    Updated: 2012-05-31 13:30:00
    The fast food chain McDonald's is most frequently associated with suburban sprawl, ho-hum architecture, and food that's godawful for you. Well, they haven't done much to make the food healthier, but, in at least this one case, turned to preserving a historic structure. Faced with intense community opposition to a tear down, McDonald's transformed an existing colonial home into a hamburger outpost while retaining the classic architecture. Bravo. [Gothamist]

    Picking the right paint color for one's front door isn't just about aesthetics…it's loaded with meaning, or so says a paint color psychologist (this is an actual job). One of the most popular colors - blue - apparently conveys that the owner inside is looking for a retreat from a "harsh and demanding world" while red is all about "energy and excitement." And be warned: brown sends "mixed messages." [Paint Quality Institute]

So what does he do? He makes his sign very clear: "Reduced, But Not Stupid or Desperate."

    Some new housing data was just released and it shows that the number of home buyers who signed contracts in April dipped to the lowest level since December. But do these grey clouds indicate a larger storm looming on the horizon? Many analysts don't seem to be that worried (today's numbers are still more than 14% higher than April 2011) and think that a one-month setback doesn't change overall positive trajectory of the housing market.

The treacherous travel may explain why the island, which is actually a volcano inside a larger volcano, has just 200 full-time residents. [Tofugu]
