someone else) to mimic faux vintage prints. I call this faux-faux-vintage art! And I believe this officially makes me ‘ultra hipster.’ Lol. This post, part one of an examination of the Instagram/Hipstamatic explosion, may double as The Boulevard Brewery Tour. VIEW PHOTOS
The Boulevard Brewing Company was founded in 1989 by John McDonald and is now the largest specialty brewer in the Midwest.
Unexpected Side Effect
Just saw this photo at The Atlantic. A wild side effect of a prolonged flooding in Pakistan, causing trapped spiders to cocoon entire trees.
An unexpected side-effect of the 2010 flooding in parts of Sindh, Pakistan, was that millions of spiders climbed up into the trees to escape the rising flood waters; because of the scale of the flooding and the fact that the water took so long to recede, many trees became cocooned in spiders webs. People in the area had never seen this phenomenon before, but they also reported that there were less mosquitos than they would have expected, given the amount of standing water that was left. Not being bitten by mosquitoes was one small blessing for people that had lost everything in the floods. (© Russell Watkins)
