A World With No Windows

2007.01.31@ 23:31:36 -0600 under  Life

I know I have been writing, at least in the last two entries, what might be considered by many as techno crap.

2007.01.30@ 20:25:53 -0600 under  BASH, Linux, MySQL, PHP

This is in continuation of my previous blog entry. In that, I shared my scripts/codes to generate a decent looking, well-paginated photo gallery using PHP and MySQL.

OK - only 5 of my 11 picks for the ongoing NFL Playoff season turned out to be right, and more importantly, my favorite team - New England Patriots - played uncharacteristically to loose another Super Bowl appearance. But no regrets - Colts played really really well in the second half to win the game. [...]

When you wake up early on a Saturday morning, without the aid of any additional device (such as an alarm clock and/or some on calling,…), you know [...]

SIESTA & Global Warming

2007.01.16@ 20:18:39 -0600 under  Linux, Research, SIESTA, VASP

I knew this would catch your attention - before you come out all the way to Houghton to kill me, give me a fair chance to explain: I will start out with describing the title. SIESTA is not what you generally know it as - but it’s an acronym for Spanish Initiative for Electronic Simulations [...]

Hmm… Well, this NFL regular season flew past in a jiffy and play offs begin in just a few hours from now. Following is something I have never done before, at least not in this format.
