Let's say you're hiking in the hot and a bunch of gnats decide they're going to be your bffs.
Go find a nice spiderweb. Put your face about a foot from the web and wait five minutes or so. The gnats will all fly into the web. Goodbye.
I learned this while trying to photograph a spider while accompanied by a group of merry men. Eventually the spider quit hiding and giving me the evil eye and the finger preventing me from taking a pic to go harvest all my obnoxious gnats that flew into its web.
I was happy. The spider was too.
Pressing ground turkey into one gallon zip loc freezer bags and dividing in quarters with a chopstick.
I keep all of my keys in a small safe-like device that I carry with me. If I happen to lose my keys, there's no problem because they can't be accessed without a fairly large amount of effort, and perhaps explosives.
I affix the key to this lockbox to my left earring, so I always know it's safe. It has the added bonus of being hyperfashionable, too! Who needs zippered jackets when you've got dangling keys?
Mom makes these out of rope, twine, and coat hangers. Beats paying for bungee cord and carabiners like a SUCKER!
Currently my favorite slide for a talk at Duke on Thursday.
The animation for it is pretty fun.

Hope You Like It.

The cesspool in Paria Canyon was pretty much as advertised. At times, it can be waist deep. It was only slightly above the knee while we were there.
The canyon also sometimes has genuine quicksand. The muck was awfully thick and pulled at our shoes a few times, but nothing I could classify as quicksand... Still fun, though.

Detail of my commuting from the very first day I began working in Montgomery County to present (as of the date of upload). This shows transit in cooler colors and car travel in warmer colors.
By and large transit has been a longer trip (not least because I still need a car for part of it), but quite reliable and pleasant. Whereas driving the whole way has the capability of being faster (particularly in the morning) but can be maddening in the evenings.
A few specific events...
I was walking to/from Dupont North up until about Oct/Nov 2012, when the south escalators reopened & cut about 5 min off my walk. I later began using Metro Center in the AM, cutting an additional 5 min walk but at the cost of an extra couple minutes on Metro... I mostly switched just to vary my walk up a bit; I liked seeing all the construction each day.
There were two days in 2012 when I tried 100% to my job on the outskirts of Gaithersburg... as you can see from their status as clear outliers: that did not work well. The 56 bus was horrible... it meanders so much, and on that second day I missed it by a few seconds -- had to wait 30 minutes for the next one.
Over Summer 2013 I began testing out I-395 as a driving option... it's worked pretty well in both AM and PM, cutting my DC car time significantly but increasing my VA car time slightly. One perk is I don't have to deal with the K Street slalom, and I also get lovely skyline views along the Potomac.
In the last few days -- on the far-right of the chart -- I switched to a different office which I can travel to entirely by transit... this is why the last few data points which are 100% transit.
This table was wobbly, but I came up with an innovative solution using cutting edge Microsoft technology.
Who wants to lug bags of groceries upstairs? Not my mom! So here's her solution. She puts the bags on these hangers, goes up to the terrace, and pulls 'em on up.
one fatal flaw of logitech programmable keyboards is their lack of support for firefox. their default and only browser supported is ie. this can be annoying for someone who owns a keyboard that support various media keys however, this can easily be fixed.
- on the right hand side of your taskbar find the logitech icon and right click on it
- select the "itouch configuration" option. in this window you can change the mapping of the hot keys.
- select a hot key and select modify at the bottom right. a normal configuration for a given hot key would be the url to the desired site but with this problem at hand we need to take another approach.
- click on the drop down menu and change the selection to program.
- enter the path to firefox followed by the url to the desired site. note the space between the program path and the url:
c:\program files\mozilla firefox\firefox.exe www.flickr.com/
- now when you press the button the keyboard will send the command to firefox.
