Smithsonian's Science&Nature tab offers information about
North America’s Most Endangered Animals. It provides a list and quick information about a few species that are close to extinction. The melancholy pictures of the lonely animals sadden the viewer and help make people realize efforts can be made to help out the almost extinct species.
The Daily Shoe: Exactly how it sounds, T Magazine chooses a new, outrageous shoe daily. Yesterday it happened to be a curvy, colorful, extremely tall pump that seems impossible to walk in. Today T picked an exquisite Chanel shoe: a classic narrow pump with four straps around the ankle and to top it off it is in navy glitter.
Found Magazine: I stumbled upon this site from the Reader Links, and they simply collect anything they find, such as, love letters, notes to parents, lost and found signs, etc. "The Saddest Dad" note was found flying through a golf course. It appeared to be an apology written by a father's son for running away. However, it is sad because of the fact the father could have never found it or simple wanted to disown his son and gave it to the wind. The son refers to the father "whooping" him and how it didn't help in him feeling comfortable coming back home. This magazine is very interesting in the stories they find and add to their site.
I read this as well. I like the way you brought up the ambiguity involved in the lost note. I hadn't thought of the actual situation that encompassed the note. I think it will be really interesting to see how you respond to this.
ReplyDeleteI think the picture of the sad turtle really got me before even looking at the article about endangered species.
ReplyDeleteI hadn't seen that: shoe of the day! How funny. I could see a brief analysis of the shoe of the day to be equally amusing, and a fun exercise.
