Road Runners

In May 2010, I drove from Point Arena, Ca. to San Francisco.

The drive on route 1 was beautiful. We were driving a rental car (Ford Mustang 2010 Convertible). Point Arena is north of San Francisco. Nothing much to see there, except the Lighthouse (the highest one in the US).

While Ralph was driving back to SF I did this short film. I hope you enjoy it.

Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé Chinese Qing Bronzes Fetch $40 Million.

The two beautiful Qing bronzes head were sold tonight at Christie’s. China’s State Administration of Cultural Heritage last week ask to Christie’s not to sell the heads.

The 1995 United Nations Unidroit Convention limits claims on stolen cultural artifacts to within 50 years of their theft. China seems to not want to respect that. 

I download two videos about the sale on Youtube and got a lot of comments from chinese.
