I was given a link via an email to a super-cool World Clock that approximates various happenings around the world. This clock not only calculates deaths and births by the second like most clocks of this nature, it also tells you the causes of death, monitors the environment, and gives other interesting statistics.
The clock runs [...]

One of my life goals is to travel into space. I made that decision during my childhood (actually my initial goal was to go to the moon, but space will do) back when consumer space travel wasn’t even on the radar. It looks like the possibility of my dream coming true just got better as [...]

Although this system works well for me, it seems to be hard to navigate for others. To make things a little easier for those browsing [...]

This evening (well, it would technically be yesterday evening) I headed out to the backyard for a macro photo shoot. Basically, macro shots are ones where your subject is magnified. I’m pleased with the results of this set much more than my previous attempt because the depth of field and colours came out much nicer. [...]

Let me start off by saying that I am by no means the perfect example of a financially stable individual. As a student who loves to buy new toys (see My Camera) I often find myself splurging when I should be saving. However, I am one step closer to managing my money properly. Last night [...]
