Death, a thought.
Posted on April 10, 2018 Leave a Comment
Today while sitting at a stop light on the way to a tutoring session, I was gripped by the reality of my impending death. I was mindlessly listening to an interview on NPR. Incidentally, it was a repeat of an interview I had heard the morning before. A few stop lights back, I had wondered […]

Childs+Sulzmann appointed for Historic Country Estate Hospitality Project
Childs+Sulzmann have won a commission to develop a feasibility study for properties on the historic Wasing Estate in Berkshire.
Wasing has been in the same family since 1759 and remains a thriving entity today as a venue for weddings, meetings, retreats and sporting activities. This latest study will be looking at how currently derelict farm buildings, including an 18th century barn, pig sties and stables, could be developed to add further hospitality facilities to the estate.
Childs+Sulzmann won the commission through a competitive tendering process and is working with hotel and hospitality consultancy, Mark Fagan, to develop the scheme.
Set in picturesque countryside between the Berkshire villages of Aldermaston, Brimpton and Woolhampton, the Wasing Estate covers several thousand acres of farmland, woodland and lakes.
'We are delighted to have the opportunity to use our experience of developing hospitality schemes within heritage buildings in such a stunning setting and on such a prestigious, historic estate,' comments Childs+Sulzmann project director, Mike Cox.

Arrive Nairobi anytime. Spend the night at a funky local restaurant, meet our new team, and then off to bed ready for our border hop tomorrow.
Backpacking time! On our private transfer to the Kenyan/Tanzanian border. Get stamped outta Kenya, into Tanzania and then off to Arusha we go, Kilimanjaro as the backdrop throughout. Spectacular.
Time to get local. We'll spend the morning at a Maasai tribal village, learn about how the indigenous population have survived, and flourished, here for thousands of years. After lunch we'll meet with our partner-project coordinator, where we'll be briefed about how you guys, the tour and the GBGA are benefitting our project.
Project time, we're good to go time to get your hands dirty. Painting, playground installation, and of course some fun and games with the kids and we're underway!
Another day of blood, sweat and tours (hopefully we'll skip the blood!) as we make progress on our project. Expect a hot, hard day with plenty of painting, cleaning and fun. Evening beers will be a great award when we get back to our accommodation.
We're nearly there, or at least we should be if we've worked hard enough! The morning will be spent finalising all our various tasks, and then in the afternoon we'll have our unveiling at the official opening ceremony, followed by a mini-sports day with the kids. Expect laughs, smiles and even a few tears amongst the big softies in our group. This is what travel is all about.
Hope you had an early night, we're up early for a real highlight of the trip. Safari! Let's hope to spot the big 5 as we explore the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro crater, perhaps the most exciting place to safari on the planet. We'll be sleeping in tents amidst the wildlife that evening, keep your eyes peeled for lions!
Another day of game drives amongst lions, rhinos, giraffes to name a few. Hope you have some spare battery packs, you'll need them. As the sunset sets we'll head back to Arusha for one night.
Travel time. Back to our backpacking routes as we spend the day traversing Tanzania, some amazing scenery on the way, when we arrive in Dar, we'll be staying right on the beach, hopefully in time for sunset, but it's Africa time now folks, so no guarantees!
Up and on the ferry to Zanzibar, it's time for paradise! Once we arrive, we'll check-in and spend the day roaming the atmospheric, old-world Stone Town, a UNESCO heritage site in its own right, evening at the night market, and good times allround.
Off today to the north of Zanzibar, to their most prized-beach – Nungwi. Chill time, snorkelling trips, watching 50 dhows leaving the harbour at sunset is impressive indeed. It doesn't get more relaxing than this, you earned it.
Today will take a dhow boat for the group out on the ocean, do a spot of snorkelling and soak up the rays. The late afternoon and evening are all yours, and then it's a goodbye dinner and drinks.
That's all folks! It's the last day of the trip, we'll help you guys transit back to StoneTown, if you've booked flights back to Nairobi, or want the ferry back to Dar, we'll help you there too. Or,perhaps stay a few days and explore amazing Zanzibar, that's certainly our plan!

2 days in a row I've completed my rings. Yes, I am slave to my Apple Watch. Its unending task mastering has me out walking the dog, in the dark, up a 13% hill for me to get in the last 20 minutes of exercise for the day to close the Exercise Ring. I know, I know. But you know what ? I'm actually quite pleased with myself for having the discipline to get myself out to do this under the circumstances.
I don't know why I am impulsed to do it, but it feels good to have accomplished something quick and effective and clearly beneficial for my health.
Having had 4 minutes left on the exercise counter to reach the slave masters' required target, I embarked upon a quick 4 minute circuit training routine, adapted from those famous 7 minute workout routines. Once the rings had been closed, it was off for a hot shower.
I live a sedentary life, one that prevents me from exercising adequately in the day. Where I live, the question of working out at lunchtime is rather complicated — it's hot, it's very humid and more importantly we have no showers. Nay a room where I can cat lick myself to clean, for an afternoon client meeting. Pouring with sweat at a meeting is rather frowned upon for some reason.
I decided I should embark upon Matthew 2.0 this year, having upgraded Matthew 1.0 to 1.8 over the course of last year. Closing these rings, is part of that upgrade process.
Release Notes, Matthew 2.0
- Improved CPU
- Improved Power Management
- Improved Concentration
- Fixed Sleeping bug
- Fixed Bad Eating bug
- Implemented Mindfullness 1.0
- Implemented Exercise 1.0

