What the psychedelic drug ayahuasca showed me about my life.

When I finally puked on the fourth night, I felt an odd sense of pride.

Inside the loud, stuffy ceremony room, people were laughing, crying, chanting, gyrating, and, yes, vomiting, around me. When my time finally comes, I think: Just aim for the bucket and keep your ass above your head like the shaman told you.

I try to wipe my face but can’t grab the tissue paper because it melts every time I reach for it. Nearby, a man starts to scream. Читать дальше...

BOSTON (AP) — A new study says the Boston Symphony Orchestra is making an increasingly noteworthy impact on the state economy.

@ Museo del Aire, Madrid, Spain

May 2014

This was my first trip to Spain and the Museo del Aire. This excellent facility has six exhibition galleries and over 150 aircraft on display. There are two Ju 52 aircraft on display, both postwar license-built by the Spanish firm CASA from 1945-1952.  106 were produced in Spain of the over 4,800 built in total.  The aircraft’s unusual corrugated duralumin metal skin, pioneered by Junkers, strengthened the whole structure.  This museum is...
