argan oil

http://www.jincywillett.com/journal/wp-content/uploads/goat_tree_argan_climbing_morocco.jpg

Berber women in south-west Morocco harvest Argan nuts from Iron Wood trees for both their medicinal and culinary use. Argan oil is reputed for its many benefits including treatment of heart disease and is particularly popular in France.
The fact that the nuts acquire a foul aroma in passing through the animal’s digestive tract makes it easy to tell this oil apart from food-grade produce with its rich, walnut oil-like flavor. Read the rest of ‘argan oil’ »

What’s the use of a title?  They don’t make it, the beautiful die in flame- suicide pills, rat poison, rope whatever…
they rip their arms off, throw themselves out of windows, they pull their eyes out of the sockets,
reject love , reject hate ,reject, reject. Read the rest of ‘it’s my life’ »

conch shells

http://i489.photobucket.com/albums/rr258/jbirdsong_bucket/shells/specialchoir2.jpg

Mario, my friend and OL cartoonist, has a new music project.  Special Choir is an ensemble of musicians who use an unusual instrument- the conch shell. This work of nature is the original trumpet, used since 10,000 B.C. The choir uses these instruments through the filter of all kinds of music- drum and bass, Brazilian rhythms, gospel, Indian raga, renaissance. But the discovery of the amazing physical sound of the conch shells (especially played together) has led this group to a simple, open, form of minimalism. It is an expression of the fascination and joy of making long, skull vibrating sounds. Read the rest of ‘conch shells’ »

delirium of drunk angels

“Maybe for detached observer my creative work may seem like some kind of delirium of drunk angels, but actually each work of art I create contains a relevation, which partly is hidden, but other it’s parts gets denuded before the viewer. It’s such a marginal twilight world which I fill with my metaphors, and then I build these images on them like on frameworks.” A. Berzinsh. Read the rest of ‘delirium of drunk angels’ »

Holi, the Festival of Colors

Hindu devotees and others enthusiastically drop their inhibitions, and chase each other in temples and through the streets, playfully splashing colorful paint, powder and water on each other. People also attend bonfires to commemorate the story of Prahlada, a Hindu figure and devout follower of Lord Vishnu who prevailed over his father and the demoness Holika with the power of his devotion.
