I just loved the light on the columns….
It’s an exceptionally hot summer day in Buffalo. After a long, boring day at work, do you: A. Hop in the nearest pool B. Enjoy dinner and a movie in lovely, comforting air conditioning C. Take a stroll along the beach D. Rip four seasons of decorative crap out of the closet under the stairs…
The out-of-the-box SharePoint 2010 workflow approver email notification no longer contains a link to the workflow task associated with the workflow item. While that’s ok if the approver is using Microsoft Office 2010 and the document is an Office document, if either of those are not the case then there is no easy way for…
So the House passed a bill last month to ban online poker playing. Jon Stewart describes this best: When it comes to physical casinos, the argument is that the poor locals will wander in and spend their every last dollar.

Anyone that drives a vehicle has seen the sudden drop in gas prices. And anyone that follows financial markets knows this is because of how fickle the global oil market is.

The world is already preparing for the reduced dependance on oil as a fuel for automobiles. We’ll be able to see the actual end of oil supply…
Hi! I write you for different reasons. The first one to tell you I enjoyed your pics from Belgium. I went there last year and I think it’s an awesome place. The other reason is because we share the same lastname, this is: Punaro. I am mexican, and back there all the people that share this lastname are the descendents of the late Mr. José Asuncion Punaro (this is my grandfather from my mother’s side). The funny thing is that we don’t know the origen of the Punaro name. So, each time I have a chance, I seach to see if by any chance I find a clue. Some time ago I was told it is from northen Italy. Do you have an idea? Thank and hope you don’t bother for using this space that I imagine it’s reserved for your family and close friends.
The name does originate in Italy. Somewhere, I have some images of Ellis Island records of my ancestors coming over to the U.S. I’ll post them when I have a chance. I do not know where the Mexican branch would have started!
