Athenia 1939: February 2008
http://nakizo31.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
I don't give a damn for a man that can only spell a word one way. Friday, February 22, 2008. I read a while back about rumblings within the EU that in future all new electronic products would be banned from coming with 'stanby' modes. The idea being that millions of billions of electrical widgets are lost each year throughout Europe's households for no reason whatsoever. Posted by Benjamin Nakizo at 2:10 AM. Friday, February 01, 2008. 3 Para", by Patrick Bishop. 2007. Bishop writes well and keeps you hoo...

Compass Rose: December 2005
http://karic31.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 20, 2005. Donald Miller: Christian Rationalism. Following my stinging attack on American Christianity I am going to follow it up with something very odd. Praise for it. A close friend of mine bought me a copy of a book called ‘Blue Like Jazz’ by Donald Miller who is an American Christian writer. Rather than calling for the assassination of another nations democratically elected sovereign leader he actually wishes to do some good with the idea of religion. Hope you enjoy it!

Wednesday, June 28, 2006. Watch this space. I wrote this during my lunch break. But now i've lost the order pad i wrote it on. Hope i didn't give it to a customer. Posted by Benjamin Nakizo @ 10:02 pm. Was everything ok for you? Very nice thank you". Good, so all together then that's going to be . 21.47 then please". But all I had was a breakfast! Yes, you had the Early Starter breakfast". That's not that much". You're right sir, the Early Starter is not that much. But you did have toast didn't you?

Compass Rose: March 2007
http://karic31.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
Saturday, March 31, 2007. Invasion of the Vorticons. I just stumbled across a rare internet treasure. A site that provides you with countless classic video games, for free. I went there originally to satisfy my demand for world conquest via the majestically educational Civilisation II (which should be made compulsory for all secondary school students). But what else did I find? COMMANDER KEEN: DEFENDER OF EARTH. Posted by Benjamin Nakizo @ 1:53 am. Friday, March 30, 2007. So as I was flicking through the...

Compass Rose: November 2006
http://karic31.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 29, 2006. Guy from the Urals. I dread descending into prophetic poetry. The melodrama muscle stands ready. I need to fight back, reclaim the internal narrative of my mind. Why are words so ugly? Some might don backpacks and head out into the world, although that is coming more unlikely because in the global market place a year at Burger King and the ‘customer relations’ skills it entails is actually worth more on your CV. Dangerous isn’t it? But of course, that is just the pessimist i...

Compass Rose: December 2006
http://karic31.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 27, 2006. In mid-January I get my three essay marks back. A single fail and I am off my Masters program. Anything between 40 50 and I get debunked to the humiliating ‘Post-graduate Diploma’. Why I am worried? I am worried because - and please believe me this is all without an ounce of inflated rhetoric - two of the three essays I handed in were the worst I have ever written in three and a half years. Why am I so confident of this fact? How did I let this happen? Don’t think so. Ho...

Athenia 1939: January 2008
http://nakizo31.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
I don't give a damn for a man that can only spell a word one way. Monday, January 28, 2008. Breaking rank. Already. I know yesterday I said that I would stick to this one theme until it was complete. But, aha, I’m not going to. But, it did inspire me to take a break from my theme. Something totally different and refreshing, just to get me thinking again and provide some perspective on the topic when I return to it. I’m looking forward to it. Just remember Who’s in the house? JC is in the house. Recently ...

I don't give a damn for a man that can only spell a word one way. Saturday, March 29, 2008. PP22: A chilling prospect. All it takes is a little planning and imagination and this shocking waste can be cut dramatically. Yet I don’t know anyone that is actually any good at doing these things on a regular basis. Posted by Benjamin Nakizo at 8:10 AM. Will they take our writing pens away and give us pencils? Should we put the stabilisers back on our bikes? Sure, fights will still happen and other things will b...

I don't give a damn for a man that can only spell a word one way. Wednesday, February 28, 2007. A Canterbury Tale, 1944. Written, produced and directed by Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger. Posted by Benjamin Nakizo at 10:19 AM. Tuesday, February 27, 2007. Looking at the Jewish reaction to the holocaust, why did they stay in Germany after the Nazi takeover of power? Why did those who left do so? What role did Jewish community organizations have in resisting the Nazi oppression? Interesting notes take...

Athenia 1939: October 2006
http://nakizo31.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
I don't give a damn for a man that can only spell a word one way. Tuesday, October 24, 2006. It was during the course of the civil war that the infamous German attack on Gurnica occurred. It was Monday April 26. Small enough for a comfortable experiment and culturally significant enough to the Basque people to spread terror through their ranks. To finish with its well-known legacy The bombing of Guernica had just set a terrifying precedent. One that was to be played out a thousand times all over Euro...
