Clickie's Journal: another gelling thing!
http://clickie.livejournal.com/140122.html
21 February 2008 - 11:40 pm - another gelling thing! Adding to the list of plants used for gelling. I just found out that bracken fern rhizomes, in the family Dennstaedtiaceae. Woo! Looking at the list, I note that the Japanese must be really into gelled things. Traditional Japanese desserts use glutinous rice, bracken, konnyaku, agar, and kudzu.five of the nine. 2008-02-22 09:32 am (UTC). Cornstarch gells up nicely, but you've already got Poaceae. 2008-02-22 11:01 am (UTC). 2008-02-22 11:57 am (UTC).

Things that seemed important enough at the time. Tuesday, September 23, 2003. It seems that Blogger's (Google's) servers are holding up to the strains of being coffeefog. D We'll see if this is still true when snack time rolls around. Posted by cflake @ 2:19 PM. Links to this post. Cupertino, California, United States. Me me me: the thoughts found here are my own (or whichever person left the comment), and have nothing to do with my employer. View my complete profile. DCI Quarterfinals on Thursday.

Sunday, January 24, 2010. I'm taking East Coast Swing classes at AAPL. I've only done 1/4 so far, but it's my current hobby. After my move to Noe Valley is complete, I'll re-invest in skating and tennis(if it's dry). I miss yoga, wall climbing, and kayaking. I had a strange desire to try ice sculpting after seeing http:/ englishrussia.com/? Add to todo list: Do taxes. Posted by B @ 11:39 PM. View my complete profile.

Tuesday, August 30, 2005. I'm taking a 5 day vacation from work to take a Cocoa class over in Cupertino. It's kind of fun and yet tense to get one of my projects done ASAP. During lunch, I had fun playing v-ball. I hope all workers there know of the b-ball and v-ball that one can seek during lunch's escape. Posted by B @ 12:55 AM. Wednesday, August 17, 2005.

Tuesday, May 31, 2005. Worked and then came home and watched Intacto. Premise: What if there are some people that survive tragedies or live blessed lives because they stole and kept luck from others? Then what if, for entertainment and prosperity sake they started to compete against each other for being the luckiest? The movie was semi-believable and semi-hard to follow but appealing in its originality. Posted by B @ 12:53 AM. Monday, May 30, 2005. Close to the final. Today's mid-day snack is a fruit slu...

Clickie's Journal: reading and TV correlation?
http://clickie.livejournal.com/138099.html
19 November 2007 - 09:33 pm - reading and TV correlation? From this NEA study. I guess I'm the exception that proves the rule? I must watch somewhere between 2-4 hours of TV a day, but I've already read 50 books this year. And passed my qualifying exam. 2007-11-20 05:58 am (UTC). 1 A difference of 24 minutes of TV a day doesn't really sound that significant. That's one Friends rerun. 2 12 books a year is a frequent reader? 2007-11-20 06:18 am (UTC). 2007-11-20 01:01 pm (UTC). 2007-11-20 11:24 pm (UTC).

Clickie's Journal: swarming bugs
http://clickie.livejournal.com/145065.html
24 January 2009 - 01:14 pm - swarming bugs. When it rains in California, weird bugs start swarming out of the ground. Usually it's just ants, but this storm has brought out some kind of gray swarming thing onto the patio:. Here's what one looks like at 10x magnification:. They ". come in a wide variety of decorator colors, including white, pink, yellow, green, orange, red, blue, and indigo." I'm not sure it makes me feel better to know that my swarms are tastefully colored. 2009-01-24 09:29 pm (UTC).