Haryana health minister Anil Vij calls those opposing yoga 'traitors'
Haryana health minister Anil Vij on Tuesday sparked another controversy, dubbing all those opposing yoga as 'traitors'.chandigarh Updated: Jun 17, 2015 08:48 IST
Hindustan Times
Haryana health minister Anil Vij on Tuesday sparked another controversy, dubbing all those opposing yoga as 'traitors'.
The minister tweeted: "Pracheen vidya yoga se Hindustan to saare vishwa mein pehchaan mili hai. Jo log iska virodh kar rahein hain ve deshdrohi hain. Unko apne munh band rakhne chahiye (Yoga has got recognition for India in the world. All those opposing it are traitors. They should shut up).
प्राचीन विधा योग से हिन्दुस्तान को सारे विश्व में पहचान मिली है । जो लोग इसका विरोध कर रहे हैं वह देशद्रोही हैं । उनको मुह बंद रखना चाहिए ।— ANIL VIJ Hr Minister (@anilvijmantri) June 16, 2015
Vij followed it up with another tweet. "Yoga ka arth hota hai jodna jinka kaam hai todna ve isse kabhi sweekar nahin kar sakte (The meaning of yoga is to unite. Those whose only job is to break will never accept it)," he posted.
योग का अर्थ होता है जोड़ना जिनका काम है तोड़ना वह इसे कभी स्वीकार नहों कर सकते ।— ANIL VIJ Hr Minister (@anilvijmantri) June 16, 2015
Known for his frequent run-ins with mandarins, comments on social media and missives, the irrepressible minister, who regularly takes digs at his party colleagues and rivals, posted the two tweets after participating in a two-and-a-hour long practice session held by yoga guru Ramdev at a stadium in nearby Panchkula.
Ramdev, who is also the state's ambassador for yoga and ayurveda, held the training camp for chief minister Manohar Lal Khattar, his ministers, MLAs and bureaucrats as part of preparations for the big event planned by the state government on June 21, the International Yoga Day.
Taking offence to the minister's statement, Congress Legislature Party leader Kiran Choudhry termed it as a sign of lack of tolerance. "The minister does know what he is talking. It is a matter of personal choice of people," she told HT.
Describing the BJP government's priorities as lopsided, Choudhry said the state authorities were spending Rs 3.5 crore on organising yoga events instead of attending to problems of people in the state.
"MGNREGA workers are protesting because they have not been provided work. The government is busy holding events when they could have used the money to provide employment to such workers," she said.

Qatar Airways
Red Bull, GoPro, Dove – these brands have leveraged their content creation to drive huge awareness and sales. However, are they false prophets, unicorns, the outliers that drives the rest of us towards viral glory? How many of us have heard that "we want it to go viral" in a creative meeting, it's practically a mantra. Marketers used to be happy with a weekly ad, TVC a quarter, with huge production budgets and advertising dollars. Now, a marketer needs to "feed the maw"; the never ending cycle of creating images that can be memes, videos that make us laugh or cry, blogs that inform, infographics that engage, and witty (but not too witty) 140 character missives, posted daily, weekly, monthly. Agencies can't scale down and few have the budget or the resources for an editorial production team but our customers are spending more and more time on social. How do you feed the maw? * Maw: the jaws or throat of a voracious animal.

