Rebranding Cities
Buildings are to cities as logos are to brands.  Buildings act as gateways to the culture and history of society in places large and small.  Their purposes over time range from pride and assertation (think the skyscraper race between the Empire State Building and Chrysler Building), to innovation (Eiffel Tower and the advancement of steel design), and to memorialization (the Taj Mahal is a tomb...

Gettin' Loud at Wimbledon →
Oh, the tennis grunt.  Originated by Monica Seles (AWW-EEE!), and taken to new decibels by the likes of Maria Sharapova (AAAAH!), Victoria Azarenka (OOOooo!), and Michelle Larcher de Brito (Strangled Cat!).  Is it power?  Is it terror?  Is it an orgasm?  When will it stop?!  While the women’s game is calm in finding a dominant player, it sure screams entertainment, err, annoyance.

In the Shadows re: The Rapture
All this The Rapture talk got me all excited because I was quite into this band back in 2004.  I saw people getting psyched about concerts and events, and I felt a camaraderie with so many of my friends.  I thought, “WE NEED TO HAVE A 2004 DANCE PARTY FEATURING “IN THE SHADOWS” BY THE RAPTURE!”  So, I got excited to post the video for this song, only to realize that I was...

Naan of Your Business! How to Offend an Indian
I sit here shaking trying to dispel the fears that have just come upon me after one of the most horrific experiences of my life.  It’s cold.  I feel lonely.  I hear sirens in the distance.  I’ve never been so offended in my life before.  It’s difficult to even formulate words to describe the atrocity I’ve witnessed, the horrible taste left in mouth, the complete disregard...
