Good news for any PM who’s also a Mac person in a sea of Windows users. The Omni Group’s OmniPlan is in beta, with an expected price tag of US$149. The best part of all (other than being a sweet-looking Mac app, of course):
OmniPlan can open and save Microsoft Project files natively
That should smooth some […]
This week I’m exploring del.icio.us. If you’re a user and have some tips, feel free to drop ‘em in comments here.
Along with playing with my friends in sci-fi and otherwise impossible scenarios [Halo 2, Chromehounds], much of my enjoyment in playing video games comes from doing things that I’ll never have the skill, guts or money to do in reality.
Driving a Lamborghini Murciélago R-GT at 150+ mph through the streets of New York City […]
Start with a pint or so of John D. MacDonald’s Travis McGee, mix in a quarter-cup of Clive Cussler’s Dirk Pitt and you just might end up with a refreshing drink of Doc Ford.
Well, you or I might not, but thankfully Randy Wayne White did. Don’t get me wrong, this isn’t some cheap MacDonald […]
When it’s a menu - or at least acting like one.
I guess enough people have complained about Office 2007’s ribbon taking up too much room, so this week Jensen’s written a post (so I don’t have to) about minimizing the ribbon. When minimized into Tabs it acts quite menu-like, albeit with more graphical elements […]
I downloaded and installed Internet Explorer version 7 (IE7), beta 3 (replacing beta 2); the install appeared to go without hitch and most websites I visit are displaying correctly.
I just went to Google Maps though, and something odd’s happening there. I’d copied an address from another window, and every time I try to paste into […]
People have been carrying and drinking water for how long now? Like, forever right?
For Mike and others who may be interested, I point you to Daniel’s tale of water bottles. I’ve been a long-time user and fan of Nalgene bottles, though I’ve never tried to put one on a bike. They’re practically indestructible and […]
Summer break’s over for these guys and gals, who are already working hard preparing for the fall season of halftime shows and competitions. Practice started for the drumline and color guard last week, with sessions from 9am through 9pm. The full band arrived this week, and they all have practice right up until the first […]
Has it really been 18 years already? My, how time flies.
Happy Birthday, James!
I indicated last week that I finally got my Xbox 360, so the obvious follow-up question is ‘what games am I playing?’ First of all there’s plenty of life left in Halo 2 and other “Xbox 180″ games, and they look better than ever played through the 360 on my HD display.
The future’s in […]
Last night my wife and I went for a walk around Hembree Park. It was a beautiful evening, with twilight fading and just a faint breeze. Here are a couple of pictures of the wildlife along the path

Something untoward is afoot. There is a pestilence upon this land. Nothing is sacred.
Alwin’s having “fun” with the net too, his long-held ahawkins.net domain’s all boogered up (technical term, that), so you can find his shingle hanging at alwinism.org for the time being at least.
I’m disappointed in the Alpharetta city services today, specifically the garbage collection done by BFI, now owned by Allied Waste Industries. The photos here are what’s left on our street after the collectors came through.
The blue box and white styrofoam are from the new ceiling fan, freshly installed yesterday. I can understand them perhaps […]
A bit o’ what Commander Dave would call a Cheese Sandwich post today - just a slice of life. Today’s task is to purchase and install a new ceiling fan to replace the one that broke last night. The darn thing had been threatening me for long enough and I finally bumped it and it […]
John Porcaro’s weblog looks fine tonight, nothing odd. The state of his feed is a completely different matter though.
Behind his back, someone’s done a dasterdly deed - replacing John’s xml (normally provided in a proper fashion by the folks at FeedBurner) with their own. A file full of vile stuff - adverts for phenobarbital, […]
