Flash CS5 beachballing for me suddenly…
I have been using Adobe Flash CS5 for some time now and I really like the IDE. I’ve paired it with Flash Builder 4 and I have been having tons of fun. However, yesterday I installed the AIR 2 release …

How to guarantee to lose that great shot
Tonight as I drove home having picked up dinner at Lotus Flower, I pulled to the side of the road. A nice sunset, a great amount of clouds. Light hitting some fluffy cattails. I took my camera with me as …
AS3, AIR, calling document class methods from a spawned window
I am creating an AIR application that spawns a new window, so there is a main application window and also another window. One can manipulate data in either window, and data is synchronized between the windows. So when I adjust data in the main window, I update the UI and data that’s in the secondary window.
I just bucked up for a tripod
I just decided to buck up and purchase a better tripod and after a lot of research I kept coming back to the Induro AKB2 tripod kit. I found it online marked down from $254 to $181. This includes a …
Photographing Cars At Night
I realize that’s it’s probably just one of those things that someone coming into photography needs to get out of their system, but I had a lot of fun doing it anyway. Photographing cars in the evening to capture those …
Flash Builder
I have to admit to not liking Flex Builder at first – unless of course I wanted to create a Flex application. The whole course of creating a project for everything isn’t difficult, but it formalizes the whole process. Sometimes I just want to get into it and start banging out some quick classes and prototypes. I have… (more)

Those in the Flash community when looking to solve a technological problem come up with a singular solution. We’ll bang it, slam it, heat it, cool it, bend it, trim it, do whatever we can to hack something into formation in the pursuit of providing a working solution to the problem. Often-times this may even work… (more)
The Apple iPad
LED-Backlit IPS Display
The high-resolution, 9.7-inch LED-backlit IPS display on iPad is remarkably crisp and vivid. Which makes it perfect for web browsing, watching movies, or viewing photos. With iPad, there is no up or down. It’s designed to show off your content in portrait or landscape orientation with every turn. And because it uses a display technology called IPS (in-plane switching), it has a wide, 178° viewing angle. So you can hold it almost any way you want and still get a brilliant picture, with excellent color and contrast. (more)
This is a test post about Flash, HTML5 and Javascript engines
I have been reading an awful lot in regards to the seeming end of Flash use around the internet for video and general use. Apple and Adobe doesn’t see eye to eye on the matter. Whether it’s around the money generated by the iTunes Store, battery life, the lack of a mouse on an iPhone/Touch/iPad, etc. I have seen a great amount of astounding technology lately. In the form of… (more)

Greetings from the future
Blogger has now instituted a non-FTP way of doing things, and on May 1st that technique of blogging will be tossed out the window. I could migrate and retain all of that information, but I have always been curious about WordPress and all of the nice things that can be plugged into it. So I thought to myself, “why not try it out?”
And so I have. I haven’t been blogging a whole lot recently but I have been pretty busy with things you might find interesting. So I decided that a fresh start would be welcome by both me and the public… (more)
