The software I use
While answering some "What do you use for…" questions the other night Daniel suggested I write up a recap of what tools I use. He wrote something similar a few days back and it was interesting to read through.
During the day I'm helping organize and lead our various support teams at Automattic so the bulk of my time is spent writing, talking with people, and helping out with projects that come up. All of that requires pretty simple and lightweight tools.
My day-to-day communication all happens through two tools. Much of it happens through various P2s which we have setup for every team, major project, and area of interest within the company. If you're not familiar with P2s Matt wrote a bit about how we use them. Or, go pick up a copy of Scott's book. All of our chat then happens through Slack, which we use for both 1-1 and group text chats. There are stats built-in so I know I've sent just over 35,000 messages since we started using it about 5 months ago.
The upside to P2 as a core tool for me is that I'm in control of how I follow and receive updates. I follow about 50 internal sites and use email to keep up with posts and comments. Everything is routed in to 3 separate folders that group posts and comments by relative priority. For all this email I use Mail.app. It's the only mail client that's ever felt "right" to me. I can't stand Gmail on the web and get distracted by having email in my browser.
Safari is my primary browser. I had used Firefox for ages but with the release of Yosemite I've gone back to Safari. It's really clean and performance-wise I don't notice any difference. Plus, the only browser extension I rely upon is 1Password.
Like Daniel I'm a huge fan of Bartender. It keeps things so much more sane up in the menu bar. Up there I have a few things running:
- Caffeine. Prevents your display from sleeping. And, as a bonus, here's a retina-friendly icon set.
- Pomodoro Timer. I wrote a bit about this previously.
- Cloudup. For effortlessly sharing streams of images and video.
- Sidestep. For securely proxying my internet traffic.
- Flux. Amazingly useful tool to reduce eyestrain when using a computer at night.
I use Things to keep everything organized. For the last 6 months or so I was using Omnifocus. Along with the Yosemite upgrade I took a chance to re-evaluate my tools and decided Things just fit better for my usage. I've used it ever since the initial beta tests and have always found it fits my mental model of tasks pretty naturally.
Outside of tasks I use the native Calendar.app to stay scheduled. iCloud syncs everything over to my phone. For notes I use Simplenote for some things and FoldingText for others.
When I do need to code I use Coda. Any coding is just for personal projects and I find using Coda means I have just one tool to remember. It's not for everyone but it works wonderfully for me.
Divvy is always running in the background, helping me keep windows organized and arranged. There's something pleasing about having windows set to a grid.
I make sure to do some direct customer support once a week, too. I usually set aside one afternoon for that. It's always done with our live chat team, which uses Olark. They're good folks and the web-based chat client is pretty slick.
In terms of hardware I'm using a mid-2014 MacBook Pro, with the retina display of course. Spec-wise it's got 16 GB of RAM and a 256 GB SSD. Performance-wise it's more than I need most of the time, but I like using machines for quite a while. My last machine, an 11″ MacBook Air, lasted 3.5 years. I went with the 13″ model because the weight is pretty darn minimal. It's the only screen I use, too. I stopped using my Cinema Display after upgrading to this laptop. The biggest benefit here is that my home setup is identical to my travel setup in every way. Consistency is nice.
This all makes me think I should do a mobile-specific version of this post, too. Perhaps later.
Pomodoro Timer. I found this app a while ago and recently began using it more frequently. It's a simple, menu bar app that runs in the background. The goal is to help you deliberately break your work day up in to focused chunks. There are, of course, tons of variations on the theme. This one's the nicest mix of function and design.
My Labor Day weekend project was moving this site to Linode. It's all up and running now, along with a new Twenty Thirteen child theme I put together. Overall the process was pretty simple. Linode's default script for a LAMP stack worked well. From there I set up a multisite network, adjusted some virtual host records, and was on my way. The upside is that the site's now way, way faster than it used to be. Huzzah for SSDs.
What Is Public? Essay by Anil Dash that examines how both technology and media companies have a vested interest in us defining "public" as broadly as possible. The common misconception being that there's no singular definition of public; life is much more about the interplay of many publics.
With the exception of WordPress and VLC I can't think of a single, mainstream product that people just choose to use because it is better than the competition.
Change is bad unless it's great:
App developers need to be honest with themselves about whether a redesign is about solving a customer problem in a better way or is part of a corporate strategy.

