Twins are Born

Last weekend, I became a proud double-uncle when my brother’s family grew from 2 to 4 overnight! Ashley Nicole and Lindsey Grace were born at 12:30 in St. Louis on January 12, 2006.

I posted some photos on flickr, Dad has photos on his website, and the hospital has pictures of Lindsey, Ashley, and both.

Congratulations, Arik and Laura!

Update: Arik has a great picture gallery up on his website now.

Twins Comfort Each Other

Video To TiVo From My Mac

Now there’s a way to put video back to my TiVo from my Mac. The interface for turning it on is hidden until you either command-click the TiVo preference pane or type defaults write com.tivo.desktop FileVideo -dict-add VideoUIEnabled -bool true into Terminal (this feature is also known as “TiVoToComeback”).

TiVoToComeback UI

The original discovery came from this TiVo Community Forum post.

Also, you might find TiVoizer useful in converting videos to the mpeg2 format that TiVo likes.
