They make beautiful and delicious food, but they are also very warm and lovely people. I asked them two years ago if they would like to make a cook book with me, and that is when our adventure together started.

The last time I saw Joe was several years ago at a beautiful right reef break in Costa Rica called Playa Negra. It was completely random, we were both on seperate trips and bumped into each other on a day of perfect surf. It seems like we've all had a perfect day of surf with Joey at some time or another. He must have riden a hole lot of good waves.

Steve Herin, a pot farmer in Pueblo, Colorado, who has won two Cannabis Cup prizes, can recall the first time he tasted good pot. As it happens, he says I sold it to him. This was more than 20 years ago in South Carolina, and though I don't recall selling him any, I know exactly what he is talking...

I went to my first Weight Watchers meeting tonight. It's not really my first meeting; I did the "at work" program about 1 1/2 years ago, but after losing 5 pounds in the first few weeks, I kind of gave up.

Wanda was 19 years old and in the U.S. studying mathematics and physics at university when her first symptoms of blind spots occurred. Wanda was born with diabetic retinopathy, and it slowly destroyed her eyesight until she was completely blind at age 29.

She and her husband had a successful business in Huntington Harbor, but relocated to the South Fork around a dozen years ago. They settled in Springs, although at the time most of Ms. Kostura’s clients were still up-island. “I used to joke that I never saw the Hamptons in daylight,” she said. “But that’s where my client base was.”

I started chatting with one of Mr. M's sons and he told another story to highlight what an amazing individual I had just encountered. "Dad had to go to the local hospital last week for an infection. The intake people asked him if he had ever been in the hospital before. He said, 'Well, in 1928 when I was five years old, I got my tonsils out.'" We all laughed and realized together what a unique man we have the privilege to know.

Though his story became the infamous stuff of legend, fodder for stage and screen, when researchers at the University of Michigan discovered the gene that causes NF1 in the late 1980s, scientists began to reconsider whether Merrick actually had something else. Gutmann, for one, is certain Merrick's affliction was a much rarer disease called Proteus syndrome. But the association stuck. As recently as eleven years ago, when Anna Gavrielson was diagnosed, a doctor told her parents she had Elephant Man's disease.

Two years ago Dunn came up with the idea of conducting sessions to teach parents how to bring physical therapy into their homes. ("I often hear from parents, 'If my child had a therapist for a parent, we could have therapy all day long, and it would make the kid better,'" she explains.) At the same time, she saw an opportunity to bring the kids together, perhaps encouraging them to broaden their horizons and build confidence.

Example 2: Hello, I am Trudy Winters, your ISN Pulmonary Guide from Timbuktu. I was diagnosed with Diffuse Scleroderma in 1998. I used to work as a secretary for a major insurance company, but I had to retire on disability a few years ago. I enjoy reading mystery novels and gardening. My children help with a lot of household and garden chores because my hands are also badly affected by scleroderma.
|
I wanted to tell you a little bit about how my children’s book actually came into “real life”. 2 years ago in November, I decided to start a blog. I battled with this for a couple of months because I knew that starting a blog would mean being very real with my struggles and emotions...

We just bought tickets to MAMMA MIA! for Saturday, September 3. I think we got good seats too--right in the middle of the main level. I only hit redial on the phone about 20 times. Can't wait to see it! I haven't been to a musical since I went with Mom and some friends to Hair, and when was that? More than 10 years ago for sure. I told Neil I wanted to go to Mamma Mia! in celebration of my 35th birthday and he agreed. Yay!

Firstly, It’s been an open secret for years that Spacey is gay. There was an unfortunate incident many years ago during his residency at the Old Vic theatre in London where he was the artistic director (2003-2015), when it was reported that he was attacked while walking his dog around 3am,in a park well known for night time gay cruising. Maybe he was researching a forthcoming role – Go figure.

3. An old blind guy just gently rapping this morning on “a beautiful day, good morning New York, etc.” threw in the line, “And hey! Mr. Madoff turned hisself in so we can all walk the streets without fear today.” I busted out laughing there in the subway, and tipped the guy. He tried to thank me, but I thanked him for the laugh, and the smile he gave me in response made me want to be this man’s friend.

And since moving to Austin in February of 2012 {4-1/2 years ago!}, home-cooked weekend breakfasts have become one of my most treasured times. I love waking up, moseying to the kitchen, whipping up something delicious, sitting down with a cup of coffee, and taking my time enjoying all I’ve prepared. Below are instructions on how to make one of my frequently made take-your-time breakfasts, avocado toast.

I tried this many years ago in bringing a group of like-minded individuals together to write about Twin Peaks. It worked for a time. I’d like to try it again now that we have a new generation of fans.

Up until just a couple years ago, I was still spending Christmas Eve at my parents’, who live a whopping 10 minutes away. Along with my spending the night, we still participated in all of our favorite Christmas traditions- reading our favorite Christmas books, leaving milk and cookies out for Santa, hanging the stockings, etc. (no, I’m not shitting you).

That experience has showed Curry more than just how to be a good manager: It’s given her a first-hand look at how health care has changed over the years. She recalls things, years ago, that were different – such as admitting patients to the hospital to run tests. “That was the common, totally acceptable thing to do,” she says. “So you came in for your checkup and your battery of tests and you might be in the hospital two or three days.”
|
Forty years ago tomorrow, Title IV tried to stop gender discrimination in public education when President Richard Nixon signed the bill. It’s had a rocky road throughout the years while some people try to get rid of it and others just try to circumvent it.
|
Yeah, I already had that idea 20 years ago but never got to it. Since no one ever seemed to made an attempt to try something like that makes me think it isn't a good idea after all :-) Back then I just solved it by getting an extra Black Box, however, I guess times haven't changed that much as I'll probably have another 2 soon but still want to try that R: thingy some day.

Leaning on the refrigerator was a dead girl, maybe fourteen, maybe fifteen years old. Inside the house, shoved behind a pile of wood, they found another corpse, this time a woman in her thirties. They took out the bodies, wrapped them in soiled bed sheets, laid them along what was left of the street beside the tumbled pieces of what used to be their neighbors.
|
Another result, Jenny Brown pointed out, is that wait times at the Ogden call center have risen from 10 – 15 minutes a few years ago to an hour or more today. “By the time they get the IRS on the phone, they’re frustrated, and they vent awhile, which takes up more time,” she said.

After her husband's death two years ago, Audra Hughes believes it's time to move to a new city. She needs space to start over with her seven-year-old son, Jack. Taking her son on a plane seemed easy enough, something he would enjoy, but instead something about the plane triggers anxiety in Jack.

" Whitney was so great to work with and I highly recommend her services to everyone. My wife and I had not bought or sold a home in over 19 years and Whitney walked us through the process like we were first time buyers just to make us feel comfortable. From the beginning to the end it was a great experience and will never use another Realtor. "

There’s something else, too. Women like this one always make you think of your own daughter Emily, 24, also blonde, also heartbreakingly pretty, with her sparkling green eyes and her diminutive button nose. Or at least she used to be, before the accident at Wiley Lake two years ago. Since then she has been in a persistent vegetative state—a phrase the doctors insist on wielding like jackhammers—confined to an adjustable bed in the makeshift hospital suite in your living room. The bookshelves, once full of family photos, are now stocked with boxes of latex gloves and sani-wipes and gauze pads and a city of ointments and salves for her bedsores. She can move her fingers and tilt her head a few degrees, but beyond that she is completely immobile, her young, lovely life frozen in limbo.

When I removed the old pine trim from the bottom section I discovered an area, way underneath, between the bricks and the cement foundation where water can get inside. I now knew how water, about 10 years ago, got inside the house during a really heavy rain storm where the water rose about 3 inches in the backyard.

“Ever since I began writing I hoped to be published in America, and once I started getting published it was recognition in America that I longed for” said Dyer. “Being shortlisted for an NBCC prize a few years ago was a huge thrill; to actually be awarded it this time is a great honor.”

I was there on 19 Nov. I had to wait a long to check in at hotel so take this opportunity to utilize my time. My 5 years old daughter enjoyed a lot. She love a lot! All the activity was interesting. Later on once...More

It’ll be interesting to see what they discover further about these strange markings. They remind me of some similar stone markings I saw a few years ago that date from a completely different time and place, found on the exterior wall of a very old church in Toledo, Spain. I took a picture, below.

Stanley Cochrane is 75 years old. He came to Britain for the first time last year, not as a tourist, but to discover who murdered his brother almost 50 years ago.
|
Several years ago I accompanied a friend to the bus depot. She had been away for three years and was leaving again for a long time. The moment of separation came, that last little space when an onrush of sadness suddenly wells up and causes a great inadequacy of expression. She turned and hugged me. Then she looked at me with tears in her eyes and painfully remarked: “We’ve said goodbye so many times. Do you think that we will ever learn how?”

We moved to Australia four and half years ago from that point my son was six months and we were looking for a local day care and living close by. We came in and did a visit and got a really good vibe from the place so we started bringing him here and we have not left.
|
Another thing I found in my drafts from 3 years ago. I can not remember where this was or if I already published it. Well most people would see this as in shambles, just like they only see me as a stroke victim. I no longer feel the need to punch people that say “oh I am so sorry”. Maybe the only reason is because it is not said as often. It might be that I now have found better uses of my time.

bought for a friend. My daughter did a biography on O'Connor and the friend read this book many years ago in college and enjoyed. O'Connor was good Southern lady from GA. Read More

Following his release, he moved to St. Louis and became a part of that city’s blues scene. But although, according to the Riverfront Times, he had quit heroin by this point, he was drinking heavily. A diabetic, two years ago, he found himself in the emergency room as a result of what he called “critical blood sugar.” It took three blood transfusions and insulin treatments and 30 hours before he was declared stable. It was suggested at the that his years of hard living had caught up with him.

I remember when, many years ago, the famous Italian author and philosopher Umberto Eco gave a lecture at the Casa Italiana Zerilli-Marimò - New York University (NYU) regarding the history of language and data collection. He eloquently laid out the seemingly simple and natural path of media evolution: from the keeping of information through oral tradition to stories, messages and laws being carved into stone, or engraved in wood; followed by the invention of paper, the advent of printing press, movable types, typewriters, automated linotyping, computers, magnetic media and lastly, optical media and a World Wide Web containing such information similes in ever increasing volumes.

Before Keith Richards’ bad habits took over for a time in the mid-’70s, his work ethic was quite high. Stories abound of the long, if somewhat off-schedule, hours he spent working on this classic album in the basement of his home in France. Hanging together as much because of great songwriting (“Rocks Off,” “Soul Survivor”) as its fabled grungy atmosphere, Exile caps the Stones’ great 1968-’72 run with a force that belies their supposed spiritual tiredness. What some of these songs are about is anybody’s guess–Keith claims “Ventilator Blues” was inspired by a grate, while the song plays like an ode to a pistol–but that’s just part of this album’s hazy game. –Rickey Wright

About 2 years ago I realized the toll that working retail was taking on me. Without noticing I had become much more bitter, suspicious, negative, negative and negative. Oh, did I mention negative? I didn’t like going anywhere except home after work and made it my mission in life to avoid other retail stores at all costs. If you have worked retail you understand me, if not, go to Amazon and buy “Retail Hell” by Freeman Hall and it will provide perspective.

‘Are you all right, Will?’ asked his brother. ‘Yes, yes,’ replied the other man distractedly. ‘Just trying to find out what went wrong with the confounded thing this time! All was well when, of a sudden, we started turning this way and that and then straight down it went!’

Condolence: John and I worked together for many years at Traver Road school. I liked to come to work early each day and John was always there to brighten my morning and help me through each day. We spoke each day of our Upbringing in New York City. I send my condolences to you for a kind lovely man. I’m so sorry for his loss.

Dennis Curtin, who has written a number of well known photography textbooks, moved to digital publications a few years ago. His books are chocked full of great information and images. His new photography book The Wonders of Photography features a page devoted to my work.

Today was pretty busy. Besides going to a psychiatrist, I went to the eye doctor for my dad to reschedule his appointment, I watched SOLO (which was a good movie and I don’t understand why it got such bad reviews), took ricky to work, went out to eat with my dad, then went straight home to organize my room a bit.

And try and get your work life sorted for the sake of your future. You don’t want to look back and wish you had changed jobs years ago. Therefore, ensure you work hard in a job that you enjoy!

