Iris Quest

Iris season is about over this spring. And, I have problems taking good pictures of iris – so, for the remainder of iris season – I will be on a quest for a good iris picture. Taken with Panasonic L1 with the kit lens.

Read a wonderful little article – it said that people who walked 90 minutes a day at 4 miles per hour had less stress than people who only walked 15 minutes per day. The article attributed the less stress to the additional walking. Methinks, some of the less stress should be attributed to having 90 minutes per day to spend walking. My Forced Marching is limited to 30 minutes a day. If I have a spare 60 minutes – I’ll spend it chilling thank you.

Still working on my Digital Clutter Issue.  250 images from Hawaii 2001 have been deleted.

Making a Child Theme – testing…

eAnesthesia - an iPhone App
eAnesthesia - an iPhone App

This is more than a little scary. An iPhone app that does the anesthesia calculations. Think about it. What was iPod thinking when they approved this app? Do we really want our anesthesia person playing with their iPhone while they are supposed to be keeping us alive but out of it. What if they drop the iPhone during your operation, what then?

I am learning to make a child theme this afternoon and the results will be “indeterminate”.

Well, I think I have learned enough for now. Just made a few little “starter tweaks”.

Just what are those medals for?

cdc_docWe have seen a lot of this lady on TV lately. Not too sure who she is. Someone from the Public Health Service. But the question is: What is with the ribbons. Ribbons are sort of mini-versions of medals. So, what are hers for? Good conduct, perfect attendance? Maybe a Sharp Power Pointer Badge. In-country medal for service during the SARS outbreak? Did she fall on an anthrax ridden letter? I suppose her medals are as worthy as many modern military citations.She most likely facilitated, oversaw, managed, led, supported, supervised, headed, directed, piloted, steered all manner of task forces.After having facilitated, oversaw, managed, led, supported, supervised, headed, directed, held, piloted, steered numerous committees.