As I floated around in the emptiness, not fully awake or asleep I saw the spirit, Vision. I accepted the invitation to the Race of Dreams, not knowing fully how I was going to get to this place called Pixie Hollow when suddenly, someone turned the gravity back on. I was free falling now, the light of the inside of Kingdom Hearts dying down enough that I could open my eyes.
I was looking at a new world beneath me, a giant oak tree surrounded by a beautiful meadow, one part seemed to be in an eternal winter for crying out loud. As I fell I passed someone, they were dressed in a purple dress with translucent wings. That was a fairy, I passed a fairy. Someone grabbed me just in time as the ground got closer, I turned to look at my savior.
"Are you crazy? Why didn't you open your wings?" Her right arm was covered by a metal gauntlet, sleeve, and pauldron, her left a leafy green sleeve and glove while the rest of her clothes matched the green sleeve, looking like it was made out of leaves. Her long hair was a light blue, getting darker fur down, her light green eyes looking into mine with annoyance and worry.
"I umm..." I looked down at my own clothes. They too seemed to be made out of leaves and grass save for my last wolf head pauldron, Warren was going to kill me when he saw his work got ruined. I then wondered how would it look if told her he had no clue how I got where I was now. "Sorry, my brain is a little scrambled." I soon felt the new appendages on my back, I concentrated on them to move and was happy when my wings began to come to life.
"Just be more careful. It'd be a shame for happen to a cutie like you." I blushed as she continued. "Your here for the race, right?" She asked, letting me fly on my own.
"Yes, my name is Josh. Thanks again for saving me miss."
She then gave me a once over then looked in my eyes again. "I'm Lexil. It's nice to meet you." It was then an hawk Heartless forced it's way through us, heading toward the tree. "Damn!" She growled charging after it. I went after her, struggling a little to catch up
"Why is it going after the tree?" I asked finally getting to her side.
"Could be a number of reasons, none of them most likely good. The best thing we can do is kill it before it hurts anyone." She then pulled out two Sai knives and looked at me. "If you have a weapon, you better pull it out now."
I summoned my keyblade as I followed her to the tree. Now that we were close enough I could see the tree was like a building, and the heartless was attacking the fairies inside. "We have have to help them." I said to her.
"We need to kill the Heartless, then find the princess. That's all." Lexil said. I grabbed her by the shoulder. "I'm going to help the fairies." He growled, flying past the heartless. The first fairy I got to was a short blonde, I have no idea why, but I some how knew who she was.
I helped her to her feet when I heard the cracking of a tree branch. I tried to freeze it blizzaga but I didn't have enough magic. I tried to shield her only to be shoved out of the way. Lexil helped the both of us up.
"Tinker bell, I'm Lexil, the guy holding you is Josh. Vision sent us to learn about resourcefulness."
"I wanted to try for something easier to teach you guys, but I guess I have to change my plans. I need you guys to figure out a way to get rid of this thing and help the trapped fairies." I looked at Lexil and we both flew up.
Lexil flew at the Heartless before we could even talk about a plan she attacked the creature throwing thunder and ice spells at the hawk. It dropped then flew back up for Lexil to repeat the process. The heartless hit her with a wind spell, throwing the both of us into a few of the vines which were pulled loose from the attack.
"Why didn't you attack with me?" she growled. This irritated me as I growled back.
"You didn't say anything about what you were planning. Now need to figure out how to beat this thing." I got free of the vines while she still struggled to get loose. I cut her free. "How do we pull that branch free and take it down?"
It was here, while she was holding the cut vine we both seemed to get the same idea.
"I'll distract it, you tie the vines." I said, flying at the Heartless." She nodded her head as we both split up.
The Heartless may be a weak one when I'm normal size, but at my small scale, it was a challenge. The Heartless threw me around with it's wind magic as I tried to block it's pecking and scratching. She flew at its leg as it pecked at me once again.
Once it was tied Lexil bombarded it with a spell mixing both ice and thunder magic. It fell a little, the branch moving a bit she did it again and I joined her, both of us put all we had into the spells throwing it to the ground, the branch moved, being thrown on top of the Heartless, destroying it.
We flew back to Tinker Belle, she and a few others were checking on the now freed fairies when she looked at us.
"You guys did it. Thank you so much, I am happy to say you both proved you have the virtue. Now you can move on to the other challenge." She said, going back to the hurt fairies.
I looked at Lexil who began to fly away. "Wait." I asked joining her side. "Please, form a team with me. We worked well together and I could really use your help." She stared at me for a moment then continued flying. I looked down as I began to feel dejected.
"Well are you coming or not." She called back. I smiled and joined her as we continued with the race.

