Vienna has always held a special fascination for the Japanese, who celebrate the New Year with Strauss waltzes and lieder as much as they do with mochi (rice cakes) and otoshidama (New Year gift money). A prime influence in this regard is the 1931 German movie "Der Kongress Tanzt" (Congress Dances), a lush musical that for the Japanese has defined Viennese culture to this day. The movie was...

The challenge for TGIF this week is to make an ATC, and the theme is Alice in Wonderland. I have a very old edition of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass , with illustrations by John Tenniel, the original artist; the image I used on my ATC is a copy. I wish the red glitter showed up more, but it's there, nonetheless! The story of Alice has always held a special magic for...

If you hadn't already twigged, this time last week I was in Edinburgh to celebrate my Other Half's birthday and our 10th anniversary. We had a brilliant time, helped in part by a rather unexpected hotel upgrade (three nights in a five-star hotel is wonderful; it's even better when they swap your double room for a swanky suite) and gorgeous summer-like weather on the Saturday. However, come Sunday,...

On the occasion of Veterans Day 2009, I pay honor to those who’ve served and/or paid the ultimate price in service to their country by publishing a series of war stories that holds a special value in my heart, because they were written by my father, Ted.

MADISON, Wis. (Reuters) - A year after his historic election, President Barack Obama sought to remind Americans on Wednesday the biggest problems he is grappling with -- from the economy to the war in Afghanistan -- are the legacy of his predecessor, George W. Bush. With his approval ratings down from once-lofty levels and Tuesday's Democratic election losses raising questions about his political clout,...

Michael Jordan's son, Marcus, plays basketball for local school the University of Central Florida. That alone tells you Marcus did not inherit his father's skills, as UCF is a perennial "hopeful" in most sports.
