The dashing young WordPress site here before you is the latest incarnation of the thathero.com journal, and then some. So what’s going on with this bloggy-looking thing here? What is where? Where is… what?

Most of the content will hang out in the “blog” itself. I’ve dragged over a lot of old, cheesy content, just because of how convenient the Search and Archive features are. The Music and Movies links, as you’ll notice should you happen to follow them, will take you to pages living in a different template altogether. This is what all of the site used to look like, and probably where Music and Movies will remain whether I ever add new reviews there or not.

The posterior of the site will take care of the rest of the content - some of which I will drop into the WordPress database eventually, some of which isn’t worth any more trouble than throwing in a link to the old directory at thathero.com. Questions? Comments? Hit me!

Fold some proteins!

If you’re not already using Folding@Home, Stanford University’s distributed computing program, visit their site to get started. Basically you install a program on your computer that gets small work units from Stanford servers, then does simple repetitive tasks that help researchers determine how proteins fold (or fail to fold). It’s an easy installation, has no noticeable impact on your computer’s performance, and contributes to medical research. Configure your Folding@Home installation for team number 48190 to join our team!

Give to YoungLife!

Whatever your feelings on tithing or charity in general, it’s hard to deny that generosity is a positive trait. YoungLife is a great place to target that generosity.