AUSTIN, TexasA model for studying the genetics of Angelman syndrome, a neurological disorder that causes mental retardation and other symptoms in one out of 15,000 births, has been developed by biologists at The University of Texas at Austin.
Their research demonstrates that when a particular fruit fly gene, dube3a, is altered, the mutant flies show behavioral dysfunctions similar to those experienced by humans whose UBE3A gene doesn't function normally.
The work, led by Yaning Wu and Janice Fischer of the Section of Molecular Cell and Developmental Biology, is described in PNAS Early Edition online this week (Aug. 11-15), and will appear in the print version of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences later this month.
"People inherit Angelman syndrome as a mutant UBE3A gene that does not make UBE3A protein," says Fischer, a professor in the Institute for Cellular and Molecular Biology.
The UBE3A protein is an enzyme that attaches a small protein called ubiquitin to other proteins. Ubiquitin attachment signals that the tagged protein needs to be degraded.
"The simplest explanation for the disease biochemistry is that when UBE3A is not around to do its job, its substrates aren't being degraded like they should be, and these proteins build up and interfere with brain functions," Fischer says.
The symptoms of Angelman syndrome in humans include severe mental retardation, epileptic seizures and sleep disturbances.
The work Wu, Fischer and their collaborators have done over the last six years has involved engineering fruit flies with the appropriate mutations in their genes and also particular control transgenes.
The researchers ran the mutant flies through a series of tests, comparing their performances to control groups of flies whose dube3a genes functioned normally. Among other results, the mutant flies weren't able to climb as well up the sides of plastic containers, weren't

AvThe 2011 National Night Out celebration for Oakdale will be held on Tuesday, Aug. 2 in Burchell Park. The three-hour event starts at 5:30 p.m. and is open to all area residents.
Classifying it as "suspicious," the Oakdale Police Department is investigating the death of Michael Levi "Bobby" Fuller, 26, of Oakdale.
Local 4-H and FFA members had good results with their livestock and other exhibits at the Stanislaus County Fair, which ran July 15-24. Several Oakdale exhibitors brought home champion and reserve champion ribbons, as well as numerous other top class placings with their breeding and market stock. The local youth also had entries in the building exhibits that collected top prizes. For more details and photos, see the July 27 issue of The Oakdale Leader.
Put your cowboy boots and hats on and show your support for "The Cowboy Capital of the World" as Oakdale will be celebrating the 7th Annual National Day of the American Cowboy at the Oakdale Cowboy Museum on Saturday, July 23 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Complete with rainbow-colored parrots, trundling turtles and slithering snakes, the ever popular Rainforest Adventure exhibit is back, the carnival rides are even more stomach-churning than before, the young farmers' animal barns include a petting zoo and the stage shows range from circus slapstick such as Jest In Time to country singers like Clint Black.
Gregory Wellman has been appointed as interim city manager, starting on Aug. 1. The announcement came at Monday night's Oakdale City Council meeting, July 18.
The Turlock Mosquito Abatement District and Public Health Officials received notification that three mosquito samples taken in the Turlock area on July 8 were positive with the West Nile Virus (WNV), indicating that West Nile Virus (WNV) is active in Stanislaus County.
It's festa time.
Looking into the possibility of sharing police services, Riverbank and Oakdale councils have set a date of Monday, Aug. 29 in Riverbank City Council chambers for a joint study session on that topic.
The appointment of Oakdale's new part-time interim city manager, who will start Aug. 1, was announced at the Oakdale City Council meeting Monday night, July 18. Gregory Wellman retired last year after more than four decades in the public sector.
For more information, read the July 20 issue of The Oakdale Leader.
Not seeing the need to use public money for educational material for the upcoming sales tax measure, the Oakdale City Council on Monday, July 5 declined to fund a $9,500 contract for a private consultant to handle informative services and materials.
Joining a distinguished list of honorees over the past 30 years, Longtime Oakdale resident and businessman Robert "Bob" Gilbert was celebrated as "2011 Agriculturalist of the Year" by the State of California.
Oakdale FFA members and local 4-H club members are preparing their projects to exhibit at the Centennial of the Stanislaus County Fair that runs July 15-24.
Saying goodbye is always hard, but particularly so when you're saying it to people who are less like coworkers and more like family.

