Posted by Admin | Filed under General
It had to happen. The WAV Media site will be getting a simpler, cleaner look in a few days. All the info on one page.
I’ll update the blog when it happens.
Fall off the face of the Earth?
Posted by Admin | Filed under General
Not quite. Still glad the Earth is round though..
At the end of April I gained some part-time employment at Staples. C’mon by and if I’m there, buy a computer and everything you need to go with it!
I have been trying to do as much video as possible and just giving it away hoping to get some recognition.. maybe it would turn into something. (Sometimes) you just have to make your own success. The economy is not in a good place and summer is better than half over here.
Blues Marker Dedication Ceremony
Have a house for sale on North Haven Island. $127k. Interested? Let me know.
Job Hunting
Posted by Admin | Filed under General
Well.. After 20+ years at the same job, I’m unemployed.
Laid off on October 22nd, due to lack of work and a “logistics” issue (they say), I now am hunting for something as income to make it through the winter.
I’ll keep you posted.. Career Center on Monday and a Dr.’s appointment in the afternoon. It will be an eventful day.
Wind Power

VINALHAVEN ISLAND, MAINE – September 12, 2009
Three big wind turbines are being erected out on Vinalhaven. These are visible from the mainland 12 miles away and will be operational sometime in November of this year.
This is the only island wind power project on the east coast of the US.
The middle is the Cianbro crane that’s doing all of the heavy lifting. To either side are sections of two turbine columns.

Just set up another WP Blog/Website for a friend who promotes and reviews regional (and world) music. In fact, his first site review is a band called Lowpitch. Interesting music.
So hop on over and check out Disc Frisk Presents. (Link opens in new window.)
Summer?
Posted by Admin | Filed under General
Not sure when it’s going to start. (I have my little space heater on right now!) Yes and it’s July 24th! The temperature right now is only 61F outside. The weather has been terrible all summer. Only had 3 days of sunshine in June!
Our Maine Lobster Festival starts here next week. Five days of food and entertainment at Rockland’s Harbor Park.
I’ll try to pop back in here before fall.
In the Dead of Winter
Posted by Admin | Filed under Uncategorized
What’s that I wrote about the first snow? I was right. The city barely plows when we have a plow able snowstorm. They did manage to kill two of my trashcans with the city plow. I think they feel guilty about it as now the plow out my driveway after I leave for work. That’s okay by me, I’ll buy a couple more trash cans in the spring!
Here we are in February and I’m told the Groundhog said we’ll have 6 more weeks of winter. Well, I have news as we always have 6 more weeks of winter until the sun crosses the equator! It’s an excuse for them to have a festival in the middle of winter. I’ll stay inside where it’s warm.
First Snow
Posted by Admin | Filed under Uncategorized
Well.. it did finally shed some white ice from the sky. We must have got about 2 inches of the heavy wet variety. I can’t believe that the City actually thought this was plow able. We’ll get a foot of snow in January and they won’t bother.. I’m sure my road will be a cavern by spring as the plow keeps pushing an extra layer of pavement onto the roadside every time they do plow. (Sigh..)
PCDJ DAC-3 Arrives
Posted by Admin | Filed under Uncategorized
My new (heck of a deal) PCDJ DAC-3 controller and PCDJ Red and DEX Software are here. 
Installed and running daily as I figure out ‘how-to’ do all the looping functions and save the loops, trigger and import into Acid. This thing has so many features, it’ll be months before I figure them all out – with my hectic schedule that is.. Here are some shots of the hardware installed in the rack and skin on the computer monitor.

Acid Pro 7 Arrives
Posted by Admin | Filed under Uncategorized
The new Acid has been released with its many new features. It’s installed and I’ve been reviewing some of them. A different added interface (the old one is still there) but it’s 
more intuitive – more like a real mixer.
New music arrives at Acid Planet this winter after I get my feet wet.
