Penguins Win The Cup!!!!!!

Woo-hoo! The Penguins beat the Red Wings and end up spending the summer with Lord Stanley. Fleury, aka Flower, blocked a shot in the last few seconds to secure the win.

Awesome game to end the season on.

Now, how many days until September 26th?

Penguins Down 0-1

It is finally Stanley Cup.  My Kings didn’t make it but at least he Penguins, my second favorite team, made it.  Unfortunately, they lost tonight and only have until tomorrow at 5p PDT to regroup.   Hopefully, they can steal tomorrows game and go back to Pittsburgh tied 1-1.

iPhone Application Programming

Long time, no posts.  So tonight I will probably post twice.

First, lets talk about iPhone programming.  There is a revolution going on right now on your phone.  Blackberries, iPhone, and Nokia phones are all offering stores that have applications that run on the phone and perform some particular task for the phone user.   I’ve worked with the Eclipse/Blackberry environment and I was less than impressed.   The packages available for the phone seemed to be basic packages and all the repeative tasks, such as event controlling, was left to the programmer to complete.

Apple through its iPhone library seems to have a much better interface for writing applications quickly.   Right now, I’m audit Stanford CSEE 193P class to learn how to program the iPhone.  I’m impressed.  The framework has taken care of most of the difficult tasks and leaves the programmer to programing the business logic for the application.   Sweet.

Anyway, exciting stuff with more later.

The man reading it will simply be article on racism in america considering getting a real feeling for your essay.

Playoffs

The have been intersting so far.  Sharks gone.   All series tied at 2-2 in the second round except Boston and Carolina with Carolina ahead 3-1.  The Redwings looked good last night.  Let’s hope the can eliminate the Ducks.

Blues Gone

The Blues were the first team eliminated courtesy of the Canucks.    They were the team I wanted to do well in the west.  Oh, well.  Lets Go Penguins……

Vets and HIPAA

Has anyone every heard of vets having to comply with HIPAA?  My old vet claimed this and wouldn’t release records until I called them.  Hmmm….

One More Game

…and then I will be jonesing for my Kings Hockey fix.   At least I will have a couple of weeks of playoff hockey.

Hmmmm…..who to root for?  Probably the Blues and Penguins in the first round.  I’ll have to see who is around after that.
