work: using DOcplex in a Jupyter notebook
Now that you have installed IBMยฎ Decision Optimization CPLEXยฎ modeling for Python (DOcplex), installed IBM ILOG CPLEX Optimization Studio Community Edition, and obtained a DOcplexcloud API key, you can solve optimization problems both locally and on the cloud. Our next step is to use DOcplex and solve optimization problems from within a Jupyter notebook. Jupyter
celevrations: week 3 (16-22 jan 2017)
We managed a couple of celebrations this week… Coming up this week: 16: National Nothing Day andInternational Hot & Spicy Food Day and Appreciate a Dragon Day and National Fig Newton Day and Martin Luther King Day Nothing is worth more than this day. You cannot relive yesterday. Tomorrow is still beyond your reach –
monastery.
My photos of the Abbey do not do it justice. I’d love to go back one day for a retreat!
grading the arabia lot.
Back on December 21st, we closed on my Arabia lot. What a mess. The land was disturbed beyond imagination. First step, even if we do nothing else, was to have it graded. What a production.
work: solving a DOcplex model on the cloud
As mentioned in solving a DOcplex model using a local solver, there are restrictions on the Community Edition of IBM ILOG CPLEX Optimization Studio which make it difficult to solve a problem of any real consequence. If you would like to test out some larger optimization problems, you can register for a thirty day free
work: solving a DOcplex model using a local solver
Once you have DOcplex installed, it is possible to model your optimization problem. But now, how do you solve your problem? In this post, I will describe one of two choices for solving models, using a local installation of IBM ILOG CPLEX Optimization Studio. I will describe the other, using the cloud, in a future

gazoo.
Gazoo usually runs and hides when I get out my camera, but she was quite photogenic this day.
work: installing DOcplex
On this snowy (fingers crossed), slow Friday at work, I set myself a simple project. Get DOcplex up and running on our home computer, a Mac. First, what is DOcplex? IBMยฎ Decision Optimization CPLEXยฎ modeling for Python (aka DOcplex) makes it possible to model optimization problems using Python. Once a problem is modeled in Python,
Photo-A-Day 2016
I have posted my final photo-a-day for 2016! This past year, I posted my daily photos to Picasa and to facebook…. In my 2008 daily album on picasa, I posted 202 photos. In my 2009 daily album on picasa, I posted 227 photos. In my 2010 daily album on picasa, I posted 346 photos. In
the more things change, the more they stay the same…
At some point, maybe I’ll write more. But for now, I’ll report that after a break of 3.5 years, we are once again a homeschooling family. And what does a homeschooling family do? We go to the zoo, of course…. And are thankful that old friends are there to welcome us home….
happiness project: friends/family/social networks + misc (jan)
Thrive, Project 45, and the monthly projects in my Happiness Project … so many projects! In reality, they are all facets of the same project, guiding me to finish or give up old projects and move forward on the ones that are most important to me. December’s main theme was Health & Self-Care. Unfortunately, that

Almost clean here … Usually it is quite dirty, unfortunatley.
happiness project: THRIVE (2017)
Here we are closing up the year 2016. And as people do, I’m thinking about what has gone by and how to plan for the new year ahead. 2016 was my year of CREATE. improvement. While I’m not sure that overall I’m that much more creative, I did try. I took a few photography classes.
new project: arabiascape
About two years ago, I had crossed enough items off of my forever long to do list that I could start taking Phelix out to hike at Davidson-Arabia. Our once a week hikes grew into twice or thrice a week hikes, time and weather permitting. I feel so very much alive when I’m there in
