A True Inspiration

Somebody recently that I have learned about and have found to be an inspiration is Commander Chris Hadfield.  He was the Commander for expedition 35 at the International Space Station as of just a day or two ago.  Him and the rest of his three man crew returned to earth yesterday morning leaving behind the International Space Station that they called home for 5 months.  During Chris’ expedition he was able to record and demonstrate many things that one could be interested about how it works in space.  This includes anything from how things move in space to how astronauts sleep.  Not only are the videos educational but they are very entertaining. 

Another reason why I have become so impressed with Chris is because of the video on Youtube entitled “Chris Hadfield on how to become theperson you want to be”.  I love this video because it makes sense.  Live one day at a time and enjoy the ride.  If you want to be inspired then sit back and watch.

Barnes and Noble Nook Tablet

I was given a Nook Tablet yesterday for Fathers Day and I just have to say I am a fan.  I have only done a little research as to the different tablets that are out there and I am glad I got the Nook.  It has the 7" screen which makes it more portable than the bigger tablets and it has a memory extension port that you can add up to 32 gigs of memory using a miniSD card.  I do wish it had a camera but I always have my phone that I can use if I need to.  I do like some of the security features I have been able to find so far and for the little amount of time that I have been able to spend with it so far I look forward to using it more.

The only other tablet I have used and only for a brief amount of time was the ipad.  It was cool but I did not like the size but that is just my personal opinion.  Until I get my hands on more tablets I am going to continue to recommend the Nook Tablet because as far as I am concerned it has everything I need.
