There is a young artist, Dominik Louda, showing now at the Kerstin Engholm Gallery in Vienna who also uses architectural elements in his paintings. I like how his spaces are almost real, recognisable yet non-existant, and that they are constructed of architectural planes more than being actual architectural spaces. The exhibition runs only until May 5th so I hope to still make it there this week!
Last week I stopped by Song and saw this couch table which in turn has a similar color scheme as the previous painting which I so much like by Dominik Louda. The table is by Dutch designer Piet Hein Eek.

Alicia Keys couldn't express emotions
Alicia Keys has always struggled to be open about her emotions when she's felt low.
STUMBLE SHARE SHARE TWEET PIN
Alicia Keys struggled to express herself when she felt "weak".
Alicia Keys covers Marie Claire (Photo @yutsai88)
The 'Best of Me' singer - who has sons Egypt, 11, and Genesis, six, with husband Swizz Beatz - has found it "hard" to open up about how she felt, particularly in low moments and has always insisted she is "fine", even when she knew she wasn't.
She told the new issue of Britain's Marie Claire magazine: "It was very hard for me to express times I've felt weak. If I felt scared, or like I wasn't gonna be good at something. I never wanted to give people the opportunity to prey on my emotions, so I always hid them. I never felt comfortable crying in front of people. I would [say] I'm fine when I'm not fine."
Alicia reached "breaking point" during a "life-changing trip" to Egypt in 2003 and she could no longer keep her feelings inside.
She said: "I reached a breaking point. I was so fully, squarely in this broken place that I couldn't even armour up or hide it anymore. I would walk around with tears just pouring out of my eyes – I couldn't hold it. It was a flood and it just could not be stopped any longer."
The trip gave the 40-year-old star a new perspective on her life and career and made her take control of her affairs.
She said: "I was carrying a lot of people who didn't deserve to be carried. I decided to become more conscious of my business and the people who are part of it, and the percentages that are taken [too].
"I was able to start making new choices and understand what parts of my life were bothering me; what parts were feeling too heavy [or] toxic. When you go so fast, you don't have a chance to identify those things."
Alicia also admitted she found herself doing things she was ultimately uncomfortable with in photoshoots in the past, although she insisted the coercion was always subtle.
She said: "It's not like, 'Take your clothes off right now.' It's like they put the bed or couch in there and then, well, you're on the couch. And it's like, 'So, why don't you take off something?' And you think well, OK, I am on the couch, so why not?… And the next thing you know, you're posing in a way that you're like, wait a minute, how did I get here? This is not what I planned on doing today."

