After filmmaker Katja Esson’s sister gave birth in Germany, she was able to breastfeed her baby anywhere and at any time. Returning home to New York, Esson found that breastfeeding was rarely practiced and largely unseen. Academy Award® Nominee Esson (Ferry Tales) turned her quirky eye on the subject and set out to learn why this was so. Her wide-ranging, frequently funny documentary highlights the intersecting economic, social, and cultural forces that have helped replace mother’s milk with formula produced by a billion dollar industry, and reveals the challenges and rewards for women who buck the trend.

These fat four strokes require a little custom work in the well. Because the well sides were widened to fit the motor when it turns I needed some low profile plug latches. These I fabricated from aluminum. They're very simple and effective.
Bit of a random photo from today. It got to late afternoon and I hadn't taken a photo yet, so I went wandering around the house trying to find something to photograph. I was trying to get my compact camera to go into macro mode, and this was a bit of a test shot - but turned out to be my favourite one.
Went climbing with Tim this morning. I was so exhausted to start with, I thought I was going to have to stop - but then seemed to dredge up some energy from somewhere and actually had an ok climb. Had a nice relaxing afternoon, then went out to Tzigano's in Blackheath for dinner, and then on to Zero Degrees again for a couple of beers. Lovely! Really enjoying our long weekend at home :)
