Telescope Peak October Hike
12/10/2008I’m a bad blogger. haha, I have so many trips that i haven’t blogged about! like, Thailand, Telescope Peak hiking, Yellowstone, Glacier National Park, The Grand Tetons, Banff NP, Columbia Icefields…. but hey! It’s a sneak peak 
into what will come out of me :). All of these photos are taken by Yohana and Alvaro. I didn’t bring my camera
So here we go Death Valley’s Telescope Peak October Hike:
This weekend two brave soul’s and I ventured into an adventure we had already completed during the summer expecting it to be similar, which it was…. Until we got to Mahogany Flats. Yes, we started seeing small drops of ice, oh yea. SNOW! So as we are getting closer to the top we didn’t expect that much snow! or snow period! aaaaah!
Our descent up the hill towards the trailhead was exiting! The 60 degree hill was rough! covered in 3-6 inches of snow! I’m driving the 4Runner up the hill, then suddenly we get stuck! No problem time to kick in the 4 wheel drive. I started in H4 made good ground then bam! Got stuck again! I let alvaro drive the rest, he popped it into L4 and bam! Stuck again! So we had to do manual road construction 
So after a few minutes of digging through the snow and shoving rocks under the tires we managed to make it up the hill. It was extremely cold, totally not what we expected. It was about 1:30am and it was around 20 Degrees. Yes Very cold, we looked around the sites and alvaro suggested to camp out in the snow, I opposed and we slept in the car.
We woke up around 8 am, freezing of course… Ate breakfast and headed towards the trailhead.

Joshua Tree NP trip 2008
24/05/2008Joshua tree national park is more like Flintstone land! Located on the San Bernardino/Riverside border it’s home to the Joshua tree (Yucca). Apparently these are really famous to rock climbers, and scrambling enthusiast. Depending on which entrance you enter the park through you will see big rocks piled on top of each other. When I say big I mean enormous, in photos they look like pebbles just tossed in a little section on the side of the road. Here are some panoramas:
Yohana and I took a few shots to show scale:
WOOOPS Microsoft
27/04/2008Alvaro From www.picsbyalvaro.com sent me this link today. I got a kick out if it… as i like hearing about Microsoft’s mishaps.
Massive Attack: Half A Million Microsoft-Powered Sites Hit With SQL Injection
A new SQL injection attack aimed at Microsoft IIS web servers has hit some 500,000 websites, including the United Nations, UK Government sites and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. While the attack is not necessarily Microsoft’s fault, it is unique to the company’s IIS server.
The automated attack takes advantage to the fact that Microsoft’s IIS servers allow generic commands that don’t require specific table-level arguments. However, the vulnerability is the result of poor data handling by the sites’ creators, rather than a specific Microsoft flaw.
In other words, there’s no patch that’s going to fix the issue, the problem is with the developers who failed follow well-established security practices for handling database input.
The attack itself injects some malicious JavaScript code into every text field in your database, the Javascript then loads an external script that can compromise a user’s PC.
Most of the larger sites affected have already long since repaired themselves and claim that the underlying problems in their code have been fixed. However, if you don’t want to take the chance there’s a simple way to avoid the problem — use Firefox with NoScript. Since the attack loads a script from a different domain, NoScript will stop it from running.

Welcome to the Sky
21/04/2008I’ve wanted to go skydiving for a long time, out of the blue I told Yohana, “Let’s go Skydiving on Friday!” She agreed. That weekend I had Fri-Mon off so the idea couldn’t of come at a better time.
About twenty minutes into the research phase of looking for a possible sky dive facility I found Skydive Perris (No I’m not getting paid if you click on their link. Although, that would be nice… cough cough…☺). They were my top choice just because of their track record, professional looking company, and they are one of three schools in the United States to adhere to a drug-testing program for instructors, pilots, and mechanics! Interesting isn’t it? Only three schools in the United States, WOW!
Anywhooo! We arrived, checked in, did all the paperwork and legal matters, and got video taped saying that we understood what we signed and todays date…haha sounds intense but stuff happens right?
After all of that, we were waiting in their little lounge area watching the previous skydivers maneuver into safe landings. They called our names! We were next! AAAAH!
We went into a storage-like room with suits and someone came up to me and said, “Welcome to Skydive Perris, my name is J.C. I’m your instructor”. He handed me a suit, after suiting up and strapping into the skydive gear, J.C. started giving me special instructions and took me into a cut out plane to show how we would exit since we were both above 6′ 1″ in height 
As we were walking towards the loading zone we saw the plane arriving and getting ready to drop us off at thirteen thousand feet. At this point, I already had a permanent smile on my face. I wasn’t scared, I was just excited and wanted to jump!
