It is unfortunate that in the stew of information that we are surrounded by, it has become increasingly difficult to strain the veggies from the broth, so to speak. Every day it seems like more and more people are being influenced by the craziness available on the Internets. Maybe a parent is in terror of GM food, maybe a friend is taking their child to a chiropractor for sinusitis. What do you say to your friends and relatives when they have embraced some crazy misconception or remedy? I discovered this excellent resource while trolling through the Skeptic’s Guide to the Universe podcast. It is a British foundation dedicated to promoting scientific education to the public.

This weekend, I ventured North to spend a short holiday visiting my good friend Miss Em. We had a delightful time, the centerpiece of which was viewing a performance of the 40th Annual International Taiko Drum Festival.

Taiko drumming is a magnificent ratio of drumming (2/3) and dance (1/3). I sincerely recommend you take a look. To truly capture the feeling of experiencing it in person though, you must imagine that every beat of every drum sends a vibration through your frame.

Lovecraft’s works are all online. Go, read, enjoy. I recommend starting with The Rats in The Walls. Please excuse the style of the site, it should not reflect on the writing.
