IBM makes play for ‘next-generation Pixar’

Yahoo! News: IBM makes play for 'next-generation Pixar'

I wonder what Pixar's response to this will be, if anything.

More active lately

In the last few weeks, I've played tennis twice, golfed twice, and worked out on my home fitness equipment twice. Really, that doesn't sound like a lot, but it's a lot more than I've had since April when our UVic RecPlus membership expired and we stopped playing Squash once or twice a week.

I'm hoping to crank this up even farther, I want to exercise 4 days a week. Hopefully that can include one (cheap, 9 hole, probably par 3) round of golf, a couple sets of tennis, and one or more workouts. Really, I should be using the home equipment 3 days a week, but if I do that I'm not sure I'll have the energy to play tennis or golf, both of which I enjoy and get me outside in fresh air, which I don't get enough of.

RE: Who is sparkpod?

I haven't received an email from sparkpod yet. Who are these people?