At 5:30 the moon was still super bright. I was feeling extra tired this morning and I snoozed my alarm twice. But then I remembered it was 26.5 miles until Elk Lake resort where there was real food. I don't want to eat any of the food in my bag. I just want real food.
So I was up and on the trail by 6:20. The trail consisted of that fine volcanic dust which is like walking through sand, it's tough and slow going. The dust gets everywhere. It's coated everything and there is a layer coating my lungs, nose and throat. I think that's why I feel like I have an unquenchable thirst.
I was able to tell a few nobos that they would find Coppertone at the pass. I got some lovely cold water from a stream and drank as much as I could. The trail turned into lava rocks again for a few miles, but the long descent in the coolness of the morning was much easier than climbing up it in the heat like we did last year. The moon was visible for a long time.
I came to a creek and sat down for a bit. I'm just about on my 10 miles in 4 hours schedule and I'm starving today. I had already eaten my cereal bar, cookies and sweets – all before 9am! So I ate my Cheetos, filled up with water and moved on.
It's the weekend I think so there are lots of weekend hikers about. I talk to a few. 'How far are you going?' they ask. I tell them I'm heading to Elk Lake. 'Oh that's really far away'. 'No, it's only 26 miles.' Like that's the most normal thing in the world.
The trail dips in and out of the trees and I walk on, sometimes in a bit of a trance. Just walking. Thinking. Dreaming. Imagining. Wondering.
I see a few nobos but they are definitely getting less. These people will be October finishers. These people like to 'chill hard' I think. These people like to walk along with their music playing out loud.
I sit for a rest a couple of times. I am so hungry today. I eat into tomorrow's supplies, although I think I have more than enough food. I eat a twix and some sour patch kids. I drop a blue kid, the best flavour, but I pick it up and eat it. I have ingested half the trail anyway. A bit more dirt won't kill me.
The trail opens out into a big meadow and I can see 5 or 6 people walking towards me. The trail is busy today. Lots of people walking around the three sisters.
And that's it for views today, the trail goes back into the trees and remains pretty uneventful until I reach the junction for Elk lake. It's a 1.5 mile side trail to get there and I fly down it as quick as I can. At the trail head there is then a half mile road walk to reach the resort. It feels weird walking on a hard flat surface after being on the trail for a week. I make it to the lake and there are a lot of people there. A lot of clean, normal looking people. This is a popular place for residents of Bend to come for the weekend and it was pretty busy. I felt very out of place and a little overwhelmed by the noise especially.
I dump my pack next to a load of other hiker packs and head straight to the restaurant. I see a group of people who look like northbounders. I take a seat outside and order a burger. The menu is limited and expensive. $16 for a burger. But it's a resort and there are no other options so you pay it. I was so hungry I probably would have paid double that anyway. Burgers aren't really my favourite food, but I think I've been craving protein. They had run out of fries so I had to have tortilla chips instead. And I had 2 large glasses of soda. I was nearly satisfied but I had room for an Oreo sandwich ice cream too.
I blow my nose and get a nosebleed. The dust did that.
I bought 3 twixes and some cookies to keep me going over the next couple of days. After an hour and a half it was time to get back to the trail. You can camp here but they charge you $10. Camping on the trail is free! I didn't need a shower as I only had one two days ago. My clothes haven't been washed for 8 days but another couple won't hurt. And they had no wifi. No point staying if there's no wifi.
As I left the restaurant so did the big group of nobos. A guy shouts out "any hikers need a ride to town?" I could have got myself a ride to Bend without trying but I didn't need anything. No one took him up on his offer so I asked him if he would give me a ride back to the trailhead. Save me half a mile of uphill road walking. He did which was excellent! Turns out he hike some of the trail in 2008 and he often comes out here to help out the hikers. He was very gentlemanly and held my pack up, like you would hold up a coat, for me to put on. He told me his trail name but it has slipped my mind.
I hike the 1 mile side trail back to the PCT and I have 2.5 miles to get to a camp spot. I should be there before its dark.
Then hundreds of mosquitos came out of nowhere all on the attack. It didn't matter how fast I walked, they were on me. All over me. Biting me in my hair, through my KT tape and on the backs of my knees. It was the worst 2.5 miles. I was trying to walk, look where I was going and swat mosquitos all at the same time.
I got to the camp spot and a couple of nobos were there watching a video on their phone. They asked if I wanted them to turn it off. Nah. You're alright.
I danced around trying to keep the bugs away as I was putting up my tent. I could feel them biting me. The vicious little bastards. I put my puffy on to try and stop them and I got very hot and sweaty. Eventually I was able to launch myself inside and killed the 10 or so bugs that made it in with me.
I was in and settled by 8:15, just before it got dark. I am so itchy, I take an anti-histamine and hope for the best. I realise I have done a 30 mile day, and I've had a burger, soda and ice cream. What a good day!
That is a good day! Thank you puff puff, I read your blog last year and love that you're blogging again. I know how time consuming it is after your super long days and I appreciate it so I'll be donating to Just a Drop for you. Keep on smiling, laughing, and occasionally crying!
What a great day, Alex! That burger looked delicious. I've been replying to your posts but they don't seem to stick. Just wanted to you know I'm thinking about you! Thanks for taking us along for the hike.
How do you put together such a great entry after walking 25-30 miles a day?! Fantastic photos and great, succinct writing. Thank you for letting us travel along with you!
I've followed your hikes starting with your south to north thru hike last year. Thanks for blogging. I am learning so much. I plan on thru hiking starting in April 2019. I retire in 2018. You are an inspiration. Thank you.
Yea Elk Lake is pricey, but I got the burger too! Thirty miles, yer crushing it! Thanks for the updates on your progress.
Elk Lake was tempting, but last year I was trying to escape a certain group of hikers from Shelter Cove which, shall I politely say, were not my favorite! 🙂 Figured I should just keep on walking to be sure I stayed ahead of them.
Looking at your camping spot, I remember seeing it as I passed by early in the morning. Fun seeing these locations your pictures show again.


