Macbook Air News Break

During his Macworld Expo keynote address on Tuesday morning, Apple CEO Steve Jobs introduced the MacBook Air Tuesday, a computer that the company billed as the world's thinnest notebook -- small enough to fit inside an interoffice mailing envelope. It's priced starting at $1,799.

Sporting a silvery finish, the MacBook Air features a 13.3-inch LED-backlit widescreen display -- it saves power and provides "instant on" response from the moment you turn it on, according to Jobs. The device has a slightly wedge-shaped profile that runs from 1.2 inches down to 0.8 inches high. It weighs about 3 pounds, and sports a thickness of 0.16-0.76 inches.

Happy Birthday, Dr. King

I just want to do God's will. And he's allowed me to go to the mountain. And I've looked over, and I've seen the promised land! I may not get there with you, but I want you to know tonight that we as a people will get to the promised land.

-Dr. Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr.

Happy Birthday.

Get Out Your House: 1 Key to Successful Steady Writing

If you are having trouble meeting your daily writing goal, I suggest you leave your home. I am a mom, who because of my disability need to stay home. However, when I have writer deadlines being home makes it very hard. SO I thought what about other working writers? I'm sure you are bombarding by relatives wanting you to chauffeur them everywhere, your daughter's school needing you to volunteer, or your writer friends wanting you to read every though that comes out of their head, then there's laundry, lunch, dinner, shopping, cleaning and homework. Here are a few laces I have found that are becoming my writing home away from home. This week I will be searching for these places, since I am new to this town.

1. Your public library
   
2. a neighborhood coffee shop
3. your church narthex-always a bench there
4. the mall foodcourt
5. Barnes and Noble
6. Ingles Grocers Book section. They have a little reading nook in there.
   

any other place?
