Moog Inventor - dies at 71

Posted In |

{mosimage}Anyone who has ever run their fingers over the keys of a synthesizer, or danced to pounding electronic music in a nightclub, owes a debt to Robert Moog.

Moog, one of the early pioneers in electronic instruments, died Sunday at the age of 71, after being diagnosed with brain cancer in late April.

An inventor and entrepreneur, Moog came up with an early synthesizer that was among the first electronic instruments to be widely used by musicians, and was ultimately deeply influential in the development of many modern music genres, from rock to electronica."

BF2 Stats Widget

Posted In |

{mosimage}I've decided to release for public consumption the BF2 Stats Widget, that I've been working on for awhile.

The issue had been that the stat providers were changing their sig locations on a daily basis. It seems they've worked out all the issues for now, by having "delayed" stats.

Anyway, check it out and let me know what you think.

South Pacs 2005

Posted In Paintball |

On August 6th to 7th, Samford Skirmish hosted South Pacs 2005, one of the longest running and most competitive paintball tournaments in Australia.

Congrats to SWAT, who took out the Pro division and Apoc for taking out Div 1. Whilst, we didn't fair to well overall, we did okay in our own division (2W / 1D / 2L). We also had heaps of fun, there were no organization hiccups and we got to play against the best of the best including Oliver Lang, who played on one of the Pro teams for Day 1.

See you all in 2006 !
