The population is rapidly aging and becoming a larger share of the marketplace. Thirteen percent of the population is currently over 65 years old. In 30 years that group will double to 66 million people. People change as they age. Sensory, cognitive and motor abilities decline. The built environment is not typically created with the needs of the aging population in mind. How does the choice of typeface in signage systems, for example, impact the older viewer who is experiencing vision problems typical to that age group? Are certain typefaces more suitable to the aging eye? - Your Shot – Daily Dozen – National Geographic Magazine
My husband and I were exploring Lake Minnewanka in Banff National Park, Canada, when we stopped for a timed picture of the two of us.

Samsung lança aparelho composto por bioplástico produzido a partir do cereal - Visualização: considerações sobre a terminologia
Por todo esse histórico do termo e sua disseminação, é improvável que vejamos alguma mudança na terminologia da área. Mas é bom ter em mente que assim como não projetamos interações ou experiências ou comportamentos (projetamos artefatos para interações ou experiências ou comportamentos), não projetamos visualizações, mas apresentações visuais. A visualização aqui é o objetivo, não o meio que temos. O meio que temos para manipular são as apresentações visuais, que se formos bem sucedidos, funcionarão como artefatos cognitivos. - Coding A HTML 5 Layout From Scratch | How-To, Tutorials | Smashing Magazine
HTML5 and CSS3 have just arrived (kinda), and with them a whole new battle for the ‘best markup’ trophy has begun. Truth to be told, all these technologies are mere tools waiting for a skilled developer to work on the right project. As developers we shouldn’t get into pointless discussions of which markup is the best. They all lead to nowhere. Rather, we must get a brand new ideology and modify our coding habits to keep the web accessible. - The longest solar eclipse of the century – The Big Picture – Boston.com
Earlier today, the moon passed directly in front of the sun, causing a total solar eclipse that crossed nearly half the Earth – through India, Nepal, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Myanmar and China.

Collected here are a few images of the eclipse, and those people who came out to watch. - V @ TCMLA.

Não arrisco generalizações, mas, no caso do Ultraje, uma resposta parece-me bastante plausível. Roger é dos maiores letristas do rock nacional porque combina, em seus textos, de um lado, o coloquialismo, linguagem simples que o público quer e que as guitarras pedem, e, de outro, um sarcasmo que espeta os setores mais conservadores de nossa sociedade. - O que recebemos do Senado que custa 1/4 do Bolsa Família « políticAética

Spotted this coaster-brake conversion on Hawthorne. This bike is ready for action, with a striped hand-knitted toptube cozy and a bolt-on bottle opener. I usually think bike-attached bottle-openers are a little silly. But this one has a pleasing utilitarian flair.
