Here's my take on the whole thing.... ]]>Shane KellyTech2012-02-07T19:31:05+00:00http://www.shanek54.co.uk/files/18a6e1141b0dc4f7e060d459bc2b40f7-14.php#unique-entry-id-14http://www.shanek54.co.uk/files/18a6e1141b0dc4f7e060d459bc2b40f7-14.php#unique-entry-id-14Apple won't let me run Lion on it, so my move to Lion for my desktop is being held back - who wants to run two versions of my programs etc?

So, in an effort to extend its life, I decided to try Linux on it....

]]>Shane Kellydiet2012-01-04T10:11:25+00:00http://www.shanek54.co.uk/files/27ee6b30749920d67a2774ac7eff6518-11.php#unique-entry-id-11http://www.shanek54.co.uk/files/27ee6b30749920d67a2774ac7eff6518-11.php#unique-entry-id-11
That means that:
- I am likely to be obese (check!)
- I am likely to have high cholesterol (check!)
- I am a good candidate for heart disease (unknown)
- I am likely to have some stomach disorder(s) (check!)
- I will probably have an autoimmune disease or two (check!)

It also means things like I have too much "stuff", I consume more than I need to of the planets resources, and I am probably greedy.

In other words, I am a typically western male of the kind that inhabits the USA, UK, Europe, Australia and increasingly other areas of the world.

I will, if I live long enough, probably consume a disproportionate amount of the medical resources of the UK, which the government seem intent on reducing by any means necessary anyway. And it is likely that I will be in considerable pain, using drugs for pain relief for at least some part of the rest of my life.

Not a pretty picture, but it would seem typical.

So, if there was a way to improve your chances of leading a healthier, possibly pain-free life, would you take it?

Here are my attempts to change what my current health is now (and could be in the future) through dietary and lifestyle changes.

Here's my efforts at shooting glass, with some setup shots.
Enjoy.

I fear greatly for the future of mankind.

The first one I came across annoyed me for it’s sheer blatancy.

The second one because it was facing me.

Any more I get I will add to the second post and update this post.

Hope they are just not as prevalent as where you are....

This post is one insight I have reached.

Sometimes I get one that I really like. This one seems to draw me in whenever I look at it for a while.

Enjoy.

And I do these exercises where I imagine a conversation between two characters. Don’t know if it helps with writing dialogue, but it sure gets me thinking.

It is quite dark in tone, and I make no apologies for that. We live in dark times - just watch the mainstream news and I guarantee you will be a little (or a lot) depressed after it.

It amused me, your mileage may vary.
Comment if you like.

If you are looking for the old content of my blog, it is no longer being updated. Most of the content can be found here. It just didn’t reflect who I am right now - I am currently un-employed, and getting interested in things other than computers and photography. Hopefully, you’ll find something that interests you in this new set-up, and you will perhaps visit again.

Feel free to explore the pages that interest you, please comment on anything you feel is worth a comment, and if it isn’t, why don’t you leave a comment to say why it’s not, and help me grow?


Thanks,

   Shane.
