[UPDATE : The Archdiocese of St. Louis now has an immense post with more links, pictures, quotes, etc. View it here . ]

This year's CNMC MMX (Catholic New Media Convention 2010) was bigger and better than last year's convention; the venue had excellent WiFi access, there were even more Catholic media/new media representatives, and the atmosphere was generally more lively and exciting (mostly due to the great number of amazing people).

按摩女郎

連日來schedule爆滿, 見星期六下午無約, 去了銅鑼灣按腳, 順便按頭肩頸.
按摩師是一位率直多話的傻大姐. 她不知道我是誰.
見我按腳時睡著了, 沒有打擾.
按頭肩頸時我痛得哇哇叫, 睡不著, 她隨即變為開籠鳥. 按到我掌心時無

其實一直是我搞錯了

塵埃在我後面蕩漾 蕩漾過後墜落地上

wordpress 刪除sql文章版本和垃圾

在funtion.php加入 就可以隱藏wp版本 Remove the WordPress Generator Meta Tag: if ( function_exists( 'wp_generator' ) ) { remove_action( 'wp_head', 'wp_generator' ); }

當頭棒喝

Cook 說有興趣看看我不久前完成的書稿,我把書稿電郵給他後不出兩天,他便回覆說已讀了頭兩章;這沒甚麼的,但他接著說的可要命了:「你的英文有問題,過兩天我到你家裏跟你談談吧!」(他以前看過我的兩三篇期刊論文,

My personal Linux environment is so customized that I'messentially indifferent to what the distribution does with its desktopenvironment (the usual point of contention for ordinary users); thingslike Gnome and KDE choices and which of the latest peculiar system for managing bits


The joy of debugging other people's programs

There is a peculiar joy that is probably more common among sysadminsthan programmers: the pleasure of having successfully debugged someoneelse's program.

Lino Rulli's Keynote Presentation on "doing things right" in Catholic Media
