  • Hawkeye women capture second-straight Big Ten Tournament title with ease, 105-72 over Ohio State

    Way to go Hawkeyes! An overwhelming win and hopefully an example of what’s next in the NCAA tournament.

  • First SLUH rugby game ever for Adler.

  • The build vs. buy decision is one of the biggest, most difficult decisions a technology company can face. It can bring lively and contentious debate which is a good thing. The more debate there is, the better the final decision will be. Don’t worry about arguing passionately. It just means everyone cares deeply about the success of the final product.

  • If you’re an extremely large Fortune 500 company that prides itself on being a thought leader in your industry, wouldn’t you use every technical option available to distribute your content?

    It dumbfounds me that there are websites out there with great content that do not embrace RSS. What a lost opportunity!

  • It was great to get the chance to see the USA and Japan play in the SheBelieves Cup yesterday. We had seats near the tunnel so we got a close-up view of both teams coming on and off the field. The TV team had their on-field studio right in front of us which added something to do during the breaks.

    Nashville did an excellent job with their stadium. The area around it needs a lot of work as does their parking situation. Right now if feels like going to Comiskey back in the ‘90s. Park > Go to game > Leave as fast as possible. CITYPARK in St. Louis will be a much better experience.

    As an added bonus, not only did we get to see Mal Swanson score another goal, we also got to see her husband and new Cubs shortstop, Dansby Swanson!

  • So many USWNT fans grabbing lunch at the Assembly Food Hall downtown Nashville before the big SheBelieves Cup game!

  • You know what would be really cool? iOS Shortcuts support for CarPlay.

    If I create a shortcut to operate my garage door or lights, why not let me display an icon for that shortcut on my dashboard?

    Seems like a no-brainer, right?

  • Thank the Maker! “The Chronic” is back on Apple Music!

    The Chronic by Dr. Dre

  • It’s unusual for a cover of a song to exceed the original especially when that original song was written and performed by Paul McCartney.

    I randomly heard a version of “Let Me Roll It” while listening to Pandora the other day, but I believe Brendan Benson has pulled off the rare feat of surpassing a classic by Sir Paul himself.

    Let Me Roll It by Brendan Benson

  • So many deadly acts of violence over the last several days. Let’s not kid ourselves; we see this at least every day now.

    Yet no one in my almost 50 years has been able to convince me that anything in our country’s Constitution gives any one person the right to own a gun.

    We are at fault for this. All of us.
