Oh man I'm excited about some weather

      Oh how hot in Houston can it get. Lately it feels like I've been sifting
through a hot dry sandbox that is my city. My grass is dead and all the
trees around here are looking so dry. Now that I have school I get
up in the morning and guess what? It's still hot.
      On a cooler note, it's my birthday today. I'm now 20 and hey I'm not hating it. Just another year till it all goes downhill right?! So I guess I need to get while the gettins good. While I'm writing this, in the back of mind I know that I have to work today. I've come to terms with this considering everyone who has a job usually has to work. Hey at least I get a carrot cake from Chez Nous! /Drool

Hope everyone has a joyous slice of August today!

How will the world look post-singularity?

Living in a post human world
What a tough and interesting question to ask. Although it doesn't even seem slightly difficult for Dr. Michio Kaku to answer this in his surprisingly grand outlook, it's such a bigger challenge for some. Being a theoretical physicist does have its perks it seems. To look at a post human world seems like such a dream and fantasy. Though Dr. Kaku understands and tells us that we will have ever expanding robots and technology with never aging perfect bodies.

"We will become the gods we once feared"

I always wonder how long it will be, if I'm even alive, before enhancing and genetic changes will be fairly common just like the changes we can make to our bodies today. I welcome the future.

Problems we have never seen before will always be more prevalent as time goes on and our societies change. Let's welcome that change.
Open our minds.
And let perfection always seem incomplete and standardized, so we can lets our mind flourish to solve the problems of the future.

Warm up some hot buns, things are gonna get wild.
What a good gorgeous day to be enjoyed. The hot sticky weather of Houston with the combination of sweet smells around my house. Gravel dust and bug noises rustling below me.

Jive to the groove friends.

Wood and ingenuity.

This will all be used

I dont know why I find this such a powerful picture. Human ingenuity I guess? Every single part of this tree will be used and shipped everywhere you can think of. They even use and sell the bark as landscaping materials!


I'm glad that we use all parts of the buffalo.

Gnarls Barkley

Recently Cee Lo Green was interviewed by Rolling Stone and he talks about a few things from the new direction of his collaboration project with Danger Mouse, Gnarls Barkley.

"The more you come to the table with, the less you have to ask for." Those are some words to keep friends.

"You don't get what you deserve, you get what you negotiate." By hearing these words come from an artist, it really hits home how money is surged through every media artist these days and some get more than others. I wonder if Danger Mouse gets a bigger cut of the pie because of better social skills?

Knowing that there are new songs coming from the duo soon is great to hear. I'm sure the heart and soul will be pumped into these just as much as any G.B song.

Keep it friendly folks.

For those whom are interest in Version Control and developing

Eric Sink is giving away a free copy of his book Version Control by Example. You can either download it for free or just simply browse it online. If you're a stickler for the printed word like me then you can go ahead and order your free book.
Right here

“Version control is a critical tool in the developer’s tool chain. So it’s disappointing to consider just how few developers actually understand their version control system beyond the minimal incantations required merely to survive a day of coding at the office. Thanks to Eric Sink’s new book on the topic, this need be the case no longer. Version Control by Example is organized well, light in tone, yet saturated with practical illustrations of not only how to choose among and use today’s most popular free version control tools, but how to do so with efficiency, understanding, and purpose.”

One Day of Peace

One day of Peace
    Let me tell you this here and now. I am totally in love with TED talks. The most inspiring, creative, and heart felt people talk on here and give speeches and birth to all kinds of ideas. "Ideas worth spreading" is their motto, and this motto is certainly correct.
    Jeremy Gilley talks in this TED talk about One Day of Peace. Crazy Idea right? The whole world you say?

    Yes it's a pretty out there idea but Jeremy has went all over the world trying to persuade the people and governments to instate a peace day, which would be September 21. To the Dalai Lama and the corners of Afghanistan, Jeremy has been putting forth his idea of achieving one day of global peace. Yes others have their own agenda of war and power, but one day of peace is not asking for much. To create the first ceasefire non-violence day is amazing and a powerful statement for everyone.
     I found this incredibly inspiring and just had to blog about it. Even this tiny blog in the realm of the internet can help right?


Peace be with you

Enjoy the day

Make today a good one.
An easy one.
A super one.


Take a break and have a look.

Yum Coffee does the soul good

Everyone's gotta have their pickup. A little something to get the energy flowing and the day started.

• 2 ounces freshly brewed espresso or 2 ounces very strong coffee
• 7 1/2 ounces 2% low-fat milk. Or whole if you prefer
• 2 -3 teaspoons sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon cocoa powder.
  
• And for measure an 1/8 teaspoon of cinnamon 
  
  Such an easy taste treat to enjoy while reading or that mornin rain.
  
  
  
  
  1. Mix the sugar and coco together first then combine all ingredients in a glass or bottle.
  2. Shake and stir rapidly until well mixed and frothy.
  3.  I sometimes include an ounce or two of half-and-half with the milk for a thicker, richer beverage. Some ice maybe if you're feeling it.
     
     
     
     

  

  Get this in my body NOW!

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  
  Have a good evening.

 

This guy right here

Such a great and inspiring writer. I always appreciate reading his books afterwards. Just recently I plowed through all of them and would love for Gladwell to put out another. If you haven't put forth any effort in reading, then this could be the time to start.

This guy right here should have a smile on his face always.

Speaking of Chez Nous

I'm about to be on my way to go there right now for some good ole work time. It's blazing hot outside and I have to prepare myself for it since my truck has no air conditioner.
Yes.
I know.

NO AIR CONDITIONER. It's hot!
But I will strive on and put forth my best effort to keep up my self motivation.

So I cook at a french restaurant in Houston,Texas called Chez Nous. Pretty swanky. Great food. Love the job.

We have a wine dinner at the end of month on the last friday. Our theme last month was Bollywood and heres a few pics of what we made.
