The door is about to close on 2015 and 2016 is about to grace us with its presence. <a href="http://1851franchise.com/" target="_blank">1851 Franchise</a> staffers are in the holiday spirit and have shared some links about New Year&#8217;s Eve. But don&#8217;t worry; we still have other entertaining links to go along with the holiday themed ones.</div><div style="  font-style: normal; font-variant: normal;  line-height: normal;">&nbsp;</div><div style="  font-style: normal; font-variant: normal;  line-height: normal;">Now that Instagram and even Facebook allow us to think we are the Ansel Adams, that doesn&#8217;t mean we still can&#8217;t learn a little about taking photographs. Mashable offered a few tips on how to <a href="http://mashable.com/2015/12/26/7-photo-resolutions-for-2016/?utm_cid=hp-hh-pri&utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=weekly-web-roundup-3208#63ne3tgXLgqV" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">take some better pictures</a> in the New Year. &#8211; Matt Diaz</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>As the calendar rolls over into January we are always looking for ways to improve ourselves.

The tabs for these holiday extravaganzas can run pretty expensive, but you should expect that from a Michelin-starred restaurant or fancy club, but would you consider that for Olive Garden? The Olive Garden in Times Square may think highly of itself as it is <a href="http://nypost.com/2015/12/27/chain-restaurants-charge-up-to-800-a-seat-on-new-years-eve/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=weekly-web-roundup-3208" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">charging customers $400</a> to ringing in the New Year at the restaurant. &#8211; Ahmad Yilmaz</span></div><div id="pastingspan1"><span style=""><br /></span></div><div id="pastingspan1"><span style="">Sometimes a movie&#8217;s soundtrack will outlive the cultural footprint of the movie it was released with.