Lots of details about me (but in Traditional Chinese Big-5 encoding with many English Titles
times. Of course, I am not in the best shape like it now. hehe..... : -
I belong to the Hong Kong Evangelical Zion Church which is related to the Wesleyan traditions.
I have studied my first theological degree in an Evangelical seminary (Evangel
Theological Seminary).
Now I am studying Th. D.(Doctor of Theology in New Testament.)
I am the second son of my parent and have three other siblings. (Please check my family photo section.)
Recent Situation (please check the homepage)
2.4.2001 ---- 3 parents of our members have received Christ and the church has moved ups and downs. The church's worship attendance is growing up quickly and suddenly decreases rapidly and then up quickly. But the morale is higher than before. When I have just arrived, it is decreasing (due to the leave of the previous good pastor.) But thanks God for all the miracles and strength given to the members who are in difficulties and I see many of them growing in faith in the Lord's grace, miracles and many more.
28.2.2001 ---- My church's recruit of new female pastor has stopped because we have no suitable candidate now. We are still waiting for God's leading. I have tried to write an article, but lack of time to do so. Besides, my study on Th. D. has no progress. But teaching in the evening school of LTS is good, I enjoy it. My teaching on Romans in the evening school has just finished.
11.2.2001 ---- The recruit continues and has become one of the hardest choice in the church. There are totally 7 candidates with 2 rejected by us, and 2 redraw their application. One is waiting for the 2nd interview; the other two have not yet started the first interview. But the choice is difficult; and .... Besides, I will start to teach Matthew in the coming month.
2.2001 ------- We are recruiting a Bible woman (ministress) to help in the church's work. It is nice to four ones apply, but the choice and preparation process is a difficult one. Some members' relatives are sick and a new baby is born to us. Many new projects to start: Bible reading (and spiritual reading); new adult Sunday school courses, and some other plannings.
31.1.2001 ---- I am very busy at the church's work. My family is OK and Jaco, my younger sister's son, has gone to US. My wife is of good health and has finished her course work. Taking one more subject, then she will finish her study in Statistics! My study in Th. D. is absolutely in 'slow motion'. I have become upset on that. My skills in the webdesign software are progressing though I don't have much time to read the books on that.

Symphonic Complexities
A visual comparison of the final act of six iconic symphonies.
This work required me to visualise, contrast and compare a complex set of data. My chosen set of data was comprised of six iconic classic symphonies. The specific data that was used for the visualisations was the number and kind of keys that were played by each of the instrumental groups. All visuals are based on a classic set-up of an orchestra.

Losing a loved one is always a traumatic and deeply depressing experience, especially when that person is your own parent. Really, the only thing worse than losing one parent unexpectedly is losing two, which unfortunately is exactly what happened to the Young family.
Within a short succession, siblings Christian, Keira, and Kaley Young lost not only their mother but a few short years later, their father as well — Keith Young, a New York City fireman.
They were determined to keep their father's legacy alive, appearing on the show Shark Tank recently to present a product he invented, a new type of cutting board.
Like many of the other brave men and women of the FDNY, Keith was one of the first responders on the scene back on September 11, 2001, when the Twin Towers of the NYC's World Trade Center collapsed.
After experiencing this tragedy, Keith went on to follow another passion of his, throwing himself into the world of cooking. It was during this time that he came up with the idea for his invention. Unfortunately, as he was working on the prototype in 2012, he had the bad luck of being front and center to another tragedy. Breast cancer struck his wife Elizabeth, who passed away shortly after.
As expected, the following years were quite rough for the Young family. During this mourning period, Keith dove even deeper into his passion for cooking and was even to able to gain a spot on the Food Network cooking series, Chopped. All this time spent cooking reminded him once again of his product idea. Soon after, the first prototype of the Cup Board Pro was finally created. He even made a video of himself demonstrating the product which he used as a Shark Tank audition tape.
In an interview with Inside Edition, daughter Kaley discussed the product:
"Our dad's dream was to go on Shark Tank with this invention."
Sadly, the short video was as close as he ever got to realizing this dream.
Like so many of the other heroes who raced to Ground Zero on 9/11, Keith fell ill with cancer as a result of exposure to the toxic dust from the debris at the scene. In what would be the second tragedy for the Young family in recent years, Keith succumbed the cancer and passed away in the beginning of 2018.
His children couldn't bring themselves to let their father's dreams of making it on Shark Tank die with him. All three siblings decided to appear on the show in his place to present the Cup Board Pro, and the panel of judges were noticeably moved by the story.
The decision was unanimous, with all five judges choosing to come together and invest in the business in honor of Keith and his family. It seems that it was really a pretty great product as well.
Since the episodes airing, the Cup Board Pro has sold out on Amazon, which means over a million units have been purchased. Thanks to Christian, Keira, and Kaley, as well as the Sharks, it is certain that Keith Young's memory will now continue long into the future.
Watch the awesome moment below.

Miley Cyrus reveals she was taken advantage of as a child star
She may have put the Hannah in Hannah Montana, but Miley Cyrus insists she didn't reap the rewards as the star of her own TV show.
In fact, the 23-year-old admits she was taken advantage of as a child star growing up in the Disney family.
Despite her dad Billy Ray Cyrus being in the music industry, the singer and actress insists his business savvy didn't translate to the world of TV, leaving her wide open to being manipulated.
'I did not grow up spoiled in any way. I just wanted to be on TV,' she tells Elle magazine. 'I mean, at one point – they'll probably kill me for saying it – I was probably the least-paid actress on my cast because I didn't know any better. I was just like, "I can be on Disney! Yeah, I want to do it!"'
Miley even explains that she let the show use her name without any compensation or trademark.
'My name was Miley on my show, but I didn't own my name – we didn't think about that,' she says. 'Like, "Yeah, you can use my name on your show, sure!"'
Fortunately, Miley's mum, Tish Cyrus, cottoned on to the fact that she was being taken advantage of and stepped in.
'My mom started understanding how many people take advantage of a child, so she hired smart people to protect me in that way,' Miley adds. 'I'm happy that when I was younger, people protected me and put me in a position where I can now control my music.'

