The Dad Life
Not sure if this is a series, or if this was a one-time thing for The Church On The Move, but I thought this video was incredibly funny. dtsv.dtse_post_258_permalink = 'http://daniel.heramb.net/blog/2010/07/09/the-dad-life/'; dtsv.dtse_post_258_title = 'The Dad Life';

BP spills more than oil
By now everyone has heard of the Deepwater Horizon oil rig that is leaking nearly 1,000,000 gallons of oil a day into the Gulf of Mexico, but that's not BP's only "spill". Here's a video from YouTube of the recent coffee spill in a BP board room. For more information on the actual spill in [...]

Twitter Lists
I just received access to Twitter’s newest feature: “Lists”. This allows you to organize people you are following into different categories and lists of friends.

Bing indexing Twitter and Facebook statuses

Bing Twitter Beta
Bing has just announced a beta Bing search of the public Twitter stream. So far it looks pretty sweet. Two things in particular that I've noticed that make it nicer than the default Twitter search:
1.) When you search for an item, twitter shows you the results. But, when more tweets are posted that should show up in the results, you are only shown a notification "23 more items have been posted". However, with Bing's search, the items are update ajax-style "real-time".
2.) For a few of the major url shortening services, Bing actually displays the domain name of the destination url. I've noticed this for the default shortener bit.ly and tl.gd (Twit Longer). Doesn't appear to do this for tinyurl or the now defunct tr.im.
My big interest in this search engine is in the hopes that they will allow API calls that aren't limited like Twitter's rate-limited API.
If you use Twitter and ever find yourself searching for something, I definitely recommend giving Bing a try. http://qr4.us/bingtwit

It appears that Microsoft will not be satisfied simply with Twitter's status updates, apparently they are leveraging their $240 million investment in Facebook to get the upper hand on showing status updates in Bing. Read more at http://qr4.us/bingfb

Personal "Biggest Gainer"
So everyone at my job is doing a "Biggest Loser" competition. Instead of basing the competition on straight pounds, they are using a simple Body Mass Index (BMI) calculator. I wanted to participate, but if I lose any more weight, I'm afraid I may float away. So instead, I'll be doing a "Biggest Gainer" competition with myself to see how much good weight I can gain over the next 8 weeks. I'll be posting my diet and exercise on here daily along with before and after pictures to keep myself motivated.
My target weight for the end of the 8-week period is 180 lbs.
Day 1 (8/4) weigh-in: 164 lbs
Breakfast: banana, 2 pork chops
Lunch: banana w/ almond butter, 5 pork chops, peas, mac&cheese

QR Code
QR (or QuickResponse) codes are everywhere in Japan, but they're just now reaching the US in large quantities. If you're looking for the next big thing for marketing departments, I have a feeling that this is going to be one of the many tools of the future.
Visit Wikipedia's page on the subject for a quick overview of the technology.
I downloaded the i-Nigma barcode reader for my Sprint Mogul and have been pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to install and use. Other readers you can try downloading are: QuickMark and Kaywa. Once you get a reader installed on your mobile phone, check out Kaywa's QR Code Generator!
Scan this code to add me to your address book.
Take a look at this code to send me a quick text message saying that you've read this page.

George Zinkhan - Tommy Lee Jones comparison
The Georgia Bureau of Investigation released sketches of the former University of Georgia professor, George Zinkhan, who is the prime suspect in the triple murder involving his wife.
http://www.ajc.com/services/content/metro/stories/2009/05/06/100225540_-1.html
I just thought it was funny how much these sketches resemble actor Tommy Lee Jones.

Heramb Family Volleyball
Finally got everyone (Daniel, Stephen, Matt, Becca) to play volleyball! Funny thing is...the average height between us is 6'3.5" and we're called the "Itsy Bitsy Spikers". Inaugural matches (open play for seeding in the Smyrna indoor volleyball league) will be on Tuesday May 5, 2009 around 6:30pm at the Smyrna Community Center. Come on out and watch, or join a team and play!

Developing new Facebook application
Keep an eye out for a new facebook application to be released hopefully within the next few weeks. This will be my first facebook app, but definitely not the last once I learn the API. If the application is a success, I may also look at porting it over to MySpace as well. (Don't want to release details about the app just yet.)

Working the Worm!
With no kids in town, Carrie and I took the opportunity to go out and have some fun. We ended up taking it back to middle school by going to the skating rink with Christian and Emily. Then we all headed to their place to have a "pajama dance party". Needless to say, this was one memorable night.

The "lost" joke
Months ago I went golfing with Christian and his parents. While taking a break in the clubhouse before starting the back nine, Dean starts telling jokes. Of all the jokes, one had me rolling. Later that week, we were trying to remember this one particular joke and simply couldn't. Months passed and occasionally I'd ask if anyone happened to remember the joke, but no one could. Then as I'm getting home from volleyball late one night, I get a call from Christian and he says "I've got it!". I'm posting it here so that we don't forget it again next week.
The Joke
Q: How do you catch a polar bear while ice fishing?
A: Cut a hole in the ice and put 3 peas around the edge of the hole. When the polar bear comes to take a pea, you kick him in the ice hole.
(For those of you who are a little slower, "ice hole" sounds a lot like "@$$ hole")
Thanks Margaret for the correction on the joke
Not the funniest joke in the world, but it had me rolling and we sure couldn't remember it for anything.

We survived the Triathlon!
As I expected, the swim was the hardest part for me. I ran into the water with my wave of competitors and then just panicked. Once I realized that I was getting tired and couldn't just grab the wall to take a break, I swam straight for the lifeguard on the jet ski. After hanging on for a few seconds, I started off again and finally finished the swim leg in 11:23 (300 overall). (My buddy Jon "SuperFish" Doran passed me, and he started 3 minutes after me!) Once I was back on land, I got into the groove and had a decent bike leg that will definitely improve once I get some nicer components installed. (40:40, 286 overall) The run, though still not as fast as I had hoped, was my strong point and I did well on it. (24:19, 93rd overall) My goal for the race was to finish in under 1:20:00, and with a time of 1:16:21, I did that by over 3 minutes.
Click here to see: More Pictures | Official Results
My goal for next year is to go under 1:05:00. I think with a little confidence in my swim, new components on the bike, and an earlier kick in the run, I'll be able to get close to one hour even.

Heramb & Hatcher Hightail Hotlips Hustle 5k
Carrie and Joani competed in the Hotlips Hustle 5k Saturday morning. Both did a great job and were moving so fast at the finish line that they almost ran directly into moving traffic! They finished in about 34:51. After the race, they even got a picture with Wedgie, the big tomato mascot of Sweet Tomatoes.

Triathlon Training
Training for my first triathlon on October 11, 2008. Going to be competing in the "Multisport Destin Sprint Triathlon". The distances are as follows: 400meter swim, 10mile bike, 3mile run. I'm a little worried about the swim, mostly because it's open water, but I should be ready for it by the time October gets here.
I've added a training log (powered by MapMyRun) to the site to keep track of my training and hopefully to inspire my buddies to register for the race as well.

Impulse basketball tourney erupts into Dance-a-Thon!
The inaugural Impulse basketball tournament was the place to be! Bets were placed and trash talk was heard all the way up to the tip-off.
At first the competition was fierce with players trading baskets 
and impossible shots being made left and right 
Even Jeff got out there and gave a freethrow shooting clinic!
