Wedding rehearsals are key to any well run wedding. Practice what you’re going to do before you have officially. When the curtain goes up, however, you only have one shot at history. It’s the same with wedding photography — there is no second chance! Working in the technology industry, we’re…

On the fourth Tuesday of every month now for the past several years, the Stanford Newton User Group convened at Printer’s Inc. Cafe in Palo Alto. The numbers were once strong, though in recent years the group’s numbers have dwindled to only a handful of people each meeting. With the…

Friday night, I drove up to Hearst Gym in Berkeley to see the Berkeley Wushu Team demonstrate their skills to wide-eyed freshman.

We can do it. The past two weekends, I’ve helped Rae film and photograph her documentary on Qiu Jin, a Chinese revolutionary and poet from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The week before, we did some scenes of Rae dressed up as Qiu Jin. This past Labor Day…

We took Rae’s roommate Michael out to San Francisco to celebrate his 30th birthday this weekend. For dinner, we went to the busy Indian Oven restaurant, located in Lower Haight. We met up with some of their mutual friends, including Keith, Terri, and Lee, and Deb. At first, our table…

I still have yet to get MacOS X to boot properly on my new system. If I never boot into 9, then X works like a charm. The minute I restart the machine into 9, however, I can’t boot into X, getting this blue screen of death after the system…