Instagram for the Library
Trying to manage social media for my two libraries while also maintaining my personal accounts meant I needed to make some decisions...or my 5 year old son would never see me. I have a Facebook account that is strictly my personal account. I use Twitter for my own professional learning and to share information with teachers and students.
I also have a personal Instagram account and last month started Instagram accounts for both my school libraries - @lmslibrary @colonelslibrary.
Instagram allows users to toggle between accounts without having to log out and log back in. It also allows users to link multiple accounts to one Twitter account.
I have 3 main purposes for using Instagram for the libraries:
- To promote the library program.
- To share news and information about events and resources.
- To promote literacy. At the high school level I am working on a #ebooksLHS showcasing ebooks that we have.

Emotional and intense, Frank Horvat is an accomplished multi-genre composer and pianist who has made the tricky musical leap that allows him to pursue a niche of his own (Edmonton Journal). Frank gives his audiences time and space to reflect in this fast-paced world. His compositions tell deeply personal stories while permitting audiences to ponder their own.
Whether he writes for his band, the concert stage or film/TV, his music is both aggressive and introspective. It digs deep into your heart and soul with a driving minimalism and a haunting reflection. With a continuously growing discography and composition premieres on four continents, he has performed in a variety of venues and festivals worldwide including the Glenn Gould Studio, Massey Hall, Nuit Blanche, Music and Beyond Festival, Beaches Jazz Festival, NXNE, Gallery 345, NYC's St. Mark's Church-in-the-Bowery and his compositions have been featured in plays, film and on television networks like the CBC, HBO & Bravo as well as radio stations internationally.
He ignores boundaries and isn't afraid to mix politics with art (Ludwig van Toronto). Many of his albums are statements on social issues including The Current Agenda (2017), You Haven't Been (2017), Strange Machine (2014), and A Little Dark Music (2010), which led to 60+ performances across North America, always in the dark, of his critically acclaimed hour-long solo piano piece, Earth Hour, on the sustainably-minded Green Keys Tour.
On the heels of releasing four multi-genre albums in 2017, WholeNote Magazine proclaimed him one of the most inventive songwriters to come out of the contemporary scene in Canada. Frank was also the 2017 recipient of the inaugural Kathleen McMorrow Music Award for contemporary composition.
Born in Ottawa, he now lives by the lake in Toronto with his wife/manager. Frank is an Associate Composer at the Canadian Music Centre, a member of the Canadian League of Composers and is passionate about social issues related to human rights and the environment.

My name is Deon Viljoen from uMhlanga Rocks near Durban on the East Coast of South Africa.
I'm intrigued with leadership in business and in its broader application in life. I believe authentic leadership, at every level of business or society and personally, to be the main catalyst of behaviour, achievement and fulfillment.
I read widely on the topic and collect memes (pronounced like dreams) wherever I find them. Memes are an idea, behavior or style that spreads from person to person within a culture. I'm also a supporter of the power of storytelling in business and plan to merge my collected ideas on leadership with creating short thoughtful stories and share these with interested people on this blog.
I follow a few related blogs and at the outset declare that not many of these memes are original but are collected from many different sources, blogs, thought leaders and inspirational writers. Without them necessarily knowing it, I have a large personal board of directors that I draw inspiration from. To name a few my wife Megan, our incredible children, my late father David, Dr Dorian Haarhoff and Graham Williams from the Halo and the Noose fame, Clem Sunter, Seth Godin, Robin Sharma and many other colleagues and friends.
I'm new to blogging and look forward to learning and becoming acquianted with this medium and trust you will enjoy my memes.
Sharing stories, Deon

The two women arrested over the weekend for allegedly assaulting a pregnant woman were not the only ones charged in the incident, according to the Taunton Police Department.
The two women arrested over the weekend for allegedly assaulting a pregnant woman were not the only ones charged in the incident, according to the Taunton Police Department.
Further investigation led to charges filed against Marla Olan, a pregnant 20-year-old living in Taunton, after it was reported to police that she was involved in back and forth pushing and slapping before being punched in the face by another woman who lived in her Union Street apartment building.
During the fracas, after she was reportedly punched and while bystanders tried to break up the fight, witnesses said Olan broke a Snapple bottle and tried to use the sharp glass as a weapon, according to police.
Earlier it was reported that Kourtney Nesbitt, 20, who lives at the Union Street apartment building, and Valine Nesbitt, 22, of 28 Odd St., Fall River, were each arrested on Sunday. The two sisters were arraigned on Monday on charges of aggravated assault and battery for allegedly attacking the pregnant Olan.
The Nesbitts allegedly attacked Olan, leaving lacerations on her chest and face. Kourtney Nesbitt admitted in a statement to police that she punched Olan, who she called "the pregnant lady," with a closed fist "clearly in the face."
Witnesses on both ends said the physical altercation was sparked after Kourtney Nesbitt yelled at Olan's son in the driveway of the apartment building, saying he was disrespectful to adults. Valine Nesbitt in a statement to police also admitted to getting into the fight, which took place in the driveway.
Police said that medical treatment was offered but no one accepted it.
Kourtney Nesbitt was released on $100 cash bail and Valine Nesbitt was released on $150, each by the order of Judge David Turcotte. The Nesbitts are due back in court for a Dec. 16 pretrial hearing.
Olan has not yet been arraigned, and will either turn herself into the court or be summonsed through the mail, police said.

