Sophia Dembling has a different style of travelling, and she’s tired of hiding it:
Introversion and extroversion are inborn traits, and the difference between them is not that one is gregarious and at ease in the world and the other shy and awkward. Rather, extroverts are outwardly motivated and gain energy from interaction with the outside world while introverts are more inwardly directed and drained by interaction with others. Introverts’ thinking tends to be deep and slow, we require copious time alone, we prefer probing conversation to shallow chitchat, and our social lives are geared more towards intimate one-on-one interactions than “more the merrier” free-for-alls.

Ever since I first started making web pages, I wanted a CMS that would allow me to make content updates by simply going to my website and changing the content right on the page. My fantasy was that this system did not require me to know any programming language or tagging system beyond HTML and CSS and it didn’t require me to play with a database. In my fantasy, the system took minutes to implement and my clients could use it as easily as I could.
Landon Dyer tells it like it is:
I’ll be blunt: This is my forum. It’s my ball and I am accountable to no one. Some people have actually phoned me up and complained, or asked for retractions or more credit. I do not give a damn about equal time for everyone. I will do as I like here, and if you don’t like that your options are limited.
For all the trouble NASA has with weather delays by basing shuttle launches out of Florida, there must be a good reason why they don’t move to, say, Southern California… right? Of course there is. In fact there’s at least three good reasons why NASA won’t be relocating its launch site anytime soon.

Earlier today, my wonderful daughter, Samantha, rode in her first competitive show on “Spot”. In her first event she was placed second. Then she was bumped up a class to “intermediate”, rode in her second event and took first place. She recorded zero faults on a horse she’d not ridden before.

You’re giving administrative access to the installer so that it can be installed, you’re also allowing it to modify other parts of your system… A reason to hate Windows? No, but definitely another reason to love Mac OS X and Linux. The trickery used in such installers isn’t new and I think it’s really sad to see no one caring to complain about a procedure like this on Windows.
