We're So Very Back!
After recuperating from a cold I acquired on the last leg of our long journey home to Maui and playing the game of 'catch-up', I'm ready to blog again! It has taken me awhile to find the time and energy to do so. I think one of the reasons is that the Maui energy is very, very different from the East Coast and Caribbean energy, and thus it takes a while to acclimate again to Maui's energies. It was rejuvenating to take a long blog break and let my mind rest. After becoming an obsessive blogger, my mind was [...]

How is Blackle saving energy?
Blackle saves energy because the screen is predominantly black. "Image displayed is primarily a function of the user's color settings and desktop graphics, as well as the color and size of open application windows; a given monitor requires more power to display a white (or light) screen than a black (or dark) screen." Roberson et al, 2002In January 2007 a blog post titled Black Google Would Save 750 Megawatt-hours a Year proposed the theory that a black version of the Google search engine would save a fair [...]

Bushed
I'm sure a lot of folks are wondering where the blog has been the last week or so. Fact is I'm giving myself a break. Other family and professional commitments are eating into my (hockey) time and I'm finding it difficult finding the energy to wade through 100 emails a day to filter out the articles that land on the blog. Some might have noticed I had cut the player articles and gone back to the focus on business-only articles. This reduced my time it takes to post, but not the filtering. I'm not stopping. [...]
What Were YOU Doing Two Years Ago?
This is a humorous cartoon/self-portrait I drew for my humor blog, Blog-Blond , at the beginning of June '06. At that time I began investing my energy in the blogosphere, and with much determination, taxing of my brain-power, and wearing the same baggy pants for days on end, I blogged day after day. However, I wasn't very computer savvy, and since I had few friends who were blogging at that time, most of my learning came through trial and error and with the aid of computer angels. Mahalo Nui Loa for all [...]
Are young people at risk?
Hey guysHope you all had an awesome week. I have a brilliant time down at the YoMo national youth conference.

Back Seat Blogging
I've got a lot going on at the moment here at home and work so for a little while I feel that blogging is going to take a bit of a back seat. I don't really want it to, but I don't have the energy or motivation to blog or even be online that much. I hope this wont last long... Off to make a nice strong cuppa and read my book - it's pretty good..