When I go for a walk, I invariably run into folks who (a) do not keep to their lane (!); and, (b) are totally immersed in the screen of their smartphone. There are also folks who are lost in music from their iPhones (which is fine), but keep to their lane and are not looking at their smartphones, which is fine.
When I run into these kind of people, I wonder what they do. If going for a walk in a nature reserve or a park means something to an individual, he or she should focus on that activity and not continue to be enslaved by digital devices. If their focus continues to be on their smartphones, then they will lose the advantage of enjoying the natural surroundings while walking or running. The ability to see and imbibe one's surroundings is one of the key benefits of going for a nature walk as compared to the usual gym treadmill run.
The number of youngsters who remain engrossed with their smartphones or keep talking to someone they know over their phones, surprises me. They are all completely oblivious to their surroundings and are taken in by someone at a distance. They miss out on the glorious sunrise, the lake view which unfolds right in front of them, the wooden walkway which opens up ahead of them, the other folks who run side by side and say "good morning" sometimes. Is it not a pity?
Yes, it is.
I believe that we have all become slaves to our smartphones, and are dependent on the same for news, messages, facebook posting, instagram, chats, email, calendar, facetime, skype, and what not. Since the applications are universal, it does not take much effort from a third party to be able to reach out to an individual walking or jogging in a park. I have often seen people chatting over facetime with their friends or children while I went for a morning walk.
Even older generation is susceptible to this fad, as their children sync up with them better if smartphone and apps on the same are used as a preferred method of communication.
No wonder that social media has become a rage across the teenager and twenty something communities around the world. We are all forced to partake, as no one wishes to be left out.
However, as I alluded to above, it is sometimes better to leave behind the phone and get connected with other people in a fact-to-face fashion. There is more meaning to that kind of interaction, than just a simplistic chat message, or a facebook post. People react more warmly and with lot of candour when there is a direct physical conversation, with eyes locking with each other.
But then the world has changed, right?
It is no longer a simplistic world, it is a much more complex world. There is no time for a casual sit-down coffee chat, which is more healthy and open.
Well, we have to deal with the new world for sure, but let us make an attempt to do what we all did in our young age – go to a park, run around, swing on the swing, laugh, and interact with other kids or people around. Don't keep looking at your phone all the time. Sometimes, it is better to leave the phone behind at home, which is what my wife does all the time when we go for a joint walk.
It is infinitely better to have a face-to-face conversation with a continuous eye-lock. Think about it, and you will realise how much you miss it these days – whether with your spouse, friend, relative, or office colleague. Everybody seems to be so highly "automated"!!!
Let us go back in time. And see how much more meaningful life was.

