Another week has past at Hope Global and more issues have been resolved wit the beaded profile. We have successfully found a bonding agent to weld the synfab with the plastic bead. The only problem now, is the cost. The material we are going to use is very expensive and will significantly drive up our production cost, which in US manufacturing is a very bad thing. We are also looking into another product, which is not only cheaper, but is also already automotive approved. Well enough about work. Over the weekend I went to see the movie 300 in IMAX. I guess the movie had not received the best reviews, but that’s because they didn’t see it there. O’Man that movies was awesome on the big screen. The battle scenes were spectacular and so was the fact that all the scenery for the movie was computer generated. It was spectacular, and for those that know me, they know I hate going to the movies, but this movie was very worthwhile.

So other then that my weekend was not to bad. Went to a fun gather on Friday night where they had a DJ and I was able to see allot of people I had not seen in a long time. And Saturday night just went out with a few of the guys, and we went into Providence. I cannot wait to move into my House in providence. If you don’t know about they house or have never seen them you can check out a few pictures on my web site www.urbanandrew.com. I have found this other really great site for advertising apartments for rent and its also great for tracking property income. This site is www.iiproperty.com The best part about his site is after you set up a account and list your properties you are able to create a flyer. The flyer looks great fro one thing, and is also posted to 4 or 5 different rental sites all at the same time. All you have to do is create one flyer and iipropety will take care of the rest. Web sites such as this one are what Web 2.0 are all about. They take all these places on the web, which are all very similar and make them easy to work with, utilize, and in this ace make you money. The more and more I think about starting my own web site, and the more and more I see sites open up based around my idea, that more I just want to go for it. Many sites have opened with a similar idea to what I have, but are only a fraction as powerful as my idea.

For those of you who use a palm or if you use one of the windows pocket PC, I found a great open source browser. The Browser is called Universe www.wapuniverse.com. This open source web browser features tabbed browsing, resized web contents, and even RSS feed capability. I have used it for a few days now and it’s a very nice clean, light program. I would really like to download Opera for my palm but it does not look as though they are ever going to release a palm version due to demand, o well. I have been using the Palm T|X for about 6 months and its great. I get all my mail, docs, calendar, contacts, it def organizes my life my better for me. I recently had one of the IT guys hook up with my computer at work, and while he was syncing it up he deleted all my calendar dates, amateur. After all that he still couldn’t do and it left up to me. I was able to sync it up in about 20 mins, and then continue on my regular job, HAHA.

My friends who I worked at ski market with are here for the week, so we are all going out tonight which should be alto of fun. We might go to this place called The Abbey, which is in providence, RI
