Redhead74 Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 I got woken up by 50 mph gusts of wind kicking shit around. Wind is a homo.I fucking hate wind. It's been horrendous around my neck of the woods lately, although October is notoriously windy, so completely explainable really. But really, 1 day of it and I've had enough. After 2 or 3 weeks of it and I'm feeling a bit psycho. I almost couldn't get out of my car the other day, I had to use my hands and feet against the door to get out.

Redhead74 Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Yesterday I thought I was in the UK. It was 27 degrees Celsius (80F) and I walked my dog along the beach and heard more British accents than I heard Australian or Russian (lots of Russians for some reason are always walking along the beach ). It seems every Brit in Melbourne was out and about enjoying the sunshine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

axlfan88 Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Charles Wohlforth wrote recently a great book about global warming, The Whale and the Supercomputer :Wohlforth traveled to Alaska in 2002 to track people who conduct climate research. In this surprisingly intimate presentation, in which he gives the life stories of most of the people he interviews, he accompanies one group of scientists on a Nome-to-Barrow transect to measure winter snowpack, and he talks to climate modelers, glaciologists, entomologists, and biologists at their various research stations on the Arctic coast or in the interior.Often itinerants from the lower 48, the scientists have a data-oriented outlook that contrasts with that of the Inupiat, the indigenous people of Alaska's North Slope. The contrast is nuanced and not succinctly definable, however. Although the Inupiat leaders were wary of him as an outsider, Wohlforth accompanied them on their tradition-keeping hunts for bowhead whales, a legal exception to the worldwide prohibition on whale hunting. En route, he transmits their experiences of climate warming either through observation of seascape or ancestral memory, which effectively convey the Inupiat's impression of the changes around them. Wohlforth's detailed, perceptive work will immediately engage readers interested in environmentalism. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New Zealand's hoarding them all! It's interesting, you're working with fashion, one of my friends who's out there did fabrics and textiles at University, has done extremely well and now seems to have a full time job in fabrics out in Melbourne. Maybe you'll cross paths some day . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a secondary passion for printed textiles so I imagine we would have a lot in common. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