Conquering the Thames
26th June: Kemble (the source) to Cricklade
12 miles
As the "Thames Walk" sign beckoned me out of Kemble station towards the start of today's walk, I had two thoughts in my mind — one of excitement and one of trepidation. Standing near the source of the Thames, I knew the prospect of finishing my Thames Path journey was becoming very real. I had only the segment from the source to Newbridge left to complete. However, not having done any walking for 2 months, I also realised this was not going to be a walk in the park. I was about to cover just under 40 miles in 3 days.
From the station, skipping the official source, I took the Wysis Way footpath to join the Thames. (Sze Kiu and I did incidentally walk the start of the Wysis Way when we climbed up to Kymin from Monmouth Bridge in March — here I was, 55 miles away, at the end of the Wysis Way) My first sight of the river was of just a pool of water gathering near a small tunnel opening.
I followed the river to reach Ewen, coming across a few people who appeared to be partaking in some sort of a running/orienteering competition. At this point, the Thames is still very much an "infant" Thames. It was pretty weird to see that the mighty Thames which had shaped the culture and commerce of London and many other towns and cities downstream was nothing but a gurgling stream at the back of someone's house. Here the water was shallow and pristine.
It took me some time to get into a proper walking rhythm, but soon I reached the intriguing Lower Mill Estate. The estate was filled with new-build holiday homes in various styles, from Victorian cottages to Nordic modern houses. I even spotted a house with what I would assume to be faked pebbledash rendering! It reminded me of a smaller, but wackier version of Prince Charles's Poundbury.
According to the map, the path at this spot was meant to be flanked by huge lakes (part of the Cotswold Water Park), however if you are expecting Norfolk Broads-style walking, you would be disappointed. For most of the way, one could only catch glimpses of the lakes as the walk followed a enclosed path leading to Ashton Keynes, which itself was a nice but somewhat unremarkable village.
Beyond Ashton Keynes, the walk carried on through the rest of the Cotswold Water Park to reach North Meadow in Cricklade. However, before that, I had a few obstacles to overcome. While the walk so far had been nothing but mud and puddles, the Thames Path at this point was almost turning into a swamp. I had to take either massive detours or tiptop on tiny grassy lumps to make progress. At one point, there was a swan chilling in a pool of water, which would certainly have jeered at my clumsy manoeuvres, if it had been able to speak. In the end, I was only too glad to see that my leather walking boots lived up to their expectation and my feet remained dry.
After such struggle, having to cross the meadow to reach Cricklade felt very much like a chore. My only interest at this point was to finish the walk, until suddenly I looked around and realised how beautiful North Meadow was— a lush canvas dotted with blues, yellows and whites. It is far too easy to lose sight of the beauty around you when you are pre-occupied with reaching the destination, the end-goal. After all, this is why I like walking — being able to slow down, and to appreciate the world that is around you.
Luckily, I made it to Cricklade before it started to rain. But, unluckily, I managed to just miss the 51A bus to Swindon, where I was staying for the night. As a result, I had to wait 2 hours for the next one. How much I love the Sunday bus timetable! And of course, being a Sunday, nothing was open in Cricklade.
27th June: Cricklade to Lechlade
11 miles
I could conveniently travel to the start and end of this walk from Swindon, so today I set off with a lighter backpack, having left most items behind in Swindon. Also, today's walk was only 11 miles, so it should indeed be a walk in the park — so I thought.
I took the 51A bus back to Cricklade. Unlike the day before, the sun was out to greet me, and Cricklade seemed immensely more appealing with quaint shops and cafes. But it wasn't time to indulge, as I had a mission to complete. I followed the river to an open meadow. Soon the terrain became a little more interesting as it was no longer just flat. (Not surprisingly, inclines are far and few in between along the Thames Path).
After a couple of miles, It suddenly occurred to me that I had been mostly walking on mown grass, as if someone had just taken a heavy-duty lawn-mower along the Thames Path for a spin. And that is exactly what happened, as I next came across a couple of people mowing the Thames Path. Of course, someone somewhere had to cut the grass, but it was just too easy to take things like this for granted. If not for the thousands of volunteers and professionals looking after our countryside, we would simply not be enjoying it. I tipped my hat to them (without physically doing so).
With this positive thought, I rambled on, but I soon realised that I was literally walking along miles of mown lawns, which was not a good idea if you had hayfever. So I suffered all the way until I reached Castle Eaton, where I felt like kissing the tarmac. I took a brief snack-break outside the Red Lion pub, and as soon as I started walking again, I realised my feet were starting to hurt in all sorts of funny places. The concern I had the day before was not unfounded after all. I suddenly became so much more aware of the rough terrain underneath my feet. After a mile of flat tarmac, the path became muddy again before it turned into a stony and uneven footpath, which did nothing to soothe my pain, as the Thames Path veered way from the river to reach Upper Ingleham.
I had previously read about the following mile which would involve walking on a narrow grass verge along the busy 60-mph A361 from Upper Ingleham to Inglesham village, but I had decided it was not going to a big deal. Now, standing on my sore feet in front of an official Thames Path notice telling me to either call a taxi or flag down a bus, I was starting to wonder whether I should just follow the advice. And why was I not surprised to find that taxis would not be available for another few hours, and the next bus would not arrive until much later? So, with much reluctance, I started to embark on the most awful and certainly most suicidal mile of the Thames Path. After 20 minutes of imagining myself being in various Bear Gryll scenarios involving deserts, rainforests and dreadful creatures, I finally made it alive to Inglesham village. There was supposed to be a Saxon church (St John the Baptist), but I was in no mood to pay it a visit.
Carrying on, I was very happy to see first the river again, and then the church spire of Lechlade. The river here suddenly became wide, and there were all sorts of boats moored to the towpath. This is officially the furthest navigable part of the Thames upstream. Lechlade has a handsome stone bridge, and compared with Cricklade, Lechlade seemed a whole lot posher. I even had a choice of two places to have a flat-white before I caught bus 74 back to Swindon.
My feet were hurting too much to carry on tomorrow, and the weather forecast was looking terrible. My aim to complete the last stage of my Thames Path was not to be. I would go back to London tomorrow.
To add insult to injury, the 74 bus travelled down A361, whizzing past Upper Inglesham just after 2 minutes of setting off from Lechlade Market Square.
This has been a strangely humbling experience, and I will look to come back and conquer the last 16 miles before long!

