Been doing some work with the HTML generator, and found a major bug in the program already. For some reason it will not allow embedded images to be linked. I don't see why the program has that bug the W3C makes no mention of doing away with linkable images on web pages. I'll file a bug report and go from there I guess. Till I get something that actually works correctly though, I'll have to manually insert the anchors for linking images. Go figure the program is the W3C's own Amaya browser/XHTML editor.
The latest "really cool announcement" from TheOtaku.com/Myotaku.com's own founder Adam is great, for those of you living or traveling near Las Vegas. AnimeFF occurs in January if you want to check it out. It's a little frustrating for me to see news like that because West Virginia is out of the loop a whole lot with cons.

I grew up to a lot of music, spanning genres and decades, that's probably why I like so many different things. Hotel California is a unique song, the best way I can describe it is "my mind in a nutshell". It's a haunting, kind of creepy, and mysterious sounding song at first, but the more you think about the lyrics and flow of the music, you tend to pick out the complex little eddies and currents that hide beneath the surface, just like getting to know me, right?
I hope they get finished soon too, they are doing a thorough job from the sound of things, so I'm not too worried about quality.

I almost didn't give the credit, but I'm trying to get back to how I used to post and crediting everything I use that's not mine. It is a great song, one of my all time favorites.
I know, it's really disruptive to have to wait, considering the goal I have set for myself on one project is to have it's first phase done by Christmas this year. That don't give me too much time and I don't think I'm close to being done yet. I'll have to sit down and make myself do some work later today.

I liked the piece, it's very well done, beyond my expectation.
Maybe you're using the wrong type of earplug. There are different shapes and they each do different things well. The straight ones (purple) are better for ambient noises like motor drones, appliances, fans, crowd murmuring, things like that, steady sounds, the bell shaped (Orange) do much better with lower frequency sounds or concussion type sounds like snoring, deep bass car radios, and gunfire, things of that nature. There are also those silicon earplugs (not pictured), but I liken them to ramming a wad of ABC (Already Been Chewed for those of you who don't know that elementary school joke) gum in your ears and advise against using them. Both of the pictured sets are at the highest rating available which is 33dB, and please note that you will not find any earplug that is 100% sucessful at blocking all sound, because your ears not only pick up sound through the air, but through your bones as well.
I don't like to use earbuds anymore because those things are more damaging to your hearing with prolonged exposure, and you can't have your earplugs in with those over them either. I had a really good set of headphones, but the wires went bad in them so I have to get a new set. Course I could always use my wireless ones when I'm around the house. Certain situations for me are more disruptive than others, I'm not a one size fits all person when it comes to social exposure. I can be in a crowed restaurant and be fine because all the other people are kept at bay by tables and space, but if I'm in a crowded store, that's different. The environment contributes a lot to how the sound is received and perceived by the listener.
I like the rain too, I hope the roof gets fixed before it rains again here so I can enjoy listening to it (My bedroom on the third floor is right under the roof so I can really hear the rain) without worrying about the leaks dripping on the TV downstairs, or on the first floor. When I go out on the Rail Trail, even though it is right next to US route 50, a four lane divided highway, you cna't hear a lick of traffic that's on it when you're out by tunnels 12 and 13, it's so serene you could get lost in it. When I can get a better DVR, I will make a recording of Bond's Creek which sounds nice, and have that up here for you all to hear.
I know, that's what has given me the energy to keep on trucking, knowing the job is almost complete.

So am I.

I've been chatting a lot about the noisy roofers lately, in any case that won't be a topic for too much longer. As far as studying goes, do whatever works. I use earplugs for meditation sometimes when I can't get my mind to turn off its attention to the things around me.
