Yes, it's still cold

From the Nashua Telegraph "Region shivers in cold spell"

AccuWeather is forecasting a continuation of the bitterly cold weather for the rest of the week, with another “bitter cold discharge” expected Thursday and Friday – so people will need to bear it and look forward to a long, hot shower at the end of the workday.
Oh Joy!

We may skip over using "Kerry" as a baby name. Most sources seem to indicate it means something like "son of the Dark One". Not that I'm superstitious...

Today the twins turn 2 years old. Happy Birthday, Michael and Daniel. Since I won't be home tonight before the kids are in bed, we celebrated with a cake and song yesterday after dinner.

My boys are just goofy sometimes. They were both marching around the house this morning with toilet plungers in their hands, as if they were holding a scepter. "I am a royal do-bee. Fear me! For behold, I wield the mighty plunger!"

Today is also the 30th anniversary of the Supreme Court Roe vs Wade decision. Washington DC is certain to be the locus of demonstrations, both in support and against the decision. Roughly 40 million babies have been surgically terminated in US alone since that time. On average, as many per day as died in the September 11th attacks.

I found another example of our technology used in a novel embedded product - the Canesta projection keyboard. It has the potential to give keyboard input to devices without the bulk of a keyboard.
