Atheists meet Obama
From Want to be a free thinker but a , 6 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
WASHINGTON ? President Barack Obama has burnished his Christian credentials, courted Jewish support and preached outreach toward Muslims. On Friday, his administration will host a group that fits none of the above: America's nonbelievers. The president isn't expected to make an appearance at the meeting with the Secular Coalition for America or to unveil any new policy as a result of it.Instead, several administration officials will sit down quietly for a morning meeting at the Eisenhower...

Printemps de Bourges
From Berry Deep France, 6 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
More than just a bit pissed off with my newspaper. Sent them a nice 750 worder on our local rock festival. They reduced it to 100 words, gave it a different bylien and didn't use any photos. Sounds like an in-house reporter got a chance to slaughter it. So here it on the blog for you.
From the 13th to the 18th of April, Bourges in the Cher welcomes the world for its annual music festival ? the Printemps de Bourges. Now in its 34th year, the Printemps rock festival is an unmissable musical...

This is one of the best meals you will have on the Navigli. With all the options to choose from along the canal, at some point, make a reservation at Al Pont de Ferr. The food is fresh and delicious. The ambiance is not fancy, but fancy rustic. Homey but nice.They have an unusual and inventive menu, and steer away from traditional, but the food is fantastic. Have the chef menu if you really want to see what the cooks offer.The staff is friendly and you will enjoy your night for sure!! Note: The...

motivation to blog
From 50% of my DNA, 6 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
Even though I have turned into a primitive species of homo sapien, doing nothing but sleeping and a little eating while nurturing life within, I have found motivation to blog.First of all, I am awake beyond my 3-year-old's bedtime. This is a unique situation in itself that I wasn't awakened by Baby Bird insisting that I "sing 4 songs not 3" and "why was I sleeping in his room'" But what better reason to blog than pure unadulterated...anger?In order to solve our "being in another country while...

In the wake of today's news that a magnitude 8.8 earthquake hit Chile, I found this image, published on Feb. 25th in The New York Times, even more interesting than the first time I analyzed it. Many of you may know that I am slightly obsessed with earthquakes and earthquake preparedness, especially now that we live in a seismic zone here in Casa Cali.In the map above (created before the disastrous quake that hit Haiti last month), you can see the cities predicted to suffer major damage in an...

Rain, Rain ? Go Away!
From Borborigmus in Bali, 6 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
By some incredible quirk of marketing by vacation industry mandarins, the ‘high season’ for visitors to Bali has been mandated to co-incide with the rainy season. Everyone knows that, but they still pay inflated prices for everything during a time when they are sure to be regularly saturated. High season in Bali is hot, humid – and can be very, very wet.
When it does rain, it is usually a deluge. The gutters, which double as defacto rubbish bins – invariably flood....

Now, I haven't personally been there, but enough of my friends have - and rave about it - for me to recommend the Cadeg Flower Market.
