The Last Game - Stage 773 (click to enlarge) Here is a work I did (see below) for "The Last Game," a play that showed at Stage 773 in Chicago. It's a composite work of elements, some of which I found on DeviantArt. (Each element has Creative Commons licenses that allows such work.) Each element required a lot of manipulation on my part however, and the search for those elements was a time

June 4, 2012 - Singer Eduard Khil, also known as "Mr. Trololo," has died. Khil (or Hill) was 77 years old when he died of complications caused by a stroke he had last month. He was well known as a singer in the Soviet Union (USSR) for decades, but virtually unknown elsewhere. Until, that is, he became a worldwide sensation thanks to YouTube when somebody posted a copy of him singing the "

Restaurant owners and food service mavens know the value of beautiful food photos. Some of you would like to create your own and provide to us for use in a project. So, just for you, here's a nice video filled with excellent how-to advice for making beautiful, project-ready food photographs. Unlike a pair of shoes or a television, food is something you eat. After all, you put food in your mouth,

By Claire JarrettAny local business that is considering advertising to boost their sales should first consider a banner advert. This is especially true of any company that is located on a street with lots of passing traffic. Surprisingly enough, people will drive by a business that has existed at the same location for years and yet never go into the store or restaurant, let along made a purchase.

This is one of the most beautiful videos I've ever seen (below), and one of the best demonstrations of how a simple re-write can make a message more effective.

click image to enlarge I've been playing around with Inkscape a lot lately, using it for some of my designs. Just for fun - and practice - I created this spacey graphic. Inkscape is a good, vector-friendly program that is freeware that you can download at: inkscape.org/download.
