In honour of the happy elision of #JaneJacobsDay and #MayThe4thBeWithYou here is Jane Jacobs during her period on the Jedi Council. As is well known.... Image
... she battled Sith Lord DarthMoses about the routing of new dual airway skyways through city centre Coruscant .... Image
... and thankfully saved much of the city from being turned into a highways for air-cars. #Phew

Borrowdale v Director-General of Health in the Court of Appeal (Day 1).

#BorrowdaleRound2
Judges have arrived. Farmer QC et al for Borrowdale; Solicitor-General et al for govt (good to see SG appearing herself); NZLS intervening. Gallery full — except the broken seat (my favourite at the back right).

#BorrowdaleRound2
Housekeeping about order, timing and 10min non-interruption rule. Court takes different views on when NZLS should appear. Court suggests argument could be done in 1 day — but Farmer doubts. Wisely, Farmer engages 10min rule.

Who wants facts?

Strap yourselves in!
National cabinet agreed on a plan to get us out of Covid town.
Main points: Passenger caps reduced by 50%, repatriation flights to get Aussies home and they’ll trial home quarantine for the vaccinated.
So where the hell is the plan? Like ALL good plans - it’s a FOUR step plan bestie.
1.Where we are now - keep vaccinating, reduce return travellers and use lockdowns as a last resort.
2.Traveller caps return to 100% for unvaxxed peeps - bigger caps for those who have been vaxxed, a vaccine booster program will be introduced and lockdowns only in EXTREME circumstances. EXTREME is a word which should always be written in caps.

Happy March! What better way to start a new month than by spreading the word on all things #openscience! Over the next month we’ll be sharing 1 summary of #openscience literature every day because you know what they say, an open science paper a day keeps the bad science away! 👏 Image
If 1 summary just isn’t enough check out the FORRT website forrt.org/summaries/! The summaries are a work in progress & we are always looking for people to contribute their thoughts/ideas - if you’d like to get involved or have comments get in touch we’d love to hear from you!
Kicking off the #OpenScience summaries with 7 Easy Steps to Open Science! The paper provides an introduction to open science and related reforms in the form of an annotated reading list of seven peer-reviewed articles! 👏 Image

I was honored to spend time on the phone with Sigrid Stokes, a Pacific Grove nurse in her 70s who is working the frontlines vaccinating people against Covid-19. Sigrid's mother volunteered during the Spanish flu pandemic. read the story! mailchi.mp/mcweekly/2021-…
Stokes was a journalism major before she got a nursing degree. She was careful about spelling names and wanted to make sure I was accurate. I was nervous I'd flub something but was relieved when she sent an email this morning saying she appreciated how "ACCURATE" I was. #phew
Here's the cover story I wrote about the rocky roll out of Covid-19 vaccines for Thursday's paper. That''s Sigrid below. montereycountyweekly.com/news/cover_col…

1. Welcome to the 1st presentation of today’s #HCTwitterConf19 #NoPressure I'm @louoboyle & I'm asking WHY SHOULD I BOTHER? Provoking & reflecting on why #MakingConnections is increasingly crucial to all facets of our practices, thinking & futures within & beyond HE @HumCommons
@humcommons 2. #SetTheScene #WorkLife
To-do lists can seem to get ever longer & the timescales to complete even shorter. Mindful that #Wellbeing #SelfCare are always priority, why spend time engaging with communities like @HumCommons online?

So, as a lot of you a probably aware, the new Assassins Creed is going to be set in Egypt. Specifically, during the reign of Cleopatra VII.
As you may or may not know, this is the period I studied as my honours topic.
I've been seeing a lot of ads for the new game. It looks like they're advertising using Middle Kingdom hieroglyphs (which I also studied)
