On falling off a treadmill
Article Abstract:
Those who apply for membership in a health club are treated to a gamut of manmade machines and exercisers. These equipment are alright for some people but for other people who happen to do things that should not be done such as in a treadmill, it is an experience that will compel you to go back to the natural way of exercising and jogging even with the presence of encumbrances, namely, uneven terrain, jagged rocks, big wild geese. It will also make you realize that some things are better left unchanged and unspoiled by man's creativity.

Context is everything
Article Abstract:
People judge architectural structures based on context or pre-existing notions or mental images of what these are supposed to look like. Hotels during the 1930s, for instance, had New York-themed spaces based on people's ideas of New York gained from television. However, architectural critic Ada Louise Huxtable argues that the practice of replacing reality with selective fantasy makes it difficult to appreciate new architecture and undermines the creativity of architects.
