________I got my ticket for hope months ago, so I'll be there. =]

________It's in two weeks, weekend of the 21st. Yea, it costs $75 unfortunately :( or $60 for prereg, but that ended a few days ago.

________Hey Jeff. When is HOPE? If it was this weekend then, probably not since it is Sunday already . Do you have to pay or anything?
| <07-06-06-12:49pm> | =======// shayolinpunk \\===========
________Hello Russ' website! Anyone reading this going to HOPE this year?
| <05-20-06-07:20pm> | =======// marfastic \\=============
________yeah scrollwheel stuff is really hard to implement in flash, but I would have liked to have added that if time allowed as well.
| <05-19-06-11:27pm> | =======// urgo666 \\==============
________nicely done. Just wish I could use my scrollwheel you scrollwheel hater you

_______If anybody is looking to create some very nice looking javascript animation effects, I would strongly recommend the lightweight package Moo.fx (http://moofx.mad4milk.net/ . I even created my own custom effect from it in like two minutes to change the y position.fx.yMove = Class.create();fx.yMove.prototype = Object.extend(new fx.Base(), { increase: function() { this.el.style.top = this.now + "px"; }});
________We just launched a project at Rokkan that I have been working on, it's featured at http://timewarner.com and you can find the direct link at http://www.timewarner.com/corp/2006_Profile/ . I worked on a lot of the programming side of the project but you can still see my contributions sprinkled throughout it. Check it out...

________YAY! Thanks mang =)
| <04-20-06-12:14pm> | =======// marfastic \\=============
________Ok Jeff, I have deemed these changes acceptable enough to add your new link to my website .
| <04-19-06-01:14pm> | =======// shayolinpunk \\===========
_______LOL, that's true, I need a freaking kick in the pants. I'll go make a better placeholder with links to my Flickr, del.icio.us and so forth...is that good enough? You can get to my pictures then :D
________I've updated the site a tad =) Now instead of just a logo it's a logo AND two links. Web 2.0-riffic!
| <04-17-06-12:12am> | =======// marfastic \\=============
________haha no kidding Jeff. I would be more than happy to change the link, but changing a link to a place holder that has been there for like 8 months? I don't know man, I need some content, anything! Put some of your graffiti pictures up there, those were cool.
| <04-16-06-07:48pm> | =======// urgo666 \\==============
_______he'll replace it once you get content there. ETA: never
________oh also, can you take the www. out of my link? thanks =]
| <04-14-06-03:35pm> | =======// shayolinpunk \\===========
_______I don't reboot this work machine much but after maybe a week straight of having Firefox open, it was using 900+ MB of RAM all by itself.
________Oh, and can you replace the link to my site sometime? it should go to http://bitprophet.org now
| <04-13-06-03:14pm> | =======// marfastic \\=============
________Yeah I have heard that is a common complaint about Firefox, and while I have seen it grow up to 150mbs of ram. I have never really seen it get out of control.
| <04-12-06-04:04pm> | =======// shayolinpunk \\===========
_______OS X is the same way; it's *useable* with the stock 512MB but putting in more definitely helps things. I recently went from 768 to 1.5GB in my laptop and even that bump helped things a bit.
________Firefox still eats it all after a day of running though :( :(
| <04-05-06-11:18am> | =======// marfastic \\=============
________I just threw a new stick of 1GB ram into my new laptop and I am pretty amazed with the performance increase. Who knew that 512mb of ram really isn't enough in Win XP. Anyways if anybody is running Win XP with less than a 1Gb of ram I would definitely recommend putting down the extra 70 bucks on another stick.

________Well I finally got around to posting all those pics from High School/Early College, that I used to have awhile back on rs.com. So check it out http://russellsavage.com/gallery_of_russell_savage/view_album.php?set_albumName=highschool_pics . Oh and a minor rant, people should really use this gallery because I do a reasonable job of backing it up/maintaining it, and this way we can ensure that your photos will be accessable even 10-20 years from now. Instead of lost somewhere in the internet ether.
| <03-12-06-01:58pm> | =======// urgo666 \\==============
________Yes, yay!
| <02-21-06-05:02pm> | =======// shayolinpunk \\===========
________YAY FOR AIMBOT!!! :D
| <02-16-06-04:24pm> | =======// marfastic \\=============
_______hello
_______AWESOME! The aim log is working again. Yay! I modified the excellent aimbot JaimBot (http://jaimbot.sourceforge.net/ ) to get it up and running again. I am also running it with the open source java runtime GIJ, so hopefully that won't make it act wacky. So you can once again post to my website by iming rsd0tc0m.
________A new feature I have added to rs.com is that the music area on the frontpage is automatically updated with the latest song that I have played in Itunes. I was able to get this setup through the neat Itunes plugin Now Playing http://brandon.fuller.name/archives/hacks/nowplaying/ .

