Adopting an Embryo

My church is partnering with a new ministry: www.adoptanembryo.net

It’s an interesting idea, one of the local news stations did a piece on it last night: http://www.q13fox.com/pages/video/?autoStart=true&topVideoCatNo=default&clipId=3031625

Men’s Nat’l Team Game vs. Trinidad & Tobago

I’m excited for the game tonight, especially since the US has clinched a World Cup Qualifying finals spot, and is just cruising. It’ll be good to see some of the youth/MLS guys get some playing time. It looks like a good oportunity to watch the youth of US soccer out there on the pitch. And heck, it’s on ESPN, and everyone has that channel, right?

New Macbook Pro Thoughts

Filed under apple, mac

Apple does a lot to get things right the first time, which is a totally great business practice. With this new Macbook Pro, I think they did just that, mostly.

The tech specs are pretty amazing, 4 finger multi-touch, great graphic processor, SSD, sturdy design, 6mb L2. All this is awesome, but it’s missing one essential thing – it’s not pretty. This is one of the ugliest pieces of equipment I’ve ever seen. I don’t know if it’s the black keys on white, or the black frame on the screen, but this sucker is gross. Maybe I’ll warm up to it, but not anytime soon. Apple, you disappoint me, where have all your designers gone?
