The My Wife Has Cancer Blog. Sunday, April 25, 2010. In my eighth grade year I played Captain von Trapp in our school's version of the play The Sound of Music. Near the end of the play, just before they escape Nazi Austria, the Trapp Family children sing " So Long, Farewell. It's a long goodbye. With that disclaimer, the author of this blog, George E.

brent auernheimer: Espionage, and cats
http://auernhei.blogspot.com/2011/07/espionage-and-cats.html
Saturday, July 30, 2011. Espionage, and cats. Did you see the Nat Geo Wild documentary on our local Cat House on the Kings? Great place to adopt a pet. Here's some good pictures. And a video overview:. And here's an excerpt about a kitten whose mother was fed only ramen noodles:. He is on this week's Charlie Rose, and a link to his books. Another UCSB large-lecturer who impressed me was "public" historian Robert L. Kelley. At their last lectures. Espionage, and cats. Computer Science at Fresno State.

brent auernheimer: September 2010

Tuesday, September 07, 2010. Had a CT scan and lost a band of hair? Oh man, another. Radiation treatment system gone wrong. Back in the day of the Therac-25 one suggestion was to pry the offending key off the keyboard. Now if you lose a strip of hair after a CT scan maybe you'll be offered a wig. And the pictures of patients are amazing) from "After Stroke Scans, Patients Face Serious Health Risks" from the NY Times:. Monday, September 06, 2010. Stuff from the cog psych world. Instead of sticking to one ...

Thursday, April 07, 2011. Weeping asterisks and flying snowflakes. I'm sometimes puzzled by "universal" street signs and button-icons. In my HCI class I have the students guess the meaning of the icon bar from my credit union's bill pay interface. No one gets close to the right answer. An article in Slate about the incomprehensibility of European appliance interfaces. Reminded me of Don Norman's CACM column. Simplicity is highly overrated") and response. The complex expensive toaster? I bet it sells well.

brent auernheimer: It was just floating around, who's to say who owns it?
http://auernhei.blogspot.com/2011/06/it-was-just-floating-around-whos-to-say.html
Thursday, June 16, 2011. It was just floating around, who's to say who owns it? James Oberg's take on space programs (not just NASA). With the last flight almost here, the most recent IEEE Spectrum. Has Oberg's "12 Space Shuttle Missions That Weren't". I like 1980's proposed "Satellite Snatch" (I've emphasized my favorite line):. The shuttle was built to enable this, but the idea was soon abandoned. Read the entire list here. That was being refurbished to support launch of space shuttles into polar.

brent auernheimer: Holiday parades as predictors of rocket launches
http://auernhei.blogspot.com/2007/12/holiday-parades-as-predictors-of-rocket.html
Saturday, December 08, 2007. Holiday parades as predictors of rocket launches. Tonight after watching the Reedley High School marching band. At the Orange Cove electric parade. We turned around and saw a Delta II launch of Italian COSMO SkyMed-2. Satellites. You can see more than you ever wanted to know, down to the second, about the launch by downloading the mission booklet. But I really like the real-time blogs. Polar launches from Vandenberg. I'm glad you asked). The highest inclination mission was 62...