A MAJOR flaw in legislation could allow would-be refugees to repeatedly apply for asylum in a succession of different European Union countries.
The loophole, which is of potential benefit to hundreds of asylum seekers, allows a person to be readmitted to the Irish asylum system if they evade what's known as a "transfer order".
Under current arrangements, a person's asylum claim must be heard in the EU country where they first claim asylum. However, a case currently being dealt with by the Department of Justice has exposed a major failing in the legislation, one which could potentially delay the deportation process for years.
The person involved – who is believed to be an African national – arrived in Ireland in April of 2006 and applied for asylum here.

Design for San Diego (D4SD) is a combined effort to solve complex city problems through design thinking and crowdsourcing, led by the UC San Diego Design Lab—with support from the National Science Foundation, Design Forward Alliance and SCALE SD. The D4SD processes for discovery, ideation, prototyping and for implementing solutions through structured feedback was inspired by human-centered design research and crowdsourcing systems. Through this open civics approach, we hope to create opportunities for government, academia, and industry to collaboratively design innovative civic solutions.
D4SD comprises an interdisciplinary group of designers, researchers, and developers led by UC San Diego professor, Steven Dow. By combining our team's diverse talents in computer science, cognitive science, and interaction design, we have worked tirelessly to create a website and discussion platform, to provide educational resources on design and technology, and to partner with SCALE SD and the Design Forward Alliance to host a series of exciting events.
D4SD strives to create a platform that demonstrates the value of human-centered design and produces solutions that could incubate into companies or longer-term projects that foster economic activity in the City of San Diego and beyond.
Postdoctoral fellow Narges Mahyar and PhD student Brian McInnis are leading research on this project. Narges is interested in extending crowdsourcing technologies to engage the public in complex civic processes. Her research investigates how a mix of online technologies and traditional face-to-face engagement approaches can support new forms of collective innovation for local issues. Brian explores how to use semi-automated moderation methods to improve online forums for civic discussion and idea generation.
All of us have the common goal of making this first ever city-wide design challenge a raving success for both the city and our research, but most of all for the residents of San Diego!
Summer 2017 team: Alejandro Panduro, Allison Endo, Andrew Dennis, Brandon Hong, Brian McInnis, Echo Ma, Gabriel Amoako, Joseph Le, Lauren Liu, Michael James, Michelle Ng, Nancy Zhang, Nanna Inie, Narges Mahyar, Reggie Wu, Sanika Moharana, Shawn Kang, Yikun Huang, Yujin Cho, and Yutong Zhang.
Spring 2017 team: Alejandro Panduro, Ariel Weingarten, Alvin Ho, Anna Le, Catherine Kim, Chris Lim, Cody Pham, David Luu, Diana Nguyen, Donna Yee, Eric Richards, Eric Tseng, Gobind Sethi, Grant Chinn, Joanne Cho, Joseph Le, Karen Ma, Karthik Komatinei, Lauren Gong, Lauren Liu, Mai Eguchi, Nancy Zheng, Narges Mahyar, Qinzhuo Gong, Sanika Moharana, Tara Nejad, and Susan Lee.
Special thanks Michele Morris and Don Norman in the UC San Diego's Design Lab, and to our partners at Design Forward Alliance (Scott Robinson, James White, and Bobby Buchanan), SCALE SD (Daniel Obodovski, Greg Hoover, Marc Bielas, Morgan Brass and Sarah Hernholm), and Charles Chamberlayne, Inga Kiderra, and Tiffany Fox for their PR expertise.
D4SD also wants to acknowledge the early need finding efforts by UC San Diego undergraduates in DSGN100 who surveyed residents, attended local meetups with city and community leaders, and conducted targeted interviews. Their efforts led to important insights that helped us understand the city's unique mobility needs.
Reach out to us at email@example.com to give us feedback on the site or to share ideas or problems related to mobility in San Diego.

