Vancouver is one the three sites in Canada to try a government-supported drug program. This program, unlike others, is aimed to push drugs rather than to eliminate them. Their plan is to offer medically administered drugs to people that will show up three times a week for the dose. In doing so, addicts will not… Continue reading Free Heroin

FireFox: 1, IE 7: -1
Internet Explorer 7 will be releasing sometime this summer (as currently planned) to retrofit a browser losing popularity in the latest war. FireFox has gained an unimaginable 10%+ of the market in a very short period of time. I, myself, have been swayed to gear my development efforts towards FireFox’s support model. From what Dean… Continue reading FireFox: 1, IE 7: -1
St. Patrick’s Day at Meehan’s
Amy, I, and Balthazar all went to Meehan’s this evening to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. It was an excellent venue for the event, though it was pretty much standing room only. If it seems a bit odd to bring a two-year-old to an ale house, it is. However, Meehan’s catered to all until 8:00pm on… Continue reading St. Patrick’s Day at Meehan’s
Ice Cube Escapee
I have an ice tray that consistently ejects ice from at least one cube with every freeze. I’m perplexed by this phenomenon! It must happen just as the surface of the ice freezes. I’ve opened the freezer early in the process to see partially frozen cubes. The offender can be found, prominently displaying its shard.… Continue reading Ice Cube Escapee
Omnifi is Here!
I got my Omnifi bundle today from woot.com. I was so eager to get into it that I immediately opened the box and grabbed the documentation to begin reading. I knew I wouldn’t have a chance to play with the parts until much later, so I figured this would satisfy me. This thing is cool!… Continue reading Omnifi is Here!
Atlanta Killings Make BIG News
Brian Nichols escaped from a courthouse today in Fulton County, having shot and killed the judge, court reporter, and possibly a sheriff’s deputy. I’m guessing by his shocking departure that he’s guilty. He also took the time to pistol-whip an AJC reporter while hijacking a vehicle. I’m shocked that this sort of thing could even… Continue reading Atlanta Killings Make BIG News
The Beginner’s Guide to Business Blogging
If you don’t frequent ChangeThis.com, you probably should. They play host to many a free resource for the techno-exec style white paper. I recently read through The Beginner’s Guide to Business Blogging, which was actually a good read cover to cover (as most of their guides are). The topics covered helped me with my personal… Continue reading The Beginner’s Guide to Business Blogging
“Looks like he’s heading towards that small moon…”
For USD 299.00, you can get an Episode VI (Star Wars: Return of the Jedi) Death Star LEGO replica. I think that’s a sweet deal! And well…I have a two year-old, so it’s justified too. I didn’t even realize the advancements that LEGO has made in the years since my abandonment of the box of… Continue reading “Looks like he’s heading towards that small moon…”
Pee Your Bed Much?
When I was very young, I distinctly remember wetting the bed. More importantly, I remember why I wet the bed. In all cases I can recall, there was a very realistic dream in which I rose from bed and stumbled into the bathroom to pee. The realism peaked when the warmth of my own urine… Continue reading Pee Your Bed Much?
NETFUTURE: Technology and Human Responsibility
“We are entering an age of spiritual machines. It’s just that he forgot to tell us they would be dumb as hell.” — Steve Talbot Steve Talbot from the O’Reilly Press puts out a ezine from time-to-time (monthly?) called, “NETFUTURE.” I was struck by an article I read years ago in it, and I’ve been… Continue reading NETFUTURE: Technology and Human Responsibility