But anyway, that stuff on the radio — it’s actually Portsmouth’s gift to the world of music, digging like a maniac into the enamel of your teeth. Craig David, recently reinvented (as being slightly more boring than he was originally) and back with a new album: The Time Is Now. No, Craig, a more appropriate title would be The Time Was About Seven Years Ago And Even Then It Was Dull As Fuck.

A few years ago, when I started to toy with an editorial project based on a work of street photography containing also short stories, my creative mind was still clinging to the past, to those times when one's could hope that a Publishing House editor with his competence and passion toward his job was able to appreciate the potentiality of a project, measuring it by its cultural value, its originality and beauty, and not just and only appreciating the level of notoriety of the people involved.

Years ago I read another collection of Triptree stories (Ten Thousand Light-Years From Home) and I don’t remember much about them except that her characters skittered away from me any time I made a move in their direction. As I generally read for character, this did not make me a Tiptree fan.… >> Read more

I don't have a coffee table, but even if I did I'm not sure I would be inclined to keep a certain book out to impress people. However, years ago I did get a large hardcover copy for cheap of The Paris Review Book: of Heartbreak, Madness, Sex, Love, Betrayal, Outsiders, Intoxication, War, Whimsy, Horrors, God, Death, Dinner, Baseball, Travels, the Art of Writing, and Everything Else in the World Since 1953 thinking it would be kind of neat to have. I mean, the title alone is pretty impressive, no?

Busy Monsters by William Giraldi. I first read it in manuscript three years ago. Turned to my wife. Said, "Jesus. This guy is on fire." The prose is totally electric. I also read most of Mr. Bridge the other day. I was looking for a particular episode and I just got sucked right into the sadness and the beauty.

Create a Drop Everything and Read Time on your comfy living room couch or on a blanket under a shade tree. Set the kitchen-stove timer for 30 minutes as your child settles down with a quality book recommended by their teacher or public library. Reward them afterwards with positive feedback and anything else you deem appropriate – perhaps a frozen treat - before they head outside again to play.

Hello. I work at a Natural History Museum in Roseburg Oregon, and we took over the care of an adult common snapping turtle that was found in one of our local rivers about two years ago. Snapping turtles are not native to our region, and therefore cannot be released back into the wild. Our turtle Gamara weighs about 26 lbs. And is being housed indoors in a rather small enclosure which is cleaned regularly, good filtration, regular diet of whole fish-chicken liver-commercial pellets. He has had some trouble with respiratory infections and has recently been treated with antibiotic injections.

Here are the facts, Whole Foods began work on its sustainability plan two years ago and did in fact consult environmental groups about their efforts. Greenpeace was not one of those groups. Greenpeaces flawed report, which has been met with a chorus of crickets, came out last month.

A few years ago during shooting for an episode of the Angela Lansbury television series "Murder, She Wrote" a large truck stopped nearby and noisily dumped a load of manure. Concerned about disruption to their expensive on-location shooting, the film crew asked if the work could be delayed, recalled Don Gallagher, a permit inspector with Ventura County's Transportation Department. No problem, said the foreman. "He wanted $1,000 for every truck," Gallagher said, "and he had 40 trucks."

This is very similar to a Node.js package I created a few years ago. I noticed it was getting an surge of installs recently, most likely because Tumblr decided to ban adult content. That package doesn't work anymore though, so I rewrote it in Rust. If you were trying to use that package, sorry.

Two pieces have appeared recently by fellow writer-mothers that led me to put these thoughts together about this summer before I return to full-time teaching. Last week, I read Caitlin O’Neil’s lovely and inspirational essay about writing as the ultimate staycation. And then, a few days ago, Mary Vensel White wrote this astute essay based on Susan Sontag’s claim “if you want to go beyond something that is simply good or promising to the real fulfillment and risk-taking of a big body of work, you have to stay home.”

