The best way to get to all this is through our ind… Continue

Casey Cora Finding local bloggers?

So, I've been asked to find local bloggers in our coverage area for a possible ongoing print feature. I thought that would be relatively easy, but I'm having a crazy hard time. That could be for a number of reasons, but I'm beginning to believe that no one's blogging local affairs in our patch on a regular basis. Why? Most reporters here say their beats aren't being touched by anyone else. Ditto for other general local affairs. (Which is great for leverage in our news coverage, but that's a wh… Continue

A.D.Miles In the Shadow of the Empire.

Nostos – Homecoming. It’s a literary troupe familiar to those who have studied classical Greek literature. To those who are not, it’s the root word of nostalgia. I’m traveling back home for Christmas by bus, and when I look out the window at the familiar scenes I have known since childhood, bleached white by the low winters sun, I feel a cramp in my stomach that I cannot fully blame on travel sickness. An hour of bumpy travel, inducing a sickness that will not leave me for the rest of the day,… Continue

A.D.Miles In praise of...the spork.

Of all inventions, the spork has to be thought of as one of the most endearing inventions of the past fifty years. It’s design is a hymn to the utilitarian needs of the common man. According to the New York Times Hyde W.Ballard filed an application to register spork as a trademark for a combination of spoon and fork made of stainless steel, although there is no longer any record of this application at the United States Patent and Trademark Office. Sporks are used primarily in fast food restaur… Continue

Amir Kurtovic The best way to record a phone conversation

If you are like me you have often had a hard time trying to record a phone conversation. Sometimes you might be in a noisy environment and you can’t put the person on the speaker phone, or other times you might get the call on a phone with no speaker phone at all. After looking around for a while, I think I have found the easiest and most reliable way to record a phone conversation.
