Georgia Tech Basketball vs FSU Recap
Since the Final Four run, men's Georgia Tech basketball has been tough to watch. Georgia Tech came into the FSU game having beaten Duke, North Carolina, and Clemson. Not bad. Actually, pretty awesome!
Then the FSU game happens. Frustrating.
Some articles recapping Sunday's game:
- Kuiper’s 3-Pointer: FSU-Georgia Tech - Denny Kuiper points out GT has no go-to scorer and how it impacts late-game scoring, and getting turnovers is pointless if you can't turn them into points.
- Florida State 68, Georgia Tech 66: Postgame thoughts - Andrew Carter talks about FSUs great defense (Lawal and Favors combined for 15).
- FSU Making Noise in Heated ACC Race - Jim Henry points this out: "FSU 7-foot-1 center Solomon Alabi, who patiently shoots 100 free throws each day in practice, calmly made two free throws with 22 seconds remaining to lift the Seminoles into the lead for good at 67-66."

House Theme Song - Teardrop by Massive Attack
Trying out the QuickMix on Pandora on the iPhone, I came across a song that seemed quite familiar. Then I realized it was the theme song to the awesomous maximus tv show House.
The song is Teardrop, by Massive Attack, on the Mezzanine album.

Handbrake iPhone Batch Conversions
So I finally broke down and bought an iPhone recently. Over Christmas, I'm planning on driving down to Florida, and I'll be needing some entertainment. Like a lot of folks, I've backed up my DVDs to AVIs so I can watch them on my laptop on the go. Handbrake is a phenomenal tool for trancoding media to different formats. It comes with a whole queuing system to help do batch conversions, but its still tedious if you are trying to convert more than a few.
Thats where HandbrakeCLI comes in. Like the name references, HandbrakeCLI is a command line tool for doing the transcoding. The funny thing is, I assumed if I had already installed Handbrake, it must have installed HandbrakeCLI as well. WRONG. HandbrakeCLI is a separate download. Grab it from the Handbrake download page and install it.
To make it easy, drop all the files you want to convert into one folder. Fire up Terminal, change to the directory where all the original AVIs are. Type the following command:
apply '/Applications/HandBrakeCLI -i %1 -o %1.mp4 --preset="iPhone & iPod Touch" ' *.avi
Basically, apply lets your run a command on a set of input data. The *.avi is the input data, which lists all the files in the current directory. The apply command takes each of the files names returned by *.avi and runs the HandBrakeCLI string with it, replacing the %1 with the filenames. The -i tells HandBrakeCLI the input file, the -o says what the output or resulting files should be named, and the --preset tells HandbrakeCLI the format the output file should be in.
Thats pretty much it.