I really dont understand how this company only has 2 stars. I always get Cavalier and use them at least 2 times a week for various things as I cant drive and often wake up late for work. Their drivers are friendly and are almost always here within 10 minutes of booking. Ive only ever had 1 real issue with cavalier since I started using them 3 years ago and the operators sorted my issue out almost immediately. Overall, a brilliant service

They did take an awful long time trying to find the guy though. They had a blood trail and everything but Mista was taking it slow because they had no idea what the guy’s Stand might be. I guess that does beat going in alone and possibly getting killed. Mista did leave Giorno in the dust even at his slow pace.

Augustus answered, "I am almost two thousand years old. I work for the Golden Empire Research and Development department. Rome. Staying with her for the rest of our lives. My parents died long ago... and the last answer is a bit tricky."

Years ago a friend of mine gave me a book that changed everything about the way I saw relationships and love.

Growing basil, how to pick basil leaves, how to use basil. It’s all right here, folks. Years ago an old farmer told my young boys that when they started dating, a big bunch of sweet basil in the car would win a girl’s heart. Now, I don’t know about that, but growing and harvesting basil is one of my favorite summer garden activities. The fragrance definitely makes me happy!

Their aim was to complete a missing link in our evolutionary story. Although we know there was a huge proliferation of fish species present by around 420 million years ago, fossil records from before this time are hard to find. These gaps have made it difficult to build a convincing picture of early diversification.

Since his debut in 2006 (only 19 years old) with the album These Streets, Nutini showed his talent all around combining the heritage of soul and folk music , with the most personal and fresh attitude.

I only do targets in my back garden, I really need to join a club, and there are quite a few near were I live, but I never get the time,always something else to do, And I would love to go hunting again, I used to hunt a lot with a shotgun ( ducks, geese and rabbits ) before I got married, but that's years ago, I just find shooting paper targets very relaxing,

This picture was taken just inside of the Excalibur Casino in Las Vegas in 2010. My daughter Christy and I decided to go away for a couple days rest and some well needed bonding time. We were on our way to a dinner show when these two hunks came along and talked us into getting our pictures taken with them. We had so much fun, I never laughed so hard, that my belly hurt, I must have turned a thousand shades of red, but it is a memory I will remember for a very long long time to come.

So after a long hiatus I'm coming back! I had to sell off my colonies a couple years ago unfortunately but now I'm going to start fresh and go with a 4 tank system. I'll be using 40 gallon tanks this time but can't decide whether or not I should go with glass or acrylic. I've always used acrylic and have been concerned about glass leaking and/or breaking. What do you use and why?

This past Sunday, I was eating cereal when a piece of my front tooth came out. 23 years ago, it had been chipped and bonded after I had an up-close and personal interview with a sidewalk. I was so upset, and after complaining to my girlfriend about it I suddenly remembered what you are going through right now. I felt ashamed and silly for letting such a comparatively trivial thing upset me.

Was my windpipe crushed? It hurt like a sonofabitch. Was that a fastball? A fastball with a softball intended for grade school kids? I was having trouble breathing. Was I injured, or just hyperventilating? It was about 35 years ago so I don’t remember what Mr Goldsmith said to me, but the essence of it was, “Man up. Get back in there and catch.”

Slavery -- of various forms -- is the way Democrats control Massachusetts. They pretend to be champions of "social justice," and many in the grassroots are sincere in their motives if misguided in their methods. But for the Democrat power-brokers (including Charlie Baker, who sold out to them years ago) it's all about funneling federal tax revenue into state coffers, where it can be used to build and maintain a massive army of unionized public employees who become permanent socialist voters. The key to the whole system is enslaving people to government dependency which some embrace willingly as a way to avoid working for a living, while many others want to break free but are deliberately kept down.

Where do I start....any recommendations? Of course it would make more sense for me to 'start' finishing other projects left to loose ends, like the bookcases and trim I'm painting (paint drying =reading time), or the two full size quilts that need a bit of work, or the 2 small sewing projects, or removing the greens from the windowsill and the list goes on. Then after reading Joanne's blog this morning I realized I should give my geraniums some attention too. And dust MY lampshades. And go for a 3 mile walk. But January is a very long month followed by an even longer February, so it's good to have things to keep my mind off how far away spring is. Very good to be so busy.

