A Beach Holiday In The French Capital, Paris? Strange, But True… - (USA)
Topics: paris, holiday Anyone who knows their French geography can tell you that the idea of a beach in Paris is nothing short of crazy. Crazy perhaps, but not impossible. In fact, for the sixth year in a row during 20th July and 19th August, the idea actually becomes a reality, as Paris celebrates the summer festival ‘Paris Plages’. In 2002, the mayor of Paris, Bertrand Delanoe gave his support to a project designed to bring the seaside a little closer to Parisians that couldn’t afford a be

From a Distance - (USA)
You don't know the half of it, partner. Italy is a lovely place, full of more or less kind people who are willing to forgive monolingual Americans their spastic attempts at communicating through six or seven Italian words, idiotic smiles and kabuki-sized arm gestures of questionable meaning. But all this kindness can't make up for an irreducible lack in Europe: There is no baseball. I know, there's no baseball back home right now either. But it's different. It started with the absence of

le Tour PSA - (USA)
I have mixed feelings.On the one hand, I have seen a lot of disappointing behaviour in the Tour de France riders of late - the doping, the getting caught, the repeated doping, etc.I know also that as disappointing as this behaviour is, it's not exclusive to the cycling domain. It exists in Baseball, in Track, in all our favourite sports.I believe it may happen in most competitive sports. Except maybe Curling. Or Petanque. Does that make it OK? Absolutely not.Should we strive to achieve integrit

Multicultural Post Graduate Institution in Thailand - (USA)
Multicultural Post Graduate Institution in Thailand July 29, 2008 – 9:04 pm We used to live at the Asian Institute of Technology (AIT) prior to our move to Finland. It is a beautiful green campus with all the facilities you want to enjoy. This campus has lots of green trees that I don’t know how old coz they easily break when a strong wind or storm hits the institute grounds. Most faculty members, staff, and students live in housing units provided inside the campus. And since I was a staff of

A Taste of Holland - (USA)
You may recall a pre-trip post in which I listed some of the grocery items that family members ask us to bring over from the States. I would like to add a couple of items to that list. During our 4th of July dinner consisting of hotdogs, chips and potato salad, several relatives residing in Belgium cited the following as tastes they love that are impossible to find in Europe: Pickle relish (regular dill, the kind you’d spoon onto a hotdog) Yellow American-style mustard So while we took tas

An Introduction to Bowling - (USA)
Of all the indoor sports, perhaps bowling is the most popular. Surprisingly since the game may be one of the oldest, if not the oldest sport in history. Undeniably, too, bowling is the number one participatory sport in the US. Bowling is a game of scoring points by knocking down pins with balls. Fundamentally, a player rolls a heavy bowling ball into a flat surface to knock down arranged pins of nine or ten, depending on the game you play. There are several forms of bowling; some are played in

TeamSnap: 'the simplest, easiest way to manage your team or group online' (review) - (USA)
Review of: TeamSnap - The simplest, easiest way to manage your team or group online. *** I have no team spirit. While the other kids were at the big football team, I was smoking behind the gym. But as you know: because I've been blogging since 2000, and involved in e-commerce, too, I sometimes get asked to review other people's websites. So I got asked to review TeamSnap, I almost said no. Then I went over to the site and saw... "cheese rolling" and "yodelling clowns"?
