<p>When the latest Mission Impossible movie debuts in December, it will be impossible not to notice the cars Tom Cruise is driving. BMW will be at the forefront.</p>
<p>Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol will make as much of the German luxury car brand as it does of superstar Cruise.</p>
<p>Several BMW vehicles &#8212; including the futuristic BMW Vision EfficientDynamics, the concept car for the forthcoming BMW i8, the BMW 6 Series Convertible &#8212; are driven by Tom Cruise&#8217;s character, Ethan Hunt. They are prominently featured in several key action sequences.</p>
<p>BMW will make sure audiences won&#8217;t miss its participation with an ad campaign built around its participation. Of course, there will be a &#8220;self-destructing&#8221; sales offer.</p>
<p>BMW is even going to offer special screenings to its customers.</p>
<p>&#8220;The film allows us a wonderful opportunity to showcase not only BMW&#8217;s vision for future vehicles but to highlight some of the newest and most popular cars in our current fleet,&#8221; said Trudy Hardy, manager of Marketing Communications and Consumer Events at BMW of North America. &#8220;The synergies between BMW&#8217;s high-performance vehicles and one of the most action-packed film franchises on the big screen were perfect.&#8221;

<h3>2. Tilt-Shift Photography</h3>
<p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tilt-shift_photography">Tilt-shift photography</a> refers to the use of camera movements on small- and medium-format cameras; it usually requires the use of special lenses.</p>
<p>“Tilt-shift” actually encompasses two different types of movements: rotation of the lens relative to the image plane, called tilt, and movement of the lens parallel to the image plane, called shift. Tilt is used to control the orientation of the plane of focus (PoF), and hence the part of an image that appears sharp; it makes use of the Scheimpflug principle. Shift is used to change the line of sight while avoiding the convergence of parallel lines, as when photographing tall buildings.</p>
<p>Another, less cost-intensive technique called “<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tilt-shift_miniature_faking">tilt-shift miniature faking</a>” is a process in which a photograph of a life-sized location or object is manipulated so that it looks like a photograph of a miniature-scale model.</p>

<p>Over the recent months we’ve been presenting various showcases of photography – while many readers hated the showcases, most readers found them inspirational and perfect for a lousy workday’s morning. However, what we should have done in the inspirational posts is not just provide you with some inspiration for your work, but also present useful photographic techniques which can help you to achieve optimal pictures for your designs. And as requested by many of you, now it’s time to correct our mistake.</p>
<p>In this post we present useful photographic techniques, tutorials and resources for various kinds of photography. You’ll learn how to set up the perfect environment and what techniques, principles and rules of thumbs you should consider when shooting your next perfect photo. This round-up isn’t supposed to be the ultimate one – please feel free to suggest more useful articles in the comments to this post.</p>
<p>Among other things, we cover high-speed photography, tilt-shift photography, black and white photography, motion blur, infrared, night, smoke photography, macro photography, HDR, panoramic photography, RAW processing and others. Hopefully, you’ll find many of the listed tutorials and how-tos useful for your regular work.