($75; bottled in June of 2008) More exotic and more tropical on the nose than the 2007, hinting at butterscotch and honeyed high tones. Fat and sweet, but with a slightly bitter edge to its honeyed flavor. Less fleshy and fruity than the 2007, and currently conveying less minerality too.

We're leaving together,
But still it's farewell
And maybe we'll come back,
To Earth, who can tell?
I guess there is no one to blame
We're leaving ground
Will things ever be the same again?
It's the final countdown
The final countdown
We're heading for Venus and still we stand tall
Cause maybe they've seen us and welcome us all
With so many light years to go and things to be found
I'm sure that we'll all miss her so.

2009 NFL Draft Pro Day Results
Pro Day Date: March 30, 2009
South Carolina
Emanuel Cook, SS/FS, South Carolina
Height: 5-10. Weight: 201.
Projected 40 Time: 4.49.
Combine 40 Time: 4.64.
Pro Day 40 Time: 4.57.
Benchx225: . Vertical: 32.
Projected Round (2009): 4-5.
Emanuel Cook was academically ineligible for the team's winter practice game, and consequently couldn't play in the TGIFriday's Bowl.
An All-SEC second-teamer, Emanuel Cook finished his junior campaign with 87 tackles.
Emmanuel Cook's height may hurt his draft stock, but his dynamic play makes up for it. Despite missing two contests in 2007, Cook recorded 92 tackles, eight tackles for loss and four sacks.
Jamon Meredith, OT, South Carolina
Height: 6-5. Weight: 304.
Projected 40 Time: 5.04.
Combine 40 Time: 5.03.
Pro Day 40 Time: DNP.
Benchx225: 31. Arm: 34 1/2.
Projected Round (2009): 1-2.
Jason Meredith was having a solid season before getting dinged up with an ankle injury in a home loss to LSU.
An athletic lineman who started every game as a junior and four contests as a sophomore in the tough SEC.
Captain Munnerlyn, CB, South Carolina
Height: 5-9. Weight: 186.
Projected 40 Time: 4.35.
Combine 40 Time: 4.53.
Pro Day 40 Time: 4.41.
Benchx225: . Vertical: 36.5.
Projected Round (2009): 3-4.
Captain Munnerlyn's stock has slipped, as his play has regressed amid speculation that he's not trying hard. I'm not sure if that's true or not, but it's pretty much a lock that Munnerlyn will declare early. He has 40 tackles, two TFL, two sacks and five passes broken up.
A great combine could boost Munnerlyn's stock again.
A member of the All-SEC First Team, Captain Munnerlyn recorded 47 tackles and three interceptions as a mere sophomore. He has an excellent 40, and like Trevard Lindley, he could move himself into first-round consideration with another solid season.
Lawrence Sidbury, DE/OLB, Richmond
Height: 6-3. Weight: 265.
Projected 40 Time: 4.75.
Combine 40 Time: 4.64.
Benchx225: 28. Vertical: 35.
Projected Round (2009): 2-3.
Even unofficially (the official times are obviously screwed up), Lawrence Sidbury ran one of the quickest 40s at the 2009 NFL Combine. He really helped himself on a day in which numerous defensive linemen disappointed.
An All-CAA First Team member, Lawrence Sidbury had 14.5 TFL and 6.5 sacks for national champion Richmond.
Lawrence Sidbury should be able to play in any scheme. He had eight tackles for loss and 4.5 sacks in 13 starts last season.
Josh Vaughan, RB, Richmond
Height: 5-11. Weight: 224.
Projected 40 Time: 4.70.
Pro Day 40 Time: 4.59.
Benchx225: 36. Vertical: 37. Broad: 9-11.
Projected Round (2009): 6-7.
Jovan Belcher, DE/OLB, Maine
Height: 6-1. Weight: 243.
Projected 40 Time: 4.83.
Pro Day 40 Time: 4.88.
Benchx225: 19. Vertical: 30.
Projected Round (2009): FA.
John Nalbone, TE, Monmouth
Height: 6-4. Weight: 257.
Projected 40 Time: 4.74.
Pro Day 40 Time: 4.63.
Benchx225: 22. Vertical: 30.
Projected Round (2009): 7-FA.
Coastal Carolina
Whittmin Reese, CB, Coastal Carolina
Height: 5-9. Weight: 196.
Projected 40 Time: 4.46.
Pro Day 40 Time: 4.44.
Benchx225: 14. Vertical: 36.5.
Projected Round (2009): 7-FA.

