About me
32-year-young afro-american male human living on planet Earth in a city called Richmond in the state of Virginia of the Unites States. So with the demographics out of the way, I could say I've been described as a walking paradox of sorts.

I'm a handsome man married to a gorgeous and jaw-droppingly intelligent woman who, on the daily, enriches my stay on planet far beyond what I'd experience on my own.

Usually when I'm not with my wife, I'm working. I'm a database administrator and application developer on the week days. I'd like to claim that I'm furthering the enhancement of our global society, but truth be told, I pay my bills by working for money making corporations which could never be directly tied to social enhancement. Oh well, at least I did work for a biotech firm for 3 years.

I enjoy many different types of music as you can see on my Last.fm profile. I also enjoy gaming and photographing things I find interesting, which you can see on my Flickr account. And am really trying to find ways to enjoy the web.
Why I use Clipmarks
I use Clipmarks to track information that I find interesting and to leave my notes about that information. I also use it to find interesting information/opinions that the Clipmarks community finds interesting.

And now that I can post a clip to my blog, I've begun to use Clipmarks as a convenient way of collecting the pieces of content that I want to be part of my blog post. This is a very powerful feature in my opinion.

 I don't even know why I was trying to do =<... I guess it's because I'm used to using BETWEEN more than <= >=. At any rate, this may come in handy in the future.

 I wonder if our implementation of MVC is faulty? Was it described to us incorrectly and therefore we used it wrong? Why'd we use it? I saw in one of the earlier sentences that "many user interface frameworks implement the roles as one object." I think that would have been a lot more natural in our environment since we were writing a Windows Forms application. But then too, because we already have the View and Controller already separated, maybe it will make the application easier to port to a web app.

POPSMVC class structure overview

 So one of my goals, lately, is to come to grips with what the Model/View/Controller pattern is really all about. It was introduced to me a couple of years ago when a colleague of mine created the shell for our royalties application. I didn't understand the pattern very well and it wasn't really explained to us very well in the context of our application. So, I've always felt that I didn't have a good understanding of where to put my code. Myself and the other primary developer worked with the shell as best we could. I'm sure there's code in places where it should be moved elsewhere, but we had to really focus on making the application work rather than strictly follow the pattern. I've always been agitated at the fact that I didn't understand the pattern. I've wanted to go back and learn the pattern so we could refactor the application. So now I'm reading up on the pattern and this is the first of my notes.
