Remain­dered links are stuff that I thought was inter­est­ing, but not post-wor­thy. Yes I stole it from Kot­tke, just like every­one else.

Members of Congress of Foodstamps

There many Con­gres­sion­al hear­ings and inves­tiga­tive trips that are expen­sive and/or point­less. How­ev­er, this one is nei­ther, in my opin­ion: four mem­bers of Con­gress have pledged to live for one week on $21 worth of food – the aver­age amount of food stamps peo­ple on that pro­gram have to spend. Liv­ing through what all too… Con­tin­ue read­ing Mem­bers of Con­gress of Foodstamps

Taking More Pictures Again

“Escape” by Jason Cole­man – I’ve recent­ly got­ten excit­ed (re-excit­ed?) about pho­tog­ra­phy and learn­ing how to take bet­ter pic­tures. Kevin has a great post and some inter­est­ing dis­cus­sion on his blog about his film vs. dig­i­tal exper­i­men­ta­tion. I think, for me, one of the key rea­son why I only want to shoot in dig­i­tal, regard­less… Con­tin­ue read­ing Tak­ing More Pic­tures Again

London Fog

You know that cliché old adage about some­one bring­ing the weath­er from where their from when they come for a vis­it? Well, the Queen of Eng­land, along with her hus­band Prince Philip, are in Rich­mond today to cel­e­brate the 400th Anniver­sary of the found­ing of Jamestown, VA. Yes­ter­day in Rich­mond was about 90° F and… Con­tin­ue read­ing Lon­don Fog

Peering Through A Haze

Sor­ry things have been kind of qui­et here for a few days. I am cur­rent­ly under a thick fog of anti­his­t­a­mines and decon­ges­tants as a result of Rich­mond’s annu­al Spring pollen onslaught (I nev­er had aller­gy prob­lems before mov­ing here, but this annu­al yel­low blan­ket of snow is just unbe­liev­able). I’ll get my head out… Con­tin­ue read­ing Peer­ing Through A Haze

Ethanol Health Risks

Angela for­ward­ed me a sim­i­lar arti­cle on some resent research which states that ethanol may have greater health risks than gaso­line as a auto fuel. From the arti­cle I tagged in del.icio.us from New Sci­en­tist (see low­er right, titled “Warn­ing: Bio­fu­el may harm your health”), it appears that the num­ber of deaths increas­es by 185… Con­tin­ue read­ing Ethanol Health Risks

On The Day After Kurt Vonneget Died

After read­ing the news of Kurt Von­negut’s death, I decid­ed it was about time I got with it. I’ve nev­er read any­thing by him over 1,000 words long but at lunch today I went and picked up a paper­back copy of Slaugh­­ter­­house-Five. Bet­ter late than nev­er, I sup­pose. I’ve had a lot of friends rec­om­mend… Con­tin­ue read­ing On The Day After Kurt Von­neget Died
