It's strange how we see a real-life situation and relate them back to movies we have previously watched - Hollywood tends to have that effect on us. This time, I saw a series of photographs and The Day After Tomorrow somehow sprung to mind. These are no ordinary statues. They were found on Lake Natron in northern Tanzania where temperatures can rise to 60 °C. The extremely high soda and . . .
Beards are Back
It's back again. The 2013 National Beard and Moustache Championships. Just in case I've piqued your interest, there are 18 different categories you can fit into - from the delicate Dali moustache to the anything-goes full beard freestyle (more details here). A sneak peak of the categories: And now to what you're waiting for, the pictures… Brilliant! via Laughing Squid . . .
Mid-week Madness
Well, happy hump day! . . .
Simplicity

I then look at the young child with an iPad in one hand and a Coke in another and is crying for more, and it makes me start to wonder when we all began to stop valuing the smaller, simpler things in life.

Titled 'love letters', 19 posters were created by Geddess and his fellow graphic designer, illustrator and tattoo artist friends. Together, . . .
Playing with Air
Perhaps you have not heard of Kristian Schuller. I came across some of his photographs the other day, and you might want to keep your eye out for this one. Born in Romania, Kristian Schuller took an interest in clothing design and photography from a young age. Vivienne Westwood took him under her wing and became his teacher and mentor while he studied fashion design. She even took Schuller to . . .
Quarter of a Century
As I listen to 'Close to You' by The Carpenters on the way to work, it really hits me that I've reached a quarter of a century. The big day was last week, and despite the splattering of cosmopolitans on its eve...the birthday weekend was comprised of a quiet weekend away from the city. (Note: Shanghai is a city of 23 million, Suzhou's population of 10.5 million is quiet in perspective.) Gone are . . .
