...shrine to Swiss maiden Heidi. This is Copenhagen's Hotel Fox, tel: (45) 3313 3000, an establishment that comprises the work of 21 designers from four continents. They were brought together as part of a marketing exercise by Volkswagen, which asked the group to transform the former Park Hotel - a 61-room property in the center of the Danish capital - into a venue for the three-week launch of the automaker's latest runabout, the Fox. The event concluded last month, but - happily for design fans - the Loh and Behold Avant-garde murals and imaginative furnishings characterise a new Singapore...
...covered walkways throughout. Lots of grass and trees. And many of the classrooms are new and bright. But it's also a typical Australian school in at least one way: staff are fed up with some of the parents. Last term, for instance, an infants teacher on car park duty recorded the details of a father who'd stopped in a no-parking zone.

I remember several conversations with Senator Clinton after her health-care plan was killed 10 years ago, and she was clearly pained-nonplussed by the quality of anger, the sheer hatred, directed against her. That experience would be a walk in the park compared to the vitriol if she ran for President. And while I'd love to see someone confront, and defeat, the free-range haters on the right, the last thing we need is a campaign that would polarize the nation even more. Indeed, we could use the exact opposite...
...North America's largest native cultural events. And it's fitting that the festival is held in Oklahoma, home to one of the largest Native American populations in the U.S. Cherokee, Cheyenne and Choctaw are just some of the 100 or so tribes that gather at State Fair Park for this massive powwow from June...
