I’ve lost track of the number of times “design” has been dropped at UXAustralia this year and I’m loving it. I think we should recognise the good visuals. So here are some award categories; go ahead and drop a comment (or tweet) nominating the presentations that’ve stood out to you. I’ll collate the results. Feel free to make up new categories and nominate in those too. The only prizes are bragging rights in next year’s program.
Listening to The 9pm Edict #12 last night I had a moment of inspiration. With the right tunes behind ‘em, this election’s catchphrases might make good ringtones for the parties faithful. If they can loop the lines, so can anyone else.
I’d always know of Dr Who, but I’d never watched an episode until this fifth series in which Matt Smith plays the Doctor. Now I think I’m hooked. Feel free to hit me if I start wearing bow ties. Bow ties are not cool.
Matt Smith went to Glastonbury this year and got on stage with Orbital to play their take on the Dr Who theme. Matt Smith is cool.
The Canberra Knights fell 4-3 at home on a last-minute to the Sydney Bears.
Two goals from Sean Scarbrough and another by Vadim Virjassov has dug Canberra out of 3-1 deficit before Valdemar Pelikovsky scored with 35 seconds remaining as the Bears converted four of six power plays to stretch the Knights’ losing streak to a season-high five games.
Sydney took the lead less than two minutes into the game when Brett Nelson-Bond and would have been further in front if not for a series of miracle saves from Canberra netminder Ryan Lowe.
Goals by Roberto Franchini and Pelokovsky on each side of a Scarbrough tally saw the Bears open the third period to a 3-1 lead.
But Virjassov would score 19 seconds into the period when he took he skated down the left wing and lasered a shot that sent Nick Boucher’s water bottle flying off the top of his net.
Seven minutes later, it was all square again when a stiff pass out of defence from Aaron Clayworth to Jordan Gavin was brought under control by Scarbrough at the Sydney blue line.
The Canberra forward rounded the Bears’ defence before scoring from a tight angle.
But the Knights’ ill discipline again saw them undone as they took a late penalty that the Bears would convert for the win.
Canberra ended the game with 34 minutes in penalties to Sydney’s 4.
