Thursday Thirteen - Carousel of Progress
2009-01-08 02:44:00 One of Doug's favorite attractions at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom in the Carousel of Progress. It chronicles the state of technology from the 1900's to "today". I, of course, take the opportunity to practice my low light photography. Here are thirteen photos and videos of the ride.The 1900's without electricity. They did have gas lamps and a kitchen pump.The ice box of the 1900's was just that, a box to hold a big block of ice and some food. My question is where exactly did they get blocks of ice in the summertime? Good thing I live in the 2000's and there are Yahoo! Answers.The collapsible ironing board was invented in 1892, but hadn't come to this family yet. This scene was behind a cloth screen which was lit for a few moments.In the 1920's, houses began to have electricity, but it was not very reliable. This kitchen was strewn with wires everywhere which kept shorting out.Jimmy and Grandpa listened to the radio.I barely captured Uncle Orville in the tub as ...

Thursday Thirteen - Ways My Kids Differ
2008-08-14 03:31:00 Sure, my kids have lots in common, in their features, build, and intellect. But they are also different in remarkable ways. Dova eats fruit, Adam doesn't. Adam absolutely refuses to go near fruit. At first I thought it was my fault, but when Dova came along loving just about every fruit imaginable, I realized it was a kid problem not a parenting one. Dova loves all sorts of food, Adam has an extremely limited palate. Adam's diet can be summed up with chicken nuggets, pizza, ramen noodles and Joe's O's. Joe's O's is Trader Joe's brand of Cheerios, which is the only brand that he will eat, not even real Cheerios will do. He eats them dry with his hands like he has since he was six months old and goes through two boxes a week. Of course, Dova doesn't like them at all. And yes, he's eating some in the picture above. Adam is extremely mechanical, Dova isn't. I don't think this is a gender issue, as I am quite mechan...

Thursday Thirteen - My Favorite Firefox Add-ons
2008-06-05 07:12:00 Another geeky Thursday Thirteen. Here are thirteen Firefox add-ons that I use all the time: 1-ClickWeather - With current conditions and forecasts always shown, and radar at the click of a button, it even beats even the TV for getting weather information. Tip: Use it in the menu bar so it doesn't obstruct automatically sizing windows when it is in the status bar. Adblock Plus - Need I say more? Ads magically disappear off of sites. Wish I had it on the iPhone Safari browser. Commentful - I use this if I want to be informed of updates on an interesting post that I comment on. I also tag my own profusely written comments so that I can find them again (usually grabbing the text for my own blog post... It isn't plagiarizing if you are the author of the comment right?). Del.icio.us Bookmarks - I live and breathe del.icio.us. Plus I am always using more than one computer. Can't live without this one. Download Statusbar - The default Firefox download int...

Thursday Thirteen - Springtime is jumping time
2008-05-22 02:13:00 We took out our moonwalk for the first time in over a year. Not exactly a simple task as this entailed lugging it outside, finding a hole the size of a mouse on the bottom, lugging it back in, going to Home Depot to buy some PVC cement, patching it, waiting a week for it to dry and finally setting it back up the next weekend (I assume there was no mouse inside, but we did run it with the exhaust open just in case). In honor of the occasion (as for all occasions), I took out my camera to capture the bouncing kids. I think these kids take jumping to an Olympic sport, whether it be in the snow, off the couch or in the moonwalk. Here are thirteen shots of our jumping kids. Yee haw!! Cannonball!! --- Thanks for reading this feed. Please stop by to comment!

ArtSunday: ?The Thirteen American Arguments?
2008-05-18 06:21:00 The Thirteen American Arguments: Enduring Debates That Define and Inspire Our Country by Howard Fineman Random House, 320 pp. Americans love to argue. In fact, we would not be Americans if we didn?t. So says journalist Howard Fineman in his new book, The Thirteen American Arguments: Enduring Debates that Define and Inspire Our Country. Arguing, Fineman says, is what we do and who we are. ?We are the arguing country, born in and born to debate,? he writes. ?We are an endless argument.? Fineman is Newsweek?s senior Washington correspondent and columnist, and he?s a news analyst for NBC and MSNBC. By his own description, he has covered every presidential campaign and major candidate since 1983. In The Thirteen American Arguments, Fineman taps into his decades of experience to find perspective on the American experiment. He looks not at petty partisan bickering and political posturing but rather at the larger, fundamental questions Americans have wrestled over since the country?s foundi...

