Fundraising for charity

Last weekend I went to Newcastle and saw the Great North Run. This year is its 25th anniversary. More than 45,000 participants make it the biggest half marathon in the world. It is also a good excuse to raise funds for charity…

Spencer Dayman Meningitis UK promotes research and development of vaccines against meningitis and associated diseases. We are trying to raise over £1,000 (€1,500 approx.). If you have a few quids left to spare after the weekend’s excesses and feel like donating, it will be more than welcome. You can even do it online!

The power of zero

According to the equations of quantum mechanics, more power than is stored in all the coal mines, oil fields, and nuclear weapons in the world is sitting in the space inside your toaster.

Stklm :: Day 4

59h27m Time to leave. We pack all our stuff and have breakfast while deciding on what to do this morning. The flight departs early in the afternoon, so we have a few hours left in the city, or better, in Kista, the place where I studied and worked. As we walk to the underground station we wonder when we will be back to Lappis again.
60h29m Kista is the epicentre of R&D in the Stockholm area. It’s also known as the Wireless Valley. They claim it has the highest density of companies and employees in Europe. Nice to be here again. Not for long though. The buses to the airport are not as frequent as we expected, so we have to return to Cityterminalen and take the train there.
65h05m On the way to Arlanda we are quiet and reflective. I become so lost in thought that I forget my Swedish souvenirs and jumper in the Arlanda Express. A good excuse for spending some more money at the airport. Never mind.
