| Circa Joan & David Shoes | | 2008-08-17 07:47:44 | | Designer Shoe CollectionFounded by Joan and David Helpern in Cambridge, Massachusetts, in 1967, the company developed because Joan wanted a comfortable, stylish shoe that would not become dated because of its design. When Joan married David Helpern in the 1960s, she was a student in child psychology, working on her Ph.D. at Harvard University. In her multiple roles of wife, mother, teacher, and student, Joan wanted a shoe that was not a gym shoe, loafer, or stiletto – the only readily available styles for women at the time. Circa Joan & David Joanne in Brown• Peep-toe wedge• Leather lining• Leather outsole• Upper: 100% leather• Contrast metallic trim• 3" stacked wedge heel$98Joan needed a shoe that would look stylish yet allow her to get about the city in comfort. The solution was to design the shoe herself. While editing academic manuscripts, Joan created footwear designs for department stores and private labels, including Harvard Square and Foreign Affairs.

| | Circa Survive B-Sides | | 2008-07-12 17:23:00 | | This year Circa Survive has so far released two internet exclusive b-sides from the sessions that produced last year's fantastic On Letting Go. To get these b-sides, you can either be a big ole douchey bastard and steal them, or you can donate a mere 99 cents to two very worthwhile charities.The first song is titled "1,000 Witnesses" and can be downloaded here. A purchase of this song goes directly to the Invisible Children, to help poor kids in Uganda.The second song, “The Most Dangerous Commercials,” can be downloaded here. A donation for this song goes to helping a local record store in Doylestown, PA. The store, where members of Circa Survive used to buy their albums, is being closed down and need your help to stay open.Either way, you can't go wrong. Helping worthy causes and previously unreleased Circa Survive material? Win-win in my book. | | By: Sunrise on the Sufferbus | | |

| Nablus, circa 1955 | | 2008-05-06 02:15:52 | | My cousin just added this vintage photograph of the family to Facebook. My father is the third one from the left on the bottom row, and my grandfather is the man holding the baby. Everyone else in the picture are my dad’s brothers and sisters.
This photograph was taken in Nablus, Palestine, and was probably [...] | | By: And Far Away... | | |

| Get Organized: Clearing Away Clutter Circa 1955 | | 2008-02-07 11:31:00 | | Ok, gals - keep this away from the man in your life, or you're likely to find it posted on your fridge as the "new" house rules!!!You may or may not have seen this particular article from Housekeeping Monthly dated May 1955. Some argue that it's not real, and it may not be...I'll let you form your own opinions on that. Either way, it seems to be a fairly accurate snapshot of the social views during that period of American history.With those social expectations in mind, I'd like to point out that "clear away the clutter" was #4 on the list of daily duties!Check out the article in question. And if you've ever felt like the only woman in history to have problems with clutter, then you can now rest easy -- to get organized and have a tidy home have both been legit concerns for ladies throughout the years! | | By: Get Organized! | | |
| | VIDEO: The future of motoring, circa 1960 | | 2008-02-02 20:02:14 | | Filed under: Etc., Videos
Back in 1960, the sky was the limit in terms of technology and industrial growth. 60 years earlier, only the rich had cars and telephones, and television was a pipe-dream. By 1960, however, every family had a car and a television, nuclear power had been invented, and jet airplanes transported people around [...] | | By: Car O Focus | | |
| | Hi, I’m a Mac…and I’m a PC - Circa 1996 | | 2007-07-24 01:18:05 | | So here is the predecessor (no joke) to Apple’s current ad campaign. If these two guys walked up to you now, who would you hang with? I am almost embarrassed about what was considered “cool” in the mid-90’s. While Mr. Mac’s Canadian tuxedo is quite a look, I am just glad digital camera’s didn’t exist back in my one strap down overall shorts days….

| | Top 10 Travel Tips (circa 1999) | | 2007-06-18 07:00:41 | | I first shared my Top 10 Travel Tips on the World Wide Web in 1999 after having spent the prior Summer in Europe. Some of the advice I had read beforehand (thanks Rough Guides First-Time Europe), and the rest was based on my experience (in some cases having not done what I’m suggesting below).
Nine years later, I still aim to remember these concepts while traveling…
1. Positive Attitude - No matter what happens on your trip, it is your story to tell. Don’t let bad incidents ruin your whole experience. Don’t let others bring you down. You worked hard to get to this point, and you deserve to enjoy it.
2. Patience - You will not make every train, bus, ferry, and airplane. Instead of getting angry, take the time to explore your surroundings, get a cup of European coffee. You will have to wait, but at least you are waiting in some exotic country!
3. Pack Light - Make sure your pack can fit on the plane as carry on luggage. If it is too big, take things out. Neve | | By: GoBackpacking | | |
| | | Travel Dispatch from Vietnam (circa 2001) | | 2007-05-08 07:00:50 | | I was sitting in my work cubicle, three years into my my first post-college job, when one of my good friends sent me the email below. I can remember my blood boiling with envy and jealousy as I read it. I don’t have a record of my response, however I’m sure it was something to the effect of “just you wait, I’ll get my chance to travel and then I’ll be the one sending you such messages!”

hey mr wannabe world traveler!
whats up?
At the moment, I’m held up in an Internet cafe in the middle of Vietnam waiting out a f*cking monsoon storm. Hopefully it will pass in the next 20 minutes but you never know!
Anyway, I have been traveling and thinking about how much you would LOVE S.E. Asia! Everything that backpacking in Europe USED to be, still exists here in S.E. Asia. The backpacking culture is MUCH MORE pronounced an | | By: GoBackpacking | | |
