The Third Kingsland Irregulars: April 2013
http://www.3rdkingslandirregulars.net/2013_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 22, 2013. You call that an argument. Against the Labour/Green energy sector reform goes to Colin Espiner:. It's a long time since the Max Bradford power reforms of the early 90s. I remember them well - I covered them as a young reporter. There's little doubt turning electricity into a private commodity and setting up an electricity marketplace has led to higher power prices for residential consumers. And also lower prices for industry. Thursday, April 18, 2013. The idea of a central buyer w...

The Third Kingsland Irregulars: March 2014
http://www.3rdkingslandirregulars.net/2014_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 17, 2014. Last night twitter delivered to me this gem : Inside The Barista Class. Rarely spoken aloud, the tendency of Greenpoint’s service class to take care of its own was one of the only outright gestures of solidarity I witnessed, the only place where a distinction was made between the server and the served. Checks for Negronis, artisanal spicy pickles, hand-roasted coffee beans, and sometimes entire locally sourced meals disappeared with a wink and a nudge reminiscent of Fight Club.

The Third Kingsland Irregulars: January 2013
http://www.3rdkingslandirregulars.net/2013_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 30, 2013. Toe in the water. It's been a long, long January. A lot of it in a paddock. A long way away from a computer. Which, while lovely, is making it a little difficult to get back into the swing of things. The world does not stop when I'm gone (where's your sense of priorities world? Which means that there's so much to catch up on. My rss feeder apparently stops counting at 1000 items to read. It's taken me a few days but I've got it back down to 3-400. Friday, January 18, 2013.

The Third Kingsland Irregulars: It's easy. [waves hand's in the general direction of away]
http://www.3rdkingslandirregulars.net/2013/09/its-easy-waves-hands-in-general.html
Monday, September 23, 2013. It's easy. [waves hand's in the general direction of away]. So I've recently had a little setback wherein the samples I've gathered and been attempting to process for the past several months (nine, start to finish if I'm counting correctly) aren't fit for purpose. I can get perfectly good RNA out of them, but not RNA that is sufficiently good for sequencing. If anyone is particularly interested. So much to do, so little time (and money). Group will I think be quite useful in o...

The Third Kingsland Irregulars: Superb idea.
http://www.3rdkingslandirregulars.net/2013/09/superb-idea.html
Monday, September 2, 2013. There were a few good talks on day 3 - I didn't get a chance to write about any of them yesterday because it was almost straight from the conference to the conference dinner and then home late. On the plus side, a couple of late nights appears to have got rid of the jet lag. Now I'm just tired. Gt everyone to eat more beans. Good luck with that. And they've done it. They've gone from the base Klebsellia fixation system, essentially re-written it and put it into E. coli&...Livin...

The Third Kingsland Irregulars: June 2013
http://www.3rdkingslandirregulars.net/2013_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 11, 2013. A non linear relationship. There's a number of people who have been yelling and screaming incoherently in the local media lately about the draft of the draft unitary plan that the council released for consultation and public feedback. There's several different types of stupidity gathered up in that objection. The only one that I one to draw attention to here is the fact that the relationship between economic growth and population growth is non-linear. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Third Kingsland Irregulars: September 2013
http://www.3rdkingslandirregulars.net/2013_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 26, 2013. Has been out since yesterday and should hopefully have been seen by everyone who's going to vote in the Auckland local body elections. Just in case you haven't though, go here. It's a scorecard for the candidates for Mayor and Auckland Councillors. Sadly it doesn't go down to the level of community boards, but that would have been a huge task. we should be grateful to the folks of Generation Zero. The one ranking on this that surprised me was that of Penny Bright in the Mayo...

Tuesday, March 26, 2013. I have a lot of respect for the wisdom of Sir Bob Jones that he shares with us via his column in the herald. No, wait, that's a lie. I've got sod all. Market systems indisputably produce the best outcomes but inherent in them is volatility, failing which they're not functioning properly. We need to recognise that and have less infantile handwringing when balances swing one way, confident that in the course of time they'll be self-correcting. Thursday, March 14, 2013. We might get...
