I added 1 day to my trip in order to spend some time with my family that still lives here. I moved to Los Angeles 25 years ago and don&#8217;t get back very often. We were on our way to visit my Aunt and Uncle when it started bucketing down. It has been a very wet Spring this year and we even had some flooding along our route.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img style="float: right; margin: 0 10px;" src="http://welchwrite.com/blog/images/dew-oatmeal.jpg" alt="" width="240" />It&#8217;s the holidays again and this year I am remembering to post about my <a href="http://www.bakespace.com/recipes/detail/Christmas-Morning-Oatmeal/46048/">Christmas Morning Oatmeal</a> early, so more of you can take advantage of it. The fact is, I put a reminder in my calendar last Christmas Eve so I didn&#8217;t forget.</p>
<p>I make up this batch of overnight oatmeal as the last thing I do on Christmas Eve. Most everyone is long asleep as I add the ingredients to the slow cooker, including left over cream, half-n-half, dried fruit and whatever other tasty treats have come into the house over the holidays. This makes it a little different each year, bit always good and always special.</p>
<p>With a kid in the house, having to wait until breakfast is made could make them burst with excitement and anticipation, so this oatmeal allows us to get up, grab a bowl and some coffee and move right on to opening presents. I think this is a perfect compromise &#8212; we get some food and the boy gets to move on with the festivities. As hard as it is for me to believe it, the boy is now 12, but he inherited his morning personality from his mother, so while it might be a little later start, wakeup will still be pretty early.</p>

		<itunes:summary>It&#039;s the holidays again and this year I am remembering to post about my Christmas Morning Oatmeal early, so more of you can take advantage of it. The fact is, I put a reminder in my calendar last Christmas Eve so I didn&#039;t forget.

I make up this batch of overnight oatmeal as the last thing I do on Christmas Eve. Most everyone is long asleep as I add the ingredients to the slow cooker, including left over cream, half-n-half, dried fruit and whatever other tasty treats have come into the house over the holidays. This makes it a little different each year, bit always good and always special.

With a kid in the house, having to wait until breakfast is made could make them burst with excitement and anticipation, so this oatmeal allows us to get up, grab a bowl and some coffee and move right on to opening presents. I think this is a perfect compromise -- we get some food and the boy gets to move on with the festivities. As hard as it is for me to believe it, the boy is now 12, but he inherited his morning personality from his mother, so while it might be a little later start, wakeup will still be pretty early.

This short video was shot by aforementioned &quot;boy&quot;, so it is a little rocky at times, but it gives you all the information your need and a little glimpse of our holiday in progress.

<p>Snowball Blaster has 128 channels of Light-o-rama controlled by a PC.

The BS also sends logic level triggers to the LOR system for Game start and Crash. The snowballs, scoreboard (and the rest of the light show live in the LOR program.) There are separate LOR programs for Attract, Crash and Game play. The BS knows when the snowballs reach the bottom, and compares that to where it knows the Arrow is to detect crashes.</p>
<p>The game is designed around the limitation of having very few positions to light up. The timing of when they light up is more versatile, so that&#8217;s where the game lives. It&#8217;s easy to learn, starts easy and gets harder pretty quick. The audio is broadcast on FM so people watching in cars get a good show too.<br />

The game is designed around the limitation of having very few positions to light up. The timing of when they light up is more versatile, so that&#039;s where the game lives. It&#039;s easy to learn, starts easy and gets harder pretty quick. The audio is broadcast on FM so people watching in cars get a good show too.


You can stop by and play Snowball Blaster - The Game on Philbrook Avenue in Santa Clarita most nights after dark.</itunes:summary>

I listened to this interview while driving around on consulting calls and I almost had to stop by the side of the road so I could make some notes. Even in this short interview, <strong>Chip Heath</strong>, gives some great, though-provoking, information that I was able to put into use immediately. </p>
<p>Heath talks about how important it is to use emotion when attempting to change anything. I think that over time I have fallen back more and more on analytical defenses and arguments instead of starting with the emotion that makes the change so important to me.</p>
<p>Listen to the interview, and read the book, to find out more about &#8220;the elephant and the rider&#8221; and how they work in combination to encourage or discourage change.</p>
<p>I will be picking up the book as soon as I can to explore these concepts further.</p>
<p><strong>Tell me what you think about the interview and the book in the comments. I would love to hear your insight.</strong></p>
<blockquote><p><a href="http://itc.conversationsnetwork.org/shows/detail4527.html">Chip Health &#8211; How To Change</a><br />
Author of Switch</p>

		<itunes:summary>I listened to this interview while driving around on consulting calls and I almost had to stop by the side of the road so I could make some notes. Even in this short interview, Chip Heath, gives some great, though-provoking, information that I was able to put into use immediately. 

Heath talks about how important it is to use emotion when attempting to change anything. I think that over time I have fallen back more and more on analytical defenses and arguments instead of starting with the emotion that makes the change so important to me.

Listen to the interview, and read the book, to find out more about &quot;the elephant and the rider&quot; and how they work in combination to encourage or discourage change.

I will be picking up the book as soon as I can to explore these concepts further.

Tell me what you think about the interview and the book in the comments. I would love to hear your insight.

Chip Health - How To Change
Author of Switch
 
Dr. Moira Gunn talks with Chip Heath, Stanford Professor in Organizational Behaviour, about his new book, Switch, and learn the key to making real change in our lives, no matter what the change is.

That makes &#8220;<a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/0393337286?tag=thewelchwritecom&amp;camp=14573&amp;creative=327641&amp;linkCode=as1&amp;creativeASIN=0393337286&amp;adid=1TB6QB25WZPK24RTVCQJ&amp;">The Compassionate Instinct: The Science of Human Goodness</a>&#8221; a good read for me. It is made up of short essays which use hard science to tease out the existence, need and desire for compassion in all its forms. There are essays on hope, empathy, forgiveness and the whole continuum of compassionate behaviors in all primates, including humans.</p>
<p>The essay-based format allows for quick dives into the content, so you don&#8217;t feel you have to swallow the entire book at one sitting. Time spent thinking about what you have read is important, and almost required, as you delve into some of the deepest aspects of what makes us human.</p>
<p>I first head about this book from an interview with the two of the editors on <a href="http://itc.conversationsnetwork.org/series/technation.html">Tech Nation with Moira Gunn</a>. You can listen to the program using the link below.</p>
<blockquote><p><a href="http://itc.conversationsnetwork.org/shows/detail4383.html">The Science of Human Goodness</a> Dacher Keltner, Jason Marsh Psychology Professor and Editor, Greater Good magazine</p>
<p>Dr. Moira Gunn talks with UC Berkeley Psychology Professor, Dacher Keltner and the editor of Greater Good magazine, Jason Marsh, about how humans are naturally programmed to be good and what separates those who are from those who are not.</p>
