Interesting physical layer implementation
I’m always fascinated by the flexibility of layered networking models. Here is the physical layer of the OSI model using Bongo drums, while still running a proper network stack with TCP/IP. This rules! http://eagle.auc.ca/~dreid/
Grades are all caught up
Wow it’s been a busy Saturday here at the northern command bunker, but I’ve finally caught up on all the grading I’ve needed to do. All labs, quizzes, and exams that have been graded have also been entered into Blackboard and anything still showing as a dash (-) is something I do not have. I’ve […]

When Teachers Make Me Mad
I ran into this today… http://linuxlock.blogspot.com/2008/12/linux-stop-holding-our-kids-back.html Summary: Teacher sees student showing off Linux and handing out Live CDs.

I have worked for years […]
Quiz and Exams are re-open
A few students have been having trouble with the quiz and exams on blackboard. Thank you to those who’ve sent me email about the various problems. I’ve re-opened all quizzes and the exam and they will all close on the 15th of December. That’s the final day I can leave the items open and still […]
Thursday lab will start a tad late, say 6:45ish
I got into a longer than expected call/email thing and therefore I’m running late for lab. I’ll be there in about 30 minutes and we can get started.
