Friday, April 11, 2003 Major League Soccer (MSL) marks new season with Frisco (Dallas) Soccer Stadium Announcement One more soccer specific stadium is announced. This one will be ready by next season sometime? What great news! The more stadiums the better. The teams will then be the primary tenants and enjoy better rates. This will help the teams actually make money, increasing the potential pay for the players. This will then enable us to get better players. This will also be good for the fans who can enjoy soccer the way it should be enjoyed, in a facility designed for the sport, not these oversized poorly designed American football stadiums. Yea for MLS! Comment - 1:25:16 AM     Sun considers AMD chip Wow. So, what sort of world would it be if both Sun and Apple were AMD customers? What sort of pressure would that put on Intel? That's a hardcore potential customer base that Intel has to be a little worried about. Comment - 1:17:39 AM     I saw Cowboy Bebop tonight. What a great flick! For this subgenre of Anime (action flick?), it is certainly one to see. You shouldn't try to compare it with Sprited Away. Cowboy Bebot is the animated version of...I don't know..Die Hard and [insert some vigilante movie here]. This is an action flick with a lot of thoughtfulness. A lot of reviewers say it could have been shorter. But, why? It gives the movie atmosphere. It lets the viewer reflect on the actions of the characters and their moods. The animation is top notch. Again, not the super slick Spirited Away type of animation, but just a detail bonanza of a kicked up Mars cityscape. Way to go! Check Slashdot for a good review with links other reviews.

Ahh..mead and beer..yummm. Comment - 9:27:56 AM      Tuesday, October 22, 2002 Copyright law and roasted pig "In 1930, 10,027 books were published. Today, 174 of those books are still in print. What would it take to put the remaining 9,853 out-of-print books onto the Internet?" Here is another great piece by Lawrence Lessig. One might immediately assume the answer to that question is one of technology. However, you might be surprised by the real answer. It is legal problem, not a technical problem that keeps all of those books tied up in a legal black hole. And, it's a nasty legal issue at that. Thus, we ask why. That seems to be the question in the ongoing Eldred vs. Ashcroft Supreme Court case. Lessig ends the piece as brilliantly as he starts it: "As the Supreme Court once said about a statute that banned all indecent speech so that children would not be exposed, we don't "burn the house to roast the pig." Exactly right--not even to save a mouse." Comment - 10:17:04 PM      Sunday, September 29, 2002 China's First Server 'Dragon Chip' Made its Debut "The semi-conductor market in China's mainland will see an annual growth rate of 35 percent and a requirement of 17 billion chips before 2005. By the year of 2010, China is going to be the second large semi-conductor market of the world...." I am not sure how much of this is propaganda and how much is real fact, but it is very interesting point of view from China on the semiconductor sector and China's stance versus Intel and other "intellectual property right traps". I love that phrase :-) The translation on this article is somewhat loose as well. We've used the word Engrish for poorly translated Japanese content before. I wonder what the Chinese equivalent word for that would be in this case? Comment - 11:33:42 AM      Friday, September 27, 2002 So there are 2 festivals in Austin this weekend: Pecan Street and Austin City Limits. That's a lot of music, beer, and other goodies! Comment - 11:26:45 AM      Sunday, September 22, 2002 Madrigal Dragons continue on a winning track Phew. 2-1 was the score today. After last week's awesome 7-1 victory, we are sitting pretty with 2 wins and no losses. Not a bad start to the season. Somehow I have managed to score 2 goals in 2 games. Not bad for a former defender. Moreover, I have also receieved 2 yellows in 2 games, both very questionable. :-) Our womens' team is also doing great. They have shutout both of their opponents. Sweet!