A manifesto for a new photo sharing method.
Photography is in a weird spot. For generations, you'd shoot a photo, have your film processed, decide what to make prints of, and that was that. Maybe you'd make a photo book, or contact a gallery to host your works. For most, you'd get your prints back from the lab, and chronicle them away in an album, to show to someone when they came to your home. Since the advent of digital photography, us photographers have looked for a comparable home for our new works. Without your photos needing to be printed, there's no obvious method for sharing the photos you've taken.
Many different services have been created to fill this gap, each with their own strengths and weaknesses, and each missing the purpose and enjoyment found in sharing your photos with those who care to see them.
Perhaps the most widely used of these platforms is Instagram. Instagram became the defacto photography social network around mid-2013, after having launching on Android after having been available on iOS for about a year and a half. The concept was simple. Posting photos with an optional caption to your timeline, which could be found via tags or seen by those who followed you. They also launched with a suite of tools for editing and altering the photos you posted on it, via filters, and for cropping them to squares, which was required for posting at the time the app launched.
I was slow to jump on the Instagram bandwagon, avoiding signing up for a long time, fearing that the focus on filters, sharing, and likes would compromise my work. Of course, this became harder to avoid as time went on, and now Instagram is all but required for serious or aspiring photographers.
I'm very interested in how our vocabulary shapes our ideas, and how the language we use to discuss, interact with, and categorize our worlds change the lens with which we view them. Similarly, systems like Instagram have their own vocabulary, their own toolsets for interacting with the works encountered, which has been revised and updated as the platform has evolved.
Now, the app called Instagram is a stark place. To me, it's clear the sort of work that Instagram and the community it has cultivated flocks to, the sort of photography that meshes well with the unseen curatorial eye of the Algorithm.
There's even a shared stylistic language between these, harboring similar sorts of color palettes, compositions, editing choices, lensing, etc etc. The account Insta_Repeat is a prime showcase of this, collecting photos of the same subjects to make collages of un-originality.
Still, I posted. I posted photos of mine too simply have something to share. I delighted in watching the metrics, my follower count approaching and then surpassing 600, checking in on how many likes each photo garnered. I did not stop to think about why I was posting. I just posted; it was what I was supposed to do.
I stopped writing this to post a photo. I found an image I was proud of, sent it into the void, carrying its tags on its back. I click the button to share it. I see it on the timeline. I feel nothing in particular.
It's an idea that once occurred to me has lingered like a bad taste in my mouth. I'm not such a hedonist that I think everything should be fun or enjoyable, but perhaps voluntary social networks should be. If it wasn't sparking joy, why repeat the same patterns?
I'd like to have a place that feels like a natural extension of my photographic process to share my works. Something as common sense as the postcard-sized prints you got back from the drugstore off your disposable camera when you were a kid. Something that values the photo and not the snapshot, that gives the user the tools and vocabulary to interact with a piece in the method it deserves. For that, something new has to be created.
It would be a place that makes it easy and fun to share your photography; both the casual cellphone photos, and the formal professional photos.
It would value your work, allowing it to be seen in the intended quality and resolution with minimal if any compression.
It would showcase work in the order it was shared.
It would not insert advertisements or sell the data of its users.
It would give the users the tools to interact with others and share their passion in a meaningful way.
It would not hurt anyone, or seek to do anything besides foster community and connections and spread wholesomeness and joy.
I'd like to build a social network that felt like sharing a postcard with a friend in your living room, or with a friend across the globe. It would not be a portfolio or a dump of every photo on your camera roll. It would be a series of intentional, thoughtful moments, pairing a photo with a few sentences, shared to the people you want to see it, only for the joy of sharing something important to you.
I don't have the ability to build something like this, at least not yet, or not alone. However, photography is more ubiquitous in our world than ever before, and we need a good way to share the photos we care about with the people we care about. Let's build the world we'd like to see.