Shower curtains are very necessary unless you have a shower screen. They might seem unnecessary, but they not only have lots of functions but also add style to your shower. You can make decor of your bathroom appealing and magnificent with the right shower curtain. Therefore, if you are thinking about renovating your shower or making a new one, you must consider having a shower curtain. Curtains are available in different sizes, textures, and styles; so you can choose a right one based on your bathroom accessories and theme.
Before moving towards different types of shower curtains, let's look at some of the benefits they offer.
Benefits of Shower Curtains
It is important to look at the benefits of any particular thing before buying. Same goes for the curtains. Some people think that shower curtains just make your shower look better and have no advantage other than that. Well, that's a complete misconception. So let's start exploring the advantages together.
Increased Privacy
If you live in a joint family and share bathroom with other family members, there is a possibility that someone comes in while you are in the shower. And if you have kids in the house, the possibility multiplies. So, to save yourself from embarrassment, the shower curtain is a must-have item. Moreover, the remaining portion of the bathroom can be accessed if you have a solid curtain.
Lower Cost
As we have discussed that privacy is very important, some people might say that shower door can be used to increase privacy instead of shower curtain. Ofcourse, doors can be used, but they are very expensive.On the other hand, shower curtains are comparatively cheaper. And if you are on a tight budget, the curtain will suit you more than the door.
Style Flexibility
You can get shower curtain in almost any style. Whether you want a simple or fancy curtain, you can get it, and you can always get a curtain which enhances your bathroom theme.
Absorb Water
Shower curtains can absorb the water and help to keep the water off of the floor. If you don't want your floor to get wet, you must have a shower curtain.
How to Choose the Shower Curtain
You should consider the following things before you choose a curtain for your bathroom.
Material of the Shower Curtain
You can find shower curtains made up of different materials. But you should know before buying that which one works best for you.
- Cotton Curtains
Cotton curtains are costly, but they perform better than any other material. They can absorb moisture, and the best part is that you can wash them easily. Moreover, cotton curtain looks good and add style to your shower.
- Organic Curtains
Organic curtains are mostly made up of Hemp—cannabis sativa plant—and are environment-friendly. The amount of pesticide used in the creation process in less than the cotton curtains. These curtains are very strong and last long. However, these curtains are very hard to maintain and deteriorate if left wet.
- Synthetic Curtains
Synthetic shower curtains are very affordable as compared to the other materials. They don't require much maintenance and posses water repellent properties. These are made up of polyester, nylon, or vinyl.
Style of the Shower Curtain
- Fancy Curtains
Fancy or decorative curtains are very beautiful and enhance the interior of your bathroom. They are available in different texture and colors. If you want to design your bathroom, you must go for these curtains. However, these curtains require much more maintenance than simple curtains and are bit expansive too.
- Solid Color Curtains
If you don't like maintenance and want durable and long lasting curtains, you must go for these curtains. They are cheap as compared to the fancy curtains and also long last.
Size of the Shower Curtain
You must measure the size of your shower to get the most suitable curtain. If you have a large shower space, go for an extra wide shower curtain.
Shower curtains can drasticallychange the décor of your bathroom from mediocre to excellent. Availability of curtains in a different size, color, and pattern allows you to choose from the vast variety, and make decorations as per your interest.

Sure, I'm great with my Twitter friends (well, most of them). But that's mainly because they're always there, and I just need to log in to talk to them. And now that I have my iPhone, I can do that pretty much anywhere. Or at least when I can get a connection.
We don't even need to be "there" at the same time. One of us can say something at one time, and the other can reply whenever it's convenient. Conversations can go on for days—especially the way I type.
But I have great friends I met long before I joined Twitter, and while I treasure their friendships just as much if not more, we don't get together anywhere near as often. It's as if it all gets too hard—diaries to coordinate, restaurants to book, GPSs to program, kids to pack for (or babysitters to book), traffic to navigate.
(Mind you, the scariest part of the whole thing is probably the "How long has it been?" calculations that need working out for when we finally do get together.)
Even phone calls seem to be put in the too-hard basket. Admittedly by the time we get everyone fed, and then our son bathed and put to bed it can be quite late. But that's no excuse.
And I hate myself for it.
Don't get me wrong. I still want to stay connected with the people I've met on Twitter. But I also want to reconnect with those people in my life I haven't talked to lately.
(What's interesting is I now have friends in real life that I would never have met if it hadn't been for Twitter.)
So to those of you I know who aren't on Twitter, I'm sorry. Please don't think I value your friendship any less. It's just that getting together in the real world is slightly more complicated.
But I definitely want to stay in touch. Losing a friend on Twitter is bad enough, but losing a friend in real life is far worse. So don't be surprised if I give you a call soon to try and arrange a lunch, or a dinner, or maybe even just to catch up over the phone.
I'll even try to work out the answer to the "How long has it been?" question for you.

Disregard everything about the last two. This is not the last two. Disregard what Skoch may say about this if he's against this.
Here's how it's going down: there will be no delays, there will be no bullshitting around. This is straight-up the best you will ever see.
BUT THE JUDGING AND ROUNDS WILL GO DIFFERENTLY: this will be like those fancy sports things. Skoch says this is called Round Robin, but fuck what he says, I'm calling this Click Click Boom, naming it after the song that I'm listening to at the moment for the hell of it.
So for Click Click Boom, I pair up each person with someone else. It'll be randomized, but everyone will face everyone probably twice. So even if you lose versus MWH's cheating, then don't worry, you won't be knocked out. At least not until the "playoffs" of the UBtT:tT, where the top winners will face off. I'll figure what to do specifically with that. I may have a losers bracket so the losers don't feel bad and have something to waste their time.
