Today was my last official day of work at the Center for Legal Aid Education (née Legal Aid University), where I’ve been employed since 2003 or so. (The exact start date is hazy because the organization started out as a project, incorporating independently in Jan 2006). While I officially left Mass Law Reform Institute last [...]
So let’s say your “four-star” tourist-trap hotel decides to close its spa and gym… where to go on the Vegas Strip (the new one) when you don’t want to fork out $10 for the “discount rate” at the hotel’s “sister establishment”? You go out the door and into the desert air for a brisk run.

Here I am in New York, New York… Vegas. I’m in town for the 2007 Conference for Law School Computing. I can’t say I’m a big fan of Vegas — the Fountains at Bellagio are truly sinful in the midst of a desert — but as I cyclist I do appreciate this piece of cycling [...]
I got my first piece of apparently serious recruiting spam today, from a certain “Denise Moore” of “DHI Partners” or perhaps “DMSearch” (a Google search produces no results for such a person).

After a week of hard pounding, my computer is still up and running. I think it’s all healthy again (after a complete Windows reinstall). I lost so much time on that thing that it would have been worth buying a new one rather than go through all the troubleshooting steps (remove all AGP and PCI [...]
This past week or two, my home computer has been on the fritz. With no intention to trivialize real parental responsibilities, in some ways it was almost like having a sick child. I would go to work and constantly think about whether, when I got home, the computer would magically “be better.” I spent hours [...]
Posting on this blog has obviously taken a steep downturn since, oh, about late 2005. I’ve gone and started a new blog (of course) documenting my work on law teaching in virtual worlds. See it here.
The breaking news for this week is that Rachel is leaving her position as Director of Public Policy at Episcopal City Mission to help coordinate the Boston Faith and Justice Network, which she co-founded over a year ago. Following grassroots organizing techniques, BFJN has been holding house meetings to take the pulse of Boston-area evangelicals [...]
