PHOTOGRAPHER HAL
by sbrothier
Bathtubs, couples, love and challenge are strong themes throughout this artist’s work with other key elements including individuality, style, communication and intimacy.
Photographer Hal brings complete strangers to his confined, crucible like spaces only to convey his continuing theme of ‘love of the couple’. The initial title Pinky & Killer used a small space or room to capture the willing couples, soon followed by the title Couple Jam which brought the focus even closer to the subjects who were placed in a bathtub together. “I am currently seeking new dimensions in portrait photography by challenging the majestic theme of mankind, defined through love.” Photographer Hal’s latest project is called Fresh Love, which captures the many varied and fresh couples in vacuum sealed package.

10-2010 | Four music subscription services compared | iPod & Entertainment | Playlist | Macworld
by garret
"While many people continue to consume music by purchasing it—on CD or via electronic emporiums such as the iTunes Store and Amazon.com—some also use music subscription services to get their daily musical fix. Once confined to the Web, many of these services now make their tuneful content available via iOS apps. Among them are Mog, Napster, Rdio, and Rhapsody.
But what—other than more music than you can listen to in a lifetime—do you get for your money? Tune in to find out."

Confined Love by John Donne
by tadeufilippini
Confined Love
Some man unworthy to be possessor
Of old or new love, himself being false or weak,
Thought his pain and shame would be lesser
If on womankind he might his anger wreak,
And thence a law did grow,
One might but one man know;
But are other creatures so?
Are Sun, Moon, or Stars by law forbidden
To smile where they list, or lend away their light?
Are birds divorced, or are they chidden
If they leave their mate, or lie abroad a-night?
Beasts do no jointures lose
Though they new lovers choose,
But we are made worse than those.
Who e'er rigged fair ship to lie in harbours
And not to seek new lands, or not to deal withal?
Or built fair houses, set trees, and arbors,
Only to lock up, or else to let them fall?
Good is not good unless
A thousand it possess,
But dost waste with greediness.
John Donne
BLDGBLOG: Agamemnon's Fortress
je me demande dans un réseau social, quel effet a l'écroulement (décès,disparition, changement de vie) d'un des membresThe weight and pressure distribution within a pile of any granular material is determined by the way in which the individual grains contact each other and distribute the stress. Quite commonly, grain shapes and sizes mean that there are microscopic chains and networks of grains that are oriented and in contact with each other in such a way that they carry most of the pressure from the weight of the material above them. These chains seem to behave like the soaring arches of Gothic cathedrals, which serve to transmit the weight of the roof, perhaps a great dome, outward to the walls, which bear the load. In a sand pile, particularly one that is confined in a container of some sort, these chains perform the same function—they carry the stress outward to the container, rather than directly downward to the base of the pile.

Unlike roads, which can evolve out of any old dirt track, railways require skilled labour and considerable investment. As a result, they are confined mainly to the richer nations of Europe, the US, Australia and Japan.
Railway networks in India, Argentina and parts of Africa give clues to their colonial heritage.

"Here's an experiment in keepings things small and confined to one Javascript file. (...) The script has been compressed to 14kb." Impressionnant.

The Golf Community - Find Tips, Tricks and other Resources
by helloashok
There is no organization in this world that works without a set of rules. Even nature has rules that it follows and you can clearly identify the reason of why the whole universe is running so systematically. There has to be a confined set of objectives and rules for correct functioning. That is why whether it is any sport or it is some kind of business there are rules for everything.
In the sports world golf holds a dignified position. It came to existence in the 17th century. Every new idea is hard to accept but golf held its ground very fast and in this century it is loved more than any other sport. Golf is about fun. It takes a good hand to make you love this game. It is elegant and dignified because you don't have to run after balls, you don't have to kick balls, you don't have to shout, scream or pant out of exhaustion. By the time you have made to pocket your golf ball you can walk away calmly and gracefully.
I’m having a hot flash

A topic once confined to women’s magazines and polite discussion about hormone replacement therapy, menopause is inspiring books, stimulating workshops and an international newsletter, and provoking unprecedented frank conversation, woman-to-woman and woman-to-man.

Spinal Cord Injury Peer Support
by Apparelyzed
The Spinal Cord Injury Peer Support forum is all about members helping members. Often, talking to someone who has suffered a spinal injury and has been confined to a wheelchair, can give a "clarity of vision", and allow the maximum potential of an individual be achieved. This is the role we play, in helping those with spinal cord injuries.
This is especially usefull for Quadriplegics, Paraplegics and Tetraplegics.