“After traveling the state and country to tell Berte’s story, it’s really interesting to bring the show back to where the story takes place,” Johnson said. “The last performance was two or three years ago, so this time will be different. Over time, the audience has changed, I’ve changed and my relationship with Berte has changed in very subtle ways.”

i patched some spots on the ceiling where the fans used to be. our ceiling is textured so i mixed good ole Pensacola beach sand (i have a 5 gallon bucket that i brought back some years ago) in with our dry wall primer paint. so i get to have a little bit of home in this house.
|
I left the house a little late due to some catch-up work for this blog, but I figured I'd have plenty of time before the show began. Imagine my surprise when I got to the Red Room and found that the opener had already started. What is this world coming to? Anyway, I saw a respectable enough 30-plus people there when I arrived.

Another man, Donald Barnes, went outside for his first physical training class on his 10th day in the Chicago Police training academy. It was a hot summer morning exactly 15 years ago. The 30-year-old trainee made it just five blocks into the three-mile jog. He collapsed around 11 a.m. on July 16, 1997. An ambulance rushed Barnes to a hospital, where he was diagnosed with heat stroke and placed in intensive care due to kidney and liver failure.

While not a perfect comparison, almost 20 years ago, it took two weeks before the New York Times went to print without a story on the Columbine High School massacre on page one.

Not quite right. This song was written over 200 years ago by the very famous Swedish poet and troubadour Carl Michael Bellman. Several artists have done their versions of it, but I have never heard a great rock version. And since I really like the tune it felt like a nice challenge to come up with a very personal interpretation of this old classic.

"My mother told me, 36 years ago, ‘Hang on. They'll find a cure.’ I was suffering alone until I came to MMHC. And today... oh so grateful... beyond any words, so grateful. Lives and sufferings have been redeemed here, and today we celebrate and honor, all of us, in this place, for better or for worse. Today, we flourish. The list of what we cannot do grows shorter and shorter. We become comfortable in a world of three dimensions; we gladly surrender the fourth, fifth, and sixth."

If you’re shopping for someone who has everything this holiday, a subscription box might be your answer to a fun and unique gift. This trend caught on a few years ago and has stuck around largely because people love the ability to try new products without making a big purchase commitment. Plus, getting a package every month is a little like celebrating the holidays all year long. Give a gift that keeps on giving with one of these eight subscription gifts for some of the hard-to-shop-for people on your list.

I am reminded that I still need to get hold of Balthazar by Lawrence Durrell so I can read the full Alexandria Quartet, rather than 3/4 of it. I’ve been trying to find it in the same lovely old Faber edition that I have the others in. I also notice a few books from my degree course here, which I should probably have read about eight years ago. Oops.

Today (Veteran's Day) is my PawPaw's birthday...it would have been his 99th to be exact. He passed away 20 years ago when I was 7 years old. He was nine years older than my Grannie who turned 90 this year, though you wouldn't even think she was 75!

"I've been a collector most of my life, but got serious about it about 30 years ago," says Punk. "When we moved to South Dakota, there was so much history here that it really fueled my interest in preserving it and getting involved with activities that were part of that."

The last time the moon got as close to Earth as it did on November 14th was more than 68 years ago way back in 1948, so naturally people had high expectations as their attentions turned towards the night sky.

Does anyone know if a tall dark haired Brazilian girl named Carla still work here? She use to dance there two years ago or so..

We're pretty excited about Wallows, an L.A. band newly signed to Atlantic Records. You may know singer Dylan Minette from the popular Netflix series 13 Reasons Why, but his power pop trio with Braeden LeMasters and Cole Preston has been playing for ten years now...pretty impressive for a 21-year-old! Billboard calls their sound "breezy West Coast power-pop with a sharper rock edge, like if The Strokes’ Julian Casablancas camped out on the beach with Weezer for a few weeks." Their new EP, Spring, was recently sprung on us, and we have a signed pink/green swirly vinyl copy of it to give away free to one lucky winner! Enter to win by e-mailing us with the subject line "Spring" and please include first & last name with entry. Winner must be able to pick up prize at our store in West Seattle within one month of notification. Good luck!

Matt Sewell's follow-up to the mega-hit Dinosaurs is a beautifully-illustrated large format look at the amazing beasts that time forgot - from the relatively well known, such as the sabre-toothed tiger and woolly mammoth, to the obscure monsters that walked the earth millions of years ago. New findings are being made every year, and research is showing us exactly how these beasts looked and how they lived.

Let’s look at how the relationship between these two pieces unfolds, starting with “Sold”. Cards on the table: I’m in love with this poem and have carried it in my head since first reading it several years ago. I’ve long been interested in the dynamic of how a house becomes a home and vice versa, a process which Henry captures exquisitely as his family prepares to move. He ends with questions:

A Mum who, due to UK immigration law, gave birth (at 7 months) without her partner by her side. She is effectively a single parent and intended to take a longer maternity leave, but returned to work full-time when the baby was 6 months old in order to collect enough payslips to prove she meets the financial requirement for her child’s father’s settlement visa application, which they will put in later this year.

One of my favorite places to stop is Tha Maharaj, an ‘old city’ street market near the river with vendors selling fresh fruit and a mix of unexpected items—amulets, Chinese herbs, old-school Thai comic books, even false teeth—displayed as they would have been 100 years ago. Along the street you’ll see tiny, family-run ‘restaurants’ with peeling paint on the walls, wonky seats and Grandma’s ceramic bowls. These make a great pit stop for a lunch of duck noodle soup.

Two years ago, I created Chronicle, a tool for graphing the usage of words and phrases in New York Times reporting. Inspired by my own love of language and history, it’s a fascinating way to see historical events, political shifts, cultural trends or stylistic tropes. Chronicle can reveal things like the rise of feminism, evolution of cultural bêtes noires or when we shifted from talking about the “greenhouse effect” to talking about “climate change”.

-Prevent. If you are over 25, I would strongly advise that you start with your anti-aging regimen. I started around 24 and this is probably one of the best decisions that I ever took regarding my skin. I started using about two and half years ago Skinceuticals Phlorentin and it is handsdown the best skincare product I have ever came accross. It is pricey but worth a every last drop and you actually need very little product. You should also eye care. I use and love Skinceutical's AOX + Eye gel.

Exactly two years ago, I came back home from work to a relatively empty house (my two GSDs and cat were glad to see that at least one of the humans hadn’t abandoned them, which they assumed was the case every time someone left the building). My parents were meeting with our family doctor to figure out what was behind the pains in my dad’s abdominal area. I was a carefree 22 year-old, and the only real issue in my…

Great post Charlie. I wish I would have read this post before I started my first business online three years ago. It would have saved me lots of time and money. Thanks for sharing your insights.

Tim Yeo personifies the guilt ridden cringe wing of the upper middle classes who believe in moral relativism rather than taking a stand on the traditional Christian bedrock of what is right and what is wrong. People like him are frightened to support views they think will alienate the "people". Hence his hostility to Ann Widdecombe's anti-drug campaign a few years ago.

I consider it as a privilege to have known and worked for Pat at PwC. Nine years ago this day we were looking forward to seeing him in Los Angeles. But fate took him away from us.

A friend shared this recipe with me a few years ago and I don't know why but every year around Halloween I think about making them. Maybe it's because they are the right color for the season or maybe it's because I love those orange striped Hershey Kisses that look so perfect sitting atop these melt-in-your mouth babies. But I was getting ready to make some and I thought “Why am I not sharing this with my stamping peeps?”

Anyways, I went out on my own to wander the fiesta. There were tons of natives, all dressed in traditional outfits (not even going to try to explain. Pictures will be 100 times better. I should mention, because Bolivian internet is slower than me making a move, no photos will be uploaded untill I probably get home), dancing all around the city. Music was playing everywhere (sadly, the same song for 3 straight days), everyone was drinking and just having a good time. After a couple of hours of ambling I sit down on a bench in the main square with 2 other Bolivians (where a boyfriend and girlfriend that are my age were also sitting) to continue my book (About a Boy). Quickly, a 40 year old man comes by and forces himself between us.

Day Five - Wilted Away Tonight as I was tidying up the apartment I decided to throw away the white and pink baby roses that were bought for me on New Years Eve. Even though the roses were wilted and dry they still gave off the scent of fresh roses but I suppose it was time seeing as how the water had evaporated from the vase a good three days ago. And even though my dining room table now looks bare I'm sure sooner or later I'll be able to replace these beautiful roses.
