The city that never sleeps

Last night in Soho, NYC. Hungry around midnight, we were looking for a quick bite to eat.

The streets are crowded and the lines in front of clubs, as always, annoyingly long and populated with people who remind me why my weekends in NYC are strictly reserved for private outings.

We stop at Cafe Gitane right before midnight. We are turned away because "they are closing in a few seconds." We go around the corner to Cafe Havana - also closing. Hm…how about Mexican Radio for some chips and guacamole? That’s right…also closed. Continue reading »

Opus Vladete Jerotića

U potrazi za zanimljivim štivom srpske kulture pronašao sam ovaj
autobiografski tekst Vladete Jerotića, neuropsihijatra i književnika.
Jerotić piše o ranoj mladosti, perodu Drugog svetskog rata i Božijoj zaštiti
koja je uticala na njegov daljnji put. Ova životna priča može da bude jako zanimljiva mojoj generaciji (70-tih) koja nije imala prilke da na pravi način spozna to vreme i ljude koji su ga obeležili. Continue reading »

Srpska slova u elektronskoj komunikaciji

Ako je rezonovati po onome što viđam u e-mail-u i browser-u poslednjih nekoliko godina, većina korisnika srpskog govornog područja u svakodnevnoj komunikaciji ne koriste sva slova abecede.

Ne korišćenje Č,Ć,Š,Đ,Ž slova za krajnji rezultat ima stvaranje pogrešne navike, šteti kulturnom nasledju i ograničava pristup informacijama u elektronskoj formi. Continue reading »

ko radi ne boji se gladi, ali nema vremena da jede

Dva odlična teksta na ABCNews i 37signals koji podržavaju teoriju da je koncept odmora na kontinentu Severne Amerike plasiran extremno nisko na listi prioriteta.

Harlem United

U potrazi za stanom u Barceloni, našla tekstove o starom i novom kraju.

Welcome to Harlem

"There are two types of buyers in Harlem", says Charles H. Greenthal’s Anita Carter. "The small developer who buys low and sells high, and the young couple who can’t afford downtown." The new residents are strikingly diverse: straight and gay, black and white, Asian and European. Read more. Continue reading »
