Polysemy is more fun: Early accounts treated polysemy in terms of sense enumeration: each sense of a polysemous expression is represented individually in the lexicon, such that polysemy and homonymy were treated on a par. This approach has been strongly criticized on both theoretical and empirical g...

LS spring> short sleeve steamer Totally different use case what's a use case? sounds like a tech term. Indeed In software and systems engineering, the phrase use case is a polyseme with two senses: 1.

You and I Skipper, had a very pleasant three hour lunch with Steve not so long ago, we could have gone all afternoon.

Starting to be, yesterday there were three out at Temples and they came in as I watched.

The show moves further out when it gets bigger and breaks on a different part of the reef. I never really think of Temples when it's bigger.

Surf report for a mate in Kuta

Just looking at Ulus, glass, head high, Racetrack is good but crowded.Two at Temples, perhaps a little big for it, and a bit shallow. Swell on the rise.

Can we see it live Steve?

Got the order wrong there channels. If we resolve Bondi parking then the Voice and Israel/Palestine dilemmas will quickly fall into place

Welcome back AJ

Excellent read Steve, informative and very well written.

Pants, it's a wonded that you persisted without Tangents.... hang on, maybe its the other way around!

Swell looking as advertised, 10'/4,100kJ at Ulus this morning. Padang the primo spot, Bomby and Outside Corner the biggest.

Friends in Kuta asked for a surf report. After a quick check here's what I sent:

Perfect conditions, 40 out, everyone sitting waiting for head high waves. Nearly double overhead set arrived, western break guys were caught about 30m inside, eastern guys about 60m

Fcuk, another off those sets, 5 surfers out over a kilometre, none caught or paddled for. Back to chest high, perfect conditions

Just starting to get back some form on my 7' and 7'6 after riding an 8'6 around Perth. A couple of waves every fortnight is a disaster skill wise.

I certainly wasn't trying to take one of the double overhead ones though. They did clear the water, there was only three of us out for a while.

Ulus is a bit of a mess. Head and a half size swell, 20 out at racetrack, only 1 or 2 chancing the other breaks. Only head high where I surfed but two 8 wave sets at near double that at about 9:30am cleared the water for a while. Water quality? Who knows, it always looks OK except when it rains heav...

Still a few waves left from the last swell
