Not too long ago I posted about the device above – a cool looking glass bulb which supposedly uses light to scare away flights.

I’m back from the road with thousands of specimens, a little weary and ready to sit still for a bit. In all it was a wonderful trip – but I have lots and lots of processing to do.

Chris Grinter, on February 21st, 2010%

I love Ming Tsai and his cooking empire as much as the next 3-am TV viewer. Tiesą sakant,, his recipes are fantastic and you should make them yourself.
