Russell linked to a picture of me this morning. I don't think it does me any justice since I'm run ragged from Abbie's birth and I'm sitting there with 15 pregnancy-pounds. So, in hopes of improving my image (nudge, nudge), here is a picture of Julie and I from March of this year.
I found Galatea Flashguides at this early morning hour (2:30 a.m.) while watching Abbie and trying to keep her entertained so Julie can get some sleep. Looks like a great site for how to's for installing Apache, Tomcat, JOnAS, and Cocoon.
Brent Ashley now has a blog. I came to know Brent via his Remote Scripting libraries - particularly the Javascript (JSRS) version. At the time (about 6 months ago), I was trying to write a SCORM implementation using Javascript and Struts. I got it working, but then realized that I needed synchronous communication. Hmmm, in looking at this forum post it appears that Peppoz has implemented SCORM using this same architecture! Cool - sometimes reminiscing does add value.
I found these gems on the eclipse.tools newsgroup.
I'm having the same problem on Windows XP that I am on my Mac. On the Mac, I have a folder ASD in my Trash that won't delete. When I try to Empty Trash from the Dock, I get an error stating that the item "ASD" is in use. When I look at the folder and try to remove stuff, nothing is there:
[minime:~] matt% rm -r .Trash/* rm: .Trash/ASD: Directory not empty [minime:~] matt% rm -r .Trash/ASD/* rm: No match.
On XP, I have a similar issue. There is a found.000 folder on my C: drive. In this folder, there is a hidden folder (or at least it has a folder icon) named file0009.chk. When I try to delete it, I get the following error:
Cannot delete file0009.chk: The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable.
Both of these have been bugging me for quite some time - hopefully I can put the comments feature to work for me now!
My cousin Paul and I are the first men on both sides of my family that haven't been members of the Armed Forces. My father had to serve as he was drafted in his early twenties. His parents (Margaret and Joseph Raible) were career officers and served in WWII. My mother's father (Oliver Hill) was in the Amphibious Corps, which predated the Navy Seals. I thank all these men in my family and all other veterans for giving me the freedom I have. Thanks for making this country safe for my family and for my children.
Sweet! There's a great game on the tube tonight. Broncos vs. Raiders (a HUGE rivalry in these parts) in the 500th Monday Night Football game. Go Broncos!
Click on the cute little Broncos Cheerleader (Abbie) for some pictures from this weekend.
Mike seems to have reduced his blogging frequency as of late, but when he does write, it's good stuff.
OpenSymphony has a new Wiki online, powered by SnipSnap. It should be useful for on-the-fly documentation writing and tip sharing. Already the WebWork Cookbook has moved there and got some extra contributions!

For those of you not using IDEA, can your IDE do all this?
IDEA has always looked good to me and I agree that it's a great IDE. But I can't argue with Eclipse's price! And Eclipse seems to be getting a lot more users of late - I'll bet it ends up with more users simply on price. I tried talking with the IDEA folks a while back about discounted pricing for a one-man show. They said it sounded good, but no thanks. At least they responded. And I found myself only starting IDEA when I really needed it. I find myself starting Eclipse every time I edit a .java file. I also found this review of IDEA 3.0 on JDJ's site, and learned that IDEA 3.0 will be available for download tomorrow.
The first week has been awesome! Abbie is the best baby. I have to admit that I don't know many newborns, but from what my friends/family has told me - the first few weeks home with the baby are hell. They said she would be crying all night, we'd have massive sleep deprivation and our lives would be changed for ever. They were right that our lives would be changed forever, but mostly because we're such proud parents and we love our daughter so much. She's been sleeping for 3 hours, waking up, feeding and then falling asleep again. The only time she gets crabby is when Julie goes to bed and it's my turn to take care of her. Then she tries to nurse on me, which doesn't work too well. Thank God for pacifiers - that saves me when I'm trying to convince Abber not to yell at me. I've been getting a full nights sleep every night, but that's because Julie is breastfeeding and gets up every 3 hours to nurse. Soon we'll be filling some extra bottles so I can join in the midnight/3am feedings - that should be fun. You might be seeing some late-night-posts then.
Grammy (Julie's mom) and Aunt Holly (Julie's sister) are in town this weekend, and have given us lots of love by stocking our fridge and changing Abbie's diaper. One of my best friends, Kevin Navarro, also came over last night and cooked us some of the best tostadas I've ever had!
