Computer Science for Life

Rob

Whoa! I’m taking a computer science class for once! I’m taking a break from the calculus (just have to take calc 2 now). Data Structures & Algorithms II, the saga continues. When I took DSA I, it was all in C++, which was really nice. Now its in Java, which should be even better but I haven’t coded Java in a class environment so this should be interesting.

Also, I’ve registered for Beginning Russian I at Tri-C (also known as Tri-High, Tri-Again or something like that). Russian is offered at Kent and CWRU, but Kent is at a goofy hour and a pretty lengthy class. The class at Case looks pretty intense. It too is at a goofy hour during the day. U. Akron doesn’t even offer the class. Tri-C offers it as an evening class, but its the same time as DSA II. So, I’ve managed to persuade work to let me out on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.

Learning two langauges in 15 weeks – this will be hectic.

Oh yeah, Computer Science for Life! I finally had a chance to listen to MC Plus+. Great computer science tunes!

New Photo Gallery Installed

Rob

I’ve had to grab the latest version of Gallery for Nora’s website. I found Gallery 2 made it to a beta release and decided to give it a whirl. Wow! It rocks with a ton of new features. It seems a ton easier to use too. I’ve had some negative feedback about my albums with albums approach. So I’ve imported all the albums and let most of them stand on their own (some are still grouped together like the Montreal v2 trip and Tanzania trip pictures). The Gallery also supports marking things “new” and “updated” (in theory).

The really cool thing is it supports the Nokia Server API which means I can easily upload pictures directly from my phone. Nice! You’ll find them in the mobile pics gallery (which right now has a lot of junk in it).

Weather delivered to your email or cell phone

Rob

I had fiddled with this in a couple forms. I’m pulling data from wunderground.com, but tweaking it a bit to make it email and cell phone friendly. Check it out by sending a message to: weather_[5 digit US zip code] at rsbauer.com. I’d provide an example but I don’t need the spam bots spamming this. Oh yeah, you can put whatever you like for the subject and message body. (heck, leave ’em blank!)
