I'm not sure if you can get Epcot, but my friend just got LegoLand. He guessed California but it was the one in Denmark. Meanwhile, I'm rapidly becoming a connoisseur of unmarked dirt roads over flat, barren landscapes.

crookedindifference: First Solar Eclipse Photograph Berkowski...

by crookedindifference

First Solar Eclipse Photograph

Berkowski made the first solar eclipse photograph on July 28, 1851, also using the daguerrotype process, at the Royal Observatory in Königsberg, Prussia (now Kalinigrad in Russia). Berkowski, a local daguerrotypist whose first name was never published, observed at the Royal Observatory. A small 6-cm refracting telescope was attached to the 15.8-cm Fraunhofer heliometer and a 84-second exposure was taken shortly after the beginning of totality.

Helen, young

My mom died yesterday. Here’s her obituary.

I got to spend a lot of time with her over the past couple months, which was a tremendous gift.

Birds and Dinosaurs

Sure, T. rex is closer in height to Stegosaurus than a sparrow. But that doesn't tell you much; 'Dinosaur Comics' author Ryan North is closer in height to certain dinosaurs than to the average human.

Game Industry Gender Wage Gap Is Horrendous

by John Walker

As if there weren’t enough #reasonswhy, recent figures published by Game Developer Magazine have shown that women in the games industry are routinely paid significantly less than men. As spotted by The Border House blog, the numbers show that men are on average paid around 25% more than women for equivalent jobs.

Interior Design Ideas: 12 Concrete Interiors

by Marni Katz

Exposed brick is so ’90s. It’s all about raw, industrial finishes these days, from plywood to concrete.  We’ve rounded up a dozen interiors where concrete creates not just modern edge, but natural warmth.

Interior Design Ideas: 12 Concrete Interiors

Melbourne and Sydney, Australia-based firm Rob Mills Architects employed a monochromatic palette of concrete, honed basalt, and hand hewn timber on both the interior and exterior of this airy coastal abode. That’s some fireplace wall, with ample bench seating.

This is architect Amanda Yates’ own seaside home in New Zealand, as seen in Dwell.  This is, in fact, the living room of the home with the green oven that we featured last month. The sloping concrete wall seen here echoes the design of early Maori structures which were dug into the ground.

Solenne de La Fouchardiere, one of the principals of UK-based design firm Ochre, designed her own East London loft with plenty of concrete. The double trough-style sink is super spacious, and one could hang a hundred towels on the bar underneath the entire expanse.

This 7,000-square-foot home in Piedmont, Caliornia was originally built in 1974 for a concrete magnate! No surprise then that the workmanship of the concrete barrel vaults (look at that ceiling!), which were cast-in-place is extraordinary. In 2001, its new owners hired Ogrydziak Prillinger Architects to remodel it to suit family life.

This apartment building in Berlin, built by AFGH Architects, has an unfinished, but very cool interior, with concrete and plywood walls. Basic and raw, but definitely stylish.

See the chevron pattern of light on the concrete pillars in the entryway of this Vancouver home designed by Petkau Architects? They’re cast by water from the glass-bottomed swimming pool above. Seriously cool.

The polished concrete kitchen island with open shelving in this photo from French magazine Maison Cote du Sud, provides plenty of storage and workspace, and lends some edge to the somewhat rustic room.

The industrial modern kitchen is proving timeless, like this one in Santa Monica, California designed by Randy Weinstein. With its white subway tile paired with black grout, stainless steel finishes, vintage tractor seat stools, factory pendants, and a polished concrete floor, it’s the epitome of the aesthetic.

Concrete cubbies might not be your first choice for storing porcelain, but the chunky concrete shelving unit is gorgeous. The floor in the kitchen of this house in Sri Lanka, by architect Geoffrey Bawa, is polished concrete too.

This airy, light-filled dining space is grounded by the gray concrete floor, which contrasts nicely with the textured white ceiling.

The rough finish of the concrete island and oversize column are balanced by the smooth wood table with contemporary lines, and modern black chairs. The stainless/wood teapot adds a slightly Japanese flavor.

The wood-like effect and gray tone of these “Soleras” ceramic floor tiles by ABK work well with the contemporary concrete soaking tub in this no frills bathroom.

Venn Diagram of Irrational Nonsense

I don’t know that this works that great as a venn,  but I like having list of nonsense all in one place to remind me how much of it there is.
