Snabulus Web Log: Wenatchee Complex Fires
http://snabulus.blogspot.com/2012/09/wenatchee-complex-fires.html
Thursday, September 13, 2012. Posted by Don Snabulus. People tend to think of Portland and Seattle as havens as rain and, for 9 months of the year, they are correct. However, the entire region goes quite dry in July, August, and September. Seattle missed their dry spell record. By 3 days this year and Portland has had just 0.04" since July 20th. By the time it reached central Washington and Chelan County, the moisture was not reaching the ground but the lightning was. In the rain shadow. I would like to ...

Snabulus Web Log: A Few Tweets to Check Out
http://snabulus.blogspot.com/2012/11/a-few-tweets-to-check-out.html
Tuesday, November 27, 2012. A Few Tweets to Check Out. Posted by Don Snabulus. These tweets are of the American Goldfinch (in winter plumage) variety. I saw them today in my back yard and snuck out to take pictures. Enjoy. Awesome pics. Thanks. I like leaving out seed for birds in hopes of watching them, but Momo doggy just barks at them to scare them off! I know what you mean. Now that our cat is 10 years old, he generally leaves them alone, which is good for the birds. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Friday, February 24, 2012. Paste Without Formatting in Word 2007. Today, I was working on a document where I was copying titles from our software bug tracking system over to a table in a word document. Because I was coming from an HTML document, Word was happily keeping the HTML format, and putting the titles in with a large blue-colored font. This is not what I wanted! Since I had to do this for 50 or so entries, I quickly got tired of the solution above, and went to Google and found this nice article:.

Tuesday, October 01, 2013. App Icons Appearing on Droid Home. My wife just showed me her Droid 2 phone, and every open space on her screen was occupied by some icon. At first I thought she just had too many apps, but when she said she had no idea what many of the icons were, I discovered that most of them were ads! All of this is detailed in this nice article from last year:. Http:/ www.computerandyou.net/2012/10/how-to-get-rid-of-unknown-icons-android/. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Dewkid: November 2010

Thursday, November 04, 2010. I found this site ( SweetScam.com. By accident the other day, and found it to be quite interesting. It debunks many of the myths surrounding sugar, and supports a lot of the beliefs I've had about sugar for years. For example, there's no such thing as sugar "hyperactivity" as it concerns kids. Definitely a pet peeve of mine when I hear someone say "Yeah, Johnny is pretty wound up with all the candy he just ate! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

http://dewkid.blogspot.com/2012/03/just-published-my-second-android.html
Saturday, March 10, 2012. Just published my second Android application. This one is a game, and will likely be the type of content I publish from now on. The game is called "Motherhood the Game", and was written for my wife to present at the next Moms Club. Founders day. The theme this year is "Motherhood: there's an app for that! The game itself is 100% free: no cost to download, no advertisements. You can get it on the android market, and hopefully soon on the Amazon android market (free there too!

Dewkid: Grocery Ninja
http://dewkid.blogspot.com/2011/12/grocery-ninja.html
Sunday, December 18, 2011. I just published my first ever Android app! It's called "Grocery Ninja" and was a perfect first app to write to teach me about all the different aspects of Android programming: Activities, ListViews, TouchEvents, and even some SQLite database work. :). Granted, I've been programming in Java for something like 10 years, and programming in some form or another for the last 25 years, but writing for a mobile smart phone has got to be the most fun thing I've gotten to do so far.

Friday, March 04, 2011. Devo to hire Charlie Sheen? This SanDiego.com interview with Gerald Casale. Definitely raises my eyebrows. It just makes me want to say "you guys! Anyway, there's a link to a video on that page that was pretty danged fun to watch. At the end of episode 1, there's a link to episode 2, which I also watched. It was interesting to see the members of Devo in a corporate setting, particularly because they were poking fun at it. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Devo to hire Charlie Sheen?
