Freshly Pressed- Hunting the Light – Day 10 February 17, 2012We were woken up this morning by the tannoy announcement that we would soon be crossing the arctic circle again, so it was a quick shower followed by a quick rush on to the deck to see us leave the arctic behind. We look all around to try and see the arctic circle but of course [...]photolouis
- Everyone Meet Hugo … February 22, 2012Hugo is our beautiful little Scottish Fold kitten … After arriving in Dubai with his brother last week we went and picked him up from the Cattery last night and I negotiated a day working from home to be sure that he settled in ok … On a slightly side note we are also getting [...]minayamini
- Life, Death and a Dinner Table: A Family Tale of the Healing Power of Eating Together February 13, 2012I have a fairly large extended family. For the most part, our current clan originated in Wichita, Kansas, but through the power invested in marriages, divorces, job transfers and time, we have been strewn out across the country over the years. You’ll now find pushpins in our family map everywhere from the Florida Keys to [...]Amy T.
- No Comments from the Peanut Gallery! February 17, 2012How many times have you felt the impulse to leave a comment on an article or blog but then thought better of it and moved on?

- The need for seed February 15, 2012Blast those nincompoops who told us, as children, that gardening is as simple as dropping a seed in a hole and splashing it with water. Maybe that’s the case in the Northwest, but here in Texas it’s just not that simple…especially when you’re talking about seed starting. Heath’s been itching to start gardening from seeds [...]kelseynrobinson
- “So, what’s your, like, FAVORITE movie of all time?” February 23, 2012Guys. I hate this question. How am I supposed to answer something so broad, so ambiguous? There are so many wonderful movies out there that make my heart soar/sing/pitter-patter/explode/something. But I know this question will inevitably come up every time I say, “Oh yeah, I’m a big ‘film’ person.” Even, “Oh yeah, I like m […]Annoying Film Person

- [Resolution] #67 Take a Class February 10, 2012I love when things just fall into your lap. A couple of weeks ago a friend of mine decided she wanted to take self-defense classes and the general Facebook consensus was that you just couldn’t beat Krav Maga. It’s an Israeli self-defense system that’s boasted as being one of the most “battle-tested” and highly used [...]wakeupami
- European Downhill Trip: Part 2 February 20, 2012So we left off in the southwest of Switzerland. I arrived in Champery by a small train that went along the cliff side. It is amazing how scenic everything is in Switzerland. It is such a beautiful country. Champery is home to a World Cup track. I walked on some of it, and I have [...]Transient Mountain Biker

The models’ super high gloss red [...]Madeleine

- Impossible Photography Or Just Extremely Creative? February 23, 2012Advertise here with BSACombining different realities in photography has always been a fascination of mine. The techniques to master the skill are hard to obtain and quite time consuming. But for those who perfect this, it is one of the most creative art forms in the digital age. Ted Talks had artist Erik Johansson do a six minute discussion on his techniques […]
- Incredible Coffee Spill Portrait February 23, 2012Advertise here with BSAI am not much of a coffee drinker, I have to admit. However, when I drink coffee, I mostly drink a latte. Some people don’t even call it coffee since it has so much milk in it. But that doesn’t keep me from being impressed when someone tells me they have created something based on coffee. Well, maybe I am skipping too much […]

- Email Overload: Should You Really Send That Email? [Infographic] February 22, 2012Advertise here with BSAI have such a love hate relationship with email.
