Currently I have migrated my current server to a more energy efficient one with and UPC, and I’m in the midst of configuring a mail server to make things easier when Thrill The World starts to happen. More to come

What’s Goin’ On

Finally have my MBP up and running via Boot Camp with the latest build of Windows 7 (7048), it all seems pretty smooth. Although the touch pad is pretty crappy in Windows, doesn’t recognize taps as nicely as Mac OS X does, but I have a USB mouse to deal with that. Although set to expire in August of this year (rumour has it) I plan to see what I can and can’t do. Although Firefox does act up on it. It will lock up the entire system and I’m forced to do a hard reboot (hold power button down). Sadly I also realized that I formated my external HDD as a HFS+ and thus have no access to it *sigh*. So I’ll have to back up format it and then try again. 32GB is SOOO not enough for a Windows 7 partion. After a clean install I’m already sitting at just over 14GB! However I knew it would be big, just not that big. I’m also still trying ti figure out why Wordpress refuses to let me use “SEO happy” permalinks in my URL, and it’s quite frustrating… Gonna have to do some more forum trolling.
EDIT: Feeds and Permalinks now working (b^.^)b

さしぶりだね。。。
And for those of you that don’t read Japanese: It’s been a while…
I’ve been super busy since school started with various endeavors tasks and assignments, but I’m trying to keep my sanity. I’m actually cooking up a midnight snack before I hit up some physics. I just thought I’d take some time now to summarize my absence.
First my Tenba shootout back pack. It’s AMAZING. It fits everything I need and then some. I’m able to get all of my gear into minus some drop cloths and a light stand but it holds everything I need for a location strobe shoot. This snuggly houses all my cables and doodads, batteries and chargers, a soft box, umbrella, two strobes, wireless triggers, Canon S1 IS, Holga GN, Filters, 5in1 reflector, Canon EF 50mm II, Canon EF-S 17-55mm, Sigma 70-200 DG HSM Macro II, a light stand, tripod and last but not least my 400D (and soon my MBP).
The photo here I took with my new Sigma lens, I did very little to the photo other than up the saturation. I wish I could afford the Canon IS model but alas I am a student. It was a fun time I hadn’t been to a wedding in a while and it allowed me to try out some lighting techniques which worked pretty well.

Finally…
At long last and many hours I’ve completed my site, now I just have to do a bit more sprucing and add the design page… *thud* Zzz..
