Barista News: Comings & Goings


Camila  (not pictured) is back in town and stopped by for Juliya and Adele's goodbye party.   Juliya has been doing some great graphics for us as well as being one of our awesome baristas.  Alas, school is very busy for someone aiming for law school.  You can see Amanda next to Juliya, and Doug Campbell at the side, trying to sneak out of the frame.




Adele has already graduated is going overseas.  She is leaving for West Africa via the Peace Corps.  Both Nathanial and Gloria were in the Peace Corps, back in the day, and Gloria brought along pages from her photo album.

French Photo - Lady Gaga

This month's Photo (French) came in with another striking Lady Gaga cover.  Plus some luscious desert photos and challenging photos of the people who subsist by scavenging garbage dumps.  One of the great things about Photo (French) is its breadth of coverage.  It is always worth checking out, but it definitely isn't suitable for all viewers!

Next issue (expected mid February) will be the amateur issue.
