Jeni's ice cream cookbook

Great ( if not also complicated) recipes for dozens of interesting ice creams. So far we have made the black coffee which was excellent and we modified the vanilla to make chocolate chip for Ian. Not surprising but the key to this is patience and quality ingredients (especially the vanilla). Thanks Ann.

The idea is there but the execution is a little too coarse and uncoordinated. The use of orange is bold but could have used a little relieve, perhaps on the surfaces in the "folded" area. The handset which is the perhaps the best feature when compared with cell phone ergonomics does not seem to relate to the body. But still, I like it.

Leica - Hermes edition?
I like the orange but the idea of a hermes edition for Leica feels to me like a Burberry edition of a ferrari.

Is kodak coming back? I don't know but at least they have stopped trying to copy Leica. Such a talented team, it is a shame that they can't seem to let go of what they want to make and focus on making things people want. The proportions here are a bit dated but still interesting.

Best BBQ in chicago? I think so. Best restaurant in chicago. Not sure about that but it is pretty amazing. Just be ready to wait for a table because they do not take reservations and also plan to look for a parking place for a while.

Dated material layering technique looks fresh when combined with the softer form and accent color. Great refresh for Zeno

Neato Robotics

This seems like an aesthetic step backwards from Roomba but the articles I read on-line seem to indicate that the suction and sensing are superior. It looks to me like the design was off to a good start but was done orthographically instead of in 3D.
