Tumblr's recent announcement that it's going to outlaw pornography, nudity and 'female presenting nipples' leaves me very conflicted. For a start, It doesn't take the biggest cynic in the world to see the potential relationship between their removal from the ...
Unpacking the winter wardrobe unpacks some lovely memories and some clothing-related surprises.
Early Saturday mornings aren't for lie-ins any more. They're for a gentle waking up, spread over many cups of coffee and luxuriating in the silence.
Don't get me wrong. I absolutely adore the sunshine and heat. But right now, London is a hot, sticky and smelly mess. And so are most of its residents. Yesterday. I managed to shelter from the hellish heat in my ...
Good old Silvio, always ready with a well-placed quip. After discussing the subject of people trafficking with the Albanian prime minister, Berlusconi thought it appropriate to add a little humour: Mr Berlusconi, 73, said an accord between Italy and Albania had successfully clamped down on the trafficking of illegal immigrants across the Adriatic Sea by ...

"The Diary of Anne Frank", the harrowing journal of a young Jewish girl's experiences in Holland under the Nazis, has been banned in Culpepper County public schools in Virginia... all because of the young girl's references to her own body. We're not talking steamy sex scenes or even anything approaching smut. As the Progressive Puppy ...
Apple's announcement of their latest product category - the iPad - left me rather excited. As pointed out in a previous post, I was hoping they would come up with a tablet device that would act as a mega-PDA, mirroring the functionality of the now defunct Newton.
