Tropical Storm Alpha!

Well, it looks like we’ve finally had to go to the Greek alphabet. Alpha has been named. This has never happened in the history of named storms! http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/refresh/graphics_at5+shtml/210051.shtml?3day

I Made the News!

I was featured in this Sunday’s Raleigh News & Observer! There was a section about a proposed commuter train in the Triangle. Feel free to read the article. The more publicity regarding commuter feedback, especially on I-40, the better!

Another Accident on I-40

I am going to start keeping a tally of all publicized accidents on the I-40 segment from Wade Ave to US1/64. Since the NCDOT doesn’t see the widening of I-40 in this area as a priority, I thought it would be good to show what their negligence is causing. Here is today’s (courtesy of WRAL.com)… […]

Europe 2005!

Finally, following seven years of talking and planning, Stacey and I decided to take our long-awaited trip to Europe this summer. Ever since I completed my semester abroad in London (1998), we decided that we would return to Europe again…together.

Raleigh to Durham – Finally A Local Call!

<a href="http://msnbc.msn.com/id/9575756/” target=”_blank”>’Bout time… I have always found it hard to believe that a “local” call from Raleigh to Durham wasn’t actually local. It looks like most of us “Raleigh-ites” will finally not have to pay (i.e. use cell phones) to call Durham.

ColdFusion Report Builder – Documentation?

I’e been using CF report builder since it was released. While it certainly is a great (and highly touted) feature of CFMX 7, it has quickly become apparent that work on the app was rushed to completion in order to be able to include it with the 7 release. I won’t go into the specific […]