James Cawley returns to NV as Kirk!
BREAKING NEWS : James Cawley will be returning to the role of James T. Kirk for A SPECIAL EPISODE of STAR TREK: NEW VOYAGES! (note: we said New Voyages, Not Phase II!) The story will take place during what would have been the second season of TOS. This in no way affects or changes the plans of PHASE II, and it's current star Brian Gross.
This is also not any Phase II or New Voyages started or planned episode/vignette. It's something entirely new...
Keep watching for more information...
Re: James Cawley returns to NV as Kirk!
Hmm, is his ego maybe regretting giving up the role?
It's a shame. Brian Gross is an improvement. Cawley never suited the role in my opinion and with solid competition now in the form of ST Continues I would've thought you guys would be going all out to have the best casting choices to outdo everyone else, rather than retread old ground.
Well, good luck anyhow.
Re: James Cawley returns to NV as Kirk!
Tacky, Smoked. Plain tacky.
Re: James Cawley returns to NV as Kirk!
Honesty is the best policy. If people go around kissing each other's butts all day purely for reasons of politeness then people will have to reason to try and improve and improve.
Surely it is in the interest of Phase II to be the best of the fan films out there? What better to help achieve that than audience feedback?
Re: James Cawley returns to NV as Kirk!
Did you not read the announcement? Brian Gross is STILL Phase II's Kirk. This is a special, extra episode that has nothing to do with Phase II.
geez...you think fans would celebrate even more Trek being produced.
as to STC being "solid competition"...that's rather funny. The stuff they borrowed from Farragut Films (which was all built because of James Cawley's help to get off the ground - sets, costumes and props) yes. But the acting is entirely laughable parody. James, a professional performer and actor for over two decades, can act circles around the best of them just sitting on a toilet...
Re: James Cawley returns to NV as Kirk!
Re: James Cawley returns to NV as Kirk!
It'll be interesting to see James back in the center seat. My frustrations in his performance weren't with all the cheap shots usually hurled at him. Rather I was frustrated that his performance was often pushed into moments of imitation, where he mimicked Shatner (looking at you "Blood and Fire"). I've always wanted to see him make Kirk his own. He'd get so close and then be asked to slip into imitation.
Hopefully, he'll get this chance in this NEW VOYAGES episode. If this is James' last turn as Kirk, let's really unleash his performance and let him own the role completely. And in a script that has Kirk driving the action rather than reacting to it.
(An aside: Would be wonderful if Jeff Quinn returned as Spock. Always liked his take on our favorite Vulcan, especially in WEaT. He played well off Doc John, who's performance is the one I enjoy most on PII because of sincerity Doc John puts into it.)
Re: James Cawley returns to NV as Kirk!
Cool news. I like him.
Is he shooting new footage or are you guys putting out existing footage that has previously been shot* under the New Voyages banner?
*"Mind Sifter" is the example that springs to mind.
Re: James Cawley returns to NV as Kirk!
I have no loyalty to either production and am not involved in fan films at all. I just see what I see when I see episodes and/or clips. I thought the acting in Continues was, for the most part, superior to Phase II, including their Kirk. Their only poor choices, in my view, were Spock and McCoy, who were woeful. Phase II's current Spock and McCoy are superior casting choices in these roles. Having said that I just watched the Kitumba teaser and I thought that everyone in it was delivering appalling performances, including the guest stars. It was almost amateurish.
I absolutely respect and appreciate the effort that goes into these productions and the sets, costumes, effects and scripts are fantastic. But the acting and casting is not, and that applies to both Phase II and STC (and, indeed, some of the other efforts out there). Since I, as a fan for nearly 40 years, am the target audience, I don't think it's unreasonable to given an honest and unbiased appraisal.
As for STC taking things developed by JC, I don't know anything about that I'm afraid. I just see what's on screen.
Re: James Cawley returns to NV as Kirk!
Re: James Cawley returns to NV as Kirk!
Re: James Cawley returns to NV as Kirk!
There are dozens of original series era fan films. Take a peek: http://startrekreviewed.blogspot.com/2009/06/2.html Blogs 20 through 55 all have fan film producers who have produced Fan Trek set at the time of the original series or the original series' movies. That doesn't include short films, or very old films, e.g. http://startrekreviewed.blogspot.com/2009/06/204.html (See also other lists in Blogs 205-208), and many more are in the works. The fight about this is dumb. The TOS sets in upstate New York could probably be used to produce more than a dozen films a year, and there are sets in Georgia and Oklahoma which are also very good, there is a lower quality set on Long Island and a movie era set, in Albany, Ga. Then there are green screen productions. Geez Louise, one person playing Kirk at this point no more means another won't than one person playing Hamlet means another won't.
Re: James Cawley returns to NV as Kirk!
Re: James Cawley returns to NV as Kirk!
I admit, I haven't been much of a fan film viewer for more than a few years, but aren't there more episodes starring Cawley that haven't been released yet?
For fans of Cawley, it's nice that he's doing one more, but as the saying goes, you have to go away to come back.
Re: James Cawley returns to NV as Kirk!
First off, this thread should not even be here. But, since it is about me I will add my two cents. Me doing this role one more time is about me getting to share some time with some cherished friends and nothing more. There is no drive or competition between myself and anyone else. As to what anyone else is doing with their, time, money and talents, I don't give a s#%T! I have had my fill of this type of thing on Trek boards. Sniping at others for doing something they like to do is just plain RIDICULOUS! AND PEOPLE SHOULD BE ASHAMED.

