Really like the look of this film. A genetic anomaly allows a young man to teleport himself anywhere. He discovers this gift has existed for centuries and finds himself in a war that has been raging for thousands of years between “Jumpers” and those who have sworn to kill them. Only thing is we have… Continue reading

Reading Al Gores Nobel lecture he gave when he received the prize just brings it home to you how different the world would be today had he become president. There is no doubt that we would be much further ahead in combating climate change as yet again the Bush administration fails to agree to anything… Continue reading

Good day today. We met up with the Corkys and went for a splendid hike along the railway path in Sudbury. It was one of my favourite weather days, a lovely clear day and really cold. The kids enjoyed it, they snoozed pretty much all the way in their cosy carriers! After the walk we… Continue reading

Fascinating article on the origin of the moon and the effect it has on the earth. Particularly interesting is the effect the moon has on the oceanic tides and how this effects our weather and also how the moon has been a stabilising factor on the axis of rotation of the earth. Continue reading

Its been ok this week but it’s felt really weird. After having a sort of routine at home for the last three weeks and then returning to work on Monday and sort of going back to reality I felt really lost and confused. I really missed my girls on Monday but as the week has… Continue reading

I just love the narration on this amazing film about a guy who maintains high voltage power lines, I could listen to his voice all day. “I don’t give two hoots and a holler about flying inside a helicopter, put me outside that’s where I wanna be, on a magic carpet.” Continue reading
