Finally figured out how to fix some of the bugs and problems I had with jsTetris last night as I was laying down to sleep (I hate that). Each list element needs to have a property, State, which takes one...

I (pretty randomly) came across an awesome series of Photoshop tutorials on deviantart.com (good place to wander around if you’re in a creative funk). I haven’t done any heavy Photoshop artwork in quite a while now, regardless, my technique never...

Saw the Dalai Lama!

Saw the Dalai Lama!

Quite a long weekend. It culminated on Sunday with the lecture given by the Dalai Lama at my alma mater, Rutgers. I also attended a wedding the same night; quite a spectrum of events to absorb in one day. I...
