Live weather reports from my garden are now available to view in the weather station.
Brilliant Christmas present. Would you believe, it dropped to -5.2 degrees Celsius one night. Historical graphs and charts showing weather for the last few days can be seen here.

The yellow dot pattern secretly printed onto every one of my documents. Viewed under blue light this dot pattern from an HP colour laser jet appears black. Apparently, each pattern is unique to the machine and encodes it's model and serial number.
I've illuminated this printout using the overpowering blue LED of an Aldi Tevion mini amplified speaker system.
I hope they put all this money to good use. There are so many interesting ways to promote the idea, buses are just the beginning.
"The Atheist Bus Campaign launches today, Tuesday October 21. With your support, we hope to raise £5,500 to run 30 buses across the capital for four weeks with the slogan: “There’s probably no God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life.” Donate online now!
Professor Richard Dawkins, bestselling author of The God Delusion, is officially supporting the Atheist Bus Campaign, and has generously agreed to match all donations up to a maximum of £5,500, giving us a total of £11,000 if we reach the full amount – enough for a much bigger campaign. The British Humanist Association have kindly agreed to administer all donations."

A sad story of greed, bad investment and buying flats off plan at the height of a booming property market.
One flat,
Buy to let.
It's going cheap. [How much?]
Only seven guineas.
That -- or thereabouts.
Small flat...
Rather pale...
From lack of capital,
Feed him gruel dinners,
Stop him getting repossessed.
If I should say it wasn't very greedy...
I could not, I'd be telling you a tale.
One flat,
Buy to let.
Come take a peep.
Have you ever seen as
Nice
A flat
For sale.

"Patients who go for obesity surgery abroad are being exposed to unnecessary risk because of inappropriate surgery." warns the BBC in this exclusive investigation
"One woman, too slim for NHS treatment, was given surgery privately in Belgium.
She developed problems, and, unable to contact her surgeon, turned to the NHS for emergency care. Jilly Trella cannot eat cake, and potatoes, and she has difficulty swallowing doughy foods. That is because she has had obesity surgery. A band has been fitted
around the top of her stomach so she physically can't eat more than a
few mouthfuls at a time."
Hang on, fatties shouldn't be eating cake. A device that stops fatties from eating cake is perfect. What is she complaining about.
Taken at the beginning of September 2008. This year looks like being a bumper crop of Conference pears. A fruity photo using Fujichrome Velvia100 and an old Praktica MTL3.

The wonderful new (newly acquired at least, they don't make this kind of thing any more) Minolta DiMAGE Scan Elite 5400 is bringing my old 35mm film back to life. The scans from these old negs are amazing compared to the faded photo prints.
Next project, find some exposed 35mm film and modify it into a 110 negative carrier.
