Solo outrigger paddler returning from a trip, Pier 63, Manhattan

:: Canadian clergyman makes a rowable dory out of newspapers (on Boing Boing).

:: Why "Moby-Dick" is still so resonant today, over 150 years after Melville wrote it. Podcasts featuring artists including musician Laurie Anderson and playwright Tony Kushner, from the "American Icons" series on Kurt Anderson's Studio 360.

:: For outrigger paddlers (and any other Polynesiaphiles out there): Amy points out a new blog by a college buddy.  Hawaiirama bills itself as "the ultimate real-time travel guide for the Hawaiian Islands."  Come January, you'll be glad it's there.

:: In a comment yesterday, Emile asked where my bike links have gone.  I took them down while I give the sidebars a rethink.  The links will be back, but most likely in another venue.
