Blog from NewsChannel 8 Reporter Cynthia Schweigert |
Is there a concise way to sum up what I want to say? Probably not. I am not going for anything earth-shatteringly introspective here. I'm going to write about common place things in an non-commonplace way. Maybe you will laugh a bit. Maybe you will roll your eyes a bit. If I get any reaction... |

Hey friends! How’s it going? Good I hope! The weather has taking a turn today and I have the windows open and the breeze is blowing in! So delightful!
Today is my last full day off from both of my jobs until September 11th when I’ll be in class all day! Yikes!
The morning started of dark and rainy. Rather than risk getting soaked I decided to take my run indoors and headed to the YMCA. I had a 5 mile tempo run scheduled. The way my tempo runs work are as follows:
Run 1 mile at a...

MADISON – For many campers, the Labor Day weekend marks the last camping opportunity of the summer and Wisconsin state parks and forests are generally bustling with campers. While many reservable campsites at parks and forests are already booked for the weekend, people looking for a last-minute campsite for the Labor Day weekend or beyond [...]

Just thought I’d share a few things that I came across today, although I have mentioned a couple of them in previous posts.
A six-week Teapot Workshop with Ryan Myers will be offered at The Pump House Wednesday evenings beginning on Sept. 22nd. For more information contact The Pump House.
The Green Bay Street Studio here in [...]

Baraboo – The “Smart Growth” map available at the city of Baraboo’s website lays out a plan for the city’s future expansion. One portion of the plan has already been put into action with the annexing of agricultural land to the east of the city on the Highway 33 corridor. The annexation seeks to extend [...]

Our recent visit to 2/3rds of Canada's Maritime Provinces was book-ended by a stay at the Dartmouth Country Inn & Suites. Since our first stay, they've been pinging my Inbox with offers that I will likely not take up for at least a couple of vacations, so my patience ran out and I unsubscribed today.After submitting the "unsubscribe" form, I was unamused to see that Country Inn and Suites and I have different definitions of our relationship. And when I say "different definitions," I'm...

Hey there! How’s your Wednesday treating you?! Mine ha been pretty low-key so far but I’m gearing up for my first night of Youth Ministry tonight!
No, I’m not confused about what day it is as my post title might seem to suggest. As you know today is the first of September, it also marks the beginning of the end of the year. Only 4 more months until 2011! Fall also seems like a good time to start fresh, set new goals, or revisit goals we set at the beginning of the year. I...

I haven’t been making much pottery the past month because most of my time at the studio has been devoted to building my first wood burning kiln. I have built many small temporary wood burning raku kilns but these were crude, small, and not very efficient when it came to firing with wood. Hopefully, if [...]

It’s official — our 2010 meteorological summer is the wettest ever recorded in La Crosse. As of 11:59 Tuesday night, August 31, 20.93″ of rain had been recorded at the La Crosse Airport. This demolishes the previous record summer rain of 20.32″ set back in 2007.
Of course, the 2007 record needs a qualifier. More than a [...]

As I prepare for my annual Labor Day weekend of three fantasy football drafts over two days, it just hit me. I may not be joining my friends for our yearly ritual come next year. The leagues I’m in are not folding, there isn’t a wedding that’s making us reschedule the date, and no I’m [...]

In programming (and probably other engineering disciplines as well), there's something called an "edge case," which more or less equates to a statistically unlikely--but still possible--scenario in which your users may find themselves. This, friends and bretheren, is where the build-a-better-mousetrap mantra runs up against The Brain. It's not just the arms-race between you trying to idiot-proof your application and nature evolving cleverer idiots. It's also about the fact...
