Asylum
a mini series from the British Broadcasting company (BBC)
It takes a genius writer with a twisted world view point to create a show such as "Asylum" on the British Broadcast corporation. It was a 3 episode mini series and it is about asylum seekers and how they take asylum in a government building somewhere in London. Who would have thought that you could find humor in such a sensitive subject but the writers have been able to do it with success. It was a drama and a comedy with an audience and a laugh track. Asylum is one of those shows that leave you not knowing where you stand.

Keeping up Appearances
One saturday night i was watching PBS for their British comedy show block that they used to air and I discovered a great sitcom called "Keeping Up Appearances" that I grew to love and any time I saw it was on I never missed the chance to watch it. The plot is simple Hyacinth wants to be high society and goes on ridiculous hijinks and shinanigans to finally be a member of high society and drives all those crazy with her plans and schemes. The show had lasted for many seasons then went off of the air and then had been brought back for a revival in the mid 90's.

Seattle Nightlife Report: Pony
Mid-winter Friday night. Early but already so dark. The days are getting longer but 6 PM is still pitch black. “Firepit!” You declare things after just a few seconds of solemn thought – not a request or suggestion, not a demand. Last week you walked around saying, “Hot tub?” to anyone who would listen. Or one afternoon you pointed at two men holding hands as they crossed 12th Avenue, looked me in the eyes and said, “Boyfriends.”

Away from the Crowds in Vermont
The Burlington Earth Clock is a contemporary compass, calendar, and clock that looks like a prehistoric stone circle on the shores of Lake Champlain. If someone stands in the middle and assumes the role of gnomon—the component of a sundial that casts a shadow—the shadow cast upon the ground will tell the time. With specific stones orientated in the four primary cardinal directions, the entire circle serves as a compass. Circles for Peace, a grassroots nonprofit, produced this stone circle. By aligning with the cycles and rhythms of nature, the composition seeks to assist in discovering inner peace.

The Lesions of Devotion
Every day I set myself down on the freshly cut lawn and strip myself bare. I take my guitar and finger the frets and pick at the strings, listening for dissonance. My life is dissonance. I twist the tuning pegs until each string sounds bright. Then I kneel, calves pointing behind me, kneecaps facing forward. All exposed to the breeze. I close my eyes and play the melody.
