My super talented and big hearted brother, David Scharfenberg, the news editor at the Providence Phoenix, went to New Orleans to report on the BP Spills effect on the food chain; from the oyster man to the chef and all the people in between. Read his story.
This loaf of bread found was in the ruins of Pompeii. I was obsessed with volcanoes (tsunamis, quicksand and killer bees) as a little kid. It shook me to the core, the notion that, poof and it is over. It was scarier than Hiroshima. That was a man-made atrocity. A person could be reasoned with, right? Right? But this was nature!

The Retire Ronald site is live. Join Corporate Accountability International in sending this clown out to pasture. We’re proud to be a part of this project with our sister company Hairpin Communications. Big shout out to: Burt Glass for his expert wrangling and thoughtful leadership, Andrew Campbell for his development chops and Anna Engle for keeping the train on the tracks. We’d also like to thank Brandon Bolt for his fine illustrations.
Why couldn’t-uh I had this milk in my school cafeteria? Fine Australian design from the 1980s via Re:collection.
Happy Thanksgiving to one and all. We wish you time to savor, whatever your meal and whomever it is with.
It’s hard to say what makes us thrill to these vintage matchbooks (picked up on vacation in Wellfleet a couple of weeks ago.) I think we’d like to be hanging out with the owners of the Rusty & Loretta Steak House, in the VIP booth, soaking up camembert and port wine, whiskey sours, steaks, center-cut chops, clams casino, and on special evenings, foie-gras steak on brandied waffle toast. Will you join us, or do you simply need a light?
There’s so much to feel good about at Tavolo. Fantastic grub from Chris Douglass of Ashmont Grill and Icarus fame. And way cool atmosphere that we are proud to have taken a part in creating. We worked with Nichole Carroll from Carroll Design Studio and our own Kiki Ikura, who did the amazing illustrated walls.
And if you are not afraid to mess your dopamine levels, you should try some of chef Max’s meatballs … life will never be the same.
Work by one of the Hamilton brothers.
