Louisville, Colorado. So long beautiful grassland. It's time to replace you with over-sized houses, asphalt, and watered lawns. Ryland is building these homes.
It makes me think of what Agent Smith said in the Movie The Matrix:
I'd like to share a revelation I've had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species. I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with their surrounding environment, but you humans do not. You move to an area, and you multiply, and you multiply, until every natural resource is consumed. The only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You are a plague, and we … are the cure.
Dedicated to one of my colleagues who has been simply amazing this year. She helped guide me through the treacherous maze that is the numeracy program and made it look easy!
Been visiting my old home town over the Easter break. It was lovely to see so much effort, money and resources poured into town. Everywhere I looked in the town center, buildings were being cleaned up and the place was looking more respectable than I've ever seen it. There seemed to be a sense of civic pride that I'd not detected before. Even on the outskirts, former slums are being torn down and replaced by new housing estates that really seem to change the whole feel of the place.
But unfortunately you don't have to go too far to find the places that are forgotten by the town planners. This picture was taken in a part of West Yorkshire that has suffered its fair share of problems as long as I can remember. From my recent glimpse at the place it seems that some things are slow to change....

This building was put up back in 1989...22 years ago, in building years...it was still quite "young". I can only imagine the property value went way up as this is right across the street from the Richmond Olympic Oval...and you guessed it...they're building condos...Progress!
Progress: kitchen and ladder – the walls have been plastered and papered. Not long now! Just a shame the very nice flooring wasn't protected properly. Repairs cost a lot of time...
Küche und Malerleiter – die Wände sind gegipst und mit fester Unterlagstapete versehen. Bald ist es soweit!
Slowly making progress on the hemp shopping bag.
This pattern has been teaching me quite a few things, since I haven't ever done a lace-y project before.
Hemp is pretty nice to knit with, I might try to make something else with it eventually.

Chennai wants to be an IT hub. This is part of the stretch that's called the "IT Park". It disturbs me that building glassed, monolithic structures is equated with progress. Note the garbage strewn around.
My first impression when I saw all the glassed IT buildings was fear. I felt like the Borg had landed and was starting to assimilate the ignorant masses.
That feeling is getting stronger as I realize that this is what India sees as its future. I'm hoping to find people who concur that this is sheer idiocy.
