Rossi! http://nateschmoll.com/post/i-met-gov-rossi/ http://nateschmoll.com/post/i-met-gov-rossi/#comments Sun, 02 Nov 2008 20:07:42 +0000 Nate Schmoll http://nateschmoll.com/?p=210 Nate & Dino!Well, at church this morning I shook hands with Gov. Dino Rossi.  I call him “Gov” because he won two out of three vote counts for the Governor’s race of 2004 in Washington State.  Meeting this man was awesome…he is a great leader and will do more for Washington than the last two decades of Democratic governors have done, combined.  GO DINO!

Now I can focus on friends and work…my two favorite things.  Oh, and maybe I can work a bit on this blog too =)

It’s nice to be able to say, “Yes, I have a degree,” even though it doesn’t mean a thing to people that understand how things really work.  People hire you because you have a degree, not because you are smart, capable, or any other positive attribute.  It’s very sad.

I’m going to actually be updating this thing on a daily basis, so watch out.  If you couldn’t handle the once-a-year post by me, you’re going to be in serious trouble now folks.

I’m now a big user of Twitter.  Check out my timeline: twitter.com/thenaterator!

Well, this site is still in need of some serious work.  New stuff coming soon.  I swear!

School will officially be out of the way for Spring Qrtr on June 9. Therefore, expect some visually-appealing changes within the following week. The new site will likely be WordPress-based, unless I find some niftier (is that a word?) solution.

The design will, of course, be mocked-up in the Mac Universal Binary of Photoshop CS3 and Illustrator CS3. Yay for Adobe finally getting around to things after a year and a half of Intel Macs being available!

See you in a few weeks, playa!

I probably won't get around to re-working this site until I'm graduated, married, have children, and have built my new house.

Oh, and check out my church's awesome web site: www.thecity.org

And our youth group web site: www.generationchurch.org

More specifically, it is a black MacBook (got it for size) with an Intel Core Duo 2.0ghz processor, 2gb of RAM, and a 160gb hard drive. I had the RSS problem and Apple really sucked with their support, but I won’t get into that right now.Anyways, Gears, the most awesome screensaver in the world, has been available for Mac forever. But nobody has bothered creating a Universal Binary for it! And guess what, Rosetta doesn’t work on screensavers! No PowerPC screensaver for joo!!. So I grabbed some source, tweaked it a bit, and POOF…Universal Binary! Here it is, along with source:

Gears Screen Saver Universal Binary

Gears Screen Saver Source Code for Mac OS X

Enjoy!

As you can plainly see, this site has not been updated in a month and a half. Thank school for that one ;-) I'm only taking 10 credits this quarter, but it has been hectic as ever. I thought CSS343 (the most complicated math class ever) was supposed to be the most difficult, but they just had to throw Motorola 68000 assembly at me, as well as project proposal writing. After the dust has settled and I've began an internship, you can expect a fully-redesigned, hand-coded gorgeous specimen of a web site.

See you in a month!
