Amazing Circuit Build and Simulation Java Applet

Ran across this Java applet today.

You can build electronic circuits and simulate them. You can also throw in a scope and measure voltages across any point in the circuit. What a great tool!

Adopt-a-Highway June 28th, 7AM.

Saturday June 28th will be the first Adopt-a-Highway trash pickup day. This is an important day as we will be judged for our Adopt-a-Highway sign. Bad job = no sign and a waste of our time. So I’m asking all the students, mentors, friends etc come out and help us pick up trash. I will be at the intersection of Guilford St. and US-24 at 0700. I get lonely so please come out. I will have two coolers, of ice, for any drinks you might want to bring. Also please wear boots, (long pants) or an old pair of sneakers, as we will be picking up trash in the tall grass. Also bring a good pair of gloves.
If you have any questions or if any of the mentors/parents want to bring a cooler of ice, please contact Wayne.
