Back to XenonHD

I tried Cyanogenmod for a week on my Galaxy Nexus from Verizon after being on XenonHD for some time. The main reason for the switch was the ability to have different profiles for driving, home, and out and about. I was enjoying it for about a week but something just seemed to be missing. Maybe it was the battery circle mod I missed or the breakneck speed. I also appeared to have some data loss issues that always seem to appear at the wrong time, I really don’t know. But now I’m back with my lovely XenonHD rom. I don’t know but it really just seems more fluid to me.

Weight loss

I’ve been tracking my weight with Google Docs for some time and I thought I’d share a graph. Nothing is better than seeing data visualized in a usable way. Also someone can use the underlying document as well to track their own weight if they’d like.

I’m now a fan of Bill Moyers

I wish there were more sources that are as honest and straightforward as Bill Moyers is. This is the type of journalism we need, this is the type of news that people need to listen to and watch. Its not just because it appears to be honest, which some might call a liberal-bias, but talking with experts and asking hard questions. And taking the time to explain the complex world we live in. Here are two important episodes about the democracy in the United States being bought by special interests both at the federal and state levels.
