Went travelling to the Twin Cities and a couple of surrounding places. MN is a cool state and a KL driver blends in like a good weave ;)
Hit up Barbette and D'Amico Cucino (both around the Hennepin Ave area). Great food and Alison Rae was performing that night at Barbette (check out her music if you're into folk/country). Couldn't leave the state without checking out the Mall of America and definitely tune into Kool 108 while you're there :)

Wow. This is one piece of software that really pushes your hardware. C2D E6420 @ 3.4GHz, 4GB DDR2-667 and an OC'ed 8800GT running hacked "Very High" settings on WinXP SP2. Beautiful but a little poky.
MMM 2007 - Florida - 12 Nov '07 08:12
Just got back from the MMM conference in Tampa FL over the weekend. Nice warm weather, great scenery and great people. What else could you want? :)
Windows Handles Problem - 29 Oct '07 02:24
Been having the problem of Windows XP running out of handles recently. New windows with missing icons, "Out of Memory" messages, etc. If you're having similar problems, this will be very helpful :
Deborah Crawford (deputy director of the NSF CISE program) is giving a talk on Thursday : The Evolving Role of Computing at the Science and Engineering Frontier; Transformative Research — Thinking Big and Being Bold. Should be pretty interesting!
Revised Site is Live - 29 Aug '07 20:17
Took a little bit of work cleaning up / streamlining the databases and PHP code, but my new site is now live. Hope you like the new look!
Now back to a fun-filled Friday night, finishing up this beauty (Gurthang).
Career Fair Time - 16 Sep '05 19:37
Well its getting close to that time of year again. Time to kick off your Sunday shoes... I mean, strutt our stuff in front of potential employers (sorry, a little too much Kenny Loggins there). To that end, I've updated all the documents (resume, transcript, etc.) on the site. Should you be morbidly curious, you're more than welcome to peruse them ;)
Happy Birthday USA! - 4 Jul '05 10:57
Happy 4th of July! Today is the day folks in the U.S. celebrate independence day. Hopefully, you get to spend some QT with the family - take a road trip, have a backyard BBQ, etc. Have a safe holiday and try not to "misplace" any appendages. As for me, I'm stuck working on another op-amp project. That's alright though, I'll be sure to sneak in some Fable later ;)
The Interview is Over - 27 Jun '05 14:43
Phew... thought the interview was going to be terrible. Wasn't a walk in the park, but was too bad either. The folks at the company (I'm an EE and they're in Dallas - use your noodle a little) were pretty friendly and definitely knew their stuff. I have a feeling that it's going to be fun and challenging to be working there. Hopefully their HR gets in gear soon ;)
