  1. Restarting Apple Mail fixes my Notes synchronization problem with the iPhone. Repeat every couple of days.
  2. Replaced stolen electric mower with a manual reel mower. Requires a bit more effort, but works quite well and is much quieter.
  3. Lounging by the kiddie pool after a walk through the park.
  4. Registered for Toronto Hydro's peaksaver program. My air conditioner is going to join the semi-smart grid and reduce peak load.
  5. @pragprog This is a great start. I enjoyed the peek into your business process, the discussion of eBooks, and the Clojure teaser.
  6. http://www.gigatonthrowdown... identifies building efficiency as the lowest cost pathway to achieve 1-gigaton CO2e reduction by 2020.
  7. @DougSaunders Well done. I enjoyed this article. Examining our national myths is brave and important.
  8. Bizarre. Someone broke into our garage & stole the landmower, leaving behind more valuable things. Didn't even take the electrical cord.

  13. Bit late to this, but http://johnaugust.com/variant is great and well worth $1.
  14. Emma starts school in Sept. I think seamless integration of childcare & education is a great idea. http://bit.ly/IuMLY via @globeandmail
  15. Perhaps my last academic paper? http://bit.ly/32P2B Two manuscripts and several datasets left, but no resources to do anything with them.
  16. Finished "To Rule the Waves". Fantastic, sweeping book. But, a sad ending for centuries of British Royal Navy tradition & excellence.
  17. 770,000 green jobs in the US, growing at 9%/year. This is progress! http://bit.ly/8QbqS
  18. @toddhouston I'm sure Charlie could apply some creative destruction that justified a new iPhone.
  19. Photo: I’ve been curious about this abandoned bank on Yonge Street. Jonathan Castellino has some great... http://tumblr.com/xlg206pmb
  20. An intriguing summary in Spacing Toronto of Jan Gehl’s one stone-five birds strategy for creating vibrant public space http://bit.ly/TlDvB
