Just a quick note to welcome Keith back to the journaling fold. He took a break even longer than mine, having last posted a note in November. But he returns with a new domain...

Look at who the current featured cover models are over at the excellent Windward Skies Photography & Design site. (Permalink here.) Photo taken with a Lomo, which are pretty cool, by Lisa, who is...

There’s an article in today’s Star-Bulletin covering the chorus of criticism hurled against the new UH logo project, highlighting the online petition. And of all the messages posted to it, they had to go...