</div>
<p>On the eve of the 2010 FIFA World Cup, <strong>FIFA.com</strong> spoke to some the Host City coordinators about the mood and the  atmosphere in their cities just a few hours from kickoff.</p>
<p>“Port Elizabeth has never had an iconic  structure, like Cape Town has Table Mountain. Now we have our stadium.  It has altered our skyline and we are proud of this,” said Nelson  Mandela Bay/Port Elizabeth Host City Coordinator, Errol Heynes.</p>
<p>“People have been waiting to get into the mood.  We had mass Diski Dance lessons, beach festivals and football  festivals. Two weeks ago we had a big party in one of the surrounding  townships when FIFA President Blatter came to our city. We can&#8217;t wait  for it, the whole city is in a festive mood.”</p>
<p>Durban is home to its eye catching new stadium, which has ensured  that the city has caught World Cup fever. “People are very positive  about the World Cup here in Durban, the infrastructure and  beautification programmes have provided a new vibe in the city. In the  future we will look back and say ‘Look at what we have done’,” said  Julie-May Ellingson, Durban Host City Coordinator.</p>
<p>Durban is looking to its mild atmosphere, beach  front and abundant accommodation as draw factors for the tournament&#8217;s  fans. “It is a good season in Durban, we have made sure that we cater to  a family atmosphere, in the fan zones and around the city.”</p>
<p>Tshwane/Pretoria has the second largest number  of embassies in the worlds after Washington D.C. and as such will be  hoping to leverage on this international diversity during the  celebrations of the tournament. “We are hosting the South Africa versus  Uruguay match in our city which we are very excited about, but we are  excited about all our matches and we are going to be hospitable to all  our guests, the fans are welcome,” said Tshwane/Pretoria’s Host City  Coordinator, Godfrey Nkwane.</p>
<p>Polokwane is  one of the smaller venues on the 2010 FIFA World Cup roster, but the  stadium will be hosting a very big game when France and Mexico go head  to head. “We are very excited by this game, we will really have the  whole world in Polokwane on that day,” said Polokwane Host City  Coordinator, Ndavhe Ramakuela.</p>
<p>The city of Mangaung/Bloemfontein has one of  the strongest local fan bases in the country, this was shown in the  Confederations Cup, when the supporters demonstrated their unique brand  of passion. “We recognise these fans,” said George Mohlakoana, the  city’s Host City Coordinator. “In fact as part of our social  responsibility we have bought tickets for local fans, because it is  these people who make local football what it is.”</p>
<p>Johannesburg is without doubt the football hub  for the upcoming 2010 FIFA World Cup, with two match venues in the city  limits and the privilege of hosting both the opening and final matches.  “Our people make Joburg great. It is humbling to see the South African  flag flying so high. People really want to be part of this,” said the  city’s 2010 coordinator, Sibongile Khumalo “</p>
<p>Cape Town showed their party spirit during the Final Draw ceremony  last year and already the excitement in the city is palpable. “Cape  Town has its own pace,” explains Peter Cronje, the city’s Communication  Director. “The atmosphere is there. There are events all over the city,  the highways are lined with flags and there are so many decorations  going up everywhere. As with the Final Draw, Cape Town will come to the  party.”

<p class="wp-caption-text">Long Island Band</p>
</div>
<p>The story of <a href="http://www.fullhousemusic.com/band-corp.php">Full House</a> begins over 25 years ago, when Joe Scollo teamed up with bassist Bob Sole. Joe and Bob shared a mutual admiration and respect for the music of The Beatles and the melodic rock and roll of the 60s and 70s. From that point, the band&#8217;s musical palette has been ever-expanding to include the most popular songs from every era and multiple genres as well as the best current music with an ear toward audience recognition and danceability.</p>
<p>Joe and his long time partner and collaborator, keyboardist Keith Hill form the heart and soul of Full House and possess a sincere respect for all of the music they perform. Their mission and standard is to recreate and emulate each individual artist and particular song while maintaining the spontaneity and excitement that a live performance demands.</p>
<p>It is that ideal that Full House has built their reputation on and will continue to deliver.</p>
<p>Throughout our career, we have performed in Long Island&#8217;s and the tri-state area&#8217;s most popular venues. A list of some of our more notable clients include many celebrities from the sports world, such as Bill Parcells, Wayne Gretzky, Brian Leetch, Rick Pitino, Joe Pepitone, Whitey Ford, Bobby Valentine, Bret Saberhagen, and Mike Francesa (WFAN).</p>
<p>Our gimmick has always been no gimmick &#8211; just the music, performed authentically and true to the original artists, with a high energy presentation. All of our 8 band members have impressive resumes, and we can add more musicians (horn players, percussionists, etc.) or any performer you wish to suit your individual needs and taste.</p>
<p>Long Island has long been known as a hotbed for &#8220;cover&#8221; bands, and at times that term has gotten a bad connotation. Full House is The Ultimate Cover Band, and it is our ultimate compliment to wear that title.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s face it &#8211; when hiring a band for your special event, you want a band with experience in working an audience and performing proven songs that you and all your guests will know and love. No other band can deliver that as completely and consistently as Full House.</p>
<p>We will attend to every facet of your musical production, from helping you choose your special songs, general songlist, special announcements and introductions, and we will cordially answer any questions or concerns that you may have.</p>
<p>We also offer different options for your wedding ceremony and cocktail hour from keyboardist, acoustic guitarist, vocalists, woodwinds and brass to classical string ensembles,harpists, and even reggae/island musicians.</p>
<p>Remember, the cuisine can be exquisite and delicious, the venue beautiful and elegant, but if the music is not the best your affair won&#8217;t be complete.</p>
<p>You deserve the best at your affair, and Full House would love to be an essential component &#8220;For The Event Of Your Life.&#8221;</p>

