Noosa Century Haiku - Cycling Poetry

 This Haiku came to me while riding the latter half of the Noosa Century 2010, I think it captures what was a spectacular day.

Cool air, pre-dawn start
Flowing roads to many hills
Tailwinds with sea views

IP Subnetting

Performing IP Subnetting is part art and mostly science (at least maths).  You need somewhere to start and an understanding of what and how you are going to break up the address space, that is the art part, the science comes with calculating out all the address break points.

Humor - a play on words

1. The roundest knight at King Arthur's round table was Sir Cumference... He acquired his size from too much pi.

2. I thought I saw an eye doctor on an Alaskan island, but it turned out to be an optical Aleutian. 

3. She was only a whiskey maker, but he loved her still. 

4. A rubber band pistol was confiscated from algebra class, because it was a weapon of math disruption.   

5. No matter how much you push the envelope, it'll still be stationery.

How to avoid problems when selling your home

1. Always insist on a deposit that is large enough to cover your costs and inconvenience if things should go wrong. Many agents will tell you not to worry about it especially if there is a cooling off period. Don't use those agents. Any purchaser truly keen on buying your home will get a deposit. $10,000 is a minimum.  Any less and their incentive to settle can disappear very fast.

Queensland’s shameful management of the Fraser Island World Heritage site

Queensland’s Fraser Island was inscribed on the World Heritage List in 1992 —  eight years before Sarawak ‘s Gunung Mulu National Park.  The fight to have Fraser Island World Heritage listed though started in 1974 and was a major public debate for almost two decades prior to its recognition.  It is therefore surprising that once it was listed the Queensland Government has allowed it to become so degraded that some people are now arguing that it needs to be placed on the World Heritage in Danger List.
