I'm an Australian, based in the Washington, DC, area of the United States. I spend a lot of time there with Jasmine, Australia's best-known speedsolver of the Rubik's Cube. Prior to the US, Jasmine and I were based in London, UK. We have also lived previously in the United States and Australia. I have worked for an Australian business rules and compliance company since 1999 in Australia, the US and the UK. I have also lectured in IT and Law related topics at King's College, London, and at The Australian National University. I have some more information and a list of publications available (pop-up window).

Sun, 22 May 2005 [Australian eastern time] [/Credit where it's due] permanent link I just had a look at Jasmine's Beginner Solution to the Rubik's Cube. I still feel like I should make the effort to learn her cube solution properly at some point (I can only partially solve the cube at present). I was impressed to see that Jasmine has had 53,909 hits to the Beginner's Solution... so many cubers! [/United Kingdom] permanent link
Abandoned stations of the London Underground
Jasmine, Doug (who was visiting Jasmine and me for the weekend from Cambridge) and I had a discussion earlier today (Sunday, 22 May, UK time) about abandoned stations on the London Underground rail network. After Doug left us to return to Cambridge, I found this interesting website on the topic of abandoned stations. [/United Kingdom] permanent link Inspired (well, I was anyway) by the news that 30% of London is occupied by green space, Jasmine and I went for a walk to Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens today. The gardens there are looking much better than a few months ago -- because now there are leaves! I am also enjoying the late sunlight here. Sunset today (Sunday, 22 May, in the UK) is not till 8:54 p.m. And although there are lots of grey patches during the day, there are also some good patches of sun. |
