International encounters

 At Splice Today, I recall some experiences with foreign languages and cultures.

Remembering Sally Ride

She was a lot more than an astronaut. I have a piece up at SciAm: "Sally Ride's Enduring Legacy."

Old times

A couple of posts mulling the past: "Phantoms of the Internet," and "Dabbling with Ancient Superpowers."

Ski history

 A family story. "The Ancestral Rite of Skiing."
