Incredibly high quality Quicktime stabilized version of the infamous Zapruder assassination footage. Hoax or no? Either way the video is absolutely unreal and a must see. Caution: Extremely graphic.

I’ve always had a fascination with the JFK assassination. I don’t know why. I just have. And when I saw this I thought “Hey, this proves that there was another shooter…” But then, I read some of the other links, and they provide some very interesting counterpoints.

An entire website claiming that the Zapruder film was a haox created by the government to appease the public. Amazingly interesting read. I was skeptical at first, but it has some good points.

Another website with a lot of information about the JFK assassination. I haven’t read a lot of the stuff on this site, but it has some pretty interesting reading from what I can tell.

I’ve added to a few of the sections on the site. The Design section of the site has taken the most abuse. I decided to put up a history of my web development career, which is a first. There is one site I created before anything that is listed there, it was the original www.the8thdimension.com but I lost the files when I switched site hosts, so that design is lost in oblivion.

As for all the other sites, they are still fully functional and are hosted on Brinkster servers. Brinkster was my old host before I switched to x10hosting. Hopefully I’ll remember to keep that old account active so they don’t delete my stuff.

History lesson : It all started when I was teaching a HTML course at a summer camp in 1999. The students needed a example to see, so I whipped up an old, very dark, www.the8thdimension.com. That site, as I said, doesn’t exist anymore, but it was later transferred to a new host and redesigned.

I kept that site for about a year, after which I was employed by a friend to create a website for his new business. Well, his business never made it off the ground and I was stuck with an empty layout. I decided to sell my design services and created Xidell Systems. That gradually changed from a entrapenurial site to a whatever-the-hell-I-felt-like site.

Of course Xidell Systems is an odd name for a personal site, so I redesigned it to Eightcubed. You can search the sites for what that means, but I kept that moniker for a while. It lasted through 3 designs.

There was then a Version 2 which I developed and relied heavily upon ASP to do so. The layout is based off another site I had seen on the web, and liked. That design was a success and I kept that site the longest.

Eventually, I thought I wanted to redesign the site so I made a couple layouts that flopped as replacements but one I decided to keep and jointly maintain as a blog of mine. That would be Eightcubed Blog. :-0 That started out as a soapbox, turned into a wailing wall, then finally into a normal this-is-stuff-I-care-about blog.

I inevitably got tired of that and realized that I was in need of a new host. Brinkster was good, but didn’t have PHP(without paying for it). And I really wanted to start developing in PHP. I stumbled across x10hosting and found my savior. The site you are currently looking at was created completely from scratch and designed and coded by myself. I decided to try a themed website with a blog system incorporated into it. I settled on WordPress and got to modifying the existing code into a WP Theme. So, the end result is what you are looking at. WordPress wrapped in a custom theme. I doubt all the bugs are worked out, so it may be a little bit before it’s perfect, but hey! WHO CARES!?!

Oh, P.S. I was doing a little late night browsing yesterday and stumbled across some pretty nifty stuff:
