Link Dump 2008.11.14

This linked dump started many months ago and I never finished compiling it. Rather than start over with a new one I just updated the old draft with the current date and some newer links after the originals.

Famous Marvel Buildings and their real-life equivalents – I saw this and thought it was neat. This guy went to the addresses of some buildings such as the Baxter Building (Fantastic Four), The Daily Bugle (Spider-man) and Strange’s Sanctorum (Dr. Strange) and took a picture of the actual buildings residing there.

One of the books I’ve been reading fanatically has been the Immortal Iron Fist from Marvel. ‘The Last Iron Fist’ story is now one of my all time favorites. Brendan linked me to some line art that had been done for the book. Neat stuff.

Swimsuits appearing at the past Olympics and tested by NASA – I thought this was pretty neat.

Fanboy has made it into the dictionary.

The back of Yulia Tymoshenko’s head. This is a really prominent politician in the Ukraine. She apparently is known for her style. Her current hair-do involves a thick braid wrapped around the back of her head making it look like a crown. Its actually pretty neat, but I don’t see how that can all be real hair judging by the constant thickness of the braid throughout its length.

And now to reaffirm my masculinity:
The expanded beard chart.

My Little Pony Customs. This is some really impressive kitbashing. I think my favorites are MyLittleStormtrooper (pictured above) and My Little Alien.

Barack Obama has released a flickr set of photos from election night. It really gives a personal view of events as they happened from his end of the spectrum. Its a fascinating set of photos.
