05 Aug 11 D-Link DIR-655 as an AP
To give better wi-fi range than was available on a BT Voyager 2100 DSL modem, I used my spare Dlink DIR-655 router as an AP.
It was easy to do.
Connect to the DIR-655 with a CAT 5 cable (don’t do this over wireless).
Then:
- Click on Advanced and then click Advanced Network. Uncheck the Enable UPnP checkbox. Click Save Settings to continue.
- Click Setup and then click Network Settings. Uncheck the Enable DHCP Server server checkbox. Click Save Settings to continue.
- Remove the CAT 5 cable from the computer. Connect one end to a LAN port on the BT Voyager, connect the other end to a LAN port on the DIR-655.
- Reboot the DIR-655

26 Apr 11 Ballast Point IPA
Ballast Point IPA is for hopheads. It’s a malty brew too, with four malts to balance the high IBU (around 55).Brewed by the Ballast Point Brewing Company in San Diego, California.
As a hophead myself, and comparing it to the likes of Stone IPA, or Dogfish Head 90 minute, I’d have to put it in third place, but that’s only by a whisker. I really do enjoy this beer, but it doesn’t have that ‘something’ that the others have.
I can’t help but compare the aroma to a Stone IPA, and there’s a definite lack of it with the Ballast Point. It does make for a pleasant drink though, and I’d certainly give it a try.
It might be just your cup of tea (figuratively speaking of course).
Still on a scale of ten, I’d give it at least 7.5.

11 Dec 10 Snakey Bus
Best paint job on a bus ever!
If the paint job on this bus was intended to first get your attention — it is a success.
If it was intended to make you more aware of the “ZOO,” it succeeded at several levels of consciousness.
If you counted the number of accidents resulting from other drivers and pedestrians staring at the bus instead of paying attention to traffic or where they are driving/walking — probably not a success.
But it is really a great piece of art.
