Insurrection: My Prayer for Our Country

By Terry Cassel
in :  Politics

After a sick and sordid 50 year career of cheating, stealing and lying, corruptly conning banks, employees, associates, vendors, and ordinary people out of their money, ruining thousands of lives, running multiple businesses into bankruptcy, and so much more (sexual predation, incitements to mob violence, etc), mob boss wannabe Donald Trump, now buried under a mountain of lawsuits and pending criminal indictments, I believe, is certain to face trial and likely be convicted of serious crimes.

Laurie Morvan – This is Your Brain on Music

By T. E. Mattox
in :  Entertainment

They say one of the only activities that can activate and stimulate the use of the entire brain…is music. If that is indeed true; my nomination for their blues poster child is Laurie Morvan. I have my reasons. Whether you're a left-brain analytical and methodical person or a right-brain creative and artistic individual; everyone has their comfort zones. Not Laurie Morvan, she taps the intellect of both sides and she does it all the time.

Botero Knows Diddley

By Sarah Wyatt
in :  Travel USA

What I personally love about Botero is that he's Salvador Dali, Virginia O'Keefe, and Peter Rubens rolled into a playful package. Even better, he's still alive, and approves of this message. According to his granddaughter, who works at the museum, the 92-year-old Botero enjoys watching the technology demonstrating his work is a new way. He's a virtuoso who understands how to connect with audiences across generations, ethnicities, and continents. Botero knows Diddley.

Pitu Caleya – Asturian Chicken “Paella”

By Richard Frisbie
in :  World Travel

Since my visit to Asturias, Spain, last October, I’ve been dreaming about a rustic chicken dish I was served there. I was visiting for the natural paradise that is Asturias, with hiking, climbing, horseback riding, kayaking, even coal mining on my itinerary. But all that exercise led me to explore the fantastic kitchens of the region too.

Tea From Richmond to Shangri-la, British Columbia

By Gary Singh
in :  World Travel

I can only guess what’s happening. Since a majority of westerners roll in and order something like the stock Jasmine tea in a box—the generic uncreative stuff—maybe she assumes I’m a different kind of customer, that is, one who at least knows pu’erh, one who has a preference. As my wannabe Zappa-turned-Kerouac self sits there scribbling in my notebook and scarfing the pumpkin seed candy, there’s nothing for her, or me, to be confused about. By now, the pu’erh has elicited serenity of the utmost sort.

Iligan City, Philippines: The Easy Life

By Raoul Pascual
in :  World Travel

Almost everywhere you turn there is a carinderia (a small canteen). You find them in the mall in fast food chains like Jollibee, Inasal and Chow King that serve hamburgers, fried chicken and noodles. I didn't see much of McDonalds … I think the local competition is driving them out of town. You can also find food along the major and minor streets.

Disney’s Wish Comes True in Canaveral

By Sarah Wyatt
in :  Travel USA

Following weeks of expectation, Disney Cruise Line’s newest ship, the Wish, has finally arrived in Port Canaveral, Florida. Nearby, about two dozen local residents watched from the quay of Jetty Park. Several leatherback sea turtles and dolphins were seen romping in the cove as the ship approached. With Florida’s Patrick Space Force Base in the background, the ship was welcomed by Disney characters at a private ceremony shortly before daybreak on Monday.

A Taste of Adventure in Vietnam

By Ed Boitano
in :  World Travel

Our wooden vessel glided along Ha Long Bay’s jade green waters. Located off the coast of Northeastern Vietnam, its stunning 620 sq miles of seascape is one of the country’s five UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Hundreds of towering karsts dotted the horizon. Vendors in little skiffs tapped on the side of our vessel, selling unfamiliar exotic fruits – mangosteen, rambutan (aka Harry Cherry), longan, star and jack fruits.

ON CLOUD NINE FOR ANGLERS: Colorado’s Broadmoor Fishing Camp

By Anne Z. Cooke
in :  Travel USA

Casting for trout in the Tarryall River, at Broadmoor Fishing Camp, in Colorado, with a little help from an expert. JEFFERSON, Colorado – “If you don’t get a bite,” said Scott Tarrant, wading out into the Tarryall River, “remember the old timers’ advice. Foam is home. Follow the bubbles.” “Sounds like a beer drinker’s election slogan to me,” said Josh, …

Long Road to Dalipuga: From Los Angeles to a Little Village in Southern Philippines

By Raoul Pascual
in :  World Travel
Asleep in Singapore

I had to show my passport, proof of vaccination and a 2-day old negative Covid Test result. I was surprised that I needed a Philippine Health pass. My online research didn’t mention any need for that. Fortunately, I was directed to a website that allowed me to fill it up online.
