Rick's Ganguro Girl link on CH reminded me of one of the worst fashion nightmares of the 90's: the Japanese Yamamba, similar to raver chic but so much worse.

AdAge reports that the NYTimes.com will be introducing half-page web ads that look like this. They go on to state that these ads "can be used in conjunction with... NYTimes.com's Surround Sessions, which has a cost-per-thousand of $75."
A worthwhile read from Atlanta: ajc.com | Opinion | Bush's real goal in Iraq
This war, should it come, is intended to mark the official emergence of the United States as a full-fledged global empire, seizing sole responsibility and authority as planetary policeman. It would be the culmination of a plan 10 years or more in the making, carried out by those who believe the United States must seize the opportunity for global domination, even if it means becoming the "American imperialists" that our enemies always claimed we were.

A new issue of one of my favorite web magazines is out.
Whether we like it or not, fashion takes us places... It allows us to be our own tour guide, making stops and taking diversions through time, space, and culture wherever we see fit. Never before have people needed fashion to entice them with the fantasy of a grand escape more than now.
An e-mail from Dad... Attached is a Danger Hiptop article from the recent electronic engineering times FYI.
CNN.com reports that "Pioneer 10, the first spacecraft to venture out of the solar system, has fallen silent after traveling billions of miles from Earth on a mission that has lasted nearly 31 years, NASA said Tuesday.

BW Online | March 3, 2003 | Wireless Surprise Xing Inc., Japan's biggest supplier of ringtones, sold some $100 million worth of the little ditties last year.
It appears that March 8th, 9th and 10th will see me aboard the Southwest Chief line of Amtrak rail, traversing Chicago to Los Angeles. From the Amtrak website:
"Amtrak's Southwest Chief takes you through the heart of cowboy country. We'll take you across the mighty Mississippi and whisk you through eight states, past wheat fields, ranches, missions, pueblos, mountains and deserts. Zipping along through canyons that are sometimes only a few feet wider than the train or through the sun-drenched landscape, you'll feel the presence of the ancient tribes who found spiritual meaning in the rocky cliffs and canyons. You'll remember the Spanish conquistadors whose mission was to conquer the land and the people."

The job in periodicals has been a good way to catch up on newspapers. Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday it is my job to sort the incoming stacks. After a few weeks I've narrowed my desk pulls down to The Financial Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Times of India, and either The Register or The Times (UK), depending on how late they arrive. We get several French and Italian papers but I cannot manage to make it past their (words that sound/look like English words). Still, I prefer reading my news on-line.