_______ looking for super cheap stuff on Ebay? Go here http://www.lastminute-auction.com/
_______ Well this is mostly for my use anywas (since I can't download torrents at my work), but looks like Kevin Rose from TechTV fame is still "televising" himself http://revision3.com/ . Looks like they covered some interesting stuff.
_______ well I haven't posted forever on here so I thought I would leave you with this link http://www.birdwatchersdigest.com/site/backyardbirds/hummingbirds/mantis-hummer.aspx .
________ You may have noticed that the rsd0tc0m aim-bot is no longer available. AOL seems to be blocking the TAC program I was using for this, so unfortunately until I find a workaround this feature is going to be down. I hope to get it up again soon.

_______ I like lefty radio . Listen to air america radio http://www.airamericaradio.com/ it helps you keep your sanity.
_______ phew finally after having to miss Air America Radio for like a week, I finally found a stream that works (the official one was broken, I think it was the web proxy). Here is the stream location http://cc.liquidviewer.com/radio/standard/radioplayer.php?UID=4
________ ok that wasn't the best radio stream because they don't play Randi Rhodes, which I like a lot. So after a lot of work I found another one here http://xgen.vitalstream.com/mcasx.asx?media=1904793&package=1837674

________ You know I am not that convinced that google is such a great search engine. I have given it many helpers to spider my webpage (a non-javascript version of my menu, a psuedo-site map which are those linked dots on the top), but all it can find is the main page. I mean if MSN and yahoo can do it you think google could. Well atleast I still like gmail.

_______ Stop the dry humping! If you dry hump a woman, you are killing a potential baby. (hey this isn't a family website, I can say that)
_______ ugh I haven't updated rs.com forever. There should be some new features soon though. I have been slyly been working on features that I have wanted to have on rs.com at work, by also implementing them for the intranet. Afterwards they won't be hard to port over to here. Silly things like the weather forecast and a phone pic of the day section. Maybe someday I will actually get to redesigning the look also, but I wouldn't hold your breath.
_______ Brrr, it is freezing
_______ not to self check out this page http://www.lauenstein.tv/balance_beyond/index.html when I get home. Looks cool, but video wouldn't load at work.
________ Merry Xmas! At my work have a rule where you have to work the day before a holiday in order to get the holiday off with pay. Christmas was on a saturday so we had the option of getting monday off or having it added to our vacation time. Since I took friday off to travel home I get neither the vacation time or monday off. Yay!

________ Awesome! New beds are key. My girlfriend bought a new (king-size?) bed to replace her smaller, possibly queen-sized one a few months after I started visiting her. It was a big improvement. I used to just sleep on two mattresses on top of each other at home (and still have to when I visit)
| <12-10-04-04:10pm> | =======// marfastic \\=============
________ I got a new bed, size - queen. It doesn't take up the whole room, like I was worried it might. There is still a fair amount of room. It's so comfortable, it's the first good bed I have owned. The beds at college were pretty abysmal, and my parent's beds were antiques. Hopefully that means I will be less tired during the day which I have always had a problem with.

_______ I feel like I am in an episode of the twilight zone unfortunately this episode doesn't seem to be ending. How the majority of the US could vote for an obviously corrupt, lying president is incomprehensible. It makes me lose any hope for humanity. But last night the country decided our fate and I'll have to live with it until I find another country to call my own. So what are some of the better democratic countries to live in?

________ So I am long overdue for a brief update on what's going on in my life. First off the big news, I have finally arrived in the Big City, New York, Manhattan, Gotham City. It's going really well, I am pleased with my decision and I am suprised that the move has actually gone through without any major set backs. I am going to be rooming with my friend Chan in the Upper Easter Area of Manhattan, the area is nice it is close to Midtown. The new job is going well, I really like the responsibility I have. I am pretty much the sole person in charge of the intranet, and while it isn't much now I have some big plans for it. I almost just splurged on an Imac, but instead I decided to splurge on a 19in. lcd screen, and maybe wait till the newer powerbooks come out with the G5 processor. So if anybody is looking for a place to crash in Manhattan give me a holler.