Radeon R7 265 pairs 2GB of GDDR5 memory with a 256-bit bus
AMD is relentless in its assault on the graphics card market, especially the budget and mid-range tiers as represented by the Radeon R7 Series. Today AMD added to the heap by announcing the Radeon R7 265 , the highest-end model in the R7 Series and a seemingly tantalizing option at $149 MSRP. As things are starting to get a little crowded in this segment, AMD is dropping the price of the Radeon R7 260X to $119.
Before we go on, let's take a quick glance at the Radeon R7 Series. From top to bottom, here's what it looks like:
Two of those cards are new launches -- the Radeon R7 250X, which AMD officially introduced on Monday , and today's debut of the 265.
The Radeon R7 265 flexes 1,024 stream processors, an engine clock of up to 925MHz, and 2GB of GDDR5 memory on a 256-bit bus running at up to 5.6Gbps. It serves up 1.89 TFLOPS of compute performance, a bit higher than the Radeon HD 7850 that it's rumored to be based on. Compared to the R7 260X, AMD says the 265 is about 25 percent faster.
AMD's newest graphics card requires just a single 6-pin PCI-E connector and draws 150W (typical) of power. It supports CrossFire, DirectX 11.2, OpenGL 4.3, Eyefinity, and Mantle.
The Radeon R7 265 will be available in late February. AMD says several board partners have silicon ready to go, including Sapphire, PowerColor, XFX, Asus, Gigabyte, MSI, HIS, and Club 3D.

As its name describes, the invisibleSHIELD is a tough, clear film that will shieldyour Nikon Coolpix L14 protecting it from unsightly scratches. Not only will it protect your device, the invisibleSHIELD itself does not scratch so your device will always look like it did the day you bought it.