As well as the name of the wider region and a river, Margaret River is also the town at the centre of Western Australia's premier wine region. Located 10 kilometres from the Indian Ocean and positioned on the banks of the Margaret River, the town site is the hub of commerce and community.
Colloquially known as 'Margies', the town sprung from agricultural roots, mostly dairy farming, in the 1920s. Surfers allegedly started to arrive in the region as early as the 1920s, however it wasn't until the 1960s when the region started to gain a reputation with the nomadic surfing community. Around the same time, Dr Gladstone identified the region as a potential premium wine growing region, and shortly after the first commercial vines were planted in 1967. The surfers now had the ability to stay on in the region with casual employment provided at the vineyards. Nowadays, many locals are still employed in the wine industry, and a good proportion of them surf too!
While Margaret River town is located inland, it's just a short 10-minute drive to the coast. Prevelly is a charming seaside settlement, located near the mouth of the Margaret River. Here, the famed Surfers Point is the perfect vantage point for watching the local surfers take on the ocean, especially in Autumn with the world's best surfers compete in the Margaret River Pro, a championship tour event. In total, there's more than 40 breaks around Margaret River, with conditions ranging from powerful reef breaks to fun beach breaks, making it one of the most consistent and scenic surfing destinations in the world.
Impressively, the Margaret River Wine Region produces about 5% of Australia's Wine, but more than 20% of the country's premium wine export. The quality of wine across more than 150 cellar doors is top notch, and the gourmet food offering is just as good. Choose from berries, fudge, preserves, olive oils and a large assortment of gourmet lines. Don't despair if wine isn't your thing though. There's plenty of breweries and distilleries to explore too!
Take a picnic to Rotary Park. There's great barbecue facilities and an old steam engine (named "Kate") built in England in 1889, which is a favourite with families. It is also the entrance to many great walking trails.
Head to the Farmers market on Saturday morning for a coffee and a croissant, or stock up on produce to take back to your accommodation. You'll likely run into a few chefs and plenty of locals.
Tackle one of the epic MTB trails close to town. The Pines trail is one of the best in the south west with lots of technical aspects, while the Wadandi Track is flat and easy.
Take a drive through Boranup Karri Forest. Karri is the third tallest tree in the world and the tall pale barked trees, reaching 60 metres or more, dominate the hilly slopes and valleys. The Boranup Forest seen today is a regrowth forest and is just over 100 years old.
Head underground into one of the six show caves open to the public. You can join a guided tour, or explore on your own. Mammoth Cave is also universally accessible.

THE Mount Lawley Society has delivered a letter to planning minister Rita Saffioti imploring her to preserve the character of Beaufort Street.
Stirling council created a local development plan for the street, following a consultation process so thorough and collaborative it won an award from the Planning Institute of Australia.
But before the plan was signed off by the planning minister's office, key parts were changed by the WA Planning Commission, including rules that developments had to be done in an architectural style sympathetic to the street.
The society was also concerned the WAPC inserted a clause that all new developments on the three kilometre stretc, from Walcott to Salisbury Street be a minimum of two storeys.
Friday's letter asked Ms Safiotti to revert to the original plan, which has support from Maylands Labor MP Lisa Baker and Mt Lawley Labor MP Simon Millman.
"I'm eager to see the heritage and architectural character of our local area protected. I look forward to working with the minister so that we can arrive at an outcome the community is happy with," said Mr Millman.
Society president Paul Collins says it was bizarre that the WAPC had sponsored the award Stirling won for the consultation that led to the plan's creation.

