I once sat beside a pond for more than an hour waiting for some people to arrive. They never came, but I did get to see the pond in a lot more detail than I ever thought I would. Carolyn, over at Roundtop Ruminations, has started a new temporary blog chronicling her ability to sit still in nature. She calls it her Sit Spot Journal. You, too, can join the Sit Spot Challenge, and I think most of the readers of this humble blog would appreciate the goals. I’m not sure why they chose the middle of winter to establish their challenge, but they’re the ones in charge, not .........
Sun, 02 Mar 2008 13:56:04 GMT - Black and white all over.
What's black and white and printed all over? Your new dress, that's what!! I am a huge, huge fan of black and white anything because you can play with fun colored accessories without looking like a bag of Skittles threw up on you. Awesome right? Both black and white are great neutrals and if you pair them together correctly you can make a pretty bold statement. Just a word of caution on prints, make sure they are proportionate to your body size. Don't wear a big print if you are small and don't wear a small print if you are big. That's easy to remember right? Go paint the .........

Thu, 24 Jan 2008 01:29:39 GMT - Waterless car wash in a bottle
The exterior of my car is rarely clean; I try to keep it just grime-free enough to fly under the radar of anyone who might be tempted to etch "wash me" on the door. I''m doing my part for the environment - a typical professional car wash uses 20 to 45 gallons of water, while a home car wash uses 80 to 140 gallons. .........

My parents gave me a goosedown comforter for Christmas. With that atop my layers of blankets, they assure me, I’ll never be awoken by the cold again. .........
Fri, 28 Dec 2007 14:25:20 GMT - Happy holidays!
The above image is from the best images of 2007 in Nature this week, and shows neurons expressing different (and seasonal!) fluorescent .........
Thu, 27 Dec 2007 16:04:15 GMT - Bringing a Date to Christmas Parties
It's the holiday season and there are plenty of different parties and functions that you are expected to attend. Do you bring a date or do you go solo (again)? If you've already gone on a few dates with someone that you met online, you can probably gauge whether or not they'd be an appropriate companion at some of this season's functions. But if you're going in blind, it might not be so .........
Sun, 16 Dec 2007 14:17:34 GMT - Did You Have A Thanksgiving Date?
Last week, we talked about those people who were planning to spend Thanksgiving alone as well as those people who were going to bring a date to their family Thanksgiving. We even offered up the idea of getting away for a weekend with a Thanksgiving date. But now the holiday is over. Your weekend is done and you've got to deal with a Monday that kicks off the next big push until Christmas week. So what better way to ease into the day than to wax nostalgic about your Thanksgiving .........

Via Google Trends, I today learned about the Liberty Dollar, which has been running an alternative currency in the United States and just got Google Trends for reasons .........
Tue, 11 Dec 2007 02:59:36 GMT - The Magic Flute
"The Magic Flute is Kenneth Branagh''s third release this year after As You Like It and Sleuth, completing his most prolific directorial run since the early 1990s," writes the Telegraph''s Tim Robey. "It may well be the best of the three, but dare we ask him to get back to acting now? Plonking Mozart''s phantasmagorical opera down in the trenches of the First World War is vintage Branagh - daring but .........
Tue, 04 Dec 2007 01:40:28 GMT - Solar
Solar is a beautiful short animated film by Ian Wharton and Edward Shires. A tale of the sun, the moon, and two characters who inhabit a planet that relies on day and night perhaps more than it would seem.

Tue, 04 Dec 2007 01:32:02 GMT - Nobody Home
This little scene is from our ridgetop campsite at Fallen Timbers. The bluebird house is an old timer that the kids made at one of the many, many nature workshops we took them to when we had some control over their little lives. I imagine someone like Hal of Ranch Ramblins cut a few dozen from a template, sanded the edges, pre-drilled all of the holes, then assumed a grandfatherly air as a roomful of little darlings started hammering on the pieces of wood, transforming them magically into birdhouses and instilling in themselves a lifelong sense of stewardship. I like to think that’s .........
Tue, 20 Nov 2007 01:44:30 GMT - Shorts and books
Having adeptly summarized a history of Cahiers du cinema by Emilie Bickerton back in February, Girish now turns his attention to Movie, whose run span roughly the same period in Britain, albeit in the shadow of Sight & .........
Tue, 20 Nov 2007 00:55:32 GMT - Tricoryne simplex
It is somehow heartening to know that it is always spring or summer somewhere in the world. Another thank you to David M. aka petrichor@Flickr of Sydney, Australia for sharing one of his photographs (original via BPotD Flickr Group Pool). Here''s another plug for David''s weblog as well, Kipili.com, with near-daily photographs of Australian .........
Wed, 07 Nov 2007 04:05:01 GMT - Biology and Art
I love reading bioephemera; Jessica always has interesting things to say about biology and art (and her bioephemera is amazing). I was impressed at the insight in her latest bioephemera. It taught me a thing or two about detachment and human nature. Don''t take my word for it, get over there and read it.
