Mirroring the world, a glance at a time. The Best of the Best. Monday, 29 April 2013. There are few things quite as alluring as a candle-lit dinner. especially if you happen to be out of gas and/or electricity, so you used the candles to actually cook said dinner. YouTube is full of videos about "cooking with candles". I have only seen one or two, but while the ingenuity of those men is by all means commendable, I had to wonder:. B) why don't they use a simple kitchen stove grate to cover the candles?

Mirroring the world, a glance at a time. The Best of the Best. Tuesday, 24 December 2013. You may have read this ancient letter. According to most sources, it would be exactly 500 years old today - written on Christmas, 1513. According to possibly the most authoritative source. Its age - or indeed its author - have been impossible to prove. Even so - and even if you have read it - perhaps it is time to reread and reread it. The time is always right for words that carry the beauty and solace of truth.

Mirroring the world, a glance at a time. The Best of the Best. Thursday, 27 December 2012. In case you have missed it, here is a very good column by Maureen Dowd, of the New York Times. Conveying the message of a friend of hers, a priest. It struck a chord with me, not because of its tone and intelligent compassion, but because of these words (all the highlights are mine, not the author's):. When my younger brother, Brian, died suddenly at 44 years old, I was asking “Why? Of such love in my life at the t...

Mirroring the world, a glance at a time. The Best of the Best. Monday, 3 November 2014. Yoko Ono vs. . WHO? Actually, it's "versus" (not really, since it seems to be a unilateral battle) Judy Murray, the mother of Andy Murray (the tennis player). Apparently, Ms. Murray is waging an unprovoked Twit(ter) war against the woman who is still considered by some (or many) to be responsible for the break-up of The Beatle. S (Which was in 1971. Forty-three years ago.). Here is a funny piece on it:. I don't even k...

The Itinerant Mirror: Does DIY cupping work?
http://the-itinerant-mirror.blogspot.com/2015/05/does-diy-cupping-work.html
Mirroring the world, a glance at a time. The Best of the Best. Saturday, 23 May 2015. Does DIY cupping work? In my experience so far - and I am surprised myself - YES, it does. I've been using silicon cups for exactly a week now. I purchased them to remedy my life-long sluggish lymph flow. That was it. Well, the lymph flow got worse - MUCH worse - before it got better (more on that on some other occasion). But I have noticed something unexpected: my cellulite. Seems to be disintegrating. Please note: I A...

Much of the media, even "serious" mainstream media, seem to be abuzz with a report - and a picture - of a bolt of lightning that allegedly hit the dome of St Peter's basilica in Rome yesterday - on the very day of Pope Benedict XVI's announcement of his forthcoming resignation on February 28th of this year. When the newly announced Pope Benedict XVI was led onto the balcony overlooking ...

Mirroring the world, a glance at a time. The Best of the Best. Friday, 18 November 2011. Guess who is hiding behind Greece's monetary failure? Guess Because that's what it is - only a guess. It is, however, informed by decades of reflexion on the vicissitudes of history. For their - and consequently our. Economic troubles, the Greeks have no one to blame but themselves. There is no need to go into detail at this point. True to their nature, Greeks are not the best of team players. Again, it is doubtful.
