Wow, I am actually posting something...

A project I have worked on for over 2 years is being featured on the Discovery Channel's "Futureweapons" Show. It has already aired but I have put a copy of it on vimeo. (See the Video After the Break.)

I designed 5 custom Circuit boards, many cable harnesses, and assisted in the mechanical design for 3 motion systems on the MMW side of the Vehicle.

Hey guys. I know its been a while since I have posted. I have been busy at work.

As you may or may not know, I put computer controlled Christmas lights on my house. They are synchronized to music and free to anybody who comes by my house. This year I have only added songs and not any lights.

Here is a link to this years Videos

Here is my Main site.

Well today is black friday and earlier in the week I saw the black friday ads on bfads.net. Since my birthday was this month and I asked for money for a monitor I felt that a deal from Best Buy was great.

A " Westinghouse 22" Widescreen Flat-Panel TFT-LCD Monitor" for $199.99. Therefore, this morning my father and I got up at 4:00 am and went to best buy. We got there by 4:30 and the line was about 500 people long. It got even longer by 5:00 though It was probably about 750-800 then.

Annoucing my website for the CLAUSE Project http://palmbaylights.com

I have Launched the website, and am almost finished putting up lights. More to come soon.

Ok some of you may have wondered how I made my screen captured videos of my Christmas Light Animations. So I decided to write a tutorial for those who want to share.

First off you will need Windows Media Encoder 9. You can find it at this Link

After Installing WME 9 Then follow the following steps:

Yesterday I started putting up lights for my Christmas display. Everybody kept on saying, Halloween isn't even here yet don't put you lights up. I told them I don't want to feel rushed later because I am going to have my official lighting ceremony the Friday after Thanksgiving.

Anyway I have finished all the lights that are up on my gutterline 14 strings of 150 lights a total of 2100 lights. And I am just getting started.... Evilgrin.

I ran into a couple problems once they were up and I was starting to test them. Half of one strand of Icicles is out, I still need to go figure out what bulb is bad.

This is gratuitous self advertising, but I am selling my Dell Axim x51v PDA, I found I don't use it too much, it works fine but I would prefer having the money for Christmas presents. IE. being able to pay Jessi for her Purse Making Work that she is doing for me.

Here is the EBay Link.

I know its been a while since I have talked much about this project, but I have  been busily working on it for the past few months.

I believe I last left you off in Part 1 with Pictures of my FM Transmitter assembly completed. Since then I have assembled my Light-O-Rama [LOR] Controllers, pulled power and signal wires, Built and mounted enclosures, and sequenced some songs.

Just Left a comment on Jessi's Blog, and Made me want to share a cross stitch I had done about 8 years ago of an xwing so here it is.

As some of you may have read, my comment telling Jessi I would have a  request for her Purse making abilities. I finally got my camera back from my parents house. Therefore, I was finally able to take pictures of the dogs Harness pouch.

I will be requesting that Jessi Make more stylish versions of this pouch. Details of the Request will be in the more Read more Section.
