Listening to the album was a little unpredictable, I had trouble with the first few tracks. After listening to this album for a month (a ... http://blog.peacocktech.com/2009/03/24/avenged-sevenfold/ These two albums were bought without research. While waiting for an order of CDs to arrive, desperate for something to listen to I picked up a few albums in Wagga. Cryptopsy - The Unspoken King Never having heard this band before, I was enticed by a review on the cover; "...time signature ... http://blog.peacocktech.com/2009/02/01/cryptopsy-and-nevetherym/ As those who follow me on twitter may know, I'm making an effort this year to listen to more new music (new to me, not necessarily new releases). I have found my enjoyment from playing and listening to music has dropped since I left uni, where having access to 30+ ... http://blog.peacocktech.com/2009/01/31/new-music/ Well, long time. Finished assignments, and end of term. Spent a few days working with tapestry, trying to write a library. Seeing as there's little documentation it was more or less trial and error, but got it working in the end. have an eclipse environment set up for developing it. Also ... http://blog.peacocktech.com/2005/09/11/finish-term-linux/ Battle of the bands comp tonight at the crow bar, the standard much higher than previous years. Completely blown away by the second band, "Jennifer Will Drown", mostly by the guitarist who effortlessly played complex and beautiful melodies. Hadrien was most impressed by the drummer, who he saw perform with ... http://blog.peacocktech.com/2005/08/25/jennifer-will-drown/ Been (very) busy the last few days, although I don't have a lot to show for it. Installed MediaWiki on my Apache server (about my only success). Tried to get WikiPDF working. Its obviously designed to run on Linux. After a bit of tweaking I got it to generate latex, ... http://blog.peacocktech.com/2005/08/18/working-hard-doing-nothing/ Last few days have been pretty quiet.

Caught up on sleep, and played some guitar. Figured out a few Bread (alt) songs (their more up-beat electric guitar tracks). Got a very quick response from my query on the forum, probably enough to infer the answers to my major queries, I'm a lot ... http://blog.peacocktech.com/2005/08/04/rest/ Another 382 lecture, nothing terribly exciting, mostly business centred stuff, not too bad though (not my favourite field). Had an idea today of what I might be able to focus on in this subject. I haven't re-read the criteria yet to understand it better, so I don't know if this will ... http://blog.peacocktech.com/2005/08/02/books/ Alan and I today looked into CSS. Al wanted to "customise" his blog. Decided to have a look too, as i previously knew nothing about CSS. Tweaked my page, from this to this, by changeing only the CSS (and adding a few jpgs). Clayton reccomended oswd (this in particular) as ... http://blog.peacocktech.com/2005/08/01/css/