<p>An Adirondack treasure, a fun-filled vacation spot&#8230;Lake George is the place  to go when you want to do it all.</p>
<p>Lake  George, <strong>located in the foothills of the Adirondacks</strong>, is  approximately 32 miles long and is nearly 3 miles wide. Much of the shoreline is  unsettled, and through federal and state conservation efforts, will remain so.  Small communities surround the lake, each lending its own unique style and way  of life.</p>
<p>Of these, the village of Lake George offers the largest mix of attractions,  restaurants, shops and nightlife. You can walk within a two-block radius and  rent a boat, watch a war reenactment, relax on the beach, take a cruise, play  miniature golf, parasail, hit the arcades, ride in a horse drawn carriage, have  a cocktail overlooking the lake, or just relax on a bench and watch the world go  by. The variety of sounds, images, and tastes are as varied as the people who  flock to Lake George each <strong>year to enjoy a relaxed and fun-filled  vacation</strong>.</p>
<p>There are numerous lodging options available within Lake George village,  outside the village or in other nearby communities such as Diamond Point or the  town of Bolton. Whether you like to pitch your tent under the stars, relax by  the motel pool, or bunk with the kids in a rustic Adirondack cabin, <strong>you  will find just the right place to call home during your stay</strong>.</p>
<p><strong>Lake George in the Adirondacks is approximately 32 miles long and is nearly 3  miles wide.</strong></p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1207" title="lake-george-tour" src="http://longislandguides.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lake-george-tour.jpg" alt="lake-george-tour" width="200" height="133" />Much of the Lake George shoreline, particularly the eastern shore,  is unsettled. Due to the tight restrictions, through federally and state  administered conservation efforts, it will forever remain so. The shoreline  ranges from beautiful, quiet, sandy beaches to rocky crags, cliffs, marshes and  tall hemlock stands.</p>
<p>The water quality and clarity is excellent. In fact the water of Lake George  is so clean, many of the summer and year round residents take their daily  drinking water directly from the lake, without purification.</p>
<p>Scuba diving is very popular in Lake George. Not only does the water clarity  lend itself to this form of activity, the local history of the Adirondack region  demands the avid diver to come and explore. Historic shipwrecks abound. There  are numerous underwater sites to discover and explore. These sites are  protected. It is forbidden to disturb or remove any artifact found in the lake.  But who knows, maybe you will be the one to find a French and Indian war cannon  or shipwreck!<a href="http://www.lakegeorgelodging.net/"> Lake George Lodging</a></p>
<p>Boating on the lake runs the gamut from small personal watercraft like jet  skies, to the large tour boats. Boating is one of the most popular activities on  the lake and throughout the Adirondacks. With so many miles of water, crowded  conditions are rare. There are also great places for boaters to congregate.  Places like Paradise and Log Bay are popular sites for families to anchor for a  day of swimming. You will find that boaters on Lake George are very friendly,  helpful people. If you bring your boat to the lake, as many visitors do, you  will find it easy to launch and dock. You will also need to purchase a Lake  George Park Commission boat permit, which can be purchased at the Lake George  Regional Chamber of Commerce main office and most marinas.</p>
<p>If quiet is your objective, you can pull your yacht into a secluded cove and  spend the entire day in relative privacy. Many of the islands on the lake are  state owned and managed. For a small fee, you can reserve a campsite for a  night, week, or longer.</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1209" title="lake-george-boat" src="http://longislandguides.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lake-george-boat.jpg" alt="lake-george-boat" width="200" height="133" />There are great shoreline picnic spots available as well. A list of these  sites can be had by calling the Lake George Regional Chamber of Commerce.</p>
<p>During the summer, a number of boat shows occur. Everyone’s favorite is <a href="http://www.lakegeorgechamber.com/lake_george_calendar_events.htm">The  Antique and Classic Boat Show</a>. This year’s show will be held at the public  docks in <a href="http://www.lakegeorgelodging.net/">Lake George Village</a> on August 24th.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.lakegeorgechamber.com/fishing_lake_george.htm">Fishing</a> on  the lake has long been a draw for many an angler. You can sit peacefully on a  dock and drop a line down for some pan fish like Perch, Sunnies and Rock Bass,  or you can head out on the open water. If you don’t own a boat, or would like to  learn the best techniques for landing the big ones, several charter fishing  companies will take you and your party out for a day of exciting fishing.
