First comes Christmas , next comes the New Year. Time flies and now we’re just a few more days to welcoming 2012. The Mayan prophecy may have predicted that the end of the world would occur soon, but that doesn’t stop us from taking this chance to celebrate the time of renewal. (Photo by: Blacksky200 ) New resolutions await for us to pursue despite what people often say about not fulfilling them. It is a time of hope for better days in the next 365 days. What better ways to than to start a new year than to start with a bang? I meant it both literally and metaphorically. Watch out for stunning fireworks in your city or town and get blown away with the sight and sound! While you count down to a new beginning, take a look at some awesome fireworks from previous New Year’s Day in various places around the world. Full list after jump.

May 2010 saw rock icon Slash release his debut solo album “Slash” on Roadrunner Records. The album features an all-star roster of guest musicians including Ian Astbury, Chris Cornell, Rocco DeLuca, Fergie, Dave Grohl, Myles Kennedy, Kid Rock, Lemmy Kilmister, Adam Levine of Maroon 5, Duff McKagan, M. Shadows of Avenged Sevenfold, Ozzy Osbourne, Iggy Pop, and Andrew Stockdale of Wolfmother.

Slash handled the majority of arranging and songwriting duties and hand-picked each guest artist. The album was released to widespread critical acclaim and saw Slash headlining a sold out UK tour as well as show stealing performances at Download, Glastonbury and Wireless festivals in the UK. Roadrunner released “Beautiful Dangerous” as a single in early 2011. The single fe...

Apple has announced that the Mac App Store has now reached over 100 million downloads, pretty impressive considering that the Mac App Store was launched less than a year ago. Apple did not release any specific information about how many applications are available in the Mac App Store, although they did say there were over 500,000 applications available in their overall app store, which includes iOS apps and Mac apps. “In just three years the App Store changed how people get mobile apps, and now the Mac App Store is changing the traditional PC software industry,” said Philip Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing. “With more than 100 million downloads in less than a year, the Mac App Store is the largest and fastest growing PC software store in the world.” The Mac App store is obviously another success for Apple, 100 million downloads in less than a year is impressive. source

Okay Chicago, let's do this. Winter, the absurd season that strikes fear in the hearts and closets of Chi-town, has truly arrived. You had the chance to wear your cutest sweaters, trousers, and fun fingerless gloves in fall. That's like, so over, but you've still got the chance to show some style , we promise! Fight the urge to wrap up in a gazillion chunky knits and never leave the house again. There's a big, frozen world out there and we'll help you figure out what to wear to fight frost with fashion, all season long. For starters, we've found one smart, toasty warm, and (of course) completely cute outfit that will help you make a seamless change from fall to winter . Give these warm layers a try, then keep your creative coziness flowing for the next few months. If you get stuck, don't be scared (or house-bound). You've got us, and our styling skills, and we're not going anywhere. source

Gone are the days of harsh overhead lighting (remember the kitchen in your childhood home?) that made everyone underneath it look gaunt, sick and haunted.  As more and more homes and offices alike are retrofitted with modern light fixtures, a wildly inventive naturalist streak is becoming more widely available across the — forgive us — spectrum of hanging lights on the market.  While the  Comet lamp, pictured here, gives us an unbridled burst of illumination in every possible direction, the wide hanging pendant lamp from Abbey Dakari keeps things simple with its basic rectangular shape and straightforward stream of light.  Whichever one you favor, though, is sure to add a little extra sparkle to your space; from the understated to the in-your-face, these six lamps have style to spare.

If we spend a third of our lives asleep, it stands to reason that our beds should be pretty grand.  While canopy beds these days are far less necessary than they were upon invention, when they protected their inhabitants from the elements infiltrating the thatched roofs under which they lived, or during their heyday in medieval Europe when they began featuring curtains drawn for privacy from servants sleeping in the same room, they still evoke a certain sense of grandeur.  Today’s roundup of artfully adorned four-poster beds with a little extra something up top ranges from the traditional (simple wooden planks forming a broad cube) to the uber-modern (replete with built-in home theater system and automated sliding shades).  Sleep well, and sweet dreams!

Variety of sunglasses produced nowadays is huge but it is always possible to divide it into several categories which summarize the fashion trends for a particular season. For Spring/ Summer 2012 we have traced 6 sunglasses trends some of which are really extravagant and stylish while others are more traditional and even classic. Cat eye sunglasses have been very trendy for a few seasons already and will remain as hot during Spring/ Summer 2012. Eyewear in this shape comes in different colors and décor and can be very playful or more austere. Sunglasses in quirky shapes are new in vogue but many designers try hard to popularize them. Heart, oval and even diamond-shaped eyewear looks fresh and can be a perfect choice for girls who aren’t afraid to look funny and attract attention. Round glasses are classic and worn by such big names as Elton John and Lady Gaga. But for Spring/ Summer 2012 round sunglasses won’t be that simple. Frames and lens will be in different hues an...

One area in which the iPhone 4S has gotten a major update is its camera. All-new specs have led Apple to dub the upgraded snapper the “you-can’t-believe-it’s-on-a-phone-camera.” This improved camera, which has yet to be independently tested, could be big news. As Apple stated in its 4S presentation , the iPhone 4 is now the most popular camera for uploading pictures on Flickr with over 16,179,186 items uploaded. Apple is hoping the iPhone 4S will encourage even more people to leave their point-and-shoot cameras at home. While Apple has been a little vague on the exact technical changes (which we won’t know before a tear-down report), and real-life results have yet to be seen, the new specs appear to promise compact camera quality from a phone. Take a look through the gallery of Apple’s unedited sample iPhone 4S shots below in which we highlight the major changes. Let us know in the comments if you’re excited by the photographic abilities of the 4...
