the deal with iran is 95% done but unfortunately it appears one of zeno's paradoxes has entered into the negotiations
"For cities hoping to encourage more people to leave the car at home for shorter trips: build safe infrastructure, connect it to the places people actually need to go, and make active transportation an easy choice rather than a brave one."
It's not hard. The UK gets it!
Gina looking at buying ACM. This would be grim, but the payoff would be Gina owns the Canberra Times, and that would be so extremely funny, I think it's worth it.

Board game weekend, living the dream. Three sessions:
- Dune Imperium (my mate always wins but I came close)
- Carcassonne with an eager six and nine year old and their parents,
- And then some classic Knizia: Ra,and then Tigris and Euphrates (shown).
I know it may not feel it - because well... winter - but winter this year really have been crazy hot in the south east. Charts for Melbourne, Sydney and Hobart below.
And it's only likely to get hotter from here, but for the rest of this year and for the rest of the century.
Pakistan now saying deal imminent:
- strait opened
- sanctions lifted
- 60 day nuclear talks
US wins nothing they didn't already have.
Israel says it doesn't apply to their bombings.
Even the current ceasefire wasn't one, bombing each other this week.
Truly not over.
