Bond Investment - AFC Wimbledon

If you are interested in a Bond investment with up to 4% interest - check this email from the Dons Trust. This spells out how you could loan money to The Dons Trust and gain decent interest over a 5,10 or 20 year period. With these Bonds, you can achieve a financial return while helping AFC Wimbledon and the Dons Trust get the new community stadium completed in time for the 2020-21 season and preserve the fan-owned status of the club. We are a unique club with a unique history and ownership model designed to support the broader community. This new community stadium will have a huge impact on how much we can support people in and around Wimbledon. It’s more than Football, the AFC Wimbledon Foundation supports, Sport, Health, Education and Inclusion in various out reach activities, this new community stadium would be a focal point for this and allow more to be done. More details and the link to buy Bonds at https://ploughlanebond.com/

The offline nature of pouchDB and couchDB is super ROBUST !

→ 12:40 PM, Jan 22

Offline is working, you just cant see it!

This is a difficult bug to consider but going to post here and then log in the system… the remote CouchDB has died but the server is up so when trying to connect the 502 gateway error causes a CORS errors. But you can still proceed into nodenogg.in (as its PouchDB) and works offline. I can test this by going offline and entering a microcosm but now it seems the list and spatial views do not update visually so you cant see your data. If you go back online and wait the page will update, the data will sync and nothing was lost and all your notes captured and visible, but not being able to see the local copy is wrong now. Shows how robust the offline mode is but I must be showing the wrong data set now or something.

AFC Wimbledon Launch bond at up to 4% Interest!

As a AFC Wimbledon fan a core of why I love the Club and set up is our Trust / Fans owned model. So counter to the greed and cash driven situation of most top flight UK clubs. This model of ownership means that we the fans and the community guide and steer the club to benefit the community, be it those directly connected to football or just by enabling our stars to visit and encouraged kids at hospitals and other community areas we can bring positivity. BUT right now we have a huge capital funding gap (£11million) to finish our brandnew community stadium. So here is how you can help.

You can invest into the newly announced bond scheme and gain a great intrest rate of up to 4%! (there is some risks obviously) but Please check out the Bond website for details on how you could help realise the final piece in the puzzle a stadium back in Wimbledon and this great community asset for Wimbledon whilst also having a very nice interest rate on your savings.

A group of my final year students who have pitched a mindful game in which you journey through a Boreal forest via Canoe. This image is them undertaking some first hand research between semesters. I love it when I see students fully synthesise all the research and design processes we have embedded in our programme in such wonderful ways. Can’t wait to see how their game progresses to completion in Semester 2.

Ok when BBC news states the we won’t understand the pros and cons of social media until the firms that run Facebook , Instagram and Twitter hand over their data. Need to know the first two Are owned by The Facebook and secondly they will never hand over “their” data for research.

Fred Wilson’s principles :

Am I working on something that inspires me (and others)?

Am I working on something with a significant impact?

Am I working in a way that makes getting where I want to go as easy as possible (and keeps me there as long as possible)?

Yes indeed.
