It would be nice if there was find your dream doctor dot com that worked a lot like the match-making sites you see advertised all over the place. But despite the fact that there isn’t such a website, you can use some of their principles to narrow down your search. …….

I would LOVE to see and touch this piece of cloth on exhibit at the American Museum of Natural History.
A spectacular and extremely rare textile, woven from golden-colored silk thread produced by more than one million spiders in Madagascar, goes on display Wednesday, September 23 in the Museum's Grand Gallery. This magnificent contemporary textile, measuring 11 feet by 4 feet, took four years to make using a painstaking technique developed more than 100 years ago.
