  1. The Life of Shakespeare

    The life of shakespeare

    I made this Flash e-learning project years ago for a college assignment. It’s fully animated with quiz sessions by a bogus Bill Cosby. For some reason, even though I put a ton of work into it and everybody liked it, I never thought much of it myself. Now, several years later I pulled it back up and laughed my ass off.

    It’s been sitting on my server all ready to show off for years, but I thought I’d give a shout out to it on this blog. Maybe someone can learn something!

    Bosinger Christmas Tree 2009

    I attempted to take an HDR photo of our Christmas tree. It didn’t work out too well, so instead I just played with what I had to make a somewhat surreal image. Merry Christmas!


  3. Windows 7 external hard drive won’t show in Computer

    Posted on: December 2, 2009

    Just had a problem with getting my Iomega USB hard drive to be recognized by Windows 7.

    Actually, the first time I plugged it in it did show up, but then something unrelated happened, something crashed and the drive refused to ever mount again.

    I opened up the Device Manager (Start -> Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Device Manager) and then expanded the Disk drives section. It looked like this:

    device_manager_01

    I guessed the one marked USB was my external drive, right-clicked and hit Uninstall

    device_manager_02

    I then unplugged me external drive, waited a couple seconds and plugged it back in. Windows automatically reinstalled this driver and now everything works properly.

    My experience installing Unbuntu after a fresh install of Windows 7 and then trying to return Windows 7 to the default boot. I ramble for a moment, but feel free to skip down to the list for instructions.
