A sad day for the photography world.

"Here stands baseball's perfect warrior. Here stands baseball's perfect knight." Happy Birthday to Stan the Mang.

This GUI-trocious OS continues to underwhelm to the present day. Sure do miss MS-DOS. Well played, Redmond!

It's old news, but then again, old news is good news.

For my friends who handle these devices, finally someone has the guts to write the real story.

What a great day for Saint Louis!

We've lost a great St. Louis historian. Rest in peace, Fr. Faherty.

The sad day has arrived.

Less is more.

Still loyal to the Union blue.

This is the twelfth design since Bud starting appearing in cans in 1936. "This is the famous Budweiser beer…"

I'd say it's fair to partly iCloudy!

I remember the day when MTV used to play music videos. Oh, it was grand. This article has plenty of useful tidbits inside. Take a look and remember when…

One year from the opening ceremonies in London, and the Greek goddess of victory returns to the Olympic medals.

Happy Feast Day to all my Jesuit-educated brothers and sisters!

If you received the email from Borders CEO Mike Edwards stating that they are closing their doors after forty years in business, you'll know that the final nail goes into the coffin of the old Library Limited bookstore in Clayton. Borders bought the Library Limited facility, but even before moving, it was never quite the same. It was a great bookstore when books used to be important.

The Holy City is captured by Crusaders this day in 1099. Thus ends the First Crusade and begins the legend of the Pauperes commilitones Christi Templique Solomonici, more commonly known as the Poor Fellow-Soldiers of Christ and of the Temple of Solomon, and even more commonly known as the Knights Templar.

Sixty-seven years after D-Day, General Roosevelt's Medal of Honor citation still paints a powerful story of heroism and selflessness. He was the first general officer to land at Utah Beach and took command of the situation calmly with his famous quote, "We'll start the war from right here!"
When General Barton, the CG of the 4th Division, came ashore, he met Roosevelt not far from the beach. He later wrote that "while I was mentally framing [orders], Ted Roosevelt came up. He had landed with the first wave, had put my troops across the beach, and had a perfect picture (just as Roosevelt had earlier promised if allowed to go ashore with the first wave) of the entire situation. I loved Ted. When I finally agreed to his landing with the first wave, I felt sure he would be killed. When I had bade him goodbye, I never expected to see him alive. You can imagine then the emotion with which I greeted him when he came out to meet me [near La Grande Dune]. He was bursting with information."
Years later, General Omar Bradley was asked to name the single most heroic action he had ever seen in combat, and he replied, "Ted Roosevelt on Utah Beach."

A nice story in the Review about the legendary Monsignor. Growing up, his signature was on all the baseballs we used in CYC league play. Love this photo of classic seventies herd ball typically practiced in the south of St. Louis. We played a much more disciplined brand of the beautiful game in North County.

The greatest database for Mac is now even better. This is excellent news!

Not much longer now!

15 million iPads later, I'm ready for some cake!

On January 24th, Apple Computer will introduce Macintosh. And you'll see why 1984 won't be like "1984."
