Month: June 2006

I wish that I could use maps from Show me Cyprus in Google Earth and Google Maps. The coverage from Show me Cyprus is a bit less, but the quality of images for covered areas is better than what Google Earth offers.

Today I have renewed my gym membership for another 6 month (129 CYP). The first month of my dieting and exercisng is over. Here are a few highlights, for the record:

• I’ve started with 122 something kilograms. Today I clocked in 112.7 before gym and 111.9 kilograms after. I lost almost 10 kilograms in one month, which is better than was expected.
• I feel better and healthier. I love walking now, exercising a few times a week, and don’t have any hard times with my diet. Nevermind three or so exceptions during the last month.
• My physical strength is growing. I am not getting tired as fast as I used to, and I can do more exercises (longer, more weights, etc).

I’ll keep on doing what I am doing for now, as I am pleased with results.

After watching this episode of “The Daily Show“, I decided to read a bit more about the Berkeley Pit.

Surprisingly, the Wikipedia page contained almost as much information as the episode itself. Minus the comedy. Plus the links to the additional resources (mostly with pictures).

That’s one of the reasons I love “The Daily Show” – funny and informative.
