Why?

During late summer/fall of '05, I designed a new calibration product...replacing its predecessor. Today we received the new, finished version. Not too bad...but not ideal. When we finished our end of the project...color specs were given as well as membrane artwork for the touchpad (see last rendering). Both of which seemed to be ignored in favor of new choices. A little too close to Makita for my tastes, hehe. Oh well...can't win 'em all.

At least nothing was changed pertaining to overall form and two-shot :) ...One more product out there in production!

Poison

A great weekend of riding made even better with some new shades. My '06 Briko Poison's!!! Bought exactly 10 years after my first pair of Briko's in 1996. Kind of bringing back the retro sports style a bit. Love them! Good deal on them found here at BikeNashbar


Modeled by yours truly...

Jay-Dee-Em YO!

First mod to the G...JDM Nissan clear corners. Normally I tend not to care for these. And yeah, I'm sure at one point in my life I've even called them "ricey". But with the Ivory Pearl...it works.

Silly, but cool...

I don't know exactly what these things are called...A static composition tricking your eyes...

I do recall a lecture in Hancock one year. Where Bobby-D showed a series of color blocks...and the end result that your eyes translated was totally different as opposed to not viewing them in succession...

Holy Crap!

After hardly racing AT ALL this year...Jan Ullrich puts in a fine performance to win Stage 11 of the Giro. If he can only continue to lose weight for the mountains of Le Tour in July...he'll be unstoppable!!!

So for another useless ironic comparison. I noticed the spare tire cover on the Toyota Rav4 and Pfizer's Caduet logo to be awfully similar, hahaha. Obviously not totally alike...but funny how they both possess virtually the same shapes that sandwich the logos...

Semester...over!

A busy few days have kept me away from blogging...have to get back into the habit! So this week marked the end of the spring semester at Kean. Congradulations to the 06 graduates! Hard to believe this was my 6th semester of teaching! 3 years! haha. The final project dealt with a quick footwear exercise integrating photoshop into the deliverables: see .pdf a few entries below. Anyway...a few of the finals below. As a whole they turned out nicely...especially for only learning photoshop rendering two months ago!
