Long hair and even longer limbs is the theme of this erotic shoot by photographer Michael Willian featuring models Katia Selinger and Gracie Hans. The super sexy, beauty pictorial is from independent Brazilian publication, U+MAG‘s fittingly named, Sex Tape Issue.
The post KATIA & GRACIE’S SEX TAPE appeared first on Treats! Magazine.
By Alexander Yarosh. The position above was reached in a legal game, except that one piece has been knocked off the board. What was it?
From a letter from George Patton to his son, written on D-Day:
At 0700 this morning the BBC announced that the German radio had just come out with an announcement of the landing of Allied paratroops and of large numbers of assault craft near shore. So that is it. …
All men are timid on entering any fight whether it is the first fight or the last fight all of us are timid. Cowards are those who let their timidity get the better of their manhood. You will never do that because of your blood lines on both sides. I think I have told you the story of Marshal Touraine who fought under Louis XIV. On the morning of one of his last battles — he had been fighting for forty years — he was mounting his horse when a young ADC who had just come from the court and had never missed a meal or heard a hostile shot said: ‘M. de Touraine it amazes me that a man of your supposed courage should permit his knees to tremble as he walks out to mount.’ Touraine replied: ‘My lord duke I admit that my knees do tremble but should they know where I shall this day take them they would shake even more.’ That is it. Your knees may shake but they will always take you toward the enemy.
Artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster find self-portraits in arrangements of domestic trash. Their Dirty White Trash (with Gulls) (1998, right) was contrived from the six months’ rubbish they produced while making it, a sculpture produced by the residue of its own composition.
More shadow art: Shigeo Fukuda, Larry Kagan, Richard Haas.
Somewhat related: Last year travelers from Washington state to Vancouver were surprised to discover this “negative space” billboard by the side of the road. It was created by Daniel Mihalyo and Annie Han of Seattle-based art collective Lead Pencil Studio. Most billboards draw the eye away from the environment; this draws the eye to it.
(Thanks, Alex and Bob.)

Tim Krabbé calls this “one of the funniest chess problems I ever saw.” Its composer, M. Kirtley, won first prize with it in a Problemist tourney in 1986.
It’s a selfmate in 8, which means that White must force Black to checkmate him 8 moves, despite Black’s best efforts to avoid doing so.
The solution is a single line — all of Black’s moves are forced:
1. Nb1+ Kb3 2. Qd1+ Rc2 3. Bc1 axb6 4. Ra1 b5 5. Rh1 bxc4 6. Ke1 c3 7. Ng1 f3 8. Bf1 f2#
All of White’s pieces have returned to their starting squares!
The horror.
Not sure if you heard the news, but Facebook was down today. Inaccessible, a mirage. A void where once there was connection. People took it...well.

Facebook has been down for 15 minutes and I'm freaking out because I don't know if anyone is having babies, eating food, eating babies, etc.

Tip: If you are listed as “Married” or “In a Relationship” on Facebook, you can commit as much adultery as you want while the site is down
