From Preston, the changing New York City skyline, from 1876 to a conceptual image of 2013.
*
Check out how a photographer created images of fireworks unlike any you've ever seen. Stunning.
*
I've posted a link to this wind map before, but I want to thank my friend Nigel who reminded me to check out it out again in the wake of Isaac. ?
*
Another Isaac-related link, Google wins again with their crisis map of the storm. What a fantastic resource.
*
And if you really want to monitor ways the Earth is trying to get rid of us, you can also check out this seismic monitor.

Finally, from my friend Paul, Julia Child Remixed. Yeah this has been around for awhile but it's always good to revisit it (or in my case, see it for the first time -- Come at me, bro! Or should I say … "Bring on the roasted potatoes!"). I wish all recipes were done like this.
