Bokeh Effect in Web Design: Showcase, Tutorials and Resources Today I would like to present the use of bokeh effect in web design. But what is Bokeh? In photography, bokeh is the blur, or the aesthetic quality of the blur, in out-of-focus areas of an image, or “the way the lens renders out-of-focus points of light“. – Wikipedia. In this article you will find inspirational showcase of beautiful and very colorful websites with bokeh effect. Showcase of Bokeh Effect in Web Design Wonderful bokeh effect looks very impressive in web design projects. In this showcase you will find over 20 beautiful examples of bokeh effect in web design.

Check out my newest app: Grantophone! More cool demos! Please enable JavaScript to view the <a href=" About This is my implementation of the Material Point Method. For interpolation, I use the quadratic B-spline presented here: Analysis and Reduction of Quadrature Errors in the Material Point Method. Instead of integrating the density over time (which is what most of the MPM papers do), I do a density summation every frame. Material Parameters Some of these parameters are hard to explain in one or two sentences (and a couple I made up) so I'll also link you to their corresponding Wikipedia pages. Density - Target density for the particles. Stiffness - How compressible the fluid is. Bulk viscosity - Kind of like damping. Gravity - How much the particles will accelerate downwards.
Tequila Lime Steak Fajitas — Our Life In The Kitchen What to do with a London broil? I almost never buy a London broil because no matter how pretty they might look, especially when they’re on sale, I just can’t seem to get the hang of preparing it any way that isn’t just too tough. This still wasn’t exactly filet mignon, but the recipe, inspired by my son Chris, who is a Grill Man Extraordinaire, turned out to be quite tasty. The assortment of fixings here is what we like. The Meat and The Marinade London Broil or other steakLimes, 6 to 8Peppers – I have a bunch of these Thai chiles in my garden but jalapenos would be great too.Cilantro, 1/4 cup snippedOlive Oil, 1/3 cupGarlic, 4 or 5 clovesTequila (not shown) The Rest OnionsRed or Green Bell PeppersTomatoesAvocadoLimeCheddar and Pepper Jack CheesesCilantro, snippedSour CreamTortillas Here’s the real trick to the flavor. Mince the peppers and garlic. I mixed it all up and realized that unless I juiced a bunch more limes it just wasn’t going to be enough. Slice a lime into wedges. Enjoy!
Dilapidated 18th Century Church Transformed Into a Private Home Adaptive reuse projects generally call to mind industrial warehouses and factories turned into trendy studios, or shabby-chic restaurants and bars, but the transformation of the St. Nicholas Church in Kyloe, Northumberland, England has taken this concept of renewal and grounded it much closer to home. The church was purchased not too long ago by Sally Onions and Ian Bottomley, who went the unconventional route when scouting for their newest digs. The church was originally built in 1792, so the couple wanted to maintain as much of the building’s classic architecture as possible. While sofas and beds have replaced pews, the integrity of the architecture remains – you can even find the old cemetery within the churchyard.
An Introduction to Buddhism An Introduction to Buddhism To do no evil; To cultivate good; To purify one's mind: This is the teaching of the Buddhas. --The Dhammapada The Buddha was born Siddhartha Gautama, a prince of the Sakya tribe of Nepal, in approximately 566 BC. On the full moon of May, with the rising of the morning star, Siddhartha Gautama became the Buddha, the enlightened one. The Buddha wandered the plains of northeastern India for 45 years more, teaching the path or Dharma he had realized in that moment. Impermanent are all created things; Strive on with awareness.
Spectrum: Empire Off The Grid Of course, to take full advantage of the potential savings of LEDs, a homeowner would, like Kamen, have a Teletrol building controller to control the LEDs. These systems start at several thousand dollars and go way up from there. The controller is incredibly granular. Tapping through a succession of screens on the display in the basement, Kamen eventually gets to a plot of the day’s energy generation. The red and black lines hover at zero during the nighttime hours, creep up a bit around dawn, then rise steeply at around 7 a.m. But what happens when the island gets neither sun nor wind? A Stirling engine contains a sealed cylinder, one end hot, the other cool, with a sliding piston that moves the gas back and forth. But Kamen says the concept of ”waste heat” changes with context. His own machine typically produces 1 kilowatt of electricity, enough to power 128 LED lights, each equivalent to a 60-W incandescent. They’re also truly and deeply rechargeable.
You Ain't No Picasso This year was kind of a bum year for music. Nothing thrilled me like it had for the past four years and few new bands really stuck out. In fact, it was kind of an off year for tours as well. #30: The Whigs @ the Dame [ Original Post ] I saw the Whigs twice in 2008, but their show at the Dame — the first time I’d seen them — was the best. #29: We Are Scientists @ the Southgate House [ Original Post ] I thought We Are Scientists’ Brain Thrust Mastery was an OK album, but they really one-upped their live show in 2008. #28: Andrew Bird @ Memorial Hall [MusicNOW] [ Original Post ] Maybe one of my least favorite times I’ve seen Andrew Bird, but still good enough to crack the list. #27: The Cool Kids @ Gorilla vs Booze [SXSW] [ Original Post ] The Cool Kids are pretty popular these days. #26: Jens Lekman @ Club DeVille [Hot Freaks! [ Original Post ] We lucked into getting Jens Lekman to play our Hot Freaks! #25: Islands @ the Mohawk [Hot Freaks! #24: Kevin Barnes @ Club DeVille [Hot Freaks/SXSW]

Chicken Gyro The word gyro actually refers to the way the meat is cooked on the vertical rotisserie and sliced into thin strips. In most places in the US however, it refers to the pita rollup the meat is served to you on, and the other fillings inside. This sandwich can't traditionally be called a gyro because it is made with chicken, but I just love how the mild flavor of the chicken contrasts with the sharpness of the cheese and olives. We decided to make these when Mandi was craving olives and feta, but didn't know what she wanted them with. We had just made naan and loved it and wanted to make it again, and that's when I realized the naan is very similar to the Greek flatbread the gyro is served on. Not much choice of olives here in Bermuda. If you hit the olives with the side of your knife, the pits come right out. We added a bit of garlic and parsley to the olive salad or tapenade. seeds removed from everything. If you eat onions raw, be sure to soak or rinse them first to take the edge off. OK.
