Due to Multivariable Calculus, I’ve finally converted to a TI-89 Titanium… the TI-84+ just can’t cut it anymore. It’s served me well (since 7th grade!) but I feel it’s time to move on.

Water Rockets
So we just finished up our unit in Engineering Tech on water rocketry, and I figured I’d post some pictures of our rockets. They all beat the required 150 foot height by a decent amount—our highest was about 260 feet from the ground, as measured by the rather inaccurate triangulation based altimeters.

(P)SAT(2)
My next two weekends will be filled with SATs of some sort… the SAT2 Chemistry next week, and the PSAT the week after. Hopefully after these are done I can relax… until school catches up with me.
Surprisingly, this weekend I’m not that busy. I watched Law & Order for the first time last night… and spent another half hour or so playing Team Fortress 2. I doubt this homework load will continue; it would not be totally unexpected to have the karmic opposite next week… just when I don’t want it.
FlexLab
I’m playing with the FlexLab right now… it could use a decent amount of improvement. It appears to be some version of a reshelled VNC client-server paradigm. It has the same, annoying lag – maybe 100ms, minimum. Seems totally overrated – horrible interface and latency problems. It also doesn’t have any resolution to speak of: 800x600px – I don’t know what they’re doing.
