New shoes - new project
James Kellerman
Ok, so i went a little mad at the weekend. My first proper clothes shopping trip in a while, and as a result I am now the proud owner of a pair of size 12 adicolor H2. These pure white beauties, come with a set of spray paints to create your own design, or more likely plain ruin your shoes. I am thinking about stenciling them ala banksy, in fact given that he is incredibly talented and I am not, I might just copy one of his designs. If you or anyone you know has good ideas for what I should stencil on my glorious new white shoes, please comment! You can even design it online here: http://www.adidas.com/adicolor/
Schneier on Security: The Value of Privacy
James Kellerman
Cardinal Richelieu understood the value of surveillance when he famously said, "If one would give me six lines written by the hand of the most honest man, I would find something in them to have him hanged." Watch someone long enough, and you'll find something to arrest -- or just blackmail -- with. Privacy protects us from abuses by those in power, even if we're doing nothing wrong at the time of surveillance. We do nothing wrong when we make love or go to the bathroom. We are not deliberately hiding anything when we seek out private places for reflection or conversation. We keep private journals, sing in the privacy of the shower, and write letters to secret lovers and then burn them. Privacy is a basic human need. Link

Invader Update
James Kellerman
They are watching us. These new photographs show our soon to be spiky overlords are observing us. The mystery deepens.
Mysterious Invaders
James Kellerman
Noticed these things have started appearing on top of bus shelters around Clerkenwell and Shoreditch. Click on the picture for a bigger view. They are spiky and colourful and can only be seen from the top deck of double decker buses. I for one welcome our spiky bus shelter invading overlords.
A cheap night out
James Kellerman
Went down to the south bank last night to meet some friends. Ended up sitting on the benches watching the sun set over the river, drinking cans of stella and enjoying the antics of London by the riverside.
The South Bank has such an eclectic mix of people. The skaters, finally being able to make great use of the concrete bowls after years of disputes and fights with the council, bring a raw urban energy to the mix. The secondhand book sellers under waterloo bridge, an affordable and eccentric collection of just about anything printed. Business men and women wander past on the way to Waterloo station, while runners fly past dodging the various human hazards on the riverside. Throw into this collection of archetypes a handful of well dressed concert goers, heading to the Royal Festival Hall, and arty film types drinking outside the national film theatre and you have a neat cross section of urban london.

And here is the downside to all that running.
105!
James Kellerman
Today I broke 100 miles running, since starting just over a month ago. Had a fantastic run around richmond park, the 10.2 miles pushed me comfortable over the 100 mile mark. The graph shows how it happened! Going to aim for a half marathon this year, hopefully with a time around 1 hour 30.

Chest Pain, and a trip in the Ambulance
James Kellerman
We are in a holding pattern at the Royal London Hospital. My brother, Ben in the middle, has had acute chest pains on exertion for the last couple of days and NHS direct sent out an ambulance to check him over. Despite finding nothing wrong on the ECG they recommended going to hospital. So one free trip in the ambulance later, no blue light unfortunately, we are safely waiting in ER. Not expecting any serious problem, but hopefully we will find out soon. Update: Ben got discharged last night, no problems discovered but they are doing some follow up and will let us know. And yes we are in a hospital in the picture, jsut not too stressed.
Happy Birthday Mr Hederson
