Submitted to Contest #96

I truly believe that the greatest gift a friend can give… is their friendship. The story of how Vanessa and I crossed the line from Strangers to Friends is one that has changed both of our lives for the better. Over the past few months, I’ve asked friends to share one of their own “Stranger to Friend” stories with me so that I could post it on my site as a “Feature Friend Story”. To my surprise, on my 33rd Birthday, Vanessa sent me a story; the story of US. Below is her version… an incredible story of overcoming self doubt to accomplishing a...

If there's one thing the annual Specialty Coffee Association of America Event brings out—besides days of stimulating panels and conversations, and a host of innovations revealed on the show floor—it's the party animal in coffee people. Combine that with the pan-continental draw of the World Barista Championship and, well, heck—you've got yourself a party calendar that's spilling over like a poorly-closed AeroPress. But what's a photographer, coffee writer, and party reporter to do at the end of the day when there are...

The latter is democratic: it turns all participants into listeners and authoritatively subjects them to broadcast programs which are all exactly the same. No...

An eight-month-old is curious about everything, but he also has a very short attention span and will move rapidly from one activity to the next. Two to three minutes is the most he’ll spend with a single toy, and then he’ll turn to something new. By twelve months, he may be willing to sit for as long as fifteen minutes with a particularly interesting plaything, but most of the time he’ll still be a body in motion, and you shouldn’t expect him to be any different. Ironically, although toy stores are brimming with one expensive plaything after...
