I simultaneously love and hate that I am so introspective. I delight in “discovering” things about myself (which makes me sound really egocentric), but I hate that I obsess over my faults and weaknesses, and constantly try to come up...

I was reading the Rule of St. Benedict today, and a certain line about humility struck a chord in my soul (get to that in a second). While I do pray more than seven times a day, I don’t keep...
I get very tired of people’s notions that worship is about self-gratification. Worship is about worshiping God. It’s not really about what songs uplift us, what styles suit our tastes, what seems more progressive, traditional, contemporary, fill-in-the-blank. Worship is about...
So, since my life is pretty boring, I’ve decided to blog a lot lately about some of my thoughts on topics. I used to have a lot more to say about day-to-day life, but things are pretty much the same...
I had the opportunity to chat with an old friend today. She was stressed out because she felt one of her dearest friends was apostatizing. Her friend, who is also an acquaintance of mine, got married at an early age,...
This week has been really nice. The weather has been absolutely positively beautiful for the past three days, which is sure to put me in a good mood. I just love to soak up sunshine, smell freshly cut grass, and...

I decided to devote the majority of today to cleaning. Wow. I must say, I feel a lot better now that it’s done. There are probably a few things that could still use some reorganizing, but overall, I got a...
Medium is looking for experienced Ruby on Rails programmers to join our development team. You should *really* like programming for the web, writing maintainable, sustainable code and have a strong desire to learn how to improve your skills. The work...
I’m learning this Holy Week to take up my cross and follow Christ. And I’m battling the feeling that being a Christian sucks sometimes.
I know that in its very essence, that phrase is extremely selfish. I’m focusing on the pain...
We’ve gotten to the point where we have some things we’d like to share, but not to the whole world. So we’re saying goodbye to stalkers, and reinstating privacy settings for our blog.
For those of you who previously had an...
My mind tends to start spinning when the house is quiet and the minutes are creeping closer to midnight. Not sure how I got on this awful schedule, but there you have it!
Life has been interesting lately. So much has...
We're excited to present DevChatt, a free, technology-focused conference and expo for software developers, engineers, technologists and technology enthusiasts.

So, if anyone has known anything about our lives in the past few months, you’ll know that we had a couple of bad experiences with long-time friendships, and those experiences have brought us a lot of hurt.
The two...
Recently I was able to play music with a friend, and it was wonderful. I’ve neglected my poor violin for a while now, stacking up excuses as to why I don’t pick it up often enough — for one, the...
I thought that if I just threw a post out, it might get my blogging flowing again. I’ve been trying to figure out if I really have anything to say. I thought maybe I could write something about Lent, but...
We’ve been away for a while due to blog problems but we’re hoping to wake up things a little around here. Life has been crazy for the past several months. There’s been good crazy and bad crazy. I don’t even...

Dearest Friends,
Medium here. You might remember us as Coptix. But that was a long time ago and in a neighborhood far, far away (actually, it was St. Elmo). Now it’s a year later and time for another brobdingnagian (look it...
Producers at Medium produce. Can you?We're looking for a fanatically organized, confident and capable individual to be responsible for the day-to-day management of interactive projects, working either as a project lead on small-to-medium sized projects or in a support role...
Dear Friends, I have just returned from the 66th Annual meeting of the AAPS. These past few days at the AAPS meeting have been very interesting. We heard from Kelly Jones (the PharmD who worked with my mentor, Dr....
The NEJM contains two studies and an editorial on vertebroplasty. Both were blinded, randomized, controlled trials. One was done in Australia, the other at 11 centers around the world, by a Mayo Clinic lead. Cement is injected...
I can’t say I’m sorry to see summer go. Don’t get me wrong — I enjoyed every popsicle, ice cream cone, walk to the park, and trek out to the lake (and let’s face it, I’ll continue enjoying at least...
When many Python projects are maintained in the same development
environment, managing package dependencies can be difficult. Each
project may have different needs, but packages and modules are
installed into the same space by default. To help address this
problem, Ian Bicking created...
Moving to Spokane has been a very wonderful, but difficult, transition for our family. I love the weather here (most of the time!), and the fact that we are near my family. I feel like it is important for Kyrie...
We're proud to announce that Medium has partnered with EPB, Alcatel-Lucent and Tantalus Systems Corp. to bring a fiber-optic based smart grid network to EPB’s 170,000 customers in East Tennessee and North Georgia. Medium is serving as a financial...
I love that it’s the things that cost the least money that usually are the most fun. Rick and I went to the pet store today just to let the kids look at the puppies and kitties, birds and fish,...
Earlier today, while we were headed to the store, Rick and I were talking about how fun it would be to go to Hawaii (yeah, we often talk of exotic vacation spots, we can’t help it) and Kyrie said, “Hawaii??...
Today's Epistle reading mentions covetousness, and I was reminded of this quote from Gilead which made me look at covetousness from a different angle:I don't know exactly what covetise is, but in my experience it is not so much desiring...
Rain, glorious rain! I’ve hoped for some for quite a while, mostly just so our water bill would not be so high from watering our enormous and rather yellowish lawn, but also just for a change of scenery, and the...
"She was less inclined to pray that she had been once. In her childhood, when her father, a tall man then and graceful, had stepped into the pulpit and bowed his head, silence came over the people. He...
Antonio loves to repeat everything he hears. He also loves to bring me a story, have a story for himself, and then pretend to read his aloud while I read the one he handed me. But sometimes he’ll actually sit...
