walking around passport control







walking around passport control

walking around passport control 09/02/2004 10:02 AM

I'm at an airport lounge in Frankfurt Airport and just had a weird experience. There was a huge line and passport control to get into the terminal with my departure gate for my next flight. I decided to go to the lounge. It was sort of a long walk, but when I arrived and asked how to get to my gate, they said it was around the corner - with no security or passport control. Somehow I just "walked around" the passport control.

Now I realize that this is inter-terminal passport control so I have no idea what sort of border it represents, but being able to walk around it seems a bit weird to me...

Anne and I walked 13 miles today, along The Strand from Dockweiler to Hermosa and back.

It was a perfect day to walk. Blue skies, a light breeze, tons of friendly people out walking their dogs, and a beach absolutely packed with people playing volleyball. There was this festive atmosphere everywhere, and I felt like my soul got a little recharge while my body got a light workout.

Walking Manhattan


Walking Manhattan 01/03/2005 01:41 AM

In the last New Yorker issue of 2004 (I'm doing some catch-up reading), Ben McGrath has a fun Talk of the Town piece on Caleb Smith, a guy who walked every street on the island of Manhattan over the last year and a half.

The end of the piece mentions Mike Epstein, of the excellent Creative Commons-licensed photography blog Satan's Laundromat. Mike has taken up Smith's peripatetic legacy; he has "so far logged just two dozen miles, but he has plans for one-upmanship. He intends to do Roosevelt Island."

I don't know why I started doing it, but for one reason or another I set about recording my feet walking through Vancouver when I was up there last week. I assembled a bunch of the clips and slapped a song I listened to a great deal on my way up there, Scott and Shannon's Nothing New. After editing the clips together in iMovie for about 30 minutes I've nearly gotten motion sickness, but hopefully you don't feel that way while watching it.

Japanese researchers at Waseda University and manufacturer Tmsuk have built a prototype two-legged robotic walking chair which can carry a person and walk up and down stairs. Sort of reminds us of the iBot 3000, that motorized wheelchair invented by Dean Kamen (i.e. Mr. Segway) that can also climb up and down stairs. Though without the wheels, obviously. Anyway, a working model of the WL-16 could hit the market within a few years. Read [Via The Red Ferret Journal]...

oy_walker.jpgJoel is out gallivanting across New Orleans and has presumably found his way to CTIA, where he'll be reporting from soon. Meanwhile, he's left the lot of you in my (allegedly) capable hands, with this message: Caveat emptor. That being said, let's get down to it. Plustech Oy (a John Deere subsidiary) has unleashed their Walking Machine—an indispensable, six-legged log-hauling machine that I assume can eat orphanages and other small buildings with ease. In reality, the Walking Machine is use for foresting and can determine ground pressure and adjust the machine's six shoes appropriately, allowing it to traverse various terrains. It's also able to detect and avoid obstacles, simply stepping over things in its path. Brilliantly controlled with a single joystick (and a complex computer navigation system), the Plustech website has some videos of the Walking Machine in action.
