Getting what you want

Obama sure knows how to do it.

Appreciate it

Nikki Giovanni when denying that her cancer has made her a better person:

If it takes a near-death experience for you to appreciate your life, you're wasting somebody's time.

Her interview with Bill Moyers is thought provoking at times.

Win to lead

Great quote from a reader over at HuffPo:

Bush the Younger demonstrated loud and clear that you don't make the mascot the 1st string quarterback and expect to win the game.

Worklog 20090104

Early parts of the day were spent on looking at the workflow requirements for Pulse Cost and making sure that we handle them appropriately. I now need to re-design the system and get Mike to re-import the data so that the demo looks closer to the final application they require.

With the Pulse Cost demo not going ahead (I wasn't ready and they weren't in touch as we had agreed) I spent time tracking down and eliminating the issues reported by Dave.

At the moment the main focus is on the client. There were a lot of little niggling issues that got eliminated in the development version, with the goal of upgrading SolarVenti before the morning.

Also the document viewer now works swimmingly after today's efforts.
