May Ball Last Weekend
This last weekend we had May Ball. It’s basically Medicine’s excuse to get dressed up and party. It was like a wedding, where nobody got married and we all knew each other. I have a few shots from around the tables.

I’m just having a coffee in the kitchen and reading the news, as I do from time to time. An article popped out at me and I thought I would put it here. People sometimes don’t really understand why I don’t like Microsoft, so this is a little tidbit of stuff that makes me think that way.
The context is, last night I booted to Linux on my laptop and clicked the update button, to update to the new Ubuntu I talked about here. I kinda tossed and turned thinking I might be risking my working install of everything else. It probably took a couple hours to do, but thats only because it would have taken that long to download the 750 MB of stuff it needed to update. In the morning, I woke up to one dialogue box saying click to reboot and finish update. It worked perfectly. Wireless card works now, everything, and all my customizations from the other install remain. Perfect.
Not so perfect for M$ business customers who found that updates that were forced on their systems automatically CORRUPTED their business data. Good luck getting that back, I hope it doesn’t cost you too much time, money and productivity! It’s called work for a reason! Thanks Redmond.
Read the article here. That’s a little bit why I don’t like M$. Who needs that? [Read more →]
Our apartment is perfectly positioned, according to me. It runs east and west, with our bedrooms on the east side, with large windows and sliding glass doors and separate balconies. Then on the west side is our kitchen and living room, and another balcony. It’s here that we get to spend the evening and watch the sunset every night. Some are quite flashy, and some are just a little bit of hazy yellow in a perfectly clear sky before the sun drops away over the outback. The best of them make me wish I had captured them, so I have actually tried a couple times. It’s hard to know when they’re going to really light up, but this one is alright. It’s a lot longer than the sunset itself, but I thought the time lapse of the people running about was interesting too.
