Does that describe how you feel about getting things done today? And you’d do just that except for the nagging little voice in your head that keeps telling you to get off your butt and do something productive. That nagging voice is relentless, but you’re oh-so-uninspired and maybe even a bit depressed. Thank goodness for that inner voice, because without it, you might not be reading this post and wondering how you can get yourself out of the ho-hum slump you’re in....

Gender, Children and Social Protection Minister-designate, Miss Otiko Afisa Djaba, who is also the NPP National Women’s Organizer, has been on the lips, posts, tweets and what have you of many Ghanaians since her appearance before the Parliament Appointment Committee responsible for vetting President Akufo-Addo’s ministerial nominees. Miss Djaba faced the parliamentary vetting committee on Monday, 30th January 2017. However, a lot of things seem to have gone wrong with the way she presented herself during the vetting and we really want to talk about them....

It has often been said that a rose by any other name probably wouldn’t smell as sweet, the same principle might not apply in the case of some of these celebrities, while you might already be aware of their stage names, of course, it’s clear that Ghanaian pop idols have some of the most colorful names on stage, but it will come as a surprise to many to hear that quite a few of our favourite stars do not actually go by the monikers they were born with....

Butitta purchased his bus for just $3,000 from a local Craigslist ad, and spent another $6,000 on materials and other refurbishments to get it up to speed. He cleanly gutted the full interior, from the yellow line to the back gate, and in this naked frame he built a functional living environment. Around a central aisle, Butitta’s bus now features a kitchen area, a bathroom and seating sections including space for sleep....

The two containers have been dubbed in an extremely logical way; the ground level shipping container is known as C-ONE, while the office space perched on top goes by C-TWO. To create a solid foundation and open courtyard, the ground-level container has been cut in half. This also made it easier to position the segments in a way that takes advantage of the corner plot, and piques the interest of passersby who might otherwise not be willing to investigate....

Me, I’m rather fortunate in that I live in a city where bike theft isn’t a significant problem – meaning I can basically take my bike anywhere. Even with my low-grade lock, I don’t have a whole lot to worry about; I’m not likely going to see a thief happening by (the fact that I generally keep it in my apartment notwithstanding). Some places, that’s not the case: in Toronto, for example, bike theft is a constant and pervasive problem....

A flashy new Ninja or a sparkly Desmosedici might be fun, but they all blend together pretty quickly, whereas a café racer or a 1940 German job complete with sidecar is a reproduction worthy of drawing admiring glances. When you’re ready to ride or die with style, then it’s time you snagged one of the 16 best retro motorcycles around. They’ll complement your vintage helmet, and prove who is Hell’s finest Angel....

Have you ever seen anything so comfortable? The Snug Lounge Chair by Alvin Tjitrowirjo is as much “bed” as it is “chair”, a leather-bound half shell for the modern living room. The Snug Lounge rests on its natural curve and a foot piece that can be removed to turn the Snug into a rocking chair. We likely would do a lot more sleeping than rocking in this one, but it’s nice to know that’s available....

The Trefecta DRT is a high performance e-bike that is powered by a 4kW electric motor and a fast-charging lithium-ion battery. It’s a hybrid design, allowing the cyclist to pedal and add speed and service range beyond the electric power alone. It can achieve speeds of about 43.5 MPH, far faster than your typical electric bicycle, and can cruise for up to 62 miles on a single charge. The human element adds more range, and the bike sport regenerative breaking technology to create a little more juice at each stop....

The Tula House by Patkau Architects is a living gallery of sorts, a green-roofed dwelling designed to celebrate the scenery beyond. Tula House is effectively an exercise in frontier modernism. It is a large dwelling, spanning 4,350 square feet, constructed without access roads that connect to the island. Every bit of material that wasn’t sourced on the island was carried by boat and assembled on site. Materials aside, even its construction process required special precision....

Being in a situation like this is frustrating. It makes you wonder if your partner even cares about your relationship at all. After all, if they truly loved you, wouldn’t they want to make time for you? The good news is: there is a way out of the cycle of feeling desperate for attention and never actually getting your needs fulfilled. Why Do I Have to Beg for Attention? Maybe you’re wondering: Why do I need constant attention from my boyfriend?...

The Washington Metro We contend that the Washington Metro is the most iconic and visually progressive subway system in the United States. First built in 1976, this 100-mile network of tunnels includes 28 stations, most of which are the work of architect Harry Weese. These massive, concrete caverns feature an egg carton texture that stretches from one side to the other in a split cylinder design. The walls are out of reach, there are no thick pillars breaking up the view and the whole expanse is awash in indirect light....

Vanishing Point Photography is a style of photographic imagery where groups of parallel lines terminate at a central point of convergence. This style evokes a feeling of movement, of transcendence often symbolized by a light at the end of a tunnel. Our friends at Abduzeedo have curated a collection of vanishing point photography from some of Flickr’s best. Since we’re suckers for all things slow shutter, some of the slower vanishing point shots within have totally blown us away....

Jonas Lindvall’s design of the Villa M2 in Malmo, Sweden may be an exercise in contemporary minimalism, but it is the details of his work which have us drooling. While most of the home appears stark and simple at first glance, we love the little details– like the skylight above the bed, the recessed, hidden lighting, and the floor-to-ceiling windows that collapse into the open space outdoors. The structure of the Villa M2 is angular and asymmetrical, an L-shaped design with structural offshoots like a bedroom box that juts out over the patio below....

Reactions largely depend on the person, situation, and the severity of their mental health condition. However, in nearly all cases, when a narcissist realizes you are done with a relationship, they don’t react well. The same goes when you confront them with accusations or threatening facts. Therefore, it’s wise to prepare before engaging a narcissist with challenging information. But before we unpack the nuts and bolts of dealing with a narcissist who knows you’re onto them, let’s make a distinction....

I’ve never really had any close friends or developed much of a dating life, and people seem to avoid me like the plague. Am I really that bad? Why don’t people like me? And what can I do about it? We’ve all felt this way at some point in our lives, haven’t we? You wake up one day and wonder why you can’t seem to make any friends or get along with anyone....

However, school was also marked with moments of poor decision making which occasionally resulted in meaningless contests and even fights. Damn, why is it that people are so willing to get into fights at school? And why does it always have to be girls fighting over “nothing?” Well, maybe it’s never really “nothing” in the first place… Here are 10 Unthinkable Reasons Girls Fight at School 1. Jealousy Jealousy in girls is known to cause almost half of all their school fights....

The residents of a living community on a beach in New Zealand have the luxury of utilizing the open air wine room at the Wiroa Station designed by MAP Architects. The design of the wine tasting room takes a minimalist approach as it consists of mostly untreated concrete walls and floor with wood finished accents. A long table provides spaces for the wine and a built concrete wall is home to the assortment of bottles....

These 10 classic cars saw new life in 2014. They were restored to perfection, auctioned to a new owner, or shown at a museum as works of modern art. They are the 10 most remarkable classic car stories we covered in 2014, and you’re invited to get behind the wheel below. 1959 Buick Invicta Hardtop Coupe “Peaches and Cream” It might as well be a sculpture. This brash caricature of 1950’s design is a genuine work of art, one that the gods gave an engine just so it could show itself off....
