Church in Benson, Saskatchewan
I take many photographs each week. In this spot I highlight some of my favorites. This is a church in the small Canadian village of Benson, Saskatchewan. My parents were married in this church.
Is this thing on?

Physics for Future Presidents
Late at night, I often listen to the radio as it helps me unwind, wash away the day as I’m finishing up email for the day or attempting to drift off to sleep. My preference is to listen to open line type programs like Dr. Bill Wattenburg on KGO AM, Bruce Williams and even the [...]

Diners Drive-Ins and Dives in Las Vegas

Here in Seattle I’ve eaten a few times at Voula’s Offshore Cafe which has been on the show. You have to eat their Greek Hobo. I’m [...]

With this work we’ve streamed the keynotes live, published breakout sessions for on demand viewing, filmed [...]
My Daughter Was Banned From Club Penguin
