2007-11-04 22:02 Sport - Automotive: Zen und die Kunst des Kalten Ansaugluft-=ISO-8859-1QDruckf=FChler=
By: David S. Brooks Von: David S. Brooks Today's automotive manufacturers are most definitely out of touch with your vehicle's spiritual needs. Heutige Automobilhersteller sind definitiv aus der Berührung mit Ihrem Fahrzeug die spirituellen Bedürfnisse. They purposely retard engine output to appeal to the less enlightened masses who may or may not care about their vehicle's performance. Sie absichtlich verzögern Motorleistung einen Appell an die weniger aufgeklärten Massen, die möglicherweise ni …

2007-10-16 00:04 Patience, Grasshopper
In Los Angeles last Thursday, Selina made a very important point that I want to re-emphasize here. She discussed, referencing her new book, the importance of persistence in a successful business...and this is something very difficult for many creatives. Waiting/sticking to the same thing over time is not often a creative virtue and long term planning is almost a curse to some. Unfortunately, in business the immediate win is a rare thing and, more importantly, often when it does happen, it then d …

Okay, so I didn't sign up, because I'm a total slacker, but today is something called Blog Action Day. Which is where if you read blogs, you are going to read all about how to save the world, er, I mean, the environment. And, because I'm a closet environmentalist, I'm totally on this bandwagon. Just don't tell Sarge. Oops. And we all know all the little choices that make a big difference - change your bulbs to CFL's, seal your windows and doors, hang your clothes to dry, turn out the lights, sle …

2007-10-15 00:47 New Thing #203: Bugland
Today's New Thing sounds small, but is actually quite a big deal to me: I pet a grasshopper. My somewhat irrational fear of bugs always prevented that in the past, and often presented itself in nightmares. (I have no idea why this is. That's what makes it irrational.) Grasshoppers are harmless and actually sort of adorable, but they are also sort of large, and strong enough to move faster than I expected. The one that landed at my feet outside Kevin's parents' front door was kind enough to let m …

OK. It's time to talk of many things: Of shoes and ships and sealing wax and cabbages and kings and why Diana is in such a distracted state and whether pigs have wings.... It's been a hell of a less-than-two-months, my dearest darlings. Some of you know some of this. Some of you know most of this but not all of it, as the last bit we just found out, so there's something for everyone. I needed time to see how things would sort out and get my head around all the life changing ramifications of What …

Is Wes Anderson a Genius "What Wes Anderson has done with The Darjeeling Limited is craft a masterpiece that eschews all the criticism for his previous work.. . The Darjeeling Limited is basically a collection of short stories with the same three recurring characters. The film is indeed episodic, but in a good way, with a narrative thru-line that helps carry the emotional baggage (pun intended) throughout the journey.. . it wouldn't surprise me if the film were made in the 70's. It didn't remind …

2007-10-11 06:39 L'Esquirol
It's Fall in Paris and squirrels/ L'Esquirol are EVERYWHERE. Even in the Metro! La Mere de Famile always keeps their windows in tune with the seasons. These cocoa powder-covered almonds are their Fall specialty. They have complimentary samples at the cash to tempt you when you pay for other items. Marie-Noelle translated this for me but I've forgotten of course. Something to the effect that the squirrel symbolizes economy and preparedness. My father used to remind me to follow their example.

2007-10-10 14:00 Amuse Bouche: Craving Kale
We can chow down on food fried in duck fat and foie gras for days on end, but eventually, even we will crave some healthy leafy greens. Our latest obsession Kale. This hearty relative of cabbage has a pleasant and distinct flavor and is delicious sauteed or in soup (such as the Portuguese delicacy caldo verde ). Below, four of the Hub's finest kale-based dishes. • Intrigue Cafe offers a pasta plate of cannelloni filled with kale and ricotta and topped with an oven-roasted tomato and basil …

I published my first post, œHello World . Testing 1 2 3 What a thrill and what a ride it s been! The year flew by and will continue to fly by at an alarming rate since I m over a half-century old now. Ughh. Honestly, blogging has probably been one of most enjoyable experiences for me.

The trees up here are changing already; we have leaves all over the yard. It seems too soon, but it did freeze once which would speed up the colour changing process and - as I realized a few days ago - today it's officially autumn. I'm not complaining, as I love Fall - it's pretty much my favourite season - but it still feels too soon. It seems like the year just started! ~The Trees at the end of our field. This is a woodvine that's changing colour just gorgeously. LEAVES! That one is my favouri …

It has recently come to my attention that I am surrounded by the absurd. Although I guess absurdity is actually a matter of perspective. Something I may think is totally ridiculous may be something perfectly mundane to you. Let me show you what I'm talking about....See this little guy He's what I got to stare at for about 2 days in a row. For some reason, this grasshopper attached himself to the screen on the window right behind the computer monitor. Every time I looked up, there he was. Through …

2007-09-20 01:15 Shawlette Started, Road Done
When my Knitpicks box arrived yesterday, I couldn't resist casting right on. The yarn, Andean Treasure, is my favorite Knitpicks yarn. The baby alpaca is a delight to touch, soft to wear, and the heathery colors are all so pretty. It's like an angora yarn without the excessive fuzz. Ever since I finished Grasshopper, I've been searching for another project that might work well in Andean Treasure. It doesn't have good stitch definition for the types of patterns that appeal to me and it's not hard …

You may think that you know me. You may be right, too. But, here is a short list of things you probably don't know about me. 1. I can catch a grasshopper with a pair of pliers and get him threaded on a fishing hook, all without actually touching the nasty buggers. Hint: keep a firm grip on the pliers and don't be squeamish if there is some spurt. 2. I make really decent enchiladas (no grasshoppers in these). 3. I make excellent cookies. 4. I am a fine embroiderer. 5. I am an excellent sketcher o …

Quillen Hamilton Shinn - "the grasshopper missionary" - got his reward a hundred years ago this Thursday. OK, that's not so great for Universalism's most conspicuous missionary, but if you think about it, the epithet is double-edged, too. (Think of the ant and the grasshopper.) I would have missed it entirely had it not been for this post by Steven Rowe at SC Universalist. Thank you. Read it there.

Jordan Ellenberg is a math professor at the University of Wisconsin and the author of The Grasshopper King, a novel. I recently asked him what he was reading. His reply: As the father of a two-year-old, I am partway through a lot of books. Only time will tell whether I am actually still reading them. But here are some of them: Super Flat Times, a great collection by Matthew Derby, set in a vaguely defined future, possibly in Korea, where people are only allowed to eat meat and spend a lot of tim …
