A "non-kosher" Torah scroll in the Antiga Sinagoga in Barcelona's medieval Jewish Quarter. The scroll was bought in a fleamarket in Morocco and was given to this restored synagogue. It is "non-kosher" because some parts of the Torah are missing.

On the left is Barnes & Noble; right Amazon. Same book, but not only does Amazon provide a description of the book, but a whole lot more.
I've watched lots and lots of usability tests that have web pages (either in an app of site) that scroll. Most users don't scroll. Even though they know there's content below the "fold."
Amazon seems to take the tack that "if people do scroll, we want to sell them something." Something relevant.

Side note: Pick up any book by Dale Peck, such as Drift House for your kid or yourself; great books.

The Clark Center for Japanese Art and Culture was founded by Willard (Bill) Clark and his wife in 1995. Bill grew up in the San Joaquin Valley and attended the University of California in animal husbandry. In the 6th grade he saw a photo of a Japanese garden which inaugurated a life-long interest. With his wife, he visited Japan many times, bought some art eventually traveled with Sherman Lee, the director of the Cleveland Museum of Art and one of the US's great experts on Asian art. The rest, as they say, is history. Bill Clark remains dedicated to the rural farming community of Hanford, Ca (pop 52,000), where his collection is housed, and plans to keep it there.

(For some reason, this made Explore for a short time. Not sure why, they're just socks...)
I bought this scroll on ebay for the loft (and 3 others!). I rather liked the description: This hanging scroll was written about 70 years ago. One line calligraphy is written there. I cannot read this calligraphy. But this is the good calligraphy of a strict style of handwriting. There are wrinkles. But it is still hung enough.
I thought this was a bargain for $15.50!
I like how these socks came out. There was some, um, interesting pooling with the yarn, but it doesn't really detract.
The whole time I was knitting these, I kept thinking they were coming out too big. I even had a dream about it. But every time I tried them on, they fit my wide foot perfectly! And in the end? They look, fit, and feel great!
Started somewhere around the beginning of April.
Frogged and restarted once.

I seriously underestimated the space available for the text. I could have used a larger nib or increased the line spacing.
Words are by myself:
Call upon all and know that We, Christopher and Morgen, by Grace and Prowess Rightful King and Queen of Sylvan AEthelmearc, to all people to whom these present letters shall come, send greetings. Know ye that of Our special grace, certain skill of arms has come to Our notice. We, with Our Own eyes, have witnessed the prowess of Augusto Giuseppe da San Donato, who, with little effort, defeated, demoralized, depressed, discouraged, disheartened and did away with all competition upon the Thrown Weapons range. Furthermore, he overpowered and oppressed all who opposed him and thus, with no other thrower left standing, We are so moved to name the said Augusto as Our Champion of Thrown Weapons. Done on the 30th day of Septemebr, as41, at Harvest Raid.
