Poodle nest

Cuteness!

Adrian gave Nisha a treat and then tried to take it back. She turned her head away and put her paw on his hand to
stop him from taking it.

Office chicks

I love my office. Nisha loves chasing chickens or sitting with jill. It's very wet here. Uncle dudley's basement is flooded (no laundry for me!). A's basement flooded a couple nights ago, about 4".

Quarries

I'm hanging out at a quarry installing some software... The weighstation has as many as 400 trucks a day, about 22 tons each truck. That's a lot of rocks.

Fixing water contamination

(e:Paul) asked about how residential well water is being remediated when gas drilling contaminates it. This story discusses a whole-house reverse-osmosis installation. My understanding is that gas drillers aren't installing reverse-osmosis systems very often. They're really not a permanent solution - they take maintenance and money to run, they're noisy, they're slow.

â€œBoth of the homes will be getting reverse osmosis systems which will remove total dissolved solids, chlorides, manganese, iron, dissolved methane and ethane gas from their water supplies,â€ Tarbell said. â€œThere will also be pumps installed, water softeners and UV light to disinfect the water as part of the project.â€

Hooping!

Topic Idea: "The one skill that I want to learn next..." suggested by tinypliny

I want to learn to hula hoop. (e:Dovelette)'s idea... she lent me a hoop that's currently decorating my bike. I've started to get it, but I need to practice a lot more. It seems I should be able to be pretty proficient if I practice during the bar review.

Want

The environmental law society is raffling this solar charger. I just spent $10 on tickets. (i also ordered two phone batteries on amazon last week... Hopefully they'll show up soon. thanks (e:paul)) hopefully I won't ever be traveling or having a long dayagain and run out of phone.

heidi writes at 01:23:17 04/23/11 - Comment #61971: I had some gripes with the UI design - could definitely be smoother. It's in whatever the current Microsoft asp.net thing is, so it's gonna have some clunky to it. And little things like not being able to designate a "shipping address" and a "billing address" - something so obvious shouldn't be a problem. They have a "primary address" and a "shipping address" but it seems like when I change one, it changes the other. I think their billing system isn't actually integrated which is just sad.

heidi writes at 01:17:47 04/23/11 - Comment #61970: Oh, the reason I picked ThemisBar.com is that it's entirely online, designed from the ground up to be online. I took the Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam (MPRE) review course from them and I got a 105 - I only needed an 85 for NYS and 75 for PA, so I was pleased. I didn't feel like I had put in a huge amount of effort to get that score, the online lectures were short and effective, with nice fill-in-the-blank outlines to make you pay attention and retain stuff by writing. The review question bank was good and I was able to see the patterns in the questions. Their bar passage rates are quite good.

heidi writes at 01:13:35 04/23/11 - Comment #61969: I didn't win the charger :-( I won a discount on a bar review course that I already bought www.themisbar.com ... maybe I'll get a refund for the difference. Original price $1395. I got a $145 discount for registering at the Cornell conference, and now an additional $250 discount, so $1,000. Other people are paying $3,500 for a review course that you have to go to a lecture hall every day to watch a video.

paul writes at 12:01:09 04/20/11 - Comment #61914: omfg, I want one of those. I wonder how good they really are.

tinypliny writes at 05:24:04 04/19/11 - Comment #61908: LOL, I first read it as Solarbilly. (Billy means cat at home. :-)

tinypliny writes at 05:22:15 04/19/11 - Comment #61907: OMG. Now I want you to win. GO HEIDI HEIDI HEIDI!!!!!!!!!!!

heidi writes at 05:21:07 04/19/11 - Comment #61906: Hopefully I will win and be able to report back. :-)

tinypliny writes at 05:12:24 04/19/11 - Comment #61903: That's a really cool concept. How long does a cellphone need to charge with that? Do you think it will work with any light (not just sunlight?) You have to think about that on gloomy days like today.
