Good morning! I dropped the girls off at their schools. It's the last day of the semester for Claire. Tomorrow and Friday she has her final exams. I listened to more of "Reamde" on the drive to work. Sunny and 36°F so far. Time to dig through 29 emails and get into debuggin'...
May have to show this to my camera-awkward boys (not that I do much better…): How to Look Your Best In Photos. Well, as long as they don't take posing tips from Angus.
Michelle is at the YMCA sub-teaching a Step class this morning, as the instructor who usually has this slot is sick today.
36 Year Old Virgin Has Fathered 14 Children. What a strange world some of our technology has generated! Thank you artificial insemination and sperm banks.
Some nice shots/videos of the recent aurora borealis due to the large solar flares. (related link)
The St. Josemaria Institute has redesigned their website.
Just how big are some stars? Want some help trying to visualize it? Try this.
Listened to the CATO Institute's review of the State of the Union Address. The RNC also critiqued it as being a carbon copy of his previous addresses.
Had a couple of debugging successes today. Just finished up third and final conference call for the afternoon. Ready to head north...
Listen to more of Neal Stephenson's “Reamde” on the drive home. If it seems like I've been listening to this forever, keep in mind that the book is over a thousand pages. This author's previous “Anathem” was almost as bad. Had some reheated dinner. Got Timothy setup with Code Academy to learn some bits of JavaScript. Michelle helped Michael learn long division while I helped Claire prepare for tomorrow's finals by reviewing vocabulary words with her. In exchange Claire got the boys ready for bed with their prayers. Now getting some heavy eyes... Good night all!