The Shape of Utility Functions and Organizational Behavior
Based on measurements among 332 owner-managers, we investigate how the global shape of the utility function (i.e., S-shaped versus concave or convex over the total range of outcomes) relates to choice behavior. We find that the global shape of the utility function differs across decision makers (about one-third of the owner-managers exhibit an S-shaped utility function) and that the global shape is linked to organizational behavior (i.e., the production system employed), a result that does not change when using different methods to identify the decision maker's global shape of the utility function. The decision maker's risk attitude (risk averse or risk seeking) does not affect the choice of the production system. Whereas the degree of risk aversion, based on the local shape of the utility function, may be important in explaining owner-managers' trading behavior (Pennings and Smidts 2000), more structural organizational behavior appears to be linked to the global shape of the utility function.

Kanon (2006)
QUOTE(Anime News Network)
Yuichi Aizawa returns to this city after seven years. In his childhood, he often visited it, but something happend in the past which caused him to block out his memories of the events of seven years ago. On the day after he gets settled in, he meets a girl carrying a backpack with wings on it. Her name is Tsukimiya Ayu and he begins to recall the memories he had lost.
Ouran Koukou Host Club
Haruhi is a poor tomboyish student at a school for the ultra-wealthy, able to attend because of a scholarship, and unable to even afford a uniform. One day, she stumbles across the decidedly peculiar but very popular Ouran Host Club. She tries to leave, but accidentally breaks a vase, and unable to pay for it, she's told that she'll have to stay and do odd jobs. That is, until they decide she would be more valuable as a club member. Not realizing she's female due to her appearance, they fix her up and give her a male uniform. She's an instant hit, so they decide to have her keep up the charade even after they find out the truth. Haruhi, being average almost to a fault, doesn't know what to make of the unconventional activities of the Host Club (or of the even more unconventional members), but having little choice, she plays along. Before long, real bonds are formed, friends made, and Haruhi finds herself accepted in a way she could never have been otherwise in this affluent school.
Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge (aka Perfect Girl Evolution, The Wallflower)
Kyouhei, Ranmaru, Takenaga, and Yukinojou are beautiful, handsome, young men living in a huge mansion. One day, their landlord, whom they call "Auntie", asks them a favor: to make her niece, Sunako, who's going to be living with them, into a respectable young lady. She agrees to make their living expenses free of charge if they succeed but, if they fail, she'll triple their rent. Due to their confidence in knowing how to deal with women, they agree but, once they meet Sunako, they begin to realize that their lovely living arrangements may soon be in jeopardy.

Recently, I have received some comments that suggest that the blog has become a little too serious. I mean, what is funnier than the Information Technology profession, right?
I accept that critique and offer, today, a comic as the Information Technology Thought of the Day.
The credit for this wonderful comic is embedded in the image. You can find this comic along with a lot more about IT here: http://www.indiaonrent.com/view/i/information-technology-funny-cartoons.html#
Besides just being funny, though, it brings to light one of the most frequent complaints of my users – the necessity of strong, long passwords that are changed frequently. When will we finally get password-less security based safely on biometrics and/or tokens? I guess that we can all wish together….
What do you think? Do you know of any good IT comic sites? Do you have any IT jokes to share?

Hundreds gathered at a bandstand and Jumbotron set up in Cadman Plaza Park in Brooklyn on Saturday to hear advocates, politicians and entertainers call on the government to "Keep the Promise" on AIDS funding in New York City. Speakers said a recent $2.7 million budget cut as a result of sequestration will mean 68,000 fewer HIV tests in the city.
On Monday, April 15, St. Francis College will present "The Rainbow Bridge of Light: Voices From the Universe," featuring poetry and prose by members of Professor Mitch Levenberg's senior citizens writing class.

For those who need assistance with their tax returns, a program offered by the Brooklyn-based non-profit group St. John's Bread & Life could be the answer.

Roughly 500 supporters chanting "Health care, not condos!" joined nurses, doctors and elected leaders in Red Hook for a march to Long Island College Hospital (LICH), to keep the Cobble Hill institution open.
While the hospital serves a swath of Brooklyn from Red Hook to Williamsburg, Red Hook residents say their lives depend on LICH; the neighborhood is designated a "Health Professional Shortage Area" by the US Department of Health and Human Services.
