Reasons Why 2010 is Going to be Sweet

Reasons Why 2010 is Going to be Sweet
  1. I have NO PLANS for this year -- that means I have no idea what's going to happen!  NONE!  I have nothing to lose, and everything to gain!  This is awesome!
  2. School is out for at least 8 months!  Hello, free evenings!
  3. I'm currently only working 3 days a week at GOJO!  Hello, free weekdays!
  4. Alabama is going to win another National Championship!  Yeah, I said it!
  5. I might be going to graduate school.  This means I'll at least be working toward a masters or doctorate.  One of my dreams is to be a college professor, and this would be one more step to get there!
  6. I'm going to start another business.  I'd tell you what it is, but it's secret squirrel stuff.  This time around, I'll have more time to put effort into it.
  7. I have a great family and wonderful friends to help me out!  You guys rock!
  8. There are other reasons, but... ehh... I gotta go get ready for the OSU game.  I have people coming over, and I don't want my place to look like a pigsty.
Happy New Year!

Wedding Prediction - October, 2013

Carla and I are planning on getting married sometime in October next year.  We need to pick a date, and that decision may  involve some science and mathematics.  :) For example, we want the weather to be nice.  To be more precise, we'd like the high temperature for the wedding day to be between 60 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit.  Obviously, we have both lived in Ohio our entire lives, and we have a pretty good idea of what the weather will be like.  We both hypothesised that October was a "hit or miss" sort of month; it could be cold, or it could be nice. But, for me, a simple hypothesis was not enough; I really wanted to know the probabilities of decent weather based on historical weather data.  Many websites on the Internet (i.e. almanac.com) charge you to review historical weather data, but Carla and I discovered a cool page on cleveland.com that provided exactly what we wanted.  I loaded the historical temperature data from 1903 to 2011 f...

Web Browsers You Should Support

As a web developer, generally speaking, you should consider supporting the following browsers (at the time of this writing): Chrome (latest) - the browser that sets the bar for the others; you should be using it and supporting it Internet Explorer 9+ - the browser that finally caught up with the times a bit; basically, a Chrome wannabe.  I still say that IE sucks... even if it really doesn't anymore.  Yes... I'm sour about IE8 and below. Internet Explorer 8 - the old, sad browser that we sadly still have to support for a while.  CSS 3 is not well-supported here, so we use projects like CSS3 PIE or whatever.  By the way... IE8 sucks.  I can't wait until this comes off of the list. Firefox (latest) - the browser that was once awesome and has sadly suffered recently because it's slower than Chrome... but hey, lots of people still use it. Safari (latest) - Watch out for Safari as more iPhones, iPads, Macs, and more overly-priced Apple products flood the ...

JavaScript Sticky Footer and Scroll Effect

This post talks about two different HTML/JavaScript effects: How to keep a page footer stuck at the bottom of the browser window. How to create a scrolling <div> without using a scroll bar OK. So... you have a website. You want a header stuck at the top of your page and the footer stuck at the bottom of your page. The stuff in the middle, you want to be able to scrollable. But, you don't want those ugly scrollbars to the right of your scrollable text. Maybe, instead, you'll have up arrows and down arrows above and below your <div>. When you mouseover the arrows, the text in the <div> will move up or down and create a scrolling effect. Suppose your page looks like this... <html> <head> <title>Test</title> </head> <body> <div style="position: relative; width: 700px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"> <div id="header">Header</div> <div id="scrollUp...
