Pregnancy Update
I just realized I haven't posted about the new baby in a while. We have decided to go to the same midwife that we had for Jonathan's birth. She is very excited and our first appointment will be in the middle of December. I am now 9 weeks along which means that the baby is 7 weeks old. He (I... (More)

Merant OpenMake
Since we paid for the professional license, we get OpenMake for "free", so I figured I would try it out. The conclusion is that it isn't worth anything.The longer version is that it, like all Merant products, is quite hard to actually get up and running. When the manual says, "you aren't... (More)

GnuCash / Debian update
I guess I am asking for it, running the gnucash source (1.8.9), but running everything else from Debian testing. I upgraded like usual, somewhere around every week, and didn't think anything of it, because aptitude/Debian always takes care of everything for me. But yesterday, Heather... (More)

SMTP Authentication
Like so many other articles on this subject, I will start by saying that I looked at various documents, but none of them worked perfectly for me, so I will write up my own steps. Most of the regular readers of this blog will not care at all about SMTP authentication, TLS, SSL, port 25, 465, 587,... (More)

House in NH
Mom found this house while canoeing in the Merrimack River, and thinks it is just perfect for us. It does look great! There is a lot of land (13 acres) and a lovely place for the Black Rabbit to launch from. We have gotten used to Pittsburgh housing prices, so anything is a shock, but this... (More)

Sailboat Updates
There have been a number of things we wanted to work better on the Flying Junior, but mostly because it is hard to find a sailboat store in Pittsburgh, we hadn't gotten around to it.The wind spinner is fairly old, and after the capsize, didn't spin as well as it used to, and in the process of...

Routine Ultrasounds Are Harmful
My friend gave me an update on our mutual friend whose baby is due next week. The doctors want to induce now, a week early, "because the baby has lost weight." How do they know this? By ultrasound. Which can be wrong by a pound or more in either direction. Another friend had a similar... (More)

Mail Statistics
It is a new month, and therefore, a new point on my email graph . A couple interesting things this month: one, you can tell I went on vacation, and probably also that I knew Heather was gone the week before, so I wasn't emailing her as much either. Two, spam has now hit the 30% mark (note: the... (More)

Robins
In my research on robins, I found this spectacular site called A Robin's Diary with videos and day-by-day updates. I picked a great time to take photos of our nest today - the parents had just come back from worm hunting when I got inside. I haven't put the pictures on the computer yet, but... (More)

Email Random Signature Generation
I wrote a random signature generator for Pine, my email client. It worked great for a number of years, but with a recent upgrade of Pine, it started having trouble a couple of times a day, where the signature would be correctly rotated, but Pine would hang prior to sending the message, and would...

Yet Another Delay
When I said a year ago that maybe Jonathan would be in college by the time this was all done, I was joking, but apparently, it might come true.I got a note from Vicki today saying that the defense filed for pre-trial motions, and the judge agreed. So, the pre -trial meeting will happen on... (More)

Bits Update
Jonathan continues to love the butterflies. We're almost finished with Van Gogh. We started some mammals, which he likes, too. He likes geography as long as I don't spend too much time on it. We finished with states a while back, did continents, and are now working on countries in Africa. We... (More)

Light Beer
We went late to a party the other week and also stayed late to help clean up. It turns out that this year the guests were not beer drinkers, so the host had lots left over. He was not unhappy about that, but he did have a few bottles of light beer that he lamented still having. I offered to... (More)
