As I work for a company that contracts to the US Military, I often need a good reference on what things are what.
The other day I found Gary’s Olive Drab page.
Among a great reference forUS MIL vehicles (What I normally am looking for), Gary also has references for weapons, aircraft, books, and just plan good plan art.
If you get a chance head over and check his sites out.
I have to admit, I sort of knew the differences; but, didn’t fully understand the UK. Well, this video does the job and then some. Enjoy this good video that explains it all . . .

The other day I stumbled upon a really good Linux optimization package of Ubuntu 11 – the nice thing about this is the pre-setup of many media and office tools just to name a few.
If you’re new to Linux or like me, just hate spending hours trying to get things to work after an install, head over to Pinguy OS and check them out. This will make a great fresh install or work off of a live CD.
All of the JimsJump soundboards have been removed from this site and Android Market.
One in particular (the most popular) was decommissioned by external request. As a mode of self preservation, the remaining soundboards were also removed voluntarily.
As always, thank you for the support, comments, and positive feedback.
Last night Machine Screws Drill/Tap Info reached the all important 500+ download mark. All I can say is Wow! And thank you for your support!
I’m running a little behind on the 2.0 update, but look to have something soon, goal this weekend, but it will be tight.
Thank you again!

Late last night I published my 3rd Android Application – Jim’s Date Calc.
As a project engineer / project manager I needed an easy to use and accurate date calculator.  I didn’t find the simplicity and ease of use I wanted in the Android Market so I created one!
Also since I work on a 9/80 work schedule, being able to know how ‘off-Fridays’ impact available working days was a must functionality I included.  Additionally, Jim’s Date Calc’s calculations match those expensive project scheduling applications everyone uses on their desktops.  Be sure to pick your copy in the Android Market or App Brain today!
Here are some screen shots of Jim’s Date Calc.

I recently added localization (multiple languages) my Android application, while I’m still less than 50 downloads, it was refreshing to see buyers already from Korea and Norway! Wow.
