Pour quoi frog?

Why frogs? Well, why not. These frogs are for Darcy, who has been in isolation in The Sydney Children's Hospital. If you want to follow Darcy's progress check out the journal updates here: www.caringbridge.org/visit/darcygilmour10/journal

If you want to make a frog you can find instructions at: http://www.savethefrogs.com/teachers/images/Origami-Jumping-Frog.pdf .

If frogs are beyond you, you can also give blood. Details of how available from the Australian Red Cross Blood Service.

Master of Arts

Apparently, today would have been Akira Yoshizawa's 101st birthday.  I am indebted to Google for this information.

If you used the google machine today you would have found this doodle:

"Hmm." I thought. "Origami."

And delved a little further.

Turns out Yoshizawa was a dab hand at a folding pieces of paper.

He liked to use wet paper.


And people who follow his technique are able to make amazing things like this.

Cool.  Very cool.
