Falling in Love, Thanks to a Typo
StoryCorps records true stories as told by real people and then brings them to life with animation. To R.P. Salazar, with Love, an animated short by the Rauch Brothers, is the true story of two strangers who met and fell in love thanks to their nearly identical email addresses. Rachel P. Salazar and Ruben P. Salazar lived halfway around the world from each other when a glitch in everyday electronic communication put them in touch.

KEITH HARING x NICHOLAS KIRKWOOD PUMPS
Keith Haring’s distinctive stylised characters and squiggles are printed all over these high heeled pumps from Nicholas Kirkwood, resulting in a fun eye-catching clash of contemporary styles! Definitely can safely classify these as a collectors item if nothing else. If you think you’ve got the guts to wear them, they are £545 at Browns.

Totem Pole to be finished in 4 days.
This is Baguio’s oldest tree, dating as old as 224 years and is now being carved in the image of a mother by 8 Ifugaos to give it a new life. To serve as a reminder to the people what a tree can provide to our existence, to never forget that before we happened, she has been around serving the earth we live in, down from our ancestors to the future inhabitants that we are now until 2 years ago when it died.
Amidst all these environmental issues we are faced with in the Philippines, one currently getting a mass of attention is the cutting of 182 mature trees as part of SM Baguio’s plan to create a 7-storey parking space for 1,000 vehicles. This means that eventually, 42 fully grown pine trees will be earthballed along with 43 alnus trees and 97 pine tree saplings will be cut by the developer. And knowing the pine tree’s sensitivity to up-rooting, all this move to expand a mall will only kill the trees despite their planned “green architecture”.
As of now protests are ongoing to fight against this and the concerned people of the city are banking on all the help they can get from anyone who welcomes the idea of preserving the existence of these trees and a city that is now being threatened of heavier pollution and eventual lack of protection against natural disasters.
Since last week, environmental advocates have gathered 3,000 signatures and need more to prove the importance of this movement. Counter-acting this goal has produced several protests, one tomorrow, Jan 20 - including artists and students to open up the minds of those who could care less of the impact on the city.
Hoping this post serves as an image of urgency to us all. We’re currently mobilizing a movement that could extend support not just to Baguio but to other patches of land in the Philippines that could be in danger in the wrong hands.
