Paralaža in situ: France celebrates 2CV (along with Uros Bobic)
http://paralaza.blogspot.com/2008/05/france-celebrates-2cv.html
Saturday, May 3, 2008. France celebrates 2CV (along with Uros Bobic). It's 60 years since the rustic, quirky. Was offered to an initially unimpressed public and it's 18 years since the last of five million left the assembly line. You don't see many around any more but the intrepid little 2CV is the object of fond memory for anyone lived those decades. If you're one of them and around Paris, it's worth a visit to the show that the Cité des Sciences has just opened in homage to the little car.

Paralaža in situ: Muda
http://paralaza.blogspot.com/2010/02/muda.html
Wednesday, February 10, 2010. First heard about the concept of Mottainai. Regretting to waste) while listening to a story on WNYC radio. I was brought up with daily reminders not to waste food, and I like to think that I extend the idea of no waste onto everything I do. Early last year though, preparing for something in school, I read a bit more about mottainai, and came across the concept of Muda. Originating in Shintoism, and used notably by Toyota. Gets a fresh nuance to it, an added value.
