ith nearly 50 vendors, the Hi-Desert Cultural Center launched the region’s largest summer fair and market, Bazaart Nights, bringing a massive crowd and lots of smiles to the desert this past Friday. Fine artists, crafters, boutique fooderies, jewelers, clothiers, and more came together under one air-conditioned roof in a celebratory environment as they marketed their creations, classes, and offerings to locals and world travelers alike.

• “Prison Inside Me” is a hotel of sorts in South Korea where people pay to be locked away in solitary confinement for 24 hours. “Jail mates” wear matching uniforms, sleep on the floor in 54-square-foot cells and are forbidden to speak to each other. Meals are minimal -- a steamed sweet potato and banana shake for dinner and rice porridge for breakfast. Like any good getaway, the prison stay comes with a souvenir: a certificate of parole upon completing one’s stint in solitary confinement!
