Birthday celebration and gift ideas?

Rosy

Hi,
It is my best friend's birthday next week and I want to surprise him. I don't want to have a surprise party because he doesn't like to be the center of attention and to avoid embarrassment. I just want him to have a good time and to make him feel special.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to make his day special without too many people involved? Also, I do like him a lot which he knows. I am planning to bake him a birthday cake. Any more ideas?

Thanks.
I forgot to add, he is going to be 29.

Answer
Well since he is going to be 29 that means he is very mature and a surprise party probably won't be something he would like to much especially since he does not like being the center of attention. How about if you do something private with him. You could take him out to see a play that showing. (if he is into stuff like that) You could also take him to the beach or the river to go swimming and have lunch. You could invite a couple of his friends to go along with you guys and just spend the day together

As far as a gift is concerned you should try shooting for something homemade a fun. You could get a plain- tshirt and decorate it yourself with things he likes to say. You could make him a gift basket of his favorite candy, or make a mixed cd of songs he loves. Here are more homemade gift ideas you can check into for inspiration http://www.giftgrease.com/homemade-gifts.html You can also look at these birthday gift ideas to see if he may like something on this list http://www.giftgrease.com/birthday-gift-ideas.html This is all I have for now. Hope this helps. Good Luck gift-shopping.

birthday gift ideas do it yourself image

elio305

I was thinking about making a photo and video collage for a lady friend I'm interested in taking to a another level with. The photo collage would have pictures of her and her with her lady friends through the years, as well pictures of me and her together. The video would have alot of her close friends wishing her a Happy Birthday or explaining how much she mean to them...Would that be a good Birthday gift? If not can you suggest some to me? Thank You!

Answer
If you had little time, you can try a cute card with sweet sayings by yourself...
With the card maker tool, you can quickly transform your digital photos into a stunning card that make heart happy! After you've designed the birthday card, print them free in full color at home.

P.S. If you had much time, you can try a photobook that is made up of serials of cards. I think this is the present that is sure to be cherished for years to come.

Can a wireless adapter be built from scratch without software?

slayerquie

I'm running an experiment with a friend of mine involving long range communication, and I got the idea that perhaps as part of the process I should try to build my own wireless adapter. Mainly because I've been enjoying the hell out of scratch-making whizbangs and blinky things lately (thanks to Arduino of course, best-birthday-gift-EVER). Is there an easy way to just "brute force" it mechanically, as it were, or would it require a lot of custom programming as well? Normally I'd just buy a cheap adapter and take it apart to see how it works, but most of the project is running on junk, and I'm barely going to have enough for the remaining tools and supplies our junk pile doesn't cover, so that's not really in the cards. I'm certainly not a tech genius, but I know enough to make use of most schematics fairly easily. If any simple schematics exist, or anyone can give me even a "verbal" rundown of what would be necessary to hand make a wireless radio, I'd be most appreciative of the help. By the way, it doesn't have to be optimized by any means. At the moment, I've got a small bit of leeway with resistors, wire, and whatnot, so it's really just to get hands-on experience with the fundamental working order of the device on the construction level, as that particular field is sorely lacking in information compared to how much is posted online about signal propagation, etc. I just need a basic, garage-project rundown of what bone's connected to the wireless bone as it were to get me started. If it would end up costing more to build and program one than just to buy one, just say so, but if anyone can get me started, I really enjoy hands-on projects, and I've been learning quite a bit recently. I'd like to keep the roll going if there are any hidden geniuses among you. Schematics are preferred, if possible. Patented products will NOT be duplicated, only studied if that's what it takes. I'll accept ANY help.

P.S. Proof-reading this, I suddenly realize how the post sounds, so let me say it up front - no, I'm not planning on using it to steal wifi XD

I've got high-speed of my own. I just like playing with power tools and building stuff, even if it breaks on me later. No feeling quite like looking at a functioning, engineered object of one sort or another, and being able to say YOU made it. Some of you will understand that better than others.

Answer
No. There has to be a software user interface and firmware to tell the hardware what to do and when to do it.

There's nothing to prevent you from designing and assembling your own hardware but at some point you'll have to import existing software or design it yourself, and as firmware is far more fundamental to the hardware profile you'll have to design that from scratch. Not at all easy even for the companies which do it all the time, as evidenced by the regular software & firmware patches they have to release even on completed consumer-release versions of the hardware.
