• At the place I park my electric bike for recharging all the spots were taken. However, a few of the bikes weren't being recharged. So I lifted one of the smallest of the unrecharging bikes and put my bike in its place. I need the bike tomorrow to get to work so I had no choice. I have been told that taking out the batteries from the bike and taking them to the apartment to recharge is not a good idea because they are very heavy - they make up most of a bike's weight.

• From Seablogger, a posting about what he sees are the four powers whose interactions make up the world today: Liberal Democracies, China, Russia and Islam. It is a variation on the three powers interacting in Orwell's 1984. Clearly, One World, One Dream is a pipe dream. Whether in the interactions of humans or nations, I see no evidence that we can ever be one. But in spite of being human, as Seablogger says, we have accomplished much. I can't see China returning to the stupidity of the Mao years.

• No medals, yet, for Latvia at the Olympics. I hope my father has the satisfaction of seeing them win one medal in the Olympics.
• The feedback about Liu Xiang has been one of disappointment at what happened mixed in with some his name is now mud.
