This is an explanation and a confession. For those that don't know, a Model View Controller is a software design pattern. It has there parts, a Model controls the data and logic, a View draws the data to the screen and a Controller links the two together.
About a month ago I swapped over to using GMail as my primary email account. I've been very impressed with it, as I've ad bad experiences with web-based email before.
Its time for an upgrade,
Last saturday I took delivery of:
many stuffs. [There's a whole gallery of pics of lumps of computer over there ;)]
Time to see what this chip can do...
Roadrunners again last night, and a fairly brutal set it was too, made all the harder by the wind and rain. We were doing 4 sets of 4 x 600m, with a pace increase in each set. By the end of it my legs were tightening up nicely, and my hobble was coming on a treat.
Nintendo have recently started doing their equivalent to xbox live arcade or playstation network which they have titled wii ware. They have of course been doing virtual console for ages or as I like to think of it selling our otherwise worthless back catalogue to people who may already own it.
In a spectacular example of romantic gestures I've been introducing Gill to non-standard (ie not available in Woolworths) board and card games. She already has some geek crudentials (is a programmer, has completed a version of Final Fantasy, is member of a D&D group), so thought I may as well go about increasing her geek license.

Roadrunners last night was a brutal session. After a normal warm up (gentle run for about a kilometre, and some drills) we had to do a flat-out 800m, with a target of beating the time we did 5 weeks ago. I managed 2.21, which is a whole 4 seconds off my time, so pretty chuffed with that.
So it turns out my company's plan for server failures is to turn the whole shebang (sp) off for a few hours... As it's already 15:30 this probably means I won't be doing anything remotely productive for the rest of the day. I'd surf the web but I imagine our internet pipe maybe a bit busy what with every member of staff simultaneously hitting the BBC site...
Had a bit of brainwave last night... A couple of days ago I hacked together a basic graph to post up here showing heart rate zones. I also recently posted up a graph that my Polar gear kicks out showing various statistics.
