For the past few day I have been playing around with use Posterous to post content to my blog, Twitter, Facebook, and Flickr. The idea behind Posterous is to post content via email. This post is specifically to my blog. You can set up Posterous to post to all specific sites by using specialized address. For example blog@posterous.com will post the content to my blog. twitter@posterous.com will post only to my Twitter account. I am attaching three images to this post.

Snowing at Lewis and Working in the Lab...
I'm at Lewis today working in the computer lab. Our PTA has a function going on and in spite of the weather, it is taking place and I needed to open the building for them. I'm using the time to reimage our old lab computers. Last Wednesday we unboxed and set up 23 new iMacs to add to 6 existing iMacs to bring our lab up to 29 computers. My music and technology teacher, Tony Jamesbarry and I spent most of Wednesday (another snow day...) imaging the new computers and today I am imaging the old lab eMacs in preparation for moving them out to classrooms to replace much older iMacs (the colorful ones...) As I mentioned the weather today is pretty bad. The worst we have had all week. The video below is the view outside the door that leads to our garden area. [flickr video=3122759179]

Lapham's Quarterly
A friend pointed me to a publication called Lapham's Quarterly. Laphman's is a quarterly publication that targets a single topic in each issue. The contributors are contemporary and historical writers.
LAPHAM'S QUARTERLY sets the story of the past in the frame of the present. Four times a year the editors seize upon the most urgent question then current in the headlines - foreign war, financial panic, separation of church and state - and find answers to that question from authors whose writings have passed the test of time.
You can learn more about the format of Lapham's Quarterly here. The latest issue is titled Ways of Learning and deals with education. The preamble , Playing with Fire, is available online...
