DIY Pixel Goggles/Glasses instructional videos.

 Recently I have had many requests for a how to document to make Pixel Goggles. A couple of years back I made three videos for Factory 2 and they are posted on YouTube. Here is a list of what's available and a link to the videos.

Pixel Goggles 1: The original Pixel Goggles based on welding goggles.

Why did I start this blog?

I suppose the first topic of my blog should be a bit about why I felt the need to fill the internet a bit more with my ramblings and what kinds of things I'm going to ramble about. I am at a point in my life where my outlook on what is important is changing. Due to a number of factors, I find myself spending more time in contemplation. Some of this is religious and spiritual in nature and some of it is just thoughts I find interesting. As for the religious and spiritual aspects, I will say right up front that I am a proud Roman Catholic, a Fourth Degree member of the Knights of Columbus and a Senior Catechist commissioned by the Bishop. That being said, I am not attempting to produce something canon to the Roman Catholic Church. I may well say something that differs from canon. If you wish to know the "Catholic" aspect of something I write, leave me a message and I will find out. I am also interested in technology. I have a Nokia internet tablet that I have hacked to do m...

How I Make Maps for my Newton

I use an Apple Newton. I have for years. And although I am slowly moving from the Newton to a Nokia Internet Tablet, there are still times I use my Newton and still some things it does better than anything else I have found. But that is a topic for another posting. In this posting I want to explain how I make maps for use with my Garmin Fortrex 101 GPS and GPSMap Lite for the Newton. Also, this tutorial will be for making maps on a PC. Apologies to my Mac friends but I have just never made a map on my Mac. The first decision is to decide are we making a road map or a wilderness-hiking map. Both follow the same basic principles but there is a difference in the map source. For Road maps I use maps captured from MS MapPoint. I have also used Google mapping. For hiking maps I generally use satellite photos from Google Earth. I did download a special mapping version of AdobeReader and you can get pdf versions of most US topographical maps from the US geological survey web site. But I found ...

Why I am a hospice volunteer

When the phone rang at 5:00 AM I answered it right away. I am a light sleeper and come awake quickly and calls at 5:00 AM are never good unless they are from overseas or about babies being born. It was my mother. It seems my father had an infection in his leg and had gone to the hospital by ambulance. Once they had drained it, my mother said, they would need a ride home. So my wife and I got up, showered, got dressed and went to the hospital. When we arrived, a nurse in the emergency room called to me. He said your mother said you look like Santa. Then he led us to a patient elevator to go up to where my father was and my mother was waiting. On the way up he broke the news. "Your father has necrotizing fasciitis." I was stunned and my wife looked at me. "Flesh eating bacteria" I told her. Once we were in the waiting room my mother filled in what we had missed. My father had awakened in the night and told my mother that his leg hurt terribly and to call for an ambula...
