BUILDING A JOB STREAM
27 Sep 2006,4:12 pmThis title could be a little misleading. I was not thinking of a job as in position, but rather a component of a data warehouse. In venturing further into this area, I get to start piecing things together and learning how to appropriately do so. It can be frustrating but at the same time rewarding to see what you can do with this kind of (powerful) tool. When it comes to BI, it is important to have the data in a workable but meaningful format. This happens with greater ease when you have a

10 Jun 2006,10:08 amGreetings from a hotel room in...I don't know where I am, precisely. It's close enough to Philadelphia that you can call it "the Philadelphia area," but far enough away that if you flew into Philadelphia International on just two or three hours' sleep and someone picks you up from the airport, you can get in a good nap before you arrive.

AB Mailbag - Viral Kittens
17 May 2006,7:32 am I got an email this morning from Jonathan Crouch of the UK photography studio Purple 13 . Jonathan’s partner (which I think means girlfriend or wife, not just business partner) Mandy Collins is a talented photographer, Jonathan frequently updates the site content to reflect her latest work. Jonathan also worked hard on SEO, getting Mandy’s name and Purple 13 to the top of the most important organic search results for her keywords. His rationale was that people would not remember the...
The Big Show
10 May 2006,4:12 pmI'm thrilled to be an ESPN Insider for one reason: access to the Dan Patrick Show archive on ESPN Radio. Hearing him reunited with Keith Olbermann is fantastic. Their collaboration is truly a situation where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. I just wish I knew which, if any, radio station in the Providence area carried ESPN Radio programming....

4 Mar 2006,7:08 pmI'm still alive. The vomitting came back full force (pun intended) yesterday. So I am trying to deal with that while holding my side so my hernia doesn't decide to get worse. You know what love is? I'll tell you anyway. Love is ~ * cleaning the apartment everyday for the 9 days (so far) when you know your significant other hates a mess and can't do it. * helping her to the bathroom, back to the couch, into bed etc. * rubbing her back while she vomits, washing her face, changing her pj's into cle...
You guys won...
1 Mar 2006,7:05 pmOk, I went and let the doctor push my insides out through my back..er... I mean, examine me. He is fairly certain it is not my appendix, he thinks I have a hernia. Lovely. I can barely move right now, he is giving me 48 hours to see if the pain subsides, if it doesn't I am to go directly to the ER and be admitted. Fuck. ~ Inguinal hernias are protrusions of abdominal cavity contents through an area of the abdominal wall, commonly referred to as the groin, and known in anatomic language as the in...
Fucked up post...
1 Mar 2006,6:33 amWell, I can barely sit here...the vomitting has subsided, however, for two days I have had "pain" in my lower, right-ovary area. I put pain in quotations because this "pain" is something I have never experienced in my entire life. So, I thought I might have strained muscles from all the heaving - sorry, I know that's gross. The pain kinda shoots across my lower tummy - but, only if I move. If I stay ever so still, the pain is "ok". Being a doctor myself (pure sarcasm there of course) I decided t...

21 Feb 2006,1:05 amI can feel fine for one minute then be shaking the next. I don't know what to do. where to go. I don't know how to let people help me, I realized. If you know a good psych/therapist/whatever in the Suffolk area, alert me. Mine isn't working out. Talking about it doesn't do a damn thing, rather, recollecting things simply makes it worse.
Mardi Gras Indians Tribes
15 Nov 2005,12:15 pmFor years the Krewes of Carnival in New Orleans had always been segregated, until the locals who couldn't participate started their own ceremonies. They designed big elaborate costumes that were inspired by the Native American chiefs. They became known by locals as the Mardi Gras Indians. Each area of town started 'krewes' of their own that they named after either the ward that the lived in or the name of their gang. Now there are 40 known tribes in New Orleans.
Summer is Over
17 Aug 2005,12:46 pmWow I haven't updated this thing in forever. Well today is the last day of summer. School starts tomorrow. I will be a senior. You would think I would be ecstatic about now but I'm not. I'm dreading it. Dreading being around the immature people I will have to spend my days with. Dreading the amount of time I won't get to spend with Johann. It's hard you know. Only being apart from someone when you are in bed sleeping, then it suddenly getting switched. It is such a bummer when you look at it tha...

perhaps improv
22 May 2005,11:24 amI have decided that I LOVE improv and I am thinking that this may be an area in theater that I would want to work in. I think it would be cool to be in an improv group that travels around to high schools. The reason I think that that would be cool is because sometimes people in improv rely on vulgarity to the point where it is not funny anymore. Granted the first one or two times it is a hoot and a half but after a while it is just gross and not funny, so if you are around an audience where some...

Soulmate
17 Nov 2004,10:07 pm Once upon a time, there was a teacher and his student lying down under a big tree near a big grass area. Then, suddenly, the student asked the teacher. *Student :* Teacher, I'm confused, how can we find our soul-mate? Can you please help me? *Teacher : *(Silent for few second, than he answer) Well, it's a pretty hard and easy question. *Student :* (Thinking hard) Huh??? *Teacher :* Look on that way, there are a lot of grass there, why don't you walk there but please never walk backward, just wa...

10 May 2004,9:30 pm gnome-games The 2.7.1 release is ready to go, hopefully tonight there will be a place to actually upload it to. There is a hideous number of new features in this release, the most recent being a new score dialog for gnomine. If it goes down well I'll use it for all the games. Another big change is that gnometris now supports drag-and-drop for setting the background image. In fact this is now the only way to set the background. At the moment it doesn't work that well, it only seems to work with ...

18 Mar 2004,5:25 amI really should write more often. Anyway, things are looking good in the GNOME 2.6 translations area. Even though I often complain about it I'm not entirely sure we've actually had more string freeze breakages this time around than before. Sometimes they just come in a single swoop (when people suddenly realize there is a freeze and they need/want to break it because of bug fixes) and we appear to be drowning in both actual string freeze breakages and breakage requests, while other times several...
Changes in the Workspaces releases area
15 Mar 2004,12:03 pm As I mentioned last week , the Workspaces on GotDotNet are going to see a few changes tomorrow. There will be some downtime while the modifications are made across the site but expect all data to remain intact. Some of the changes on the way in the releases section: Per-release download count .See how many people are downloadingyour releases. No more zero-byte/corrupt downloads . While 308090 remains, we've changed the download page to work around these problems. No morePassport sign-in for...
Workspaces bug tracker changes coming soon
9 Mar 2004,4:40 pm Watch out for some improvements in the Workspaces bug tracker next week (Tuesday 3/16/04). Find that bug It’s true, the querying power in today’s bug tracker leaves somewhat to be desired. As the bug count rises, it can become increasingly difficult to track down a particular bug, even though you know so many details about it. That’s about to change. The new query builder lets you construct a query from basic clauses. Using boolean AND and OR operators, you can create marvelou...
Renaissance?
29 Sep 2003,4:37 pm I have a feeling that I may be getting back to blogging. But I'll believe it when I see it :) I basically took the summer off because I was busy at other things. Summers are like that. Now it is autumn again and it is getting colder out here in Calgary so I am doing less bike riding and thus have a little more free time lol. (I laughed because I've been unemployed for a while now.) I'm not sure how this blog will turn out this season. I am thinking of changing the content. I will keep doing li...