Thursday Thirteen - Things I learned from my dentist
2008-05-01 02:49:00 Disclaimer: These are opinions and stories offered by my dentist. Do your own research before making any decisions.Always brush with a soft or extra soft bristle brush. You clean wood floors with a soft broom and not sandpaper, right?Medium and hard toothbrushes should be banned like cigarettes. He thinks that the toothbrush industry keeps making them because of market demand, regardless of the evidence that proves that they damage teeth. The only thing they are good for are cleaning your car wheels.Just because the masses think something is popular doesn't mean they are right. This is why Google is bad. (He has a lot of other internet conspiracy theories as well).The Philips Sonicare toothbrush was developed by mimicking ultrasonic dental tools that are used by professionals, but they require proper technique that most people don't use. For more on this debate, see my previous post about Sonicare vs. Rotadent.Medium/hard and Philips Sonicare toothbrushes take off a thin l...

Thursday Thirteen #40 - Earth Day Challenge Results
2008-04-25 05:13:00 Here's my belated Earth Day post where I take up Boss Sander's challenge of trying to reduce my trash to nothing for one day. Since I knew this would be impossible, I documented every piece of trash I threw out instead, with commentary on possible options to reduce and reuse it. And somehow, it neatly fits into a Thursday Thirteen post as well.Blister package for Claritin substitute. All medication of this type, no matter how large the quantity, is encapsulated in blister packaging which is completely useless. You cannot reuse it or re-purpose it in any way and it is made from a paper, foil and plastic combination that is totally non-recyclable. What are my options here? Not take the medicine and suffer through spring time allergies? Fight this sort of packaging and endure the wrath of the lobbying group that made this sort of packaging mandatory to safeguard children from accidental overdose (moms like me most likely!)? Or perhaps it is the pharmaceutical industry covering...

2008-04-21 18:41:00 Thirteen Senses - The Invitation(2004)Bueno... pss aquí les traigo otra recomendación: Thirteen Senses es una banda de Cornwall, Iglaterra. Tocan al estilo de Coldplay pero más depre. En México pasaron"Into the Fire" en la radio por un tiempo. Hasta el momento llevan 2 discos y hay noticias que ya estan grabando el 3°. De este primer disco les recomiendo "Thru the Glass", "Gone", "The Salt Wound Routine" y "Last Forever".Thirteen Senses - Contact(2007)Aquí está el 2° disco. De aquí son muy buenas "All the Love In Your Hands", "Animal" y "Follow Me". Disfrútenlo!

2008-04-19 09:39:00 I was stumped with this week's theme. I didn't want to take it literally and post a photo of the number 13 so I made this - a collage of thirteen previously submitted photos to the hunt. Hope it's good enough.

2008-04-19 07:13:00 Here is Dova's Disney Princess collection. In the back row are her six Princess Babies: Tinkerbell, Ariel, Belle (Beauty and the Beast), Aurora (Sleeping Beauty), Snow White and Cinderella. This was before Disney cast out Tinkerbell as a princess as she is only a fairy. You must be either born royalty or marry into it, although Mulan is neither (but she is Chinese, woot!). Since Dova didn't have Jasmine and didn't like any of the full size Jasmine dolls, she picked out the seven Disney Princess figurine set with Jasmine, Ariel, Belle, Aurora, Snow White, Cinderella and Mulan. This was also before Pocohantas was added. And poor Giselle from Enchanted was not added because she was portrayed by a real actress who needs real royalties. Oh, the turmoils of the Disney Princess cult! --- Thanks for reading this feed. Please stop by to comment!
