When it is hot outside I really feel a bit sorry for men and women who have to wear suits and blazers. Even the quick commute from car or subway to the office or a quick trip to lunch in a suit or jacket looks like a steam bath. I wrote a post a few weeks ago on how to make black suits look more summery, and today I am taking it a step further by suggesting short sleeve jackets. They're hard to ...

While I'm not a baker, I can make a mean cheesecake. Well, my version of a rather rustic 'organic' farm table like cheesecake. Certainly not the refined French cheesecake version. You know, total perfection. Absolute velvet creaminess, not one lump or air bubble. Regardless of the 'rogue' nature of this cheesecake, it is equally as delicious! And, this chocolate banana cheesecake bites are perfect for that late night sweet craving or just a bite of dessert to satisfy that sweet tooth.

Drugs, alcohol and music have been tied into each other since the dawn of time. I’m sure that neolithic composers were outcast from their families for drinking too much beer and ended up discovering music while out on a bender one night. Everyone can point to their favorite classical composers who also had substance abuse issues, and obviously the rock star lifestyle is one strongly associated with drugs and alcohol. The question then becomes – how should drugs and alcohol be impacting your independent band? Читать дальше...

Cara Delevingne/Rimmel London Get The Look from New York Premiere of Suicide Squad

We suffer from what might be considered a plague. A rash of incidents in which a child was forgotten in the back seat of a car and left to bake on a hot day.

A recent law proposal to deal with this has been under discussion, and after some initial support it looks like that probably isn't going to pass. The main opposition to the bill is that it is not right to move the responsibility of the children from the parents to the day care center and teachers. Also, it is not right to ...

A few days ago you might have seen me share a room tour of our brand new loft conversion bedroom and en-suite and today I am sharing a look around my little boy, Ethan's bedroom, which has a bit of a new look.

Ethan is now three and so we wanted to bring his room more up to date with his age and of course introduce more of the things he is in to at his current ...

Nungu  Sarbat Recipe – Super coolant with nannari flavor. Nungu also called as palm fruit or ice apple. It is good to have as it is.

So if we add nungu to anything, it blends to its taste. It has lots of Nutritional benefits.  It keeps the body cool and prevents indigestion. The potassium present in this fruit eliminate toxins from body. Читать дальше...

Quebec is the only fortified city of North America. Surrounded by strong walls, Quebec citizens could defend their French identity despite the English troops conquered the region and the town.

Plot: A motorcycle stunt rider turns to robbing banks as a way to provide for his lover and their newborn child, a decision that puts him on a collision course with an ambitious rookie cop navigating a department ruled by a corrupt detective.

Yesterday I wrote about skydiver Luke Aikins and his 25,000 foot jump without a parachute. At the time, I said that there had to be a YouTube video coming that would show the entire proceedings, and I was right. You can watch the entire spectacle in the clip below, which is as scary as you would expect, even knowing the outcome. It will also give you more respect for Aikins skills as a skydiver as he maneuvers into a relatively small net to arrest his fall. Amazing stuff all around.

How to Get A 72 Hour Kaliningrad Visa in Gdańsk, Poland

There are always a few tough beasts to crack in the visa world as we backpack it hardcore. Russia is a tough enough one to get, but luckily I have been there years ago (2007) so at least have experienced some of Russia and I will be back. I have written about

Nowadays, most houses are compact and therefore, require homeowners to use each and every corner of the available area judiciously. Creating storage solutions under the staircase can be an excellent way to meet that requirement. Not only would it provide some place to store various items, but also ensure that the staircase corner is not wasted. Given below are some ideas, have a look:

On the day my last diary column appeared, I went to dinner with Lorelei Rivers and a lovely and generous gentleman; he took us to one of my favorite restaurants in Seattle, Daniel’s Broiler.  The reason I like it so much is that, unlike many expensive restaurants (which, to riff on Boorstin’s observation about celebrities, are high-priced because their prices are high), Daniel’s strives to earn its reputation in all ways, including outstanding service.  And I have a new favorite cocktail, the beautiful, sweet & dangerous violet martini.

Yesterday, I was scrolling through Instagram, when I remembered to go through all my pending messages, as one does. (Why, oh why, Instagram, can’t you just let the spammers and real people DM me alike??) Anyway, I got a request from a follower for more details on a certain ring – though it wasn’t a DBRL or RLJ ring.

Delivering my cards to Oxfam bookshops is a dangerous process – shelves of delicious old antiquarian titles are always beckoning me. Keep away from the books Jane; keep away from the books!!
