Out from the black.
Today marks the effective end of an 18-odd month project I embarked upon with suitandtieguy, which is the first edition of what we call the Time Modules. This first batch includes the following modules:
The Time Buffer, a DIN-Sync distributor. It takes DIN-Sync in, and then distributes it to 8 modules via 3-pin MTA-100 connectors located on the rear of the ( Read more... ) -
The crazy chronicles of the BT850
So, about a month ago I procured a Madell BT850 hot air penis pencil. I didn't fire it up for a couple of weeks, but when I did I had the darnedest surprise. With the heat at about 50%, the nozzle got hotter, and hotter, and hotter until the plastic housing started to melt and the metal nozzle and shroud were glowing orange. So, I flicked the ( Read more... ) -
NAMM Blackbird hunt 2009
I'm heading out to NAMM next week with chromeangel, so we can talk some super sekrit bizstuff as well as participate in that wonderful pastime of blackbird hunting. This year we're going to take it easy and go to the California ScienCenter, however we don't know when exactly. Who's up for coming along, and what times are good for folks? -
What's in a number?
How about the first 10,000?
This professor over at Stetson University has a page called What's special about this number?, which goes over properties of the first 10,000 integers. Quite nifty. :-) -
Another day of birth to rejoice and celebrate.
Happy birthday, victorianrose23. May it be crisp, vibrant and wonderful for you as well as those around you. -
AVR Studio FAIL

From what I see, all AVR studio ( Read more... ) -
Some interest to locals...
I don't know if this is new in town or not, but I just heard about The Community Food Co-Op, which is a project of the Crossroads Urban Center. I think that joyce participates in a co-op back east, and it seems like a great concept and way to get a community together for a common purpose ( Read more... ) -
The gourmand strikes again!
I figured with all the politicking going down this week, I would hide away and get back into some culinary ass-kickery. The big question is whether I will be the ass-kicker or the ass-kickee. I figured I'd do something a little different this time, with the cheesecake conquered and the macaroni mastered. In fact, I've just stuffed a 5 pound brisket ( Read more... ) -
More Prop 8 BS
Seems like the LDS church doesn't like people calling a spade a spade.
To see the video, check out this youtube link.
Oh, and despite all of my bias, I will put my foot down on one thing.
Regardless of what you believe, if you haven't done so already, GO VOTE TOMORROW! DO IT! -
Oh, this is beautiful.
Another reason I really don't like religion, science, and legislation to be intermixed.
Keep your faith off my body, out of my mind, and away from my life.
I have my own faith, my own belief, and if it isn't good for you then you don't have to live it.
