2005 07 10. Finally, I took the last (practical) sailing exam and became a sailor. To be precise - a Junior Skipper at Cal Sailing Club. It is such a big pleasure to be able to take a sailboat into San Francisco Bay on your own. But I still need a lot to learn about sailing and navigation. The more I learn about it the more I understand the power of the water and how we need to respect nature and its rules.
2005 07 09. This time I will prove you, that I do speak not only Lithuanian. The purpose of this is the fact, which concerns my fellows from Department of Nuclear Engineering. These tennis geeks involved me in this fascinating sport and I've started enjoying it very much. So, I want to introduce you my three trainers and opponents (if it is correct to use such a word, of course). From the left to the right are: Dan Hua (I think I could win against him, but recently he tries to avoid me. Isn't that true?:)), Gonta or Daisuke Kawasaki (I don't think I can beat him at this stage, and as he is leaving Berkeley pretty soon, probably it will never happen.) and Grant Fukuda - The Pro of Department of Nuclear Engineering (This guy is unbeatable and his game motivates me for improvement).
Below is a picture of a new rising tennis-star. Actually, it's me:).
2005 06 20. Jau kuris laikas, kai populiaru kompiuterių CRT displėjus keisti į LCD, nors dar ne kiekvienas išdrįsta atsikratyti savo senu monitoriumi. Kai kurie žmonės dar ginčyjasi, kuris iš šių tipų yra geresnis, diskutuoja apie privalumus ir trūkumus. Kiti paprasčiausiai neturi lėšų investuoti į sparčiai besikeičiančią kompiuterinę techniką. Aš būtent tokiems kompiuterių entuziastams papasakosiu kaip pasidaryti skystų kristalų displėjų patiems ir nemokamai. Taip, viso projekto biudžetas 0 dolerių! Bet, vis gi, kažko tai reikės. Ir reikia būtent ... amerikiečio. Tiks ir koks universiteto profesorius - taip jau nutiko mano atveju. Pasirodo, kad jis nežinodamas, jog displėjų nuo kompiuterio galima atjungti VGA jungtimi, tam reikalui panaudojo peilį - įdomus sprendimas. O kadangi vėliau jo prijungti prie kompiuterio nesugebėjo, išmetė.
