I have never been that Anti Medic. Anti-Certain-Medics-In-Particular maybe, but i could see the difference betwen the trees and the forest.
Doc Crippen caught my eye today.
Imperial College, the Imperial College, really is offering a PhD in
“Gender-related differences and game-based learning for virtual patients in Second Life.”
Some people may be either more organised than me, or under the impression that I am not organised. For example, I have been asked a number of times where the gift list for my forthcoming wedding is. It has always been planned to be (at least in part) at John Lewis, and back on January 23rd it was registered, the number will be 350102.
You could try to go to the John lewis website to buy something. Emphasis on try as you will see it is not open till 11th April. That’s not me sabotaging anyone’s effort to buy stuff, that’s just the way it works.
However, all is not lost. You could instead contact Lamb’s of Stamford. You could go and visit them in person or you could give them a call and buy over the phone if you wish.
Why? Partly to support a local shop – and also because they stock what we want (and certainly what I want the most), crockery from Denby’s Jet range (the black stuff, not the stripes, dots, or grey), cookware from Le Creuset, and we found some glasses we liked too.
And then when we get back from our honeymoon it can all be delivered….
of course, no one is restricted to the above items, the only thing I would prefer to avoid is vouchers… cash towards our honeymoon would be preferred… but people can do what they like, and what ever they do will be appreciated. After all, I am more bothered about people actually being there on the day!
I wonder if a Nokia 6300i with wi-fi ability will let me use hot spots in say McDonalds, or on National Express trains for a bit of light browsing…. Anyone know?
It is now noted that there are two Chatsworth Avenues on the flyde coast. One in Blackpool, and the other in Fleetwood. Luckily it is only 12 minutes from the one to the other.
Anyone got suggestions of a Windows or web app (even one i can run on my own webspace) that would help in tracking what I have been doing with my time during the day?
partially just to keep track of what I am doing, partly to assist in filling in time sheets…
I’m used to describing to people where I live as "Where Southmoor Hospital used to be" and this is quite true.
Idly using google images for Hemsworth to see what would come up, as I was producing a Hemsworth page on the openstreetmap wiki, and in doing so, I discovered that we live on the site of the former Hemsworth workhouse, infact the reamining buildings from what i thought was the hospital actually date to the workhouse.
With half a mind on future travels around Europe, I was wondering if there was an easy way to tag photos taken with my digital camera (currently a well worn Olympus Mju 400 Digital Camera
A bit of a search via google, resulted in discovering Prune which could take a track from my GPS, and a bunch of photos, then having told the software where on the track one photos was taken, it could work out the time difference between GPS and camera, and then show where on the track all the photos should be.
But it needs a plug-in called exiftool to actually save the files with the right EXIF content in the file. I struggled momentarily to install it, before deciding the correct thing to do is download the zip file for exiftool, and then extract it to c:/WINDOWS then removing the "(-k)" from the resultant file’s name.
Prune could then save the files with the exif tags derived from the GPS track, backing up the image files as it went.
At the time of typing, there are only a couple of photos that I have put up on flicker with geocoding, but it seems to work…
I have just been looking at AndyA‘s cycle map that he is always going on about (though I am about to say, i can see his point…)
and looking here just doesn’t look like i think it should.
I think I will fix it.
I *have* just been shopping at Amazon
So here is the resolution, I will be taking my new toy out and a bout in the local area, on foot, and on bike, and put the data into the open street map project, and the open cycle map when its a cycle route…
That’s better than saying my new year’s resolution is to get fit.
I don’t really do coffee but when I do, its just “white, 2″ like I drink my tea. NATO.
I used “Nato” as my preference, and then had a conversation with the other party about other terms used. I had heard of a Julie (White, None) but not a Whoopie (Black, None) But Oh My Gosh, there is a genuine ISO Standard for making tea. wow.
I don;t even know why I looked. But typing “musicone” into Google resulted in a link the the M1Live website. And instead of saying how it was nice whilst it lasted, it said it was back.
Wow.
Wonder if it will sound so good now… one way to find out.
