Lunar Landing Sites: Then And Now

You're the Boss: You're Really in the Restaurant Business Now

He is right. I am deep into the business now. And up to my eyeballs in people. That’s people with a capital P. That’s what I keep coming around to, bumping into, knocking up against — people. Like an explorer with short-term memory loss, I keep rediscovering, again and again, that the future of the restaurant rests upon the shoulders and psyches of the people who work here. Not on the fish. Not on sweet potatoes. Not design, not prices, wine, music, menu, advertising, economy or weather. Those have all been mapped out, more or less. People, however, are anything but fixed. Or fixable. People get sick. People fall in love. People get new jobs, new lusts, new addictions. People get hurt feelings. People get big eyes, or big heads, or big ideas. People get religion. People lose their religion. People move on. God bless.

With a Little Help paperbacks now at $14.50!

When I created the Lulu.com store for the With a Little Help paperbacks, I discovered that adding an ISBN to the books automatically raised the minimum price on the book from $11 or so to more than $17 (that's because adding an ISBN makes the book available to retailers like Amazon, and Lulu wants to have some margin to use for a wholesale discount).

Quick! Book your vacation now!

I'm not sure I can really improve upon this wonderful headline from Charles Choi at LiveScience: "Chernobyl Woos Tourists With Promise of 'Negligible' Risk". The weird part: I kind of want to go. The weirder part: You kind of do, too. Admit it.

Juggling Robots: Now With Two Balls

Paul posted a comment on that single ball juggling quadrotor video from yesterday to tip us off to a robot from his lab at the University of Washington that can juggle two balls. It’s not juggling while flying, but arguably that takes even more skill, since a stationary platform (especially one that doesn’t tilt) is less tolerant of variation. And managing to juggle two ping pong balls using a platform that size is damn impressive.
