I have a BS in Physics and a BA in Mathematics from Lenoir Rhyne College in Hickory, NC. I am currently a Graduate Student at Appalachian State University where I am working on my thesis project, a Voice Output Barcode Scanner and Color Sensor for the Visually Impaired using an 8051 Microcontroller.
8052.com is a great site for
anyone interested in the 8051 series microcontroller with tutorials, a message board,
and a code library. I have found it very useful for research or help using the 8051
microcontroller.
Truth or Fiction is a
great site to research urban legends. It also has a front page with the day's most
popular email forwards. You know, those "forward this and Timmy will get a new leg"
emails? Well this website debunks them. It is an easy and polite way to discourage
unwanted forwards (I send a link to the page debunking whatever the email said.
People start realizing that you think they are idiots after a while and stop sending
the offending email).
The Tomato Nation is an
interesting website with Editorial type articles. The writer for the site always has
an interesting perspective on everyday life.
Hey, why don't you take a look at my Resume and
Drop Me A Line if you wish to speak in
