Shenandoah National Park Photos
Shenandoah National Park, Virginia, lies in the Blue Ridge Mountains, a few hours from Washington DC. Skyline Drive runs the length of the park as does the Appalachian Trail. I hiked several trails in October, 2004 and took these pictures.

Glacier National Park photos
I have posted photos from one of my most enjoyable days from last year: photos from hikes in Glacier Waterton International Peace Park Me on the top of the Bear’s Hump trail in the park, Waterton, Canada. A great, very steep trail.

Engineering Education: China, India and the USA
I just added a post, USA Under-counting Engineering Graduates, to our Curious Cat Science and Engineering Blog on a new report from Duke concerning data on engineering degrees from China, India and the USA: Framing the Engineering Outsourcing Debate. I think it is a great report. If you have any interest in this topic I strongly recommend it.

Firefox 1.5 and Rollyo
The new Firefox 1.5 web browser is available. It is a great browser I have been using for at least a year. It is free, secure and has great features. You can also try a search “roll” I have setup for the various curiouscat.com sites (via Rollyo) [that no longer works but I have setup similar customized search via Google]. This allows you to search those sites I have included in the “roll” and only those sites. I have also … Continue reading

Deming on Management
Topic: Management Improvement I have added a new section to Curious Cat Management Improvement Connections titled: Deming on Management. W. Edwards Deming’s management ideas have greatly influenced modern management practice. Many quotes and thoughts are attributed to him. Sometimes these represent his ideas accurately, and sometimes they do not. In the Deming on Management section, I attempt to clearly indicate what he actual said and include some of my thoughts on the topic. For example, Dr. Deming is often incorrectly … Continue reading

National Parks
I just returned from several weeks visiting National Parks in the Northwest USA: Olympic, Mount Saint Helens, North Cascades, Glacier and Mount Rainer. I will post photos of the parks to the Curious Cat Travels section as I have time. A CNN.com article, from yesterday, discusses the use of National parks and comments on camping declining at the parks. I have always preferred to hike around during the day and then eat good food, sleep in a warm bed and … Continue reading
