It's been a hot summer and it's late August. Around here, that means Lake Sammamish is warm enough for swimming. The humans outnumbered the ducks in the water today. The Lake Sammamish South Buoy Data shows the water temperature to be around 75° - warm enough that even I went for a swim today. No, someone didn't tell me to go jump in the lake, either.

Forensic Analysis Validates Williams's Signature
Looks like Ted Williams will stay frozen. An expert verified his signature on the note requesting bio-stasis, and his daughter Claudia testified that she saw him sign it.

It's been too long since I've posted here. Let's talk about having your pages found by Google. I've found that I don't always like it when people find my pages this way, at least for some pages. I have a number of pages that are all links, like this one, of my favorite fingerpicking guitarists. It seems to be mostly found by guitarists that I've never heard of, asking to be added to the list. But it's supposed to be a list of my favorites, not a list of people who asked to be added. I hate to turn them down, but then again I'd rather they didn't ask.

My (passive aggressive?) solution is to include <META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="NOINDEX,FOLLOW"> in the header. This asks search engines to not index the page, and they usually comply whenever they get around to spidering the page again.
