    Finally I am a geek.

    Dual monitors are great (except when you have to move out of a dorm room and carry around multiple 19in CRTs), but my roommate was using a triple monitor setup for most of this past year (15in LCD, 17in LCD, 17in CRT).

    The RUNNING thread : All Runners cmon in!!

    I'm just running as conditioning for Ultimate Frisbee, so we do a mix of long and short running and are moving towards shorter faster runs. Our schedule is usually something like a 5-8 mile run, 1 mile race, 2-4 mile run, interval training, 2-4 mile run, and stairs or short interval training...

    PIMETA pics (?300k)

    A few pictures I took today while starting to do the casework for the PIMETA I've been building. Since I'm building it in the basement, and there's wood and the appropriate tools I'm making a wooden case. Since the IC's I got were all SO-8 I soldered them to the bottom of the board...

    Bithead vs. Transit + Vibe?

    Based on what I heard at a meet, I preferred my PowerWave + Cmoy to a Bithead, I mainly was listening to a SR60, SR225, HD280 and DT770 at the meet. This was head-to-head with both running from my laptop.

    What's the origin of your username?

    Jhawk was a nickname I got in physics as a freshman in high school. I'm not quite sure how I got the nickname, but it was a hell of a lot better than many high school nicknames so I was fine with it (some people from that class called me jhawk throughout high school). Anyways, 1729 is a cool...

    A picture of a Fox-Renard 220 bassoon (not mine which is at home while I'm at college). It's a great instrument and I love it, how it looks, how it sounds, how it feels. However, it's a pain to move, nobody has any idea what it is, and I just don't have the time to give it the attention it...

    Cool bit of (binaural?) headphone listening courtesy of Pink Floyd

    Try listening to "Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast" from Atom Heart Mother with headphones, that's freaky, the binural recording of somebody making breakfast with a leaky faucet in the background at the begining.
