That is one way to describe Mackie. For the keen observer, she was a good woman, in the most awe-inspiring, reverent sense of the word "good". More than one person at yesterday's funeral remarked that Mackie never said a negative word about anybody in all the years they had known her. How remarkable is that? All agreed that she was a sweet, caring, fine lady who comported herself with tremendous grace and dignity. She truly lived her faith, exemplifying the Christian concepts of love, forgiveness, and humility. She was a stea...

1349 Viewings as of 2/8/15 Initial fractal flame created in Apophysis 7x15 using a script by Plunder found in Optical Illusion 1 by plunder The resulting image was mapped onto a cube in GIMP with added "laser beams" extended from each cube face by digital painting. The resulting image was duplicated with various color inversions and blend modes in GIMP to achieve the following alternate coloring versions, each finally rendered in Ultra Fractal.

Invisibles At Work, Take A Bow! by Richard Eisenberg for Forbes.com Let us now praise “invisible” men and women in the workforce.

These disoriented space travelers used time distortion to reach Earth from their distant solar system, and in so doing, monitored communications from several years into our future during their journey. Unaware that this is only 2014, they inadvertently "let the cat out of the bag" with their unexpected variation of "take us to your leader", much to the chagrin of Joe Biden, and especially Chris Christie, who was heard muttering "I lost all that weight for nothing??".
