After much thought over the past few weeks I’ve come to the realization that I’m not satisfied with the design of this site. I suppose my aforementioned Designatitus has kicked in once again and the designer in me has decided to do a complete overhaul of this site, including:
1. Code from scratch instead of relying on Movable Type templates as a basis to the design. Granted, using templates to build from is fine but it’s like making a cake from fresh ingredients — in the end it just tastes better.

My wife and I will be going to a screening of Passion of the Christ this Saturday. Despite the controversy stemming from the reported anti-semitism the movie itself looks like an intense piece of cinematic history.
The film depicts the last 12 hours of Jesus Christ’s life which portrays the capture, torture and crucifiction. Reports indicate that Gibson chose this particular time frame in order to focus attention on the sacrifice and early screenings and previews state that Gibson’s intentions have been successful.
Chicago-Sun Times critic, Roger Ebert describes Passion as “the most violent film I have ever seen.” He also concludes that this is a film you will either love or hate and presumably form your own interpretation of whether the experience was worth the viewing.

Portals, also known as the gateways to various dimensions in time, have been used numerous amounts of times in Hollywood productions. Their appeal lies in the intrigue of time travel - a concept that mankind wishes they had a grasp of. Yet as episodes of Outer Limits and The Simpsons including movies like The Butterfly Effect suggest; changing aspects of time will lead to a dramatic cause and effect situation.

One of the most difficult aspects of designing is taking that first step: when you know what style you would like to achieve, but you just don’t know where to start. We’ve all been there at one time or another, thinking to ourselves “what colors should I use?”, “what fonts would work best?”, and “what are some elements of the style I want?”
