Here is the first draft from our artist for the main character, this Is not final just a first look.

Below is a video of basic functionality of tower hero, right now the images are only stand in images until my artiest finishes.

Today i’m showing off the placing tower feature.

Tower Hero Placing Towers

I will keep you posted as updates are made.

Something that i have been very interested in is Face Detection / tracking.

I found a entry in a blog that talks about a way of doing it in OpenCV and JAVA.

I have started playing with it, and have had ok results, all that is next is to then reconize the face that it finds in the image.

• Sends email when website comes back up
• Can add multiply sites to monitor

JBackUpService is a program i created to backup my computer though out the day. I looked around and i could not find one that did everything i need it to without bogging down my computer.

Here is a list of the features that the program can do currently

• Back Up All Types of files
• Only backs up files that have changed from the last update (like rsync)
• Can set how often to check for changed
• Can exclude folders
• Can exclude file types
• Can only back up certain file types
• Can tell how many backup processes its allowed to have running at one time (one way to keep the program from taking up to much CPU)
• Can tell the program to sleep between copies, also to slow down the CPU
• Error log
• Log file of what was backed up

Currently it only runs in windows (im useing native windows commands to copy the file), if i ever have a free moment i might make it work in linux.

You can download it from my website at http://unitedwebdesigns.org/

Lets start of by saying that, I’m not in bad shape, I can play racquetball in tournaments all week long, and barely be tired at the end. And right now after day one I can barely lift my arms above my head without lots and discomfort.

On day one, the work out you have to do is Chest & Back and the Ab Ripper X.
The workout is basically lots and lots of push ups and pull ups. Before I started this program I could do anywhere from 20 to 30 pushups (depending on the day) after about 20 min on this video, I was really having trouble doing 12 push ups. The other part of this work out is Pull Up’s, now that’s one thing that should just be banned of the face of the earth. You want pain, do pull ups !! right now I can only do about 3 without a chair, and about 10 with a chair. I hope to be able to do more without a chair in the coming weeks.

Btw the Ab Ripper X SUCKS !! I could only do about 15 reps of each movement, and your supposed to do 25. I’m going to have to work my way up to the full 25 reps

Now you can support daily sudoku by displaying a mini tournament on your blog or website.

Or if you wanted to promote your own tournament you could also do that.

Found a very cool feature in MYSQL 4 today, if you have ever created a page that only shows so many records but you need to know how many records there are, so you can determine how many pages there are you could have to run the query twice, one with a limit and one with a count and no limit. But with SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS AND FOUND_ROWS() you don’t have to run your query more then once.


SELECT SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS * FROM myTable WHERE name = “bob” LIMIT 10

All you need to do is add SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS to your query. Then after you run your query, you run another Query with the below sql.

SELECT FOUND_ROWS();

After you run SELECT FOUND_ROWS() it will return how many rows where called from the last run query.