title: 'Kenapa Aku Rasa Berat Badan Aku Naik Walaupun Aku Susah Nak Cari Makan?'
---

Sudah genab satu minggu aku tak dapat makan daging lembu, daging kambing dan daging ayam. Apalagi nasi beriyani. Dalam mimpi pun belum tentu.

<!--more-->
Setiap kali makan tengah hari dan makan malam; menunya sentiasa sama. Ikan, udang, sotong, belut dan ulang semula. Kuantiti lauk pun sedikit. Hanya secebis. Ikan, udang, sotong, belut dan ulang semula. Semuanya terasa kicap manis, kicap masin, kicap masam dan segala macam kicap. Bosan weh!

Waktu-waktu begini, akan terkenang betapa kita semua sebenarnya lemah. Macam mana *Mat Fit* ketagih gam, macam tu juga aku ketagih beriyani gam.

Hujung minggu lepas aku dapat *'obat'*. [EBI Filet-O](http://www.mcdonalds.co.jp/menu/products/hb_10.html?TB_iframe=true&width=730&height=440&modal=true), [Fish-O Filet](http://www.mcdonalds.co.jp/menu/products/hb_11.html?TB_iframe=true&width=730&height=440&modal=true) dan ulang.
Ya. Ulang semula. Kali ini untuk *lunch* dan *dinner*, termasuk *supper*.

Hidup seperti sudah lengkap dan dunia terasa sangat indah selepas itu.

ME4 go mad for literary fun this October with the Roch Lit Fest!
For the RLF, ME4 are producing three literature events (and also a theatre show, as part of Sam's other lit dev project, 17Percent). The events are varied, and range from a walking/writing tour of Rochester, to the launch of our very first proper full-length book, with a healthy dose of our yearly poetry treasure hunt Poetrymon, and a night of new plays by women thrown in for good measure.
On 5 October, see some new writing by women, in 'A night at the theatre', where you will have a chance afterwards to ask some of the writers, cast and director about the process of making theatre.
You can find out more about our events on the ME4 at RLF2013 page.
Or by going to the Rochester Literature Festival website, where you can find out about all of the events scheduled for the 10-day festival, including ME4 regular Roy Smith's 'The Skywatcher investigation', an interactive story game.
This poem was locked out of the Oast House!
For the second year running we played our game of Poetrymon across the 5 Medway towns.
In the day-long poetry treasure hunt, we hoofed it from Chatham to Rainham, Gillingham, then finally Strood and Rochester.
In Poetrymon, ME4Writers make unique, one-off poem cards which are hidden about Medway to celebrate National Poetry Day. Poems were written by Barry Fentiman, Sam Hall, Sarah Jenkin and Roy Smith. The hiders were Sam, Sarah and Barry.
This year the theme for NPD was 'Stars', so a good number of the poems responded to the theme. You can see more about Poetrymon on the website, we will also be adding some more pictures, poems and video to the site. The clues were also posted on Twitter and FaceBook. If you found a poem, we hope that it made your (National Poetry) day!!
National Poetry Day 2012 – tomorrow!
Tomorrow is National Poetry Day and we will be playing our game of Poetrymon around Medway. Do play along if you can! There are some cute poems to find!
On 6 October, National Poetry Day, ME4 Writers played a game called Poetrymon.
After creating about 50 poetry postcards, using all our cutting, glittering and pasting skills, we set out with the intention of infusing Medway with poetry!
Barry Fentiman, Sam Hall, Roy Smith and Tara Moyle provided the poems. Sam, Barry, Tara and Gemma Quinnell provided the foot power.
We have done lots of live literature events and we wanted to get a bit more immersive. Poetrymon was our second game – previously we had made an Audio Walk (written by Roy Smith) as part of our 'Seventh Traveller' project – a series of writings and events inspired by a short story by Dickens.
Poetrymon is a treasure hunt game played around the Medway towns. The prizes are the poem cards themselves – which in themselves are works of art (we hope!) – though the first ten people to email us with a picture of themselves holding a card will also get an ME4 Writers badge.
Cryptic clues were placed on the website throughout the day as several of the writers hid the poems – some in plain sight! We also documented the day in a video film which you can see here.
If you have been lucky enough to find a National Poetry Day Poetrymon card and would like to find out more about the author – you can find out on our Meet the Writers page – where a cunning colour coding system is in place!
You can find poetry in cracks in the wall and under rocks, in nooks and crannies, slipped behind posters, wherever there was a gap that needed filling with a poem.
The 'making of' Poetrymon video is coming soon!

