From Big Red Dot, 7 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
Ruins feature prominently in my fiction, and continue to do so even though I haven`t posted any short stories here for a long time. I`m currently working on a trilogy set in my fantasy universe of Jabbler`s Mons, about halfway through the second book and revising the first.

Those who watched Barcelona's game against Getafe most probably will have noticed two lessons being taught to the whole world about skill and team work. A team that spent most of the game playing with 10 players, after Pique walked off the pitch red carded, managed to stay in control of a match against a highly organized and aggressive team like Getafe. 2-1 was the final result and this is a lesson Barcelona taught to the whole footballing world.
On a more personal level, Lionel Messi...

As a child, growing up in Sardinia, my winter activities never involved skiing, or ice skating. It hardly ever snows in Sardinia in winter, so snow was a special occurrence and cause for celebration ? but then again, us Italians will use anything as a cause for celebration, ’cause we love good food, good wine and good company, and a combination of the three is just too good to pass up.

When I think of perfume, french perfume comes to mind. And I am now starting to understand why the French have a long tradition in the art of making perfumes (or at least I have my own hypothesis). According to Wikipedia, “Perfume is a mixture of fragrant essential oils and aroma compounds, fixatives, and solvents used to give the human body, animals, objects, and living spaces a pleasant scent.” And after living in France the last 5 months, I now understand the importance of having...

Adventures in Machine Washing

Above is a photo of my mother-in-law's Indian-style, semi-automatic washing machine back at their home in Ambala. We stayed at their home for 2 weeks over the Diwali holidays last year. Washing machines are expensive in India, so most households that have a washing machine use this style, which is cheaper. What is different about the semi-automatic, compared to the fully automatic machines in the U.S.?Well, first off, as you can see, there are two openings. The one on the left is to wash or...
