Wedding Time

A good friend just bought the wedding band sets and has been ready since being engaged for a few months. What amazes me is how much he spent vs what I spent. We spendt about the same and his looks better. I would expect that inflation would make mine better. Well I hope you have a good day.

Uhm becasue I would rather have chocolate cake with mustard than a Windows machine "Jeff Atwood at Coding Horror is trying to figure out why the battery life for devices running Windows is so much worse than similar (or identical) devices running other operating systems. For example, the Surface Pro 2 made great strides over the original Surface Pro, increasing web-browsing battery life by 42%, but it still lags far behind Android and iOS tablets. The deficit doesn't get any better when Windows is run on Apple hardware. Atwood says, 'Microsoft positions Windows 8 as an operating system that's great for tablets, which are designed for casual web browsing and light app use – but how can that possibly be true when Windows idle power management is so much worse than the competition's desktop operating system in OS X – much less their tablet and phone operating system, iOS?' Anand Lal Shimpi is perplexed, too. Atwood is now reaching out to the community for answers: 'None of the PC vendors he spoke to could justify it, or produce a Windows box that managed similar battery life to OS X. And that battery life gap is worse today – even when using Microsoft's own hardware, designed in Microsoft's labs, running Microsoft's latest operating system released this week. Microsoft can no longer hand wave this vast difference away based on vague references to "poorly optimized third party drivers." ... I just wish somebody could explain to me and Anand why Windows is so awful at managing idle power.'"

Hippie music

I have been conned into playing, well not really conned it just took some convincing. Sone kids at the school who are wanna be hipster want me to go with them to the coffee place and play on open mic night. They want to do old hippie songs that I play. So I am in need of some new for my ole tennesse flat top box. Well maybe I should post some video of this. I am sure there will be some on youtube. Have a great day.

Now if we could get the govt to agree

"Nissan today said it will begin demonstrating autonomous vehicle technology on its all-electric Leaf this year, and plans to begin selling multiple models of self-driving cars by 2020. Nissan said it's already building an autonomous drive proving ground in Japan. Its goal is availability across the model range within two vehicle generations. The car company, which is among several others and Google in developing autonomous driving tech, is currently working with top universities, including MIT, Stanford, Carnegie Mellon, Oxford and The University of Tokyo, to develop its self-drive technology."

Uhm yeah.

So some of my students are looking at taking up instruments this year. So some are looking for beginner flute. The ones who are really wanting to do it . . . they have to work at concessions. They want an easy way out and play in the pep band. Well I hope you have a good day.

Almost funny

Well if this is not a barrel of monkeys.

"An outbreak of measles tied to a Texas megachurch where ministers have questioned vaccination has sickened at least 21 people, including a 4-month-old infant — and it's expected to spread further, state and federal health officials said. 'There's likely a lot more susceptible people,' said Dr. Jane Seward, the deputy director for the viral diseases division at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. ... All of the cases are linked to the Eagle Mountain International Church in Newark, Texas, where a visitor who'd traveled to Indonesia became infected with measles – and then returned to the U.S., spreading it to the largely unvaccinated church community, said Russell Jones, the Texas state epidemiologist. ... Terri Pearsons, a senior pastor of Eagle Mountain International said she has had concerns about possible ties between early childhood vaccines and autism. In the wake of the measles outbreak, however, Pearsons has urged followers to get vaccinated and the church has held several vaccination clinics. ... 'In this community, these cases so far are all in people who refused vaccination for themselves and their children,' [Steward] added. The disease that once killed 500 people a year in the U.S. and hospitalized 48,000 had been considered virtually eradicated after a vaccine introduced in 1963. Cases now show up typically when an unvaccinated person contracts the disease abroad and spreads it upon return to the U.S."

What we find.

I ama amazed at how some of the changes can get people. One of my really good friends who is the the business of appliance packages has had made lots of changes. He has been getting help from others on these business changes. However, it all makes me wonder how easy it will be for future people to enter a new business. I hope that you have a really good day
