Berkeley, Saturday, May 30, 2026 1:59 am A bit of history, before the local bridges. In this particular case, before the Carquinez Bridge. Thanks to my friend A. to put this topic in my radars. https://cprr.org/Museum/Solano (Heads up. The website is great. It is about the Solano Ferry. I skimmed it. But a link to […]
A few notes on news, learnings, actions. Unfortunately, some generalizations, in some things
Berkeley, Saturday, May 30, 2026 0:26 am I should be doing my schedule now. About the novenas, while I received a good advice on keep doing, and in general it has a good impact. I am afraid that the superficiality of reading a passage and write about it, it is not a good practice. It […]
YAP’s
Berkeley, Friday, May 29, 2026 11:31 pm I understand that there are things to do tomorrow. I might not feel it deeply though. This could be a continuous preface in posts, while I get my habits and brain back into writing. Then, why to write here at all? Messages, events could create a divided attention, […]
Saint Charles Lwanga and Companions
Berkeley, Tuesday, May 26, 2026 1:51 am [1] Also mentions Joseph Mkasa. Feast day: June 3. Day 1. May 26. 1.51 am. I have been debating myself regarding using time for this or not. And I do not have a clear answer. I might write another post with more details. The problem is too much […]
St. Pope Paolo VI. Alpinismo
Berkeley, Thursday, May 21, 2026 1:26 am A few days ago, someone was sharing a experience and picture of her great grand uncle: Pope Paul VI. There are sharp moments and there are concussions.

Berkeley, Sunday, May 17, 2026 3:12 am Here a few things, I have done, learned, I need to do, and to learn as well. There is not much reflections in those things. It is rather a list of things. Probably, that is a bit of the tone of the blog now, plus mainly the novenas. […]

Name of structures of streets in cities, which are not necessarily a grid
Berkeley, Thursday, May 14, 2026 As a group we did not get right this one. Although, by intuition I wanted to choose the arabic name, which was the correct answer. But it is a topic I did not know that much, and still do not know even the name. So a partial answer is in […]

Intentions
Berkeley, Friday, May 8, 2026 0:22 am Time is flying. And everyday seems to be about the same. Now I was wondering of heading down to home or to write something, which is rather a reaction and more a reflection, before heading home from the library. At least I completed a form. I am not […]
