I have been training for America’s Finest City Half Marathon and running about 15-17 miles a week with some hiking in between. I sure hope I am ready, the last and only other half marathon I ran was the Carlsbad Half Marathon. As usual first goal is to finish, second is to clock in at a decent time!

It’s that time of year when I raise money for the National MS Society via Walk MS! You can help fund research for a cure to Multiple Sclerosis by donating at my fund raising page http://main.nationalmssociety.org/goto/philchen So if you have some spare moola for a good cause every little bit helps!

I have been doing a lot of work with Amazon Web Services Cloud Computing for VMIX Media Inc. so much recently we have started a relationship with Amazon. So far they have been very helpful and working with Amazon Web Services has been great! You can read about our relationship in the Amazon Solutions Catalog: VMIX Delivers SaaS Online Video and Digital Media Solution with AWS

I had a dream last night that I needed to fix the US Air Forces Stratum 1 server which had a bum Stratum 0 card in order for all their Stratum 2 servers to sync over NTP correctly. Apparently in my dream the world would come to an end, if I couldn’t fix the issue! Somewhere along the lines of things launching that shouldn’t as a result of the time glitch. Why can’t I have normal dreams of having super powers like the ability to fly instead?
