Below is the paragraph about me,
Graphic designer Daniel Afrahim’s Web site, designbydaniel.com (which runs neck and neck with Cass’s in search results), was built to resemble a portfolio, with pages you can tab through to find work examples, accolades and more.

Web Typography
With a technological revolution and 500 years of typographic tradition under our belts, why in the world has the Web been stuck with Verdana and Arial for so long? There are now multiple ways to include custom fonts in an HTML document, and each has its advantages and drawbacks. In this session, from the creator of the renowned CSS Zen Garden, you'll learn about these methods, see how to implement them, and find out when and why they make sense for your projects.

Utah Teapot Story
The Utah teapot or Newell teapot is a 3D model which has become a standard reference object (and something of an in-joke) in the computer graphics community. Like in 3D Max! It is a mathematical model of an ordinary teapot of comparatively simple shape, which appears solid, cylindrical and partially convex. The idea was that if you can make a 3D teapot, then you make anything in 3D!
The teapot model was created in 1975 by early computer graphics researcher Martin Newell, a member of the pioneering graphics program at the University of Utah.

SIGGRAPH Announces 2008 Winners (Computer Animation Festival)
SIGGRAPH announced the Computer Animation Festival's Best of Show, Jury Award, Student Prize, Audience Prize, and a special Well Told Fable Prize for SIGGRAPH 2008, the 35th International Conference and Exhibition on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques.
"The caliber of submissions this year was truly phenomenal, which made the jury's job especially difficult," said Jill Smolin, SIGGRAPH 2008 Conference Entertainment Director. "The winners truly showcase what is possible today and provide a glimpse into what artists can achieve in the future. Really, the only limitation is the imagination."
Award and prize winners were chosen from hundreds of submissions from around the globe, presented by both professional studios and students alike. An expert panel of jury members selected the winners for exemplary use of computer-generated imagery, animation, and storytelling. SIGGRAPH Computer Graphics Award Recipient Ken Perlin and a host of industry presenters recognized the nominees and winners in a fun, lively awards ceremony.
Best of Show Winner
Oktapodi
Gobelins, l'ecole de l'image, France
Gobelins' third-year students direct this animated short about two octopi in their comical escape from the grasps of a stubborn and determined restaurant cook.
Best Student Piece Winner
893
Supinfocom, France
These students combine story and style in this tale of honor, tradition, and imagination.
Jury Award Winner
Mauvais Role
École Superieure de Realisation Audiovisuelle, France
This is a tale that shows that you can achieve whatever you want, regardless of the opinions that surround you. Watch as a monster constantly cast in games, finds his perfect job in a game that you'd never choose for him.
Best Well Told Fable Prize
Our Wonderful Nature
Hochschule fur Film und Fernsehen
"Konrad Wolf" Potsdam-Babelsberg
This documentary uses time stretching, film camera work, and creative sound design to tell the story of water shrews in the wild.

Apple iPhone + Subway Map
As you know you can take advantage of the iPhone's thumbnail system for your photos but what you need to know is that, you can do the same with your city's subway map! Basically this map includes few sliced images from the actual subway map in such a way that you can pan across the map with the forward and back buttons. Subway maps usually are available as a PDF file but navigating the few hundred kilo bytes PDF file on the iPhone is very slow yet (beside the connection!). Also some of the disadvantages by using these kind of maps is that sometimes they have so many details and a little bit complicated! And if you have low res images you can’t really use the map (distorted and pixilated images).
I just collected couple of links from different websites! You can download these packages below and upload the images to your iPhone and use them the same way you browse your pictures.
- New York City iPhone Subway Map by Clint Bagwell Consulting
- New York City iPhone Subway Map by Khoi Vinh
- London Underground iPhone Subway Map by Randy Plemel
- Washington D.C. Metro Map by Jack Barse
Also,
- Tokyo Subway System iPhone Map
- Greater Tokyo JR Railway iPhone System Map
- Santiago de Chile Railway iPhone System Map
- San Francisco BART iPhone Map
- Paris iPhone Subway Map
- Boston iPhone Subway Map
Other Option
Filemarks let you store high res images, text files, and PDFs on an iPhone! There aren’t any good ways to do this with the built in Apple tools - you can use iPhoto to copy images, but they’ll be scaled down and become unreadable. If you want to read a pdf on your phone, you have to either email it to yourself or browse to it in Safari. Filemarks store your file’s data inside a bookmark. When you want to view your file, you open the bookmark in Safari on the iPhone and you can view it, whether your phone is online or offline.
Basically Filemarks let you store much higher quality images than the built in photo application. Check it out,

Thank you

570 Lexington Avenue
570 Lexington Avenue
(formerly the GE Building and originally the RCA Building)
(S. E. corner at 51st Street)
Developer: The RCA Victor Company
Architect: Cross & Cross
Erected: 1931
The General Electric Building is a historic 50-floor skyscraper in Midtown New York City, United States, at 570 Lexington Avenue (southwest corner of Lexington and 51st Street). Originally known as the "RCA Victor Building" when designed by Cross and Cross in 1931, and sometimes known by its address to avoid confusion with the later GE Building at 30 Rockefeller Center.
It backs up to the low Byzantine dome of St. Bartholomew's Church on Park Avenue and shares the same salmon brick color. But from Lexington, the building is an insistently tall 50-foot stylized Gothic tower with its own identity, a classic Art Deco visual statement of suggested power through simplification. The base contains elaborate, generous masonry, architectural figural sculpture, and at on the corner above the main entrance, a conspicuous corner clock with the curvy GE logo and a pair of silver disembodied forearms. The crown of the building is a dynamic-looking burst of Gothic tracery, which is supposed to represent radio waves, and is lit from within at night.
