Gimp
The past few days, I have been trying to learn more about “the Gimp.”:http://www.gimp.org/ I’ve used it since I installed Linux Red Hat 9 last September, but hadn’t done much more than cropped and resized photos, and adjust the colors a bit. I’ve found a lot of tutorials of varying quality on the web, but so far have been most pleased with Grokking the GIMP – Learning Advanced Image Editing Techniques.

Fedora Core 2 Test Release 1
Fedora Core 2 Test Release 1 is now available from the Fedora Project. Although I am interested in the 2.6 kernel, featured in this release, I think I may wait for Release 2.
Minus 7 Degrees Fahrenheit
This is the coldest it has been in several years.
Official US Time
NIST maintains a site that gives the official U.S. time using a Java application. It looks as there are some other interesting exhibits on this site as well. For some reason I haven’t investigated yet, my computer is not synching correctly to a network time server, so I decided to find an online clock.
Morning fog
Some winter mornings it is clear here, and still foggy in the valley below and to the east of us. The bright square is our neighbor’s window.
