The last two weeks have been very, very active and full of milestones. At enistic, we’ve secured our first investors, our first resellers/installers/distributors, and–perhaps most importantly–our first clients! We still have a way to go to raise the money we need really to get this venture off the ground but this early momentum is very,Continue reading “Milestones”

GoWear fit
Having completed one week with the GoWear fit on my arm nearly 24 hours/day, I now have enough data to begin drawing conclusions about its usefulness. I’ll break down my review into nutrition, exercise energy expenditure, non-exercise energy expenditure, and sleep. Nutrition GoWear Fit’s nutrition functionality is hardly unique. It provides a web-based mechanism forContinue reading “GoWear fit”
Sound Body, Sound Mind

Rice Baylor Merger
Blogger’s note: I no longer use the term “Redskins” but am leaving my prior references intact in the spirit of learning. What a glorious weekend for football!

First, it is very comfortable to be and drive in. Second, because it is a city car, it has no cruise control, which makesContinue reading “Austin”
Domestic Hippies

After unpacking my bags, Katie and I had to spend many evenings sorting through our stuff, deciding what toContinue reading “Domestic Hippies”
Smart Start
For the last two years while I was in Switzerland, I took it upon myself to describe the culture, food, landscape, and people to my faithful readers back home in the US. Now that I am back in the US, I feel the impulse to do the same for the European readers I have developed.Continue reading “Smart Start”
Amsterdam Day 3/Europe Day 639
My last full day in Europe was great. Miraculously the sun came out and the day was just beautiful. After a lazy morning we went to my classmate, Joonwon’s, birthday party, where we also were able to catch up with another classmate, Ziad. That was great fun and Sujin served up some excellent (and spicy!)Continue reading “Amsterdam Day 3/Europe Day 639”
Amsterdam Day 2
In an unexpected twist, I woke up this morning feeling really nauseous. I didn’t throw up but I was tired and definitely not hungry. Boo, bad start! Tomas, Albert, and I enjoyed some male bonding by walking over to the local farmer’s market. This took us past Amsterdam’s 1924 Olympic Stadium, which was pretty cool.Continue reading “Amsterdam Day 2”
