Fishy Cam Status

Fishy News

 OK, so I know that the fishy cam is not up and that is because I was upgrading some hardware on my computer. Well the motherboard had to be sent back and I should be getting a new one soon. I did acquire and new computer from Dave but i need to rig up a fan for the CPU. Thinking of making that the dedicated Fishy Cam Server. That would be nice... I would think that the Fishy Cam should be up by this time next week.

IRLP Status Script (PHP Embed)

Ham Radio

 I now have another version of the status script available. This version is intended to be called from inside of a PHP page and rendered there. You are still able to define the requested node in the query of the url. An example on how you call the script is below:

include 'http://www.towerboy.com/irlp/script_embed.php?node=3808';

IRLP Status Script (IFRAME)

Ham Radio

 In the past I had a made a PHP Script that could be used to show the status of an IRLP Node on one's website. In early November I noticed that the file I was getting my data from was changed as to how it was served up. I had two choices on how I could fix the script. Choice one was to alter the script to unzip the text file and choice two was to completely rewrite the script to parse an HTML page the served live data. If you remember back to the old script, there was a two minute lag between updates. Now it is instantaneous.

New Fishies!!!

Fishy News

Hey!!! My water in the tank is fine says the local fish store and I probably just need some heartier fish... So, my sister picked some up for me... 9 to be exact!!! I now have 12 fishies in the tank and they are as follows:

1 Albino Cory Catfish (aka: Fred)

Otocinclus

2 Blue Neon Tetras

Blue Tetras

Zebra Danios

Black Rasbora Het

 

The Blue Tetras are not blue right now. My sister said they were in the tank before they started to get them so maybe they will get there color back after they calm down and get used to the new tank... The pictures I saw on the internet shows them to be very nice looking...

Last Glo-Fish died...

Fishy News

 So, the las of the Glo-Fish died in my tank... Not sure if it has anything to do with them being genetically altered or if it was my tank or just natural... Everything else seems fine... I was told that I should have a few Snails and at least two of the Albino Cory Catfish in there... That might make everything stay cleaner longer... Who know... Monday should be fish shopping day... :)

Windows 7 Multi Touch

Technology

 I went to Costco today so my sister could get some film developed and we killed time looking around... I saw this computer and had to play with it for a bit... I love touch, and multi touch is so much better... HP makes the one that I am playing with but it is an all-in-one computer... As of now, Dell is the only Company making a multi touch monitor that is only a monitor... It is a 21.5 inch widescreen and has VGA/DVI and USB ports and will run you about $470... Oh yeah!!! I'll take two please and biggie size it! :)