_______ I just ordered a new power supply for my computer. I guess the lesson we learned here is don't use cheapo power supplies :(. I hope that was truly the problem and the new one works. It truly hurt to pay 60 bucks for a new one right now. I am trying to keep the spending to essentials, but I thought I had gone without a working computer for long enough. I got a Antec true330, I think it will work alright. I should be much better than the subpar Codegen I had.
_______ I bought a cd for the first time in years. I was so proud of myself. The Band is Bright Eyes, and it is an excellent album. I might have to make a habit of this buying an album thing. I am going to start painting on the weekends and I need some more music to listen to while doing so. So I figure I can buy more music and it's really just investing in my paintings. I am going to work on making developed and thoroughly worked on paintings. No more practice sketchy paintings, although I like doing those also. I am still working in Watertown at Magic-Hour. I am enjoying it there it's a good company, it's really iffy whether or not there will be a permanent position opening up for me there, but I am not taking any chances and continue to look for other work.
_______ w00t no parking tickets this week! I have started to painting on the weekends which is cool. Maybe I will have some new work in my gallery soon. I am also developing a website for a painter friend of mine. It should be a good chance to showcase my skills. Somebody better post something on here soon. I have almost run off the page :-P. I think people might be intimidated to post something on this page cause they think people actually read this page. Don't worry that is far from the truth. But don't worry this isn't another one of my desperate plees for someone to post on my webpage. Oh wait yes it is. For the love of God somebody give me a post!
_______ I thought this was a good quote made at extremetech.com "It has been said that UNIX is to computer science what Shakespeare is to English. Just knowledge of Shakespeare's classic works is essential for an English degree, no one should be granted a degree or technical certification in computer science without a working knowledge of UNIX technology and architecture."
________ Yargh I keep getting things thrown at me. This time it was a car. Don't worry I am fine. Biking back from dropping off my car in place it wouldn't be ticketing, a car took a right turn and I wasn't able to stop in time hitting it's back bumper. I saw it stopping and turning plenty ahead of time, but my hands were too far from the brakes to get there in time plus my brakes kinda suck on that bike. I bent my fork so I don't think it's really fixeable, well besides getting a new fork. So I guess I am driving to work this week, i'll just have to risk the parking tickets I guess . But it's cool atleast my life is interesting right now, I can't argue with that.

_______ So I was sick of the parking tickets I kept getting while staying with my sister in Brookline, and I have been looking for a bike for my graduation present for awhile. This weekend while I was driving up to the cabin I sard sale, that was selling some bikes. I was planning on shelling out some good money for a used bike but I found this older bike at the yard sale that was in great shape. I was ready to pay atleast 80 bucks for the bike, but the lady offered 25 for it, so I was happy to accept. It works pretty well I have been biking to work for the last two days and it's quite enjoyable. You are a little sweaty when you get to work, but nothing too bad. I have to say it's one of the better 30 dollar purchases I have made. This job is winding up in a week or so (maybe), so I don't know what will become of me after that. Probably back up to Maine to look for more work. I think I am going to break down and shell out the money for a new motherboard, so I can start using my primary computer again. Yup that's about the latest in the world of Russ. I hope you didn't zone out too much in this long winded post .
_______ hehe oh yeah. Thanks Jay for updating my nameserver and helping get russellsavage.com back up . I really have to start being my own nameserver again, but all in good time.

_______ The job search begins. I have attempted to give up coffee for the next couple of weeks. We will see how that goes. My main computer is dead, and I am starting to lean towards the motherboard as the culprit. Though I am not sure if I am going to lay down the money for a new one just yet.
________ You know I think I will take this back but I think coffee is over-rated. I have been coffeeless for 3 days now and it's going pretty well. I think that coffee was getting me too nervous anyways resulting in my incestant fingernail biting. But when you are on a schedule and you need to wake up early I still have to admit coffee definitely has it's place.

_______ Yeah Beck is truly where it's at. and Jeff I definitely want to head down someone this summer or the fall and catch a 2600 meeting. Regardless keep me updated on your linux discoveries. Well I took my last final this morning and it's pretty sweet to be done . I may have no idea what I am going to do now but right now I don't mind at all.
________ My main computer is dead(spike). I am not sure what the problem is, probably the power strip, but hopefully I can revive it soon enough. I just had gentoo running nicely on it too :(.

_______ while we're on the subject of free UNIX-clone server OS's, I'd like to mention I'm trying out OpenBSD on my sweet new server (once its new power supply comes in. damn half.com). I like the small amount of experience I've already had with it--simple and to the point, much more so than any Linux distro, even Gentoo.
_______ anyway, just wanted to say hi you damn better stay in touch after you leave school, russ

_______ hmm I couldn't find the pic you were referring to on the webpage unless it was that big pic, but I generally stick to the face icons. It's a cool pic though. Hope this one will suffice. Eww the gimps compression is pretty bad for 75% compression. I will have to remember that for future image saves.
________ It's official I have made the switch.... to gentoo that is! Sorry debian, you were a good distro but your flaws were becoming too apparent. Gentoo is pretty suive, I like starting from the bare essentials and then building up from there. I was able to get my motherboard's sound card working which is excellent cause my soundblaster live is dead as a of a couple weeks ago. So yeah I recomend it as a distro but maybe not for a linux newbie, I still recomend knoppix for your first linux distro and I still say debian is better for a server although not as a clear winner (I am using it for ed, which is currently serving russellsavage.com).

Sorry it took a couple of weeks, you know how the end of the semester can be. The bot is now running on my webserver at school (ed). I have wanted to post myself so much in the last couple of weeks and they were all really interesting comments , but I can't remember what they were now.

