Well, I finally got the Xpress Redi Set Go a few days ago. I’ll live with it a while and see what I think. So far, I *have* used it several times to cook stuff, even my first day back from CO. In fact, it was part of a group meal for [...]

Yes, I know that technically it’s pronounced like “rogue” vice “moon.” But anyway:
And he plays a nice piano version of it, much more recently:
Still good.
Which Watt?

I decided on how I wanted to figure the wattage of the long cycle clean and jerk (LCCJ). Whereas before, I calculated the snatch based on one stroke, but couldn’t figure the LCCJ, because it’s a two-stroke movement. But since I rack the weight for an undetermined length of time before I jerk [...]
Watt?

The other day, I forget what brought it up–but I ended up looking up some formulae for power, both electrical and units of work. I found them on Wikipedia, and ended up writing a couple of them in a little pocket calendar I had bought. When we were kids, my dad used to [...]

Yessir–that was a heck of a workout. Tonight I put the Courage Corner to good use using Ori Hofmekler’s Controlled Fatigue Training spiced up with his advanced ideas from his “Super Muscle” ebook.
As I mentioned before, incorporating his CFT ideas into my typical way of training is not really that much of a stretch. [...]

Well, I think I feel a little dirty now. You see, I actually take half-way decent photos, but it’s been a while since I’ve had a good camera. I forget at what point I ended up not using one… I gave my Pentax K1000 to my brother a long time ago for some [...]

So, on Saturday, we caught the IMAX film U2 3D. What can I say? It was really cool; I mean, it was U2, after all, and it captured many of their best anthems.
And–it was in IMAX 3D. After I saw Beowulf in 3D, I’ve been thinking every film should be made and [...]

Wow. This is really cool. But it’s making me thirsty watching it:
