Some interesting ongoing dramatics at one of the two grave sites for Frank Lloyd Wright. Back in May, at his original resting place, at Taliesin in Wisconsin (his body was later moved to the other Taliesin in Arizona), architect and Wright student John Ottenheimer had secretly snuck in and placed a gravestone for Mamah Borthwick, Wright’s longtime mistress who was murdered in the area. The family found the stone almost immediately and demanded that it be removed. Now Ottenheimer, who also designed Wright’s original grave, is saying that he doesn’t want it back, that the family should hold on to it until the small marker memorializing Borthwick needs to be replaced or they decide to follow his beliefs. Here’s a bit:
“I really think, given time, the cemetery board will figure out something, they will find a place. Another ten or twenty or thirty years, the (existing) stone will be totally unreadable,” he said. “I think the best place for it now would be in the stonework at Taliesin. It’s a memorial of someone, and Taliesin was where she was killed, and people forget Taliesin was built for her.”

The smart new iPhone application from Panelfly fills the digital void for comic book fans with a mobile platform for purchasing, storing and viewing comics.
An all-encompassing reader app—currently the only one of its kind available via iTunes—it includes a mobile store offering titles from a growing spate of comic publishers like NBM, SLG and Sterling, as well as complete library functionality that organizes purchased books according to title, publisher, author, artist and genre. It also takes advantage of the iPhone’s landscape viewing capability, allowing users to browse with a sideways cover flow option.
When reading comics, users can swipe between full pages, refer to a page index menu or find a previously-saved page via bookmarking. Don’t have the eyes of a teenage fan? The application’s exclusive navigation engine intuitively zooms in from one sequential panel to the next at the tap of the screen. It’s a feature that, unlike other mobile device readers that reformat the text and illustration layout, maintains the integrity of each comic’s illustrations on a full-color display, giving them the unabridged focus they deserve.
Panelfly is available from iTunes for $2. Comics vary depending on publisher, but run approximately $3 each.
 | Just because summer is drawing to a close, it doesn’t mean you need to ditch your fab summer glow and banish all your tan-enhancing products to their train-case storage. In fact, there’s one place that might have been neglected by your bronzing beach days — your lips! While the idea of a tan is certainly summery, the bronze-y shimmer of this Too Faced Lip Bronzer is completely fall festive. The tropical flavors and scents may have you nostalgic for poolside days of your recent past, but the three pretty golden-based shades and skin-soothing conditioners never go out of season! Plus, as a compulsive buyer of all lip gloss, especially shimmery versions of natural hues, I can’t help but be on board for this sun-kissed take on the nude lip! Price: $17 each |
