    “When we develop patience, we find that we develop a reserve of calm and tranquility. We tend to be less antagonistic and more pleasant to associate with. This creates a positive atmosphere around us and it is easy for others to relate to us. Better grounded emotionally through patience, we become stronger mentally and spiritually, and tend to be healthier physically.”

    - His Holiness the Dalai Lama

    This is very much true, I used to very impatient. Over the years I slowly trained myself to let it go, to breath, stay calm which added my own sanity in often the insane world we all live nowadays. Being patient has changed me… like many other Buddhist teachings I was lucky to receive from my Buddhist teacher.  Thank you, I am full of gratitude for it today.

    I do not say this often, but when I saw that I said to myself: “Jealous!”

    Architect David Hertz is building Francie Rehwald the home of her dreams: an eco-friendly house on 55 acres in the remote hills of Malibu, California.

    Called the Wing House, the structure is being built using a commercial Boeing 747-200. We first reported the plans for the house back in 2005. But the structure requires FAA approval as to not be mistaken for a crash site.

    Boeing 747's are enormous pieces of modern transportation. Measuring 230 feet in length and 63 feet tall, the aircraft has over 17,000 cubic feet of cargo room. That's a lot of house! Which is why the “house”– using almost all of the 395,000 pound plane–is spread over seven different structures.

    Motion Blur photography is awesome, often difficult to do it, but the results are amazing… below are some fantastic examples. Makes you want to grab your camera and run with it outside!

    The world seems to pass us by at a million miles a minute. All we want to do is to stop and catch our breath, to try and freeze time and enjoy the present moment. Motion blur photography tries to captures this idea of movement through time. The most interesting photos that use this technique keep the subject in focus while blurring out the rest of the scene. This is achieved by using a slow shutter speed and by panning the camera to track those moving objects. This effect can also created by post-editing software such as Photoshop.

    Ah, thank you the internets for this and many other cool online drawing tools:

    Flame is an experimental online drawing tool that you can use to make stuff like this…

    Or this dragon, probably a better representative example. Fun to play around with for a few minutes. (thx, sue)
