Basically it translates your phrase from english to Japanese and back again, and again, until it doesn't changes. Seems computer translation has a way to go still.

Does Government-Provided Health Care Lead to Bad Teeth?
This came from the Freakanomics Blog.
"In the United Kingdom, at least, my former colleague Delia Lloyd says the answer to that question is “yes.”
The problem, as usual, is perverse incentives which arise out of the difficulty of developing sensible formulas for reimbursement.
Amidst her description of how and why the incentives for dentists are distorted in the United Kingdom, Delia recounts her own experience with a root canal:
I witnessed this dilemma personally when I was in need of a root canal myself. My dentist told me that I had the choice of pulling the (otherwise healthy) tooth for the flat NHS rate of $76 or going private and paying 650 pounds (roughly $1,070) to do a root canal. He wasn’t willing to run the risk of doing the root canal himself for the NHS fee. As he put it starkly, why risk a lawsuit doing a root canal that takes several hours to do properly when you could just pull the tooth and be done with it? I went private."
Our healthcare need reform, but lets be careful here.
Google – Great Video, but slightly scary…
Google didn't even exist 15 years ago. They have now changed how I work. In fact, I can't imagine living without them. It is amazing seeing the pace of technological change and progress. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjN5avRvApk&w=500&h=417]
Google Music Search – Nailed It!
Wow. When I heard that Google was launching a "music search" I was doubtful a little. But now that I am using I am impressed. It is exactly what a music search should be. Simple. Non intrusive. And you get the full song. Google isn't trying to do it all themselves, just connect the established players, and make it easy to get music. Nice. Try it out at http://www.google.com/landing/music/

So my camera died (like won’t focus anymore) and I only have about 1/4 of this epic trip. But it was awesome nonetheless.

Amazing set of light paintings.
Crazy what you can do with a camera and some imagination!

Fall Photography
I took all of these with my iPhone. No editing. Pictures of Provo in the fall.
Beautiful Fall
Walking to school in the morning I am constantly reminded that I do live in a beautiful area.
