Bonding Time despite being Busy at Work

You might wonder why I haven't been blogging for a 2-3 weeks or so. It's because I've been busy at work with all the deadlines on training materials and all. It's a good thing that I still do microblogging (Twitter, Pownce, Plurk and Jaiku) simultaneously using Ping.FM and spending quality time with my baby daughter.


As of late, she has been walking around her playpen while holding on the side and soon, she can gain her balance and walk without any help. Last Satuday, we bought a pink walker so that she could practice. Only 1 month and 17 days to go till her 1st Birthday.

Choices

Life has been good to me regardless of what choices that I made. I never even though of regretting some of the choices I made (even though I should have thought better) but that Life in its true form. Our life is based on the choices that we make with careful thinking and assessment.


I'm 30 years of existence, I have experience the highs and lows, choosing the path that I always thought was good but generally there are no "good" or "bad" choices in life. I goes down if those choices you make does affect positively or negatively to others.

Over all life has been "positive" for me. I got a family of my own, a career that I always like. And mindset that still hunger for more knowledge.

Talk it up!

We wave our arms, we inflect our tone, we reach out, we open our eyes, we lean in ... we do a lot of things to get our message across ... and then when we send a text message we abbreviate -- "OMG PAW KYFC" ... does our real message, our real intent, really get across to our online friends?

They, (whomever 'They' are) say that a picture speaks a thousand words ... hmmmm, maybe if we could combine text and pics, our messages would be more complete ... and a lot more fun.

Is that what a movie producer does, takes a text message and adds pics? How often have you read a book, then seen a movie and come out of the movie saying "that's exactly what the author meant" ... or "not exactly" ... the written word is powerful in the hands of powerful writers, but even that is left open to our interpretation.

WANTED DVD Review

Last Saturday was another bonding time with my daughter. Why she's taking her usually afternoon siesta I usually popped in a my DVD for my own R and R session. The DVD movie was entitled WANTED starring Angelina Jolie, Morgan Freeman and James McAvoy.

Personal Review: The movie is a cross between Matrix and Assassins with a splash of Tomb Raider (mainly because of Angelina Jolie's action stunts).

For those who like spoilers here's the synopsis

HammeRuler ... Redesign almost ready!

The previous conversation asked for your help with the HammeRuler commercial ... well, there's a tie, so we need you to break it.

The HammeRuler is convenient. Our research shows that when you're hammering you are more likely to next use a ruler than any other tool. But so what? Well, that's the metric we've found ... it's called Short Measure Acceleration or SMA for short ... SMA says that you can complete your job faster, and get back to the music, the sports, the cooking you enjoy!

Celiac Disease ... Did you know?

Celiac disease has been described as a rare disease of the small intestines in 1/135 individuals. It is screened by antibodies to serum transglutamase (ttg) an enzyme that transports an essential amino acid glutamine from the intestine to the body. A diagnosis is made by a small bowel biopsy. Treatment is a diet absent in wheat and cow milk. The glutamine in those substances may bind and react in the intestine.

Recently there has been information that autism might respond to a celiac diet and that vaccinations might contribute to the frequency of celiac disease. New tests and books have appeared about an epidemic of celiac disease (1/10) by a serum antibody to gliadin (wheat) or a stool antibody to ttg or gliadin (3/10).

The strictness of the celiac diet may influence the clinical improvement to diet. The disorders that are reported to improve include IBS, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, sinusitis, arthritis, tremors, balance, and the range of ADD, ADHD and autism.

Citizenship Marketplace

This is a follow up to the "Citizenship For Sale?" conversation. In the first conversation, many folks were concerned about the morality of selling their own citizenship ... that concern is right on target and it was pleasant to see our dNeeroites question that possibility. However, Nobel Laureate Gary Becker's proposal has to do with the U.S. government selling the right to legal immigration. Can such a proposal work in the U.S. ... could it work for other countries? Can the law of supply and demand work to solve immigration problems?

Bleeding Heart

Bleeding Heart by Angra

Now I know that the end comes
You knew since the beginning
Didn't want to believe it's true
You are alone again
My soul will be with you

Why's the clock even running
If my world isn't turning
Hear your voice in the doorway wind
You are alone again
I'm only waiting

You tear into pieces my heart
Before you leave with no repentance
I cried to you, my tears turn into blood
I'm ready to surrender
You say that I take it too hard
And all I ask is comprehension
Bring back to you a piece of my broken heart
I'm ready to surrender

I remember the moments
Life was short for the romance
Like a rose it will fade away
I'm leaving everything

No regrets, war is over
The return of a soldier
Put my hands on my bleeding heart
I'm leaving all behind
No longer waiting

I've waited for so long!
