A two minute thrill ride: Impressions from Topeka, Milwaukee and Dover as H
2008-06-03 00:57:00 What a long week of dealing with site maintenance, research and everyday surprises, but you know it was a welcome treat to have such as variety of racing going on in one weekend and this past weekend had everything from the NHRA in Topeka, the unified IRL IndyCar Series racing at the Milwaukee Mile and a triple header at “the Monster Mile” Dover International Speedway that ironically has been in the news about possibly being sold to SMI.UPS: Impressions, four drivers including three first time winners and one winning since his crash last season, we start on the east coast at the speedway in Dover with NASCAR action, mainly the truck series race where after a good pitstop and some pit strategy, a first time winner was born as the former Formula 1 driver, ARCA winner and now Truck Series driver Scott Speed pickup his first career Truck Series victory in interesting fashion. The Toyota victory was the first off three in dominating performances at the Monster Mile.When it came to fi...
Asus Eee PC Initial Impressions
2008-06-01 21:18:00 Asus Eee PC Initial ImpressionsJust when I had given up purchasing an Asus Eee PC after being duped by Buy.com, the phone rang. It was my brother in law, Rory:"I, uh, found one of those computers that you were looking for over here at Best Buy.""What? I called them on the phone and went in there and they told me that they did not have any Asus computers in the entire Rochester area," I replied a touch skeptically."Well, they only have the floor model. Do you want me to try to pick it up for you?"I thought about it for a second. The Asus Eee PC that we were talking about was the older version that only has 4 gigs of internal memory. I needed to quickly do some math."Do you think it has enough room to download Front Page on it?" I asked.Rory fiddled round with the computer while we were talking:"There is a lot of junk on it that we can get rid of; yes, I think you could do it.""Ok, buy it."He tried. --------------Wade from Vagabond Journey.com in Upstate New York, USA- June 1, 2008Son...

INTERVIEW IMPRESSIONS
2008-05-21 20:39:00 Just like for applicants, interviewers or recruiters should always project a clean and professional image when doing their jobs. This is important because it presents respectability and professionalism in the company.This does not mean that you have to be formal all the time-just presenting a respectable image would be the best approach during this situation. Of course, this includes the physical appearance like looking your best (no signs of being haggard) and being clothed in a presentable manner. It also helps if you look and are prepared when doing interviews. First impressions are not just reserved for applicants because it also applies to all HR personnel. The way that you present yourself towards the candidates is the way that they associate the company to you. This means that your stance as a recruiter adds up to the credibility of the firm hence the need to be presentable. Image source: Stockxpert

Refurbished MacBook: First Impressions
2008-05-15 18:29:00 Just a little over an hour ago, the refurbished MacBook I ordered yesterday arrived. Let's gloss over the fact that I missed the delivery, due to being in college, but fortunately, we got in touch with the delivery company, and they would try contact the driver, and see if he could try and deliver it again. And since I'm typing this post on the MacBook, he did. Upon opening the box, and removing the protective foam, you are presented with the MacBook, cables, power supply, Apple Remote, and the Installation discs and manuals. It's nice and lightweight... especially when compared to my old 8 year old laptop. The keyboard layout, will take a little getting used to, but you always get that when you use different ones. As usual with new computers, there's always a big backlog of update to install, but that went pretty quickly, but that was more to do with the fact that I was using a wired connection, rather than the wireless. I do have access to Wi-FI in the house I'm...

Kings of Babylon Impressions
2008-05-01 21:15:00 I've been playing a new web based game. Unlike most of the online flash games I play this one actually is slow paced and rewards you for playing over time. Here is a brief synopsis of the game from their viewpoint "Kings of Babylon ("KoB"), is a team-based, empire building wargame where you will start as a peon with a single village and build your way up the ranks and to control multiple villages. All the while you'll be coordinating with other realm members to protect each other and to conquer your enemies." It reminds me a lot of Civilization but with hundreds of people playing. There are 12 Realms, or teams, in the game that work together to protect each other from the other Realms and to build their towns faster.The game is very slow paced, but has a ton of depth and strategy that I'm really enjoying. The game keeps going while you're not there so you can start a new farm or mill building and then leave and come back to check in on the game the next day. Also, the gam...

In the world of open-source operating systems, first impressions count
2008-04-26 01:47:00 One of the reasons the Ubuntu project is doing so well is that it puts a cleaner, slightly more polished face on what starts out as Debian. The new user doesn't know that Ubuntu pulls a lot of packages from Debian Unstable. Instead, they think of the Canonical-run distribution as "a Linux for the rest of us." Sure, marketing is involved, but at the core, Ubuntu is a fairly solid system -- mostly because it's based on Debian.

Lost Cities Impressions
2008-04-23 23:14:00 I also checked out Lost Cities today on Xbox Live Arcade. I generally don't play a lot of board and card games on XBLA. It is not that I don't like them, but there are just other types of games I prefer more. Lost Cities is pretty fun - not great, but still fun if you like this type of game.The game is a strategy card game basically that is played with two people. You have to play your cards in a strategy that gets you more points than your opponents. There is an element of chance that effects the outcome because you draw cards from a random deck. So, if you partner just gets much better cards and has an ok strategy he could probably beat you even if you have a great strategy but get lousy cards. Fortunately the cards are randomly drawn so you'll most likely get pretty even cards. Then it is up to you to have a better strategy.I played the trial a few times and was beating the AI pretty badly. It was actually kind of boring after about the second time. I think this game wo...
Rock and Bullwinkle Impressions
2008-04-23 23:05:00 I decided to check out Rock and Bullwinkle on Xbox Live Arcade today. What a waste of time. This game is garbage. It is designed to be a party game with a Rock and Bullwinkle theme. Basically you have a lot of little games all in a row, but the games are so ridiculously short and easy that it was annoying. Most of the mini-games you play using just a single button or thumb stick. I'd guess that somewhere around half of the mini-games that I tried I literally pushed one button and either won or lost. Most without even knowing what I just did. Going into it I did not know that it was a bunch of mini-games I thought it would be like playing through some episodes of the story in and adventure game mode. If you're looking for a party game try Rock Band or Scene It. Leave this piece of garbage alone.

Iron Man Demo Impressions
2008-04-21 22:11:00 It has been a while since there was a demo on the Xbox Live Marketplace that I really cared to try. Normally games based on movies are not ones I'd bother checking out, but I'm a fan of the Iron Man comics and the new movie looks pretty good so I gave the demo a shot. Maybe it was intended to be that way sine it is a demo, but it seemed pretty easy to me. Since you pretty much auto lock-on to targets you only miss if you are to far away to get a lock. Still, I had fun flying around shooting stuff and punching things to blow them up.The one aspect of the game that has me really intrigued is the options to upgrade your suit. The demo only gives you two upgrade options, but it looks like there will be a lot of available upgrades in the full game so you can really customer Iron Man's abilities to the situation. Additionally, you can reroute power to different parts of the suit so that if you want to fly faster or have more fire power for a while you can.The entire demo pretty m...
