Gmap4 - Share Enhanced Google Maps
A very cool tool - free for non-commercial use - that can produce very nice (and very usable) topo maps that can have data (GPX, KML,...) overlaid on it very easily!
Vistoso Hiking Club Hikes Database
Short descriptions of hikes near Tucson with a few off trail and interesting destinations - no doubt there are more informative sources but sometimes the simplest thing is nice...
Bill Hill - Pictures
I don't stumble on that many well organized great sets of Tucson hiking photos so saving this link!
[WPF] How to bind to data when the DataContext is not inherited
This solved a problem for me with control of DataGrid Column visibility via Data Binding. Did not test/research/profile this extensively, but for my problem this worked like a charm.

Kafka on the Shore and The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle, Haruki Murakami 2012 June 1
Kafka on the Shore and The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle by Haruki Murakami are favorites of mine. To combine them into one blog post seems slightly odd – they are not part of a series and are complex enough that reducing them down to a few sentences seems like a disservice. But what these have in [...]
Hyperion and The Fall of Hyperion, Dan Simmons 2012 May 16
I first read Dan Simmons‘s Hyperion in the early 1990s – the Hyperion Cantos is quite famous and I would occasionally see Hyperion listed in Amazon recommendations and ‘top’ lists (see the ISFDB Top 100 Lists and Your Picks: Top 100 Science-Fiction, Fantasy Books from npr books (note that you may get some amusement out [...]
Wool Omnibus (Wool 1-5), Hugh Howey 2012 May 1
I don’t usually pay much attention to Amazon’s recommendations – but after finishing 1Q84 I wanted something new and, for whatever reason, the Wool Omnibus by Hugh Howey jumped out at me on Amazon’s list. Wool takes place in a bleak future where the characters live in self sufficient underground silos with only a vague [...]
1Q84, Haruki Murakami 2012 April 15
I am a fan of Haruki Murakami, so I was excited when the English version of 1Q84 became available. I picked up and put down this book several times while reading it and I have to admit that I just really don’t know what to say about it – Long/Interesting/What?/I am glad I read it/Why?/1984/hmmm… [...]
Ride the Divide 2012 April 2
Ride the Divide has great scenery, interesting people, injuries, struggles and riding along the Great Divide Mountain Bike Route that goes from Banff, Canada to the Mexican border! While I am familiar with some of the long distance hiking trails in the US I had no idea this route existed and it was fascinating to [...]
Forks over Knives 2012 March 20
Forks over Knives (official website), directed by Lee Fulkerson, is a rather long documentary with the singular message that plant based diets are better than meat based diets (it may be slightly more subtle than that, but I think that is a pretty fair summary). I watched the film days after seeing Tabloid and could [...]
Tabloid, The Thin Blue Line 2012 March 15
Tabloid – by Errol Morris – is the story of Joyce McKinney. McKinney was involved in a widely publicized case/scandal/incident in England in the late 1970s sometimes given the colorful name ‘The Case of the Manacled Mormon’. I had no knowledge of the events prior to the film – which might have added to the [...]
Jig 2012 March 1
Jig follows a number of dancers leading up to their participation in the 40th Irish Dancing World Championships (2010). This film is a friendly, short and entertaining glimpse into a world that I did not know even existed – great fun. Simple, good! Rating: 4 of 5 First Watch Date: December 2011 CM
180° South: Conquerors of the Useless 2012 February 16
180° South: Conquerors of the Useless (official site) direct by Chris Malloy follows the journey of Jeff Johnson from Ventura, California to the Corcovado Volcano in Patagonia. The film has some amazing footage of Patagonia and interesting people (including Yvon Chouinard and Douglas Tompkins) – but, somehow, it didn’t hold my interest… Too […]
Beats, Rhymes & Life: The Travels of a Tribe Called Quest 2012 January 30
I have no idea when I first heard a Tribe Called Quest (official site) – but it was the early 2000s before I really ‘found’ them and started listening. I would not call myself a devotee – casual fan is probably the best description – but even as a casual fan I was excited when [...]
