New Year’s Eve Traditions
http://distributedresearch.net/blog/2009/12/31/new-years-eve-traditions
There are some old New Year’s Eve traditions, like staying at home, drinking and watching Jools Holland’s Hootenanny, and then there are some new ones like posting a list of significant blog posts from the passing year, and failing to make any significant predictions. So this year it’s Tom Jones, Kasabian, Paolo Nutini, Dizzee Rascal, Lily Allen, Roger Daltrey, Florence and the machine, Rodrigo Y Gabriela, Paloma Faith, Dave Edmunds, Shingai Shoniwa, Rico Rodriguez, Ruby Turner and Boy George. Dave Edmunds? And here are the hand selected posts from 2009:
Rowan Tree Folk Song A new song written in Scotland How to Photograph a Ghost Part of a series of screencasts about Mac Image editing Blog Action Day – When The Waters Rise Theatre Breaks Magazine On the launch of a new magazine style theatre blog Now I’ve Got Swine Flu – Really Live blogging the symptoms Location independent working – First excursions into the world of location independent working H1N1 Swine Flu Symptoms News blogging epidemiology at the outset Grace Hopper on Ada Lovelace Day Business as usual in the US

Seashore Image Editing Tutorial 5 – Tinting
http://distributedresearch.net/blog/2009/12/27/seashore-mac-image-editing-tutorial-5-tinting
This is the last in my series of five image editing tutorials using Seashore for Mac. Previous video tutorials have covered:
Layers The Clone Tool Colour Select How to Photograph a Ghost
The topic for this latest video (5) is “tinting”, a technique for adding or changing colour tones for discrete areas within an image. The screencast video itself was a little too long to upload to youTube in one piece, so I’ve spit it into two parts, part 1 and part 2. Image Editing Video Tutorial – Tinting Part 1 Click here to view the embedded video. Image Editing Video Tutorial – Tinting Part 2 Click here to view the embedded video. The picture used to illustrate the selective tinting technique is available for practice and has a creative commons license which means that it can be reproduced should you wish to do so, with proper linked attribution. image editing picture : Houseboat before

Winter Solstice The Shortest Day
http://distributedresearch.net/blog/2009/12/21/winter-solstice-the-shortest-day
I’m not exactly sure if the Winter Solstice should be celebrated on the 21st December each year in the Northern Hemisphere, or on the shortest day which culd be the 21st or the 22nd. The actual solstice itself, is just a moment which occurs when the earth’s tilt is furthest from the Sun, so the Sun’s path across the daytime sky, when it reaches the maximum height, is the lowest of the year. In the Southern Hemishere the seasons are reversed so the winter solstice is around June 21st and they will be having a Summer solstice or longest day while we are urging the Sun to start coming back again, here in the North. Probably the best thing to do on the eve of the longest night is to create some light and warmth by lighting a fire, and making merry, so it’s lucky that I still have one portion of barbecue charcoal left, and some wood offcuts from the log pile. There’s still some snow on the ground too, so that’s very appropriate.

Redpoll
Originally uploaded by ArunMarsh
A redpoll visited our wintry East London garden today, part of a small mixed flock of birds including Great Tits. It’s the first one I’ve seen, and this brings the garden birds list total up to 25. There’s snow on the ground and plenty of birds are out there stocking up on the wild bird food we put out for them. The solitary squirrel who took up residence a year or so ago has found a mate, and they can both tightrope walk across the clothes line to get to the bird feeders, which provides entertainment but it seems they are afraid of starlings, so when a flock of those comes by all the other little birds get their feeders back for a while, not to mention the woodpecker.

Theatre Breaks London
Originally uploaded by AndyRob
Time for another quick round up of the West End shows. London theatreland at the end of 2009 is beginning to adapt slightly to the changing economy and the initial bravado about the industry being recession-proof has faded. The same old shows are still playing to nearly full audiences in the West End, but the theatre going public is expecting to be able to find bargain packages and special offers before committing to future bookings. As ever, a large part of the London audience is comprised of visitors to the capital, more from abroad and a few less from the UK regions. The percentage of foreign language speaking ticket buyers has even been recognised by theatre managers with Hairspray trialling a gizmo that provides a text translation in sync with the show in several popular languages. New West End Shows, London 2010 Love Never Dies Andrew Lloyd Webber insists this is not a sequel to Phantom of the Opera but the plot continues the story 10 years later with the same characters. Opening in the West End London in March 2010 The Wizard of Oz The Wizard of Oz is going to be as well known as Oliver because of a similar TV contest to find Dorothy, a show called “Over The Rainbow” Chicago Not a new show as such but Chicago in London manages to keep fresh interest through a series of creative cast chaproblems settle down. nges. Early in 2010, West end favourite Ruthie Henshall returns to play Roxy. Moonshadow
