Business cards have long been a staple of networking events. But, in today’s digital world, are they worth the expense? Business cards are so omnipresent that they run the risk of becoming an afterthought. Smart entrepreneurs, however, know better than to allow that to happen. Anywhere you go that you meet other people, like networking events, meetings, luncheons, even in line at your local grocery store – can hold the potential to make new contacts. Having a professionally designed business card is basically like having a firm handshake. It can be the deciding factor if a potential client remembers you after the last meetup you attended, or if you will be forgotten.

I wasn't aware of any connection between Pinocchio and ice blocks on a stick, apart from the stick (maybe). Images from Trade Me vendor's listing.
Can you see any red stain? Just 15 minutes before taking this picture i was drinking an egg. You know how, two holes and off you go, real fast real food. But this time i was a bit too fast, a bit too hard, and the egg went all over my face. And what's worse, all over the jumper that Elske gave me for my birthday. Damn! After throwing the egg away i asked for help to the secretary. She gave me the idea to be the best technician for the job (beside the fact that no one else was there). She looked at the mess and went: sparkling water, but quick, before it dries out. It took me a full 45 cents to buy a small bottle, but the effect was amazing. The egg just went away so easily. And can you see any trace left? Makes me want to wash myself on eggs every day. Don't worry, i wouldn't do it. I can't before 45 cents a day to clean egg stains

Vinificazione: L’uva è raccolta in piccole casse di legno selezionando nel vigneto i migliori grappoli adatti per l’appassimento. Queste casse vengono poste nel fruttaio dove la naturale ventilazione favorisce il processo. Dopo circa cinque – sei mesi l’uva viene pigiata in seguito ad ulteriore cernita.
Elevazione ed affinamento: Il mosto ottenuto viene posto a fermentare in barriques da 228lt dove la fermentazione si svolge molto lentamente a causa dell’elevata densità zuccherina, che comporterà un’interruzione del processo fermentativo intorno ai 13 gradi alcolici. Dopo circa 18 mesi viene assemblato e messo in bottiglia dove si affinerà per almeno 6 mesi.

photostory tip #9, SPACES AND FACES!
by manipulating the negative space in your pictures, you can tell as much story as you can with your picture without relying on words, and how your character treats that negative space can speak volumes.
negative space is "the space around and between the subject(s) of an image." like in the pic above, negative space is basically anything that isn't the doll. i've touched on this before, with my tip about zooming and cropping. this expands on that a little.
this is not about picture composition or rule of thirds so much as it's about creating a feeling of movement, using the way your readers' eyes follow the picture to your advantage.
if you're trying to show somebody entering an area, for example, you would have them entering the frame with more negative space in front of them. leaving, you would have more negative space behind them. in a way, you can think of it like piecing together a
sentence, by using parts of a picture. like "[character] [surroundings]" would translate to "the character enters the surroundings", while "[surroundings] [character]" could mean "the surroundings no longer have the character in it". i'm trying to simplify this as much as possible; if your character was coming or going from the opposite direction it would
be the same, you are just using your character's back to separate them from the scene they're leaving. if their back is against the edge of the frame, they're entering. (if you want to show their emotional state, show more or less of the face as they're looking back or looking forward. or if they're simply walking, show just the body or very little of the face.)
is there emotional distance between two characters? use the negative space to illustrate that. have them sitting or standing far apart (or you could have one character up close to the camera with the other character far away. the space between them in the frame is technically very small, but you know without seeing it that it's there), maybe increasing or decreasing the distance if their feelings towards eachother change throughout the story.
the goal is to give as much consideration to the surroundings in your pictures as you do to the subjects. how much space is to the left or right of your character says as much as whether or not the character's arms are raised over their head.
This musical phenomenon comes to Theatr Clwyd for the first time thanks to Tip Top Productions.
Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber based on Old Possum’s Book Of Practical Cats by T.S. Eliot. “Prologue – Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats” additional material written by Trevor Nunn and Richard Stilgoe; ”Memory” additional material written by Trevor Nunn.
The Jellicle Cats come out to play on one special night of the year—the night of the Jellicle Ball. One by one they tell their stories to Old Deuteronomy, their wise and benevolent leader, who must choose one of the Cats to ascend to The Heaviside Layer and be reborn into a whole new Jellicle life. Among the candidates are the aging theatre cat, Gus; the rocker, Rum Tum Tugger; and the once-glamorous Grizabella, now but a faded memory of her former self.
Boasting a score that includes Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats, Mr. Mistoffelees and Memory, this compelling fable takes audiences to a fantastical world that can only exist in the theatre. Cats has been performed worldwide and translated into over 20 languages. The original West End production ran for 21 years and the original Broadway production ran for 18 years

I seem to remember seeing the tipped chair motif before on Flickr. Maybe we should start a group.: ) Or is there one already?
