The proper way to Facebook-stalk a crush without them noticing.

There is a right way to Facebook-stalk someone (discreetly) and a wrong way. The wrong way involves liking photos or statuses from months ago, on the pages of people you don't know, or mentioning in real life that you were on their profile page.

This is good practice for knowing how future employers will be looking at your kids on Google and what controversial content they should hide from prying eyes.

Ask and you shall receive. On Letters To India users get a glimpse into the wicked and twisted world of the film’s main character via transfixing cinemagraphs.

According to the press release:

After India's (Mia Wasikowska's) father dies in an auto accident, her Uncle Charlie (Matthew Goode), who she never knew existed, comes to live with her and her emotionally unstable mother Evelyn (Nicole Kidman). Soon after his arrival, she comes to suspect this mysterious, charming man has ulterior motives, but instead of feeling outrage or horror, this friendless girl becomes increasingly infatuated with him.

Directed by Oldboy alum Chan-wook Park in his American film debut, Stoker premiered at Sundance to good reviews. As the GIFS show, the film definitely has Park's trademark sense of twisted forbidding.

The Landscaping Department of Urban and Rural Construction had this to say about the choice to paint the grass:

[…] colored nutrient fluid that contains trace amounts of fertilizer that can improve the grass's frost-resistance and appearance. Nutrition deficiency makes the grass turn yellow in winter and [if not treated] the grass can wither by summer. Using the greening agent is a kind of supplement for the grass's nutrition, and this greening agent poses no danger to plants, people, the soil, or the environment. From its use from 2008 to today, no problems have ever occurred.

Source: comicvine.com

The series is being called "Season 10", taking its cue from the successful run of Buffy the Vampire Slayer comics.

According to ComicVine, the first story arc catches readers up with Fox Mulder and Dana Scully. Living quiet, normal lives under new identities, the former agents are called upon by an old friend to discover who, or what, is preying on everyone who'd been involved in The X-Files.

The X-Files joins other cult classics that have made the transition to print form such as Buffy, Firefly, and Jericho, among others.