________hey yeah so I'm in dept (sort of) for the first time now. Stupid car insurance costing $1200 and credit card costing $200 and me only having $1100. Or something like that Anyway I paid $700 so I only have $500 left to pay later with a 1.25% interest rate I only get charged an extra $5 or so. Not bad. The credit card payment doesn't need to go through for another two weeks, and I get paid in two weeks so I'm all set. As of this moment though I'm in dept. =]

_______hehe, matt you suck. That was a joke right?
_______Has anyone noticed my asteroids game runs really choppily in linux? I think macromedia's linux version of flash is very unoptimized. Well if I ever have time I will have to try to cut down on the nested for loops and what not so I can get it running at a good pace.
_______hmm it actually seems that sites with flash everywhere are being rendered slowly on linux. Is this just because it's buggy? Anybody else having these issues? (translate anybody to Jeff or Jay .
_______Argh, maybe I am paranoid, but I find myself hesitant to search for some things on the internet. Afraid they might be misinterpreted by carnivore. Such as when I searched freshmeat for bomb (a graphical toy). The whole time I just imagined how on some database my threat level has just been bumped up to a level 4. Of course now some web spyder has just flagged my page because I used the word bomb. Bomb diddy bomb, bomb, bomb. You just can't win.
_______Stupid Umass. I head over to the Career Service Network to tell them about the shrill-loud high pitched noise that has been coming from their pump for the last few weeks. The person I talked to wanted nothing to do with even though I was just letting her know just in case they were really that dense and hadn't notice. She told me to call the Physical Plant, which I guess is an option but it really is there building shouldn't they feal some sort of responsibility to it's upkeap. Well I could see that they would just let the problem go until the pump blew up. So I did call the Physical Plant and they are sending somebody on it. Hey atleast it's getting done, but it was just so annoying that the Campus Career Center didn't want to take any responsibility to this obvious problem in their own building. Yeah sorry about the rant, but rantings fun.
_______Oh man. I was just reading my last post and I apologize for all the spelling/grammar mistakes. I guess I was tired.
________It's what you have all been waiting for, the semi-annual credit card update. $365 in the whole :(. Well it's better than before. If only I got more hours this semester I would have had it payed off in a jiffy.

_______argh, sorry about that guys. I have reprimanded my dad for iming that name out of confusion. So hopefully the next post from him won't be a post expecting me to respond. It was kind of funny the first time but this is like the 8th time he has done it.
_______Brrrrr. My car broke down. Luckily it was near a mobile station so I was able to bring it right in. The walk back was chilly! Good thing I decided to put on wool socks this evening .
_______Must stop biting finernails! It's a good thing I don't smoke, cause I imagine I would smoke with the same intensity that I bite my fingernails and at that pace I would have cancer by 25. By the way I am going to be 23 in about 2 weeks. Yes that is very old thanks. Hey atleast I am graduating soon. The years of educational torture will soon cease! I remember in elementary school thinking well only 12 more years of school and then I won't have to deal with this shit anymore. Well actually I think my mouth was a little cleaner in elementary school I probably thought "I won't have to deal with this balloney". I actually enjoyed the educational part of college. It was just the social end that I was dearly loathing (atleast for my first 3 years). Well the Umass scenery isn't the best either. Now you can see why I can't write essays! Jumping around from one thought to the next like an icescater with turrets syndrome.
_______My once glorious uptime is now not so glorious. It's averaging about two days as of lately. Looks like it's time to get a new hard drive . Anybody have a 2 or 3 gig hard drive they aren't using?
________Just curious, have you ever used emoticons (smileys and etc.) in a paper or lab write up? I am ashamed to admit I have. I don't know you are in a good mood writing it up and you feel you said something particularly clever you just gotta insert a happy face. The internet has ruined my professionalism.

_______I actually bought a game the other day. It's been awhile for me, I mainly just play the demos and whatnot. It's a racing game called Karnaaj. Stupid name but not a bad game at all. The price was right (10 bucks) and I read a review on it that said it was a solid racer. So I decided to reward them for their lack of greed in their pricing scheme.
_______Well by the time you read this I should be on the road already. I decided to take off the rest of the week and just start driving west. I am not exactly sure where, but I brought my tent and camping equipment so I should be all set. I don't have much work due this week, so it is the perfect time to do so. I know I should be looking for a job , but I was getting cabin fever and decided a couple of days on the open road is what I needed. See you guys sometime Sunday probably.
________Yeah that was supposed to be an April Fool's joke. I don't know if anybody got that, or read it on April 1st. Anyway I kind of wish it wasn't a joke. I wouldn't mind being out on the highway destination nowhere with the radio blasting with a good coffee buzz going and nothing in mind for the day. Ah yeah that sounds delicious, I'll take two.
