Thomasina in Tom Stoppard's mind bending time warping play, ARCADIA, observes that when you stir raspberry jam into vanilla pudding it will first swirl in streaks but ultimately will turn the entire pudding pink. If you stir the pudding in the opposite direction, the jam will not separate back out again. --LIFE MOVES ONLY FORWARD--NEVER BACK!--

Shakespeare the Inexhaustible
Tumbled on a new set of Shakespeare quizzes the other day at the Bantam Shakespeare site. They are a bit more tricky than the ones on the About.com Shakespeare site administered by Amanda Mabillard and there is a catchy musical background and suitably acerbic mock Elizabethan comments to your answers. Just hit this button. When you get there choose the quiz you would like to try. The illustration accompanying this note is of the statue of the bard in Leicester Sq. in London. It is a 19th century copy of the one in Westminister Abbey.
