Just a note to mention how much I love BHK. beyond quantification. Lots. and Lots. She’s the most amazing person I’ve ever had the pleasure to know.

Misc doodles done recently on the palm – the medical stats are from my last epidural, both before and after. The fish or carrot eating firebutt and frank oz (with hair) guy are from the avectra meeting break. I was surprised, because I was the only one there wearing a tie… Frank Oz guy was hypnotic in his tone of voice.

Other stuff is from the bus ride – still congested, doc’s appt, and a random blue ghost with newtcam. the little gray slug is something pye was chasing that night.

Posted: 59,408 – Received: 59, 563 – I’d say that calls it at just about even. Nearly 60k in either direction.  That’s over 8 years, so..  that’s what.. 7500 or so a year? That’s like 20 a day… some days are much busier, others go by without a peep.

I like to post weird stuff in other journals – comment on what folks are saying or as a nudge to get a conversation started. Folks seem to like to comment on my journal – probably because there’s a variety in most of my posts – generally, I talk about my life, observations and links to stuff I think is neat or informative. The funny thing is, some things I figure will get a response will have no comment on ’em, and things that I think are really interesting only to me get a string of responses a mile long.

It’s been a long time since I’ve been to Joss – maybe I can take BHK on a little date there to celebrate the felling of the trees this weekend. Barring that, maybe the trolley will happen. I’m not sure why I’m so gung-ho about riding it.

BHK made fajitas tonight – tasty and super healthy!

The Smithsonian has joined The Commons on Flickr, which started as a pilot between the Library of Congress and Flickr to increase access to publicly-held photo collections and allow the public to contribute knowledge and information (such as tags) to those collections.

The Smithsonian’s photostream contains some fantastic gems, including portraits of scientists, cyanotypes cataloging the Smithsonian’s other collections, and cool photos from past Folklife festivals.



the ethics of stealing Wi-Fi. Many of us been guilty of the same crime at one point or another — according to the article, 53% of us at least. But how guilty do we really feel? As it is officially a crime to steal wi-fi (Title 18, Part 1, Chapter 47 of the United States Code, which covers anybody who ‘intentionally accesses a computer without authorization or exceeds authorized access’).

When two plastics (polymers TTF and TCNQ) are placed atop one another, a thin strip forms that conducts electricity “as well as a metal”.

The TTF-TCNQ interface conducts electricity much better than standard semiconductors. “The electron concentration there is an order of magnitude higher,” Mannhart says. “That has the power to create new effects, from magnetism to superconductivity.”

Watched the quiz boy episode of Venture brothers last night… mostly character filler and “spot the reference”. This season hasn’t been as good as last, so far – I hope it catches speed soon. Speaking of TV – I haven’t viewed middleman yet, but I keep hearing good things. It should be on our tivo – need to check and see if it was snagged.

I’ve been at my gig for a year today – hard to believe. In some ways it seems like I’ve been there a lot longer… in others, only a few months.

Looks like DV has moved on from my old gig as head of MIS at ACIM … and Tiff is gone, too. They just can’t hang on to folks there. I noticed that Obama earmarked $300k from his state to support the ACIM service – I wonder how much of that actually went to help Illinois?

Nice light dinner of sammiches over some silly reality TV. BHK was disappointed when the guy on Farmer takes a wife snuffed out the one she (and I) thought would take it. I still think the whole thing is more scripted than ugly betty, but I’m a reality show cynic.

Why you should never agree to be interviewed by the police – per a law professor and a policeman. (5th amendment – youtube)



newton and pye sleepin!

a year ago, they’d never have slept this close together.


Being woken in the dead of night by noisy neighbors blasting out music could soon be a thing of the past. Scientists have shown off the blueprint for an “acoustic cloak”, which could make objects impervious to sound waves.
