Fridgy:
Fridgy is a prototype piece from Israeli design Yonatan Sadowsky which aims to “break the ‘refrigeratorness’ of the common refrigerator,” most obviously by making use of a polyester fabric for its shell. Fridgy, which uses a Peltier-like cooling mechanism, is covered in a non-absorbent fabric, and can even be folded up when not in use. It’s like having a sleep over for your soda, except at the end everyone dies.

Ethiopian Distance Learning:
Andrew Heavens has a short but interesting blip on his blog ‘Meskel Square’ about this Ethiopian classroom’s distance learning set-up, consisting of a satellite dish picking up Digital Video Broadcasts (DVB) from Addis Ababa that then outputs to a generously-sized Samsung plasma screen television. The schools next step is to get online using a satellite connection—cool stuff.

riverfronttimes.com | Eat More Beaver | 2005-01-05: “For 69-year-old Lorraine Wells and her husband, Joe, barbecued coon is the only way to go. The Wellses soak the creature in a mixture of vinegar, water and salt overnight, and then parboil the carcass with seasoned salt, garlic and pepper. When the meat is tender, Joe tosses the carcass on the grill and smokes the meat for a few hours. They insist raccoon tastes better than roast beef.”

this traditions seems to me, to be more real than most.