Q: AngularUI Route Resolve Issue when Rejecting Promise I have included my code below. Basically, when I am loading my view, I am using resolve to get some data. In my service, if my promise is rejected - on error - the resolve gets infinitely called. Is there a better way I should be performing this?
(function () {

function AppService($q, $http, $log, $timeout, pageOptionsModel) {

    return {
        getPageOptions: function () {

            var deferred = $q.defer();

            var pageOptions = pageOptionsModel.getPageOptions();

            if (pageOptions === null) {
                $http.get("api/HomeApi/GetPageOptions")
                    .success(function (response) {
                        deferred.resolve(response);
                        $log.info("Successfully retriedved page options from service.");
                    })
                    .error(function (response) {
                        deferred.reject("Error");
                        $log.error("Errored while retrieving page options from service.");
                    });
            }
            else {
                deferred.resolve(pageOptions);
            }

            return deferred.promise;

        }
    }

};

function AppConfig($stateProvider, $urlRouterProvider, $locationProvider) {

    $urlRouterProvider.otherwise("line");

    // Now set up the states
    $stateProvider
        .state('line', {
            url: "/line",
            templateUrl: "app/line/lineTemplate.html",
            controller: "lineController",
            controllerAs: "line",
            resolve: {
                pageOptions: function (appService) {
                    return appService.getPageOptions();
                }
            }
        });

    $locationProvider.html5Mode({
        enabled: true,
        requireBase: false
    });

};

angular.module("app", ["ui.router", "ui.bootstrap", "app.line", "app.modal"])
    .config(AppConfig)
    .factory("appService", AppService);

})();

Here is my Line Controller which never initializes if my promise is rejected.
 (function () {

function LineController($scope, pageOptions) {

    var self = this;

    // INITIALIZE
    self.pageOptions = pageOptions;

};

angular.module("app.line")
    .controller("lineController", LineController);

 })();

Q: Asyncio: legitimate multiple threads with event loops use cases? Granted, given the GIL, classic asyncio design should focus on "single main thread with single event loop" in it. Nonetheless, are there legitimate "multiple threads with multiple event loops" use cases, which bring some architectural or performance advantages over the singular case? Please share.

A: I never compare the performance of using multiple event loop in multiple threads.
As far as I know asynchronous is an event-driven architechture where single event loop is rely on single thread and the running function is this event-loop will wait for the trigger to get their time to run. This would becomes faster than threading (in theory) since we're no longer taking care of resource management (memory, cpu etc).
Threading basically will try to manage the resource in terms to make them run concurrently because its actually switching the resource usage.
But both is proposed to execute the program in parallel even if its not concurrent at a time. and for security, asynchronous is more thread safe since it's in a single thread.

A: Found: one such use case is QEventLoop <-> asyncio.EventLoop "mutual stop-and-go hand-over" pattern in PySide6, when QT event loop stops itself, then allows asyncio event loop to run for a while, then QT event loop is back in control, all the while sharing the same thread.
