When I was a child in a little kid's world * My heart was the same as the one I have now * But it amazes me how much everything else has changed... Kate Miller-Heidke

Where Sadness Comes From
Don't go back to say it came from way/ back when. It did, it did, but now./ When you said did just now did you feel/
a little dip, a curtsey in/ the middle of the word, almost another syllable but/ not quite? We like to say a word,/ a single word can make us feel. There, there it is again, this time/ a falling down at the end of feel./ You feel it, how that little sound/
goes dropping down and hangs alone./ I'm here to tell you I come from
a place where hanging used to happen:/ it happened in the trees, by God,/ it happens even now in air,/
the air the mouth lets loose; I hear/ a hanging all the time. It leaves a sadness in the voice; we speak,/ and wait for history to catch up/ with us. It's slow, but then, that lets/ you hear it coming; you hear it now/ before you speak, that sadness in/ your voice, the part of you that wants/ to last, to hang or dip, to hold/ the word for just a little more--/ my people, this is an elegy/ to you, the sadness in your voice.

The Museum of Modern Fiction

"Once upon a time, somewhere in the year 2979, there lived a little boy who loved 'stories'. But 'stories' were scarce in those times. Children grew up with no bedtime stories. Love stories were dying `cos no one believed in them anymore. Myths, fables and folklores were unheard of.

The little boy grew up with a dream, of a land where people share good stories with other people. He travelled to the ends of the world but 'stories' were few and far between. The young man decided to hitch a ride back to the past, to a time where tales were in abundance.

He travelled a thousand years back to start collecting short stories, fictions to pass down to future generations. Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to The Museum of Modern Fiction"

"I don't even know if there are any good friends that could describe, stylistically what I do. I've never heard anyone describe, what I do, umm, very well. but (cough) it...my aim is not...I don't...it's just so hard stylistically to kind of classify what I do. I just don't think there is any...sometimes it's round, sometimes it's less round... sometimes it's colors. The point is with my design, with what I do, whether it's design or whether it's art, because I do everything from designing airplane interiors,which is like on one level really pure engineering (ok theres a bit of design there, but it's mostly engineering). On the other end of the spectrum, I'm designing sculptures,things like the lockheed lounge, there's a whole lot of limited edition pieces that I designed that are being sold at auctions, and things like that...now that's my fantasy, that's my pure...emotion just running wild."

Evolution: 24 myths and misconceptions

If you think you understand it, you don't know nearly enough about it.

It will soon be 200 years since the birth of Charles Darwin and 150 years since the publication of On the Origin of Species, arguably the most important book ever written...

And yet despite an ever-growing mountain of evidence, most people around the world are not taught the truth about evolution, if they are taught about it at all. Even in the UK, the birthplace of Darwin with an educated and increasingly secular population, one recent poll suggests less than half the population accepts evolution....

Most of us are happy to admit that we do not understand, say, the string theory in physics, yet we are all convinced we understand evolution. In fact, as biologists are discovering, its consequences can be stranger than we ever imagined. Evolution must be the best-known yet worst-understood of all scientific theories. So here is New Scientist's guide to some of the most common myths and misconceptions about evolution...New Scientist 16 APR 2008

Oh, threats of Hell and Hopes of Paradise!
One thing at least is certain--This Life flies;
One thing is certain and the rest is Lies;
The Flower that once has blown for ever dies.
