chirp:

MUJI and LEGO teamed up to create a new series of toys, combining the legendary plastic blocks with paper cutouts through the use of a hole punch. if I ever have children, this is the only kind of toy I’d want them to have.

two of my favorite things have come together at last!

hard to describe but worth perusing

Luxirare is a weekly webzine dedicated to clothing and cuisine. At Luxirare, the typical notion of a seasonal fashion show or seasonal “menu” does not exist. Styles and recipes are presented as individual pieces that do not follow a strict theme but rather a flow of ideas. The Luxirare principle is to use the unique mobility of the internet to develop an enticing, unorthodox presentation.

new york times, “obama becomes japan’s english teacher”

The speech CD [“President Obama’s Inaugural Address”] and its accompanying book have been a resounding success, selling 200,000 copies since its release in January. A compilation of President Barack Obama’s speeches has done even better, selling half a million copies since November, solidifying his role as Japan’s English teacher.

Publishers have since flooded the market with over a dozen language-learning titles, including “Speech Training: Learning to Deliver English Speech, Obama Style”; “Learn English Grammar From Obama”; and “Yes, I Can With Obama: 40 Magical English Phrases From Presidential E-mails.”
