What a great recipe this turned out to be. If you’re like me you’re tired of Vegetarian recipes that crumble and fall apart. Not these Veggie Patties. I find most recipes call for too little flour and other binding proteins. Each Patty is only about 120 calories and is typical of store bought however mine has more flavor and character than those found in your freezer section. Healthier than real burgers. Here we go… Continue reading »

Last night was such an awesome foggy night. As I pulled into my neighborhood I noticed a flood light pointing up toward a tree and rays of light beaming through the fog stopped by a fire hydrant. Photons and misty water gave life to what would have been a mundane object. Continue reading »

On my way into the office today I decided to listen to the radio. I rarely listen to the radio but I forgot to charge my phone last night and found my Android G1 dead. Which means no Pandora Radio. Flipping through the stations I came across an interpreter retelling peoples stories from Haiti. It’s in my nature as a scientist not to concentrate on the emotional aspects of life but rather the logical flow. Naturally I’m inclined to believe that every living creature is a source of energy and sometimes the energy of the earth requires it’s energy back. It hurts to have our energy taken though. Sometimes it’s physically painful, sometimes emotionally painful.

Anyone who knows me can attest I am a coffee snob. Now, most people drink Robusta Coffee. Comes in a can, red or blue, tastes like tire marks on a road and after a few cups you convince yourself it tastes good. Then we smell Star Bucks and think “wow, that smells better than my morning brew”. Everyone who’s had Star Bucks Coffee can’t possibly say it’s horrible, but, to those who swear by it… Continue reading »
Nosy neighbors can be such a pain but I’ve actually got a pretty cute nosy neighbor I don’t mind peeping through my windows. Continue reading »

It finally warmed up yesterday in the Tampa Bay area. So, I went for a walk, then a bike ride, then some tennis, and ended at sun set with a nice 30 minute run. I couldn’t have had a better day. Continue reading »

Last year my Brother and his Girlfriend Rachael suffered a great loss when their baby Douglas Mead died. Doug fought long and hard to win his life but in the end his strength just wasn’t enough. I went to visit my Brother as soon as I could get away from my work. Although it had been many months after Doug’s death I could tell they were still in pain. Continue reading »

What an incredible experience it was to watch this movie. I went to see it in 3D and I will admit that I’ve never seen the new RealD 3D which is way cool not having those blue and red glasses to wear. I never thought them comfortable at all. I have a small head too so they’ve always been too large but the new (sunglasses-like) glasses fit well enough.
From beginning to end this movie never ceases to visually entertain you. Viewing this masterpiece in 3D made it all the better as 3D submerges you in the totally unique environments they’ve create. Everything from all the elements have been rendered to be as realistic as possible with current CGI. I was never quite sure what was real in the movie and what wasn’t.

I’m only recently a fan of Anime and I watched an episode of Avatar the Last Airbender (which isn’t real Anime btw) with my Nephews two years ago. I liked what I saw so I decided to watch the whole series. I’m glad I did.
