It's said that every generation has its monster, and it's incredibly apparent that we are in the decade of the vampire. But how did we progress (or perhaps regress) from Nosferatu to Edward Cullen? What does it say about us as a society that we are embracing our monsters, pulling them close and accepting them as another breed of human? Tiffany Brown Ignite Phoenix #12 Views: 1 Trash: Normal

Having spent endless hours at the gym I have come to appreciate the liberation that the great outdoors provides. There is a surge of growing interest in this as a more natural exercise modality for its physical and psychological benefits, but there is an even greater, more profound reward in the intimate relation between man and his environment.

Zonies have a love-hate relationship with sun. We live here for the nice days then spend 6 months of the year avoiding sun and seeking AC. The ancient cliff dwellers used precise solar geometry to design thier apartments. All of our new architecture and landscaping can be precisely designed for summer shade, winter heat and natural light. Jack Anderson Ignite Phoenix #12 Views: 1 Trash: Normal

Coaxial, component, composite, S-Video, HDMI, VGA, DVI, FireWire, USB, and Thunderbolt. That jumble of wires under your desk or behind your TV is more than a network of signals, information, and power. It's a metaphor for creative problem solving, social interconnectedness, and the human brain itself. So let's talk, about the awesomeness of wires!

I wanted to talk about being a war orphan from Vietnam, adopted by a white southern baptist preacher and his wife in the mid-west. Growing up was like a bad version of Footloose and the Joy luck club. Adoption is one of those things that is amazing but so bitter sweet at the same time. You're left often time wondering "Who do you think you are??" Sherene McLemore Ignite Phoenix #12 Views: 1 Trash: Normal

Last fall, two acres of vacant land in Downtown Phoenix were transformed into a sea of sunflowers. This spring, we're doing it again. And on the side we happen to be pressing the sunflowers for oil and converting it to biodiesel with the Phoenix Union Bioscience High School, to support the solar/biofuel hybrid vehicle they're building.

She-Ra. Leia. Colonel Dearing. Buffy. My childhood and young adulthood were shaped by strong female characters that kicked butt and took names. No matter the situation, I had a role model for success. Where did they go? Girls today don't have the same kinds of characters to look up to. Or do they? Who are the new women with swords?

Baking w/ kids, Thanksgiving w/ Grandma, Sunday dinners, church BBQ. Since so many relationship experiences include food, here's my theory: Marrying for love is supreme; marrying with the common love of food is good insurance. You may not want to talk to someone, but you will eventually have to eat. Did I mention I'm marrying a chef in April 2012? Maisha Christian Ignite Phoenix #12 Views: 1 Trash: Normal

When my wine journey began, I asked every wine expert I knew how I could learn more. Beyond just reading, how could I really understand the stuff? A wise friend told me "Volunteer. Get your hands dirty at a winery." And so I did. Being a "wino" is more than uncorking a bottle. It's about digging in, and occasionally, making a giant fool of yourself Libbie Miller Ignite Phoenix #12 Views: 1 Trash: Normal

When people hear I enjoy Hospice nursing, they say "Oh my God, how can you do that, it's so depressing!" Actually, it is the complete opposite. People faced with their own mortality are usually the most insightful life teachers. Who better to absorb life's valuable lessons from than those who are facing the end of their own journey?

Birds are beautiful and fascinating. Birding is cool. I'd like to imbue the audience with my passion for birds, their place in the natural environment, and why that environment is worth preserving. Awareness brings interest. Interest creates love. Love leads to preservation. Get off the couch. Reconnect with nature. Help save the planet.

With the current growth trends around telecommuting a need for space to work at home has grown. Many companies have emerged over the last 5-7 years that offer backyard buildings used for work space. I'd like to share what I've learned about the look, practicality, and pricing of these backyard buildings that people are using for work space.
