Google Chrome Frame makes IE not suck
jimray:
Every web developer on earth hates Internet Explorer for a very good, very valid reason: it sucks. Suck, in fact, doesn’t even begin to encapsulate the amount pain and angst IE causes web developers on a daily basis. The amount of time that I’ve personally spent writing code to route around the indomitable suck that is IE has quite possibly added up to years at this point. Years of my...

Information Access is a Human Right
Iranian twitter revolt. Finland, France say internet access is a right.

Today I went to Cumberland park. It is the outdoor black top in Cleveland Heights. If you have balled here, you have balled with some of the best-and by best I mean the likes of King James himself among other names.
I had coaches warn me about...
Lakota Rez Stats
Can you imagine that in the United States of America:
There is a group of people who have the shortest life expectancy of any group in the Western Hemisphere, outside of Haiti?
Families, children and elders go without food on a regular basis?
Families are often without heat during sub-zero temperatures?

Rez Ball
I love the sport of basketball. If I
were to teach at Pine Ridge I’d love to help coach a team out there.
Playing sports, sportsmanship and teams are things I def care about.
I think this would be a perfect comboneration of wonderfulness, if I were to be
involved with some Rez ball during a stint on Pine Ridge.

So WTF is 'Nonapathy'
Well, this blog is a companion piece to a twitter identity. Yeah you guessed it, twitter.com/nonapathy. In addition to following things I am interested in, I wanted to start blogging.
Covering just about anything really.
Anything that folks could pin their eyes and hopefully brains to for a few seconds and perhaps not be so apathetic about life.
But…apathy is like, cool man?!
Yes, I know...
