Alex Karpenko, 35, who teaches English, was taught how to shave with everyday objects by his Second World War veteran grandfather.

But he did it, and turned Apple into a household name with massive profits, by exploiting child and near-slave labor to the point that their contract factories in China have...

Good pictures of a beautiful spot, one of my favorites. I hope you also went up the Elwha River and perhaps saw Hurricane Ridge. Thanks! We did drive up to Hurricane Ridge. Beautiful place for sure. http://s1.postimage.org/1e3pe84n8/IMG_2557s.jpg Live Web Cam (same view as photo but live): http://w...

Great story. I did a little of this sort for my dad back in the day. Wish I had done more now looking back. He certainly deserved it.

Nice place to hang out. 8) I was nine years old in 1961, but I don't really remember Kenedy doing this. Glad he did. Really nice color rendition on the photos and good sharpness too. Your 500x355 size images have a little larger file size than my 712x400 that I just posted. Maybe you have less compr...
