From the mind of Craig Kanarick. var _gaq = _gaq || []; _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-5533766-5']); _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']); (function() { var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true; ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ?

This chart is an easy way to understand the depressing decline of fruit and vegetable varieties available to us.

THE RAVE-UPS sing Positively Lost Me from PRETTY IN PINK, the best song not on the original soundtrack.

[T]he American romance with making actual things is going through a resurgence. In recent years, a nationwide movement of do-it-yourself aficionados has embraced the self-made object. Within this group is a quixotic band of soldering, laser-cutting, software-programming types who, defying all economic logic, contend that they can reverse America’s manufacturing slump. America will make things again, they say, because Americans will make things — not just in factories but also in their own homes, and not because it’s artisanal or faddish but because it’s easier, better for the environment and more fun.

The Kitchen-Table Industrialists – excellent NYT primer on the maker movement. Mentions American Maker, the fascinating 1961 short film of a manifesto for hands-on creativity. (via curiositycounts)
