Converted this site to Bootstrap 3, just as Bootstrap 4 is in alpha.

Added pictues from our trip to Toronto.

After being frustrated with both OptParse and ArgParse, I have settled on DocOpt. DocOpt is a great Python library for command line options. I will attempt to use it and only it. I just updated rename to use it.

Added pictues from our wonderful trip to the United Kingdom. We spent 5 greats days in London, and 4 fun days in Edinburgh.

Sublime Text 3 is the best code editor I have ever used. When I cannot use it at work, I really notice it. Multiple cursor feature alone is worth the cost. Great software! Many excellent plugins! Start with this excellent free tutorial http://code.tutsplus.com/courses/perfect-workflow-in-sublime-text-2.

Converted all of the vacation pictures to use foundation. All vacation pictures pages are now responsive.

Converted this site's search functionality to use: Foundation, Flask, and jQuery. So far in my limited experience, I prefer Foundation to Bootstrap. Flask is a nice lightweight Python web microframework. http://willhaley.com/blog/flask-on-bluehost is an excellent blog post about running Flask on bluehost.

After jEdit's latest version had the fuzzy font issue on MacOSX again (It still looks great on Linux). I have switched to Sublime Text 3, which is a great great code editor.

Added pictues from Vegas 2014. We went to the Neon Museum, highly recommended!

Added pictues from Fallingwater

Added pictures from our short but great trip to Boston

All of my open source projects codebases are now stored on GitHub.

Released a Java library for interacting with isbndb.com's REST based API.

Created my first Python module. Uploaded to PyPi. Source code available at GitHub.

Added Hawaiian 2013 vacation pictures.

Rewrote this site using Bootstrap. Bootstrap is both easy to learn and implement.

Last week I attended Python Fundamentals, at Marakana, it was an outstanding introduction to the Python programming language. I had done some Python studying (1 book and 1 online course) on my own, but Python Fundamentals brought it all together nicely. Simeon Franklin is an excellent instructor. I hope to return for the advanced Python course someday.

Added my Cruise Recommendations page.

Two weeks ago, I attended Apache and Tomcat Training at Marakana's San Francisco location. The training was interesting and informative. I would recommend to any developer who uses httpd and Tomcat.
