Craigslist, you're my hero.

From The Wonder Years, 5 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

I am starting to get lucky with selling my stuff on Craigslist. I've already sold my TV and DVD player and I'm selling a bunch of odds and ends tomorrow. I think maybe I priced my stuff too low. Tomorrow this girl is getting 2 awesome square plates, 3 cute bowls, and 2 wine glasses for $12. Hmm, yes, I priced things too low. As long as I can sell my couch I will be a happy man.I can't believe that I am moving to Seattle in 3 weeks. It's a fresh start, a new beginning, and most importantly a new... Read more

Nature making art No. 5

From A View from Carmine Superiore, 5 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

In my world, it is often Nature, rather than Man, that makes the most beautiful art. The other day, it seemed to me that this bright-eyed mallard, a resident of Cannobio's Porto Nuovo, couldn't resist stirring up the colours of the water and the reflected boat that so closely mirror his own plumage.

Sverre and I watched The Butterfly Effect, and even if the story is weird it makes you think: What could have been'The first experience I had with "The Butterfly Effect" beyond "if a butterfly flaps its wings, blah blah blah," was in the military. The commander of the squadron I worked in walked by me on a smoke break and handed me a piece of paper. It contained mathematical notation for chaos theory, and he asked me, "What do you think'"I still have no idea what he was talking... Read more

Arusha ? A Tanzanian scientist who last year narrowly missed being appointed Unesco director general has said he would continue to pursue science diplomacy for the benefit of the world.

{Saigon Eats} MOF Japanese Sweets & Coffee

From A Girl in Asia, 5 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

For a gelato fix (read - not frozen yoghurt, most Saigonites sweet cold treat of choice these days) my favourite place in the city is MOF (Ministry of Food). The Japanese dessert cafe is home to a gorgeous fish motif covered wall, a delectable display of gelato and an intriguing menu of mostly matcha flavoured desserts. Matcha rears its head in the gelato counter too, and the deep green result is strong and bitter - a glass of Japanese green tea brought to life in icy form. The Japanese... Read more

A Hearty Thought

From Creative Structures, 5 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

Every year my niece Jessica sends out adorable, hand-made Valentines, in sort of a self-started tradition. This year, she made lovely heart pins, hand sewn with red felt and lavender thread. I love the way she attached the little safety pin in the back: I was out in the studio making a slew of tiles for a table top. The table will go into the new guest room and serve as a place for a computer, Read more

We got back yesterday from a family trip to New York and by some miracle we weren’t delayed at all on the journey, despite 50 centimetres of snow falling in New York on Friday and closing all the airports, and France suffering a very bad storm shortly after.
